Experimental study on the Mode l fracture toughness of frozen silty clay incorporating Digital image correlation

To investigate the effects of initial moisture content and temperature on the Mode I fracture toughness (KIc) of frozen silty clay, a series of three-point bending tests were conducted. Rectangular specimens with prefabricated cracks were tested, and digital image correlation (DIC) technology was employed to analyze the microscopic characteristics at the crack tip. The results indicate that the Mode I fracture toughness of frozen silty clay increases with decreasing temperature and increasing initial moisture content. Temperature governs the failure mode, with plastic failure predominantly occurring at high temperatures and brittle failure at low temperatures. Based on the load–displacement curves and DIC recordings, the macroscopic fracture process of the specimens can be categorized into three stages: elastic deformation, formation of the failure surface, and specimen failure. Additionally, the crack propagation process can be further divided into three stages: initiation and development of microcracks, transition from microcracks to macroscopic cracks, and rapid development of macroscopic cracks. These findings provide critical insights for slope stability research in cold regions and offer new perspectives for engineering design and construction in similar environments.

The effects of NH3 pre-cracking and initial temperature on the intrinsic instability and NOx emissions of NH3/bio-syngas/air premixed flames

The study of the combustion characteristics of NH₃/bio-syngas/air under NH₃ partial cracking and elevated initial temperatures can enhance its feasibility as a practical fuel. The effects of NH₃ cracking rates (ζ) and initial temperature (T0) on the laminar burning velocity (SL), instability, and NO emissions of NH₃/bio-syngas/air premixed flames under different equivalence ratios are investigated. The results indicate that increasing ζ and T0 enhances the SL of the premixed flame, with ζ having a more pronounced effect on combustion enhancement. Virtual gas analysis reveals that pre-cracking primarily strengthens combustion through chemical effect. An increase in ζ significantly shifts the peak SL towards the fuel-rich region, while at any T0, the peak SL consistently occurs around Φ = 1.1. Increasing ζ and T0 reduces the critical radius (rc) and the critical Peclet number (Pec) of the premixed fuel, with rc decreasing more rapidly when ζ is below 30 %. The dimensionless growth rate (∑) increases with the rise in ζ and T0, consistently remaining positive, indicating an unstable state. Additionally, ∑ varies more significantly with T0 when T0 is below 450 K. When ζ is below 60 %, the NO mole fraction increases with the increase in ζ. However, at ζ = 80 %, the NO mole fraction is lower than at ζ = 40 %. Increasing T0 continually increases the NO mole fraction. Analysis of the NH3 reaction pathways indicates that NHi (i = 0, 1, 2) is closely related to the NO → N2 reduction reactions.

The combustion mechanism of aluminium in the steam/carbon dioxide mixed atmosphere

AbstractThe ignition and combustion characteristics of aluminium (Al) in the steam/carbon dioxide (H2O/CO2) mixed atmosphere were calculated by using a close homogeneous catch reactor and premixed laminar flame‐speed of CHEMKIN‐PRO. The effects of initial reaction temperature and H2O/CO2 ratios on the system temperature, products, and ignition delay time were explored. The main reaction paths were analyzed by the temperature sensitivity. Al (l) entered the system with a pronounced phase transition and only one heating stage, but there are two heating stages in the Al (g) system. The reaction of Al in the H2O/CO2 mixed atmosphere has a positive effect on the ignition delay time of the system. The high contents of CO2 in the H2O/CO2 mixed atmosphere can increase the maximum temperature of system and decrease the ignition delay time. Temperature sensitivity analysis shows that AlO, Al2O, and AlOH are important intermediate products, and Al2O2 is the main substance that produces Al2O3. The dominant reaction path is Al → AlOH→AlO → Al2O → Al2O2 → Al2O3. In addition, when the initial temperature was 2300 K, the laminar flame velocity was calculated to reach 35.6 m/s.

