This paper presents the experimental investigations conducted on a vertical closed loop pulsating heat pipe (VCLPHP) to evaluate the thermal performance. The values of thermal resistance and heat transfer coefficient obtained in the experimentation is used as evaluation parameters. The VCLPHP used has capillary tubes having an inner diameter of 2mm and outside diameter 3mm and bent into 5 turns...

some drugs have low bioavailability due to their poor aqueous solubility and/or slowdissolution rate in biological fluids. stiripentol (stp) is a novel anticonvulsant drug that isstructurally unrelated to the currently available antiepileptics. it has poor aqueous solubilityand its solubility has to be enhanced accordingly. polyethyleneglycol 6000 (peg-6000) iscommonly utilized as a hydrophilic...

Based on the Cahn-Hilliard free energy, a thermodynamic model for a reactive binary mixture of incompressible and miscible fluids is derived with a distributed form of surface tension. The model describes chemistry, diffusion, viscosity and heat transfer as well as stresses produced by (and at right angles to) concentration gradients. It allows for a rich spectrum of processes and some of these...

a simple and reliable method for quick estimation of the dielectric constant of a binary solvent mixture is proposed. the validity of the proposed method has been tested for a broad range of binary solvent mixtures

We apply lattice Boltzmann methods to study the relaxation of the velocity profile in binary fluids under shear during spinodal decomposition. In simple fluids, when a shear flow is applied on the boundaries of the system, the time required to obtain a triangular profile is inversely proportional to the viscosity and proportional to the square of the size of the system. We find that the same be...

Experimental characterization of the dynamics of multicomponent fluids is a problem of general importance to the field of complex fluids. We demonstrate a new experimental approach, termed two-color Fourier imaging correlation spectroscopy, which allows direct measurement of the partial dynamic structure factors, S(11)(k,tau), S(22)(k,tau), and S(12)(k,tau), where 1, 2 label the component speci...
