Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) is one of the most popular methods for producing Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs). The growth rate of CNTs based on CVD technique is investigated by using a numerical model based on finite volume method. Inlet gas mixture, including xylene as carbon source and mixture of argon and hydrogen as carrier gas enters into a horizontal CVD reactor at atmospheric pressure. In thi...

This paper presents an analytical review of data on the interaction of volatile corrosion inhibitors with the atmosphere, vaporization processes, methods of experimental and computational estimation of the vapor pressure of organic compounds, and effects of vaporization conditions and compound structure on vapor pressure.

Kusaka correctly points out that his Eqs. ~1! @Eq. ~39! in Ref. 1# and ~2! @Eq. ~43! in Ref. 2# are equivalent. Hence, the statement in Ref. 2 that Nishioka and Kusaka ‘‘arrived at a different expression for the work of embryo formation’’ is incorrect. Our misunderstanding stemmed from a failure to properly translate the notation of Ref. 1 into our own language. At the outset, however, we point...

net photosynthesis rate (pn), stomatal conductance (gs) and transpiration rate (e) of anise hyssop were measured during the four cloudless days, in reference to diurnal fluctuations of leaf temperature (tleaf), leaf vapor pressure deficit (vpd leaf) and photosynthetic photon flux density (ppfd) in well watered (ww), stressed (s) and recovered (r) plants. an analysis of measured data showed that...

It was recently shown that vapor-liquid coexistence densities derived from Mie and Yukawa models collapse to define a single master curve when represented against the difference between the reduced second virial coefficient at the corresponding temperature and that at the critical point. In this work, we further test this proposal for another generalization of the Lennard-Jones pair potential. ...

Vapor pressures in the range of 256 to 331 K and saturated liquid and vapor densities from 315 to 331 K have been measured for difluoromethane (HFC-32) on the saturation line by means of variable volume and static experimental methods. Our results have been combined with literature values, and on the basis of all the measurements, accurate analytical correlations for saturated liquid and vapor ...

The vapor pressures of the major congeners in commercial polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixtures (Kanechlors; Kanebuchi Chemical Industry, Tokyo, Japan) have been experimentally determined by Knudsen mass loss effusion. We obtained vapor pressures for the individual PCBs in the crystalline solid, liquid, and subcooled liquid forms as a function of temperature. We derived the thermodynamic param...

The relative drying rate of samples (RDR), which is the ratio of the drying rate of pretreated samples to that of untreated ones, might be used as a tool to investigate the damage to cells of agroproducts induced by high-pressure treatment. Damage to cells induced by high pressure was estimated by comparing the RDR after high-pressure pretreatment with the RDR after chloroform-vapor, heat, and ...