Acquisition Study of Downhole Explosion Limit in Air Drilling

Summary Downhole explosions adversely affect air drilling; however, the explosion limit can facilitate the adjustment of the flow rate to prevent downhole explosions. The downhole explosion limit, comprising lower and upper limits, can be determined through diverse methodologies. In this study, the interrelation between absolute enthalpy and adiabatic flame temperature (AFT) enabled the deduction of the lower explosion limit (LEL) prediction method, and an equilibrium between heat generation and heat transfer formed the basis for the upper explosion limit (UEL) prediction method. Additionally, a variable-volume apparatus was established to measure the explosion limit and adjust the pressure precisely without changing the amount of gas. The explosion limit of methane in the air was determined using both predicted and experimental methods, mirroring the scenarios of natural gas entering the wellbore during air drilling. The theoretical model exhibited the same reliability as the experimental results, and the prediction method for the explosion limit proved more efficient. Moreover, the effects of initial temperature and pressure on the explosion limit are discussed. The LEL decreased by an average of 15.5% when the initial pressure increased from 0.1 MPa to 2 MPa, while the UEL experienced a significant increase by an average of 152%. The UEL exhibited a logarithmic dependence on the initial pressure. The effect of the initial temperature on the explosion limit was noticeably less pronounced than that of the initial pressure. This study provides the essential theoretical basis and experimental results for avoiding downhole explosions during air drilling.

Future Global River Ice in CMIP6 Models under Climate Change

Abstract River ice changes due to climate change significantly impact river hydrology, economies, and societies. This study employed the CMIP6 data and a river ice model to predict global river ice changes in response to climate change. Results indicate significant declines in global river ice due to global warming. With each 1°C increase in surface air temperature (SAT) in the future, river ice extent of ice-affected rivers decrease by 2.11 percentage points, and ice duration shorten by 8.4 days. Under the shared socioeconomic pathways 2-4.5 (SSP2-4.5) scenario, the long-term mean SAT is 1.2°–2.5°C higher than in the near term. This leads to a 1.9–4.4-percentage-point decrease in global river ice extent, a 6.8–15.1-day decrease in river ice duration, and ice-free rivers increasing by up to 4.02%. The SSP5-8.5 scenario predicts a warmer long-term mean SAT, leading to greater reductions in river ice. Geographically, river ice loss is most notable in North America, Europe, Siberia, and the Tibetan Plateau (TIB), particularly in peninsular, coastal, and mountainous regions due to the combined effects of initial temperatures and temperature increases. Overall, the eastern Europe (EEU) shows the greatest loss of river ice on average. Monthly analyses show the most substantial decreases from October to June, indicating pronounced seasonal variability. This study provides valuable insights for addressing challenges related to river ice changes in high-latitude and high-elevation regions. Significance Statement River ice has a significant impact on various aspects, including hydrology, ecology, and the economy. The ongoing global warming phenomenon has resulted in a decline in river ice. This ice acts as a barrier, affecting river gas exchange and influencing the metabolism of the river, which is crucial for regulating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The primary objective of this research is to examine the response of river ice to future climate change. The outcomes of this study will play a role in estimating future GHG emissions and understanding river metabolism, as well as providing a valuable reference for tackling emerging challenges in resource acquisition in high-latitude and high-altitude regions.

Frozen Saline Sand Can Be Highly Permeable

AbstractMass transport in frozen ground is typically regarded slow. However, a highly permeable path can exist in frozen saline sand if the unfrozen water is interconnected at the pore scale. We therefore should consider when the unfrozen water is connected and how permeable can frozen saline sand be, yet there are few studies. This research utilizes in‐situ X‐ray CT to evaluate unfrozen water connectivity and permeability in frozen saline sand considering effects of initial salt content, temperature, freezing rate, and temperature gradient. Results show that higher initial salt content and/or temperature, both of which results in a higher unfrozen water content, easily maintains unfrozen water connectivity. Rapid freezing minimizes the brine expulsion and permits a higher unfrozen water content hence better connectivity. Permeability in frozen saline sand can be several orders higher than the typically reported value, highlighting the potential presence of rapid mass transport through the connected unfrozen water.

The effect of initial pressure and temperature on the flow in a three-dimensional cavity filled with paraffin/Cu nanostructure with a wavy lower wall and a movable upper wall using molecular dynamics simulation

Phase change materials (PCMs) are very suitable for the storage of thermal energy. Heat transfer plays a crucial role in many important industrial processes in today's industrial environment. Thus, it is crucial to examine and comprehend this occurrence properly. This work uses molecular dynamic simulation to examine the effect of initial pressure (IP) and temperature (Temp) on the thermal efficiency of phase change materials inside a three-dimensional cavity. The hollow contains paraffin/Cu nanoparticles and has a bottom wall with a wavy shape and an upper wall that can be adjusted. The results of the equilibration stage indicated that the kinetic and potential energies converge to 2100 eV and -95472.50 eV after 10 ns. Next, the results show that increasing IP resulted in the reduction of maximum velocity and Temp, which decreased from 0.0099 Å/ps and 898 K to 0.0090 Å/ps and 888 K. Furthermore, the results show that by increasing IP, the heat flux and thermal conductivity decrease from 9.95 W/m2 and 1.45 W/m.K to 8.89 W/m2 and 1.26 W/m.K. Conversely, as the initial Temp rose from 300 to 350 K, so did the velocity (0.0125 Å/ps) and Temp (990 K). Furthermore, the thermal conductivity and heat flux increased to 1.69 W/mK and 11.25 W/m2, respectively. This study reveals how molecular dynamics simulations provide insights into the effects of initial pressure and temperature on the flow and thermal behavior of a paraffin/copper nanostructure. The findings improve understanding of nanofluid and phase change material behavior, aiding the design of more efficient PCM-based systems for thermal energy storage and heat transfer applications. In general, the results of this research illuminate the complex relationship among IP, Temp, and thermal properties of phase change materials. This knowledge is of great significance as it can guide the formulation of novel approaches to enhance the thermal efficiency of these materials in practical applications.

Effect of Initial Temperature and Pressure on the Explosion Characteristics and Intermediate Reaction Products of Formic Acid Mixtures: A Theoretical Study

Formic acid is a promising candidate fuel that can be produced by reacting renewable hydrogen with carbon dioxide. However, the burning safety characteristics of formic acid–air mixtures have not been fully studied. This paper presents an extensive theoretical study of the adiabatic explosion pressure of formic acid–air premixed laminar flames at various initial conditions (composition of formic acid: 17–38% volume; initial pressure: 0.1–1.5 bar; initial temperature: 333–500 K), using the GASEQ software package. GASEQ software calculates chemical equilibria based on ideal gas behavior and is based on the hypothesis of adiabatic expansion inside a closed containment that allows ideal expansion. The influence of the initial conditions (pressure, temperature, and concentration) of formic acid–air mixtures on the adiabatic explosion pressures, maximum flame temperature, and peak concentrations of the main reaction intermediates is investigated and discussed. It is found that the adiabatic peak explosion pressure (calculated equilibrium pressure) of the studied concentrations decreases with increasing initial temperature and increases linearly with increasing initial pressure.

The Effect of Mixture Variation and Initial Temperature On the NH2* Thickness of Spherically Propagating Laminar Ammonia Flames

Abstract Interest in ammonia (NH3) in combustion has increased recently as a carbon-free fuel alternative. Understanding its combustion characteristics is crucial. One way to increase knowledge of ammonia combustion is by investigating the flame zone of a laminar flame. Using a high-spatial-resolution flame zone measurement technique developed by the current research group, the flame zone of different NH3-containing mixtures was measured experimentally. These measurements were achieved by investigating spherically propagating flames using a chemiluminescence imaging diagnostic with a focus on NH2* profiles. The effect of the fuel mixture on the profile shape was examined by investigating two different mixtures: an oxy-ammonia mixture consisting of NH3 + oxygen-enriched oxidizer with varying O2 concentrations from 25% to 40%, and a blend of NH3-H2 with NH3 concentrations (XNH3) varied from 0.5 to 0.8. Additionally, the effect of the initial temperature was investigated by varying it from 293 to 373 K. In all investigated mixtures, the initial pressure was fixed at 1 atm and the equivalence ratio at 1.0. The study revealed that increasing the O2 concentration in the oxy-ammonia mixture produced thinner flames, while increasing XNH3 in the NH3-H2 blend produced slightly thicker flames. Varying the initial temperature had different effects: it thinned the flame in the oxy-ammonia mixture and NH3-H2 blend, but slightly thickened the flame in the H2-NH3-N2 blend. The predicted NH2* profile thicknesses from chemical kinetics agreed with measurements, except for the H2-NH3-N2 blend.

The effect of initial temperature on the mechanical strength of tricalcium phosphate/Chitosan/Silica aerogels nanocomposites using molecular dynamics simulation

BackgroundChitosan is an organic polymer derived from chitin, showcasing commendable biocompatibility and biodegradability, while tricalcium phosphate emerges as an active ceramic with proven biocompatibility and superior compatibility with bone tissue. This composite material, endowed with a unique amalgamation of attributes including biocompatibility, porosity, and mechanical strength, proves highly applicable in diverse fields such as tissue engineering, drug delivery systems, wound repair, and as scaffolds for cell proliferation in regenerative medicine. MethodsThe focal point of this study is an exploration of the nuanced interplay between the mechanical properties of silica aerogel/chitosan tricalcium phosphate nanocomposites with increasing initial temperature. Employing molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, the research aims to unveil the temperature-induced variations in the critical properties. Significant FindingsThe results reveal that the ultimate strength and Young's modulus values are determined to converge to 772.28 MPa and 62.291 GPa, at 297 K. As the initial temperature escalates from 300 to 350 K, the US decreases from 72.28 to 714.47 MPa. The decrease in US could be due to higher temperatures, the increased thermal energy can lead to greater atomic vibrations within the material, which can promote easier dislocation movement and result in reduced resistance to deformation. The results reveal that as temperature increases to 320 K, YM increases to 67.134, and with further increase in temperature, YM decreases to 62.865 GPa

Ultrasonic demulsification treatment is essential to dehydrate refinery sludge with complex composition, high water content, and demulsification difficulty. Herein, the influencing factors and the demulsification mechanism are studied in oily sludge treatment.

Design and performance optimization of solar pyrolysis reactor for organic impurities in waste salt

The efficient removal of organic impurities in waste salt is significant for its recycling and environmental protection. In present paper, a solar pyrolysis reactor is proposed by integrating the parabolic trough concentrator (PTC) and solar reactor (SR). The results demonstrate that organic impurities react completely in 1290.7 s, and the thermal efficiency is up to 89.90 % at the initial temperature of 293.15 K and the reactor radius of 32 mm. However, the temperature difference (ΔT) in reactor is over 110 K. Based on this, the effects of initial temperature and reactor radius on pyrolysis results are explored. To improve the uniformity of temperature distribution and pyrolysis performance, a new pitchfork-shaped fin has been designed. Compared with no fins, the ΔT and reaction time are reduced by 54.99 % and 24.36 %, and the thermal efficiency is improved by 6.47 %. In comparison to traditional star-shaped fins, the ΔT is reduced by 13.1 %. Then, to further enhance the comprehensive performance of pitchfork-shaped fins, optimization on fin structure parameters is performed and validated. After optimization, the ΔT and reaction time are further reduced by 10.27 % and 2.3 %. The present work demonstrates that the PTC-SR is feasible for the efficient removal of organic impurities in waste salts, which is significant for the recycling and utilization of waste salt.

Effects of equivalent ratio and initial temperature on the explosion characteristics of ethanol, acetone, and ethyl acetate

In this paper, the effects of equivalence ratio (0.8–2.0) and temperature (30°C–120°C) on ethanol, acetone, and, ethyl acetate vapors explosion characteristics through experimental and numerical studies were investigated. The explosion overpressure and flame propagation velocity were recorded through the pressure transducer and high-speed camera. The results showed that the flame propagation velocity, peak explosion overpressure, and peak growth rate of explosion overpressure increased first and then decreased with the increase of equivalence ratio. The cracks on the flame surface enhanced with the increase of the equivalence ratio. As the initial temperature increased, peak explosion overpressure, the flame propagation velocity, and peak growth rate of explosion overpressure gradually increased. The sensitivity analysis of laminar burning velocity indicated that with the change of equivalence ratio and initial temperature, the shared elementary reactions that increased the reactivity were H + O2 <=> O + OH, HCO + M <=> H + CO + M, and CO + OH <=> CO2 + H, and the shared elementary reaction that reduced the reactivity was H + OH + M <=> H2O + M. The main factor affecting laminar burning velocity was the mole fraction of H and OH radicals.

Green adsorption of quinoline as basic N-compounds from liquid fuel using mesoporous and Fe-functionalized walnut shell-activated carbon

Removing nitrogenous compounds from liquid fuels is essential, and adsorption de-nitrogenation is a new process for this goal. This work has the purpose of investigating quinoline adsorption using Iron functionalized Activated carbon (IFAC) mesoporous nanocomposite. The mesoporous nanocomposite was synthesized in a one-step process by chemical activation of the walnut shell using Iron chloride as the activation and modification agent. The IFAC mesoporous nanocomposite was utilized to remove quinoline from isooctane as the liquid fuel via a discontinuous (batch) process by examining the effect of initial concentration, contact time, and temperature. The effect of contact time on the adsorption ability of IFAC for quinoline was well described by the pseudo-second-order model. The Langmuir model described the equilibrium manner of the process well, and the adsorbent could retain 344.82 mg/g of quinoline (37.37 mg N/g). The thermodynamic parameters show the endothermic (ΔH°= +30.070 kJ/mol) and spontaneity of the adsorption process. The regeneration experiments indicated that functionalized AC’s adsorption ability for quinoline adsorption decreased by 23% after five cycles. The obtained data indicate that the functionalization of activated carbon surface with iron particles leads to improving its adsorption ability toward N-containing compounds from liquid fuels.

Adsorption and estimation of As (III) from wastewater using cross linked Chitosan-STPP nanoparticles with voltammetric analysis computrace, isotherms, and kinetic study

Chitosan (CS) is a naturally occurring polycationic linear amino polysaccharide produced commonly through the deacetylation of chitin. This study describes the synthesis of Chitosan (CS) modified with sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) using an efficient coated Cross-linked method. The study investigated the efficacy of chitosan-tripolyphosphate (CS-STPP) nanoparticles for the efficient adsorption of As (III) ions from a wastewater solution. The effect of initial Arsenic (III) ion concentration, solution pH, and temperature on adsorption efficiency was thoroughly investigated. The highest adsorption capacity of CS-STPP nano adsorbents for As (III) was found to be 39.8 mg/g and 39.6 mg/g, respectively, at pH 5.5, and a temperature of 30 °C. The FESEM, SEM, HRTEM, XRD, FTIR, DLS, and TGA results indicated that the adsorption process of As (III) was chemically dominating. As (III) Determine with the anodic linear sweep voltammetry 797 VA Computrace (Metrohm). The Langmuir parameters of 40.9 mg/g and 1000 L/mg were found for maximum adsorption capacity, which indicated monolayer adsorption on a homogeneous site, Freundlich isotherm is applicable for multilayer adsorption onto heterogeneous sites. The thermodynamic study showed that the adsorption of As (III) by CS-STPP was spontaneous, feasible, and exothermic at temperatures ranging from 30 °C to 50 °C. The kinetic model indicated that the adsorption processes persist well to the pseudo-second-order kinetics model. The reaction is suitable for a pseudo-second-order model, it indicates an inclination for chemisorption. Adsorption-desorption processes are determined efficiency of bio adsorbent by several physicochemical cycles. All results indicate that the prepared CS-STPP nanoparticles might be considered a cost-effective adsorbent for removing As (III) from wastewater.

Numerical simulation study of the effect of different factors on supercritical CO2 BLEVE

Abstract Global warming is harmful to the environment and CO2 is one of the major greenhouse gases. CCS-EOR technology can increase oil production and sequester CO2. During the storage and transportation of high-pressure CO2, BLEVE may occur. In this study, the dynamic pressure parameters in the supercritical CO2 BLEVE process were numerically simulated by using numerical simulation, and the effects of initial temperature and initial charge on the dynamic pressure parameters in the supercritical CO2 BLEVE process were mainly discussed. By thoroughly investigating the dynamic pressure of BLEVE of supercritical CO2, we can better understand and predict the conditions under which such accidents occur, and further improve the safety of industrial processes.

Biotransformation of Chlorpyrifos Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 in the Presence of Goethite: Experimental Optimization and Degradation Products.

In this study, the degradation system of Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 and goethite was constructed with chlorpyrifos as the target contaminant. The effects of initial pH, contaminant concentration, and temperature on the removal rate of chlorpyrifos during the degradation process were investigated. The experimental conditions were optimized by response surface methodology with a Box-Behnken design (BBD). The results show that the removal rate of chlorpyrifos is 75.71% at pH = 6.86, an initial concentration of 19.18 mg·L-1, and a temperature of 30.71 °C. LC-MS/MS analyses showed that the degradation products were C4H11O3PS, C7H7Cl3NO4P, C9H11Cl2NO3PS, C7H7Cl3NO3PS, C9H11Cl3NO4P, C4H11O2PS, and C5H2Cl3NO. Presumably, the degradation pathways involved are: enzymatic degradation, hydrolysis, dealkylation, desulfur hydrolysis, and dechlorination. The findings of this study demonstrate the efficacy of the goethite/S. oneidensis MR-1 complex system in the removal of chlorpyrifos from water. Consequently, this research contributes to the establishment of a theoretical framework for the microbial remediation of organophosphorus pesticides in aqueous environments.

Enhancing Cr (VI) Adsorption of Chestnut Shell Biochar through H3PO4 Activation and Nickel Doping.

A high-efficiency nickel-doped porous biochar (PCNi3) has been successfully synthesized from chestnut shell waste via a two-step chemical activation treatment with H3PO4. The influences of microstructure, surface morphology, elemental composition, surface functional groups, specific surface area, porosity, pore-size distribution, and chemical properties of the surface state on the removal of Cr (VI) from water were thoroughly investigated by using XRD, FESEM, FTIR, Raman, BET, and XPS testing methods, N2 adsorption, and XPS testing techniques respectively. The results indicate that the treatment of H3PO4 activation and nickel doping can effectively improve microstructure characteristics, thus promoting Cr (VI) adsorption capacity. The effects of initial solution pH, solution concentration, time, and temperature on remediation are revealed. The Cr (VI) uptake experiments imply that the adsorption curves of PCNi3 fit well with the Freundlich model, the pseudo-second-order kinetic model, and the Elovich model. The adsorption process of PCNi3 can be regarded as a spontaneous endothermic reaction limited by diffusion among particles and porosity. The adsorption mechanisms of PCNi3 are ion exchange, complexation, electrostatic adsorption, and coprecipitation with the assistance of surface active sites, porosity, Ni0 particles, and Ni7P3. With these advantages, PCNi3 reveals an extraordinary Cr (VI) removal capacity and a strong ability to reduce Cr (VI) to Cr (III).

Effect of temperature on the mechanical properties of aluminum polycrystal using molecular dynamics simulation

The initial temperature has a considerable effect on aluminum polycrystals' physical stability and mechanical performance, with the possibility to optimize their mechanical properties for practical applications. Thus, using a molecular dynamics technique, the effect of temperature on the mechanical properties of aluminum polycrystals is studied. Stress-strain curves, ultimate strength, and Young's modulus were all measured at temperatures of 300, 350, 400, and 450 K. The findings from MD simulations show that the initial temperature significantly affects the physical stability and mechanical performance of designed aluminum polycrystals. The aluminum polycrystal experiences a numerical increase in ultimate strength and Young's modulus from 6640 to 74.072 to 7.055 and 79.226 GPa, respectively, when subjected to the optimal initial conditions of 350 K. With further increasing temperature to 450 K, ultimate strength and Young's modulus decrease to 6.461 and 74.413 GPa, respectively. The observed decrease in ultimate strength and Young's modulus of the aluminum polycrystal as the temperature increased from the optimal condition of 350 K–450 K can be attributed to the weakening of interatomic attraction forces at higher temperatures. This reduction in interatomic bonding strength resulted in decreased material stiffness and resistance to deformation, leading to lower ultimate strength and Young's modulus values. This study's novelty lies in its comprehensive assessment of the initial temperature's effects on the mechanical performance of aluminum polycrystals, providing valuable insights for practical applications and advancing beyond previous efforts in the literature.
