Role of Different Catalysts on a Direct Growth Carbon Nanotube for Supercapacitor Electrodes

Supercapacitors are engaged in the search for efficient electrode materials to convene hybrid vehicles’ utility requirements and renewable energy sources. State-of-art supercapacitors have relatively low energy density, although they have high power density and cyclic life. Carbon nanotubes are a one-dimensional nanostructure with hollow graphite layers in cylindrical shape. The production of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is carried out via laser ablation and arc discharge method; nevertheless, the chemical vapor deposition method is one of the highly reliable methods of all. In this study, CNTs are synthesized by the decomposition of acetylene (C2H2) on different metallic catalysts of nickel (Ni)-, cobalt (Co)-, and iron (Fe)-deposited Ni foam substrate. In particular, the reaction temperature, flow rate of carrier and precursor gas, and processing time effect are optimal in the formation of crystalline size and structure. These parameters improve the yield of carbon sequestration. The resultant Fe catalyst-deposited CNT possessed high specific capacitance of 2.5 F/cm2 at 1 A/g and showed 99.25% capacitive retention for 10,000 cycles. A symmetric supercapacitor CNT-Fe//CNT-Fe was assembled, and the device had high energy densities of 37.30 W h/kg@1 A/g and high power densities of 599.91 W/kg@1 A/g in aqueous electrolyte. Furthermore, the resultant symmetric device exhibited 91.53% capacitance retention with a 99.25% coulombic efficiency over 10,000 cycles.

Evaluasi Kapasitas Saluran Drainase Sekunder di Jalan Kapten Pattimura Telanaipura Kota Jambi Menggunakan Software Hec-Ras

One of the areas in Jambi City that experience drainage system problems are the Telanaipura area, precisely on Jalan Kapten Pattimura. The area around the research site is a densely populated area and there are several shopping centers, restaurants, and a fairly high road user. When there is a large rain or rain for a long enough time, this area is often flooded with water as high as 0.2 - 0.8 meters which can cause quite a lot of losses for local residents and also for business owners in the area. From this, it can be said that the drainage channel at this location is less than optimal for collecting and draining rainwater discharge. In this case, it is necessary to conduct a study of hydrological analysis and hydraulics analysis of the drainage channel which is useful in helping to solve the problems that occur. This study used hydrological data in the form of monthly rainfall for the past 10 years and the geometry of secondary drainage channels on Jalan Kapten Pattimura Telanaipura. The method used in this study is in the form of hydrological analysis with the maximum rainfall method, gumbel, and calculation of plan discharge with a rational method. This Hydraulic analysis carried out uses the help of the HEC-RAS program to simulate the discharge of water flow in the drainage. Based on the results of the analysis, it can be concluded that the secondary drainage channel of Jalan Kapten Pattimura, Telanaipura District, Jambi City, cannot accommodate the flow discharge of the plan for periods 2, 5, and 10 years. This is due to sedimentation, high rainfall, suboptimal drainage channels in accommodating flow discharge, and the presence of piles of garbage. The solution to this problem is to deepen the dimensions of the drainage channel by 40–135 cm deep.

Single-step synthesis of Mn3N2, MnxON and Mn3O4 nanoparticles by thermal plasma arc discharge technique and their comparative study as electrode material for supercapacitor application

In the present study, single-step synthesis of single-phase manganese nitride (Mn3N2), mixed phase manganese oxynitride (MnxON) and manganese oxide (Mn3O4) nanoparticles (NPs) was carried out using the thermal plasma arc discharge (TPAD) method. The experiments were carried out using nitrogen (N2), ammonia (NH3) and oxygen (O2) gas atmospheres at different plasma powers 2, 4 and 6 kW. The phase and elemental compositions of the prepared nanoparticles were examined using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) analysis. All the synthesized powder samples have nearly spherical morphology, which are determined by using Field Emission Scanning Microscopy (FE-SEM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) analysis. The surface area of the prepared NPs was investigated using Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis, and the obtained results are 40.1, 19.4 and 11.8 m2g−1 for Mn3N2, MnxON and Mn3O4 NPs respectively. The Mn3N2 NPs showed superior storage performance with an outstanding specific capacitance of 508.4 F/g at 1 A/g with pseudocapacitive behavior compared to the mixed and oxide NPs 335.1 and 150 F/g respectively. The Mn3N2 electrode exhibited higher cycling stability with 84.2% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles at a current density of 5 A/g. These results demonstrated that the plasma-prepared single-phase Mn3N2, which is used as a potential electrode material for supercapacitors applications.

Synthesis of Graphite-Encapsulated Ni Micro- and Nanoparticles Using Liquid-Phase Arc Discharge

In this work, the synthesis of nickel particles encapsulated in a few-layer graphene shell was carried out using the method of electric arc discharge in the liquid phase, in various media: deionized water, alcohol, and toluene. Nickel and graphite were used as electrodes. The study was carried out to analyze how various liquids, acting as a cooling medium and a source of carbon, affect the formation of a protective shell around metal particles. Raman studies, analysis of X-ray diffraction data, and scanning electron microscopy confirmed the formation of spherical encapsulated nickel particles in all types of liquid media. It was found out that the use of toluene as a cooling medium increased the number of particles with a graphite shell and allowed obtaining micro- and nanoparticles covered with monolayer graphene. The absence of oxygen in the composition of toluene, in contrast with alcohol and especially water, prevents the oxidation of nickel particles during the synthesis. This fact, along with the initial basic hexagonal carbon structure of toluene, makes it a good medium for the formation of metal particles covered with a protecting graphite shell as a result of arc discharge in the liquid phase.

Introduction: SARS-CoV-2 is a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus with a high pathogenicity to humans. In order to properly diagnose and monitor individuals who have COVID-19 pneumonia, a chest CT scan is essential. In numerous researches, radiographic alterations in the acute course of COVID-19 have been observed. These changes range from mild to severe cases. According to recent studies, 94% of hospitalized patients' discharge CT scans show persisting lung parenchymal abnormalities. With this perspective present study is conducted to evaluate follow up CTndings in Post COVID 19 infection. Aim & Objectives: Aim:To evaluate follow up CTndings in Post COVID 19 infection Objective: 1. To assess clinical prole and CTndings in Post COVID 19 infection patients with brotic changes found on CT 2. To assess clinical prole and CTndings in Post COVID 19 infection patients with no brotic changes 3. To correlate clinical prole and CTndings amongst two groups 4. To assess & correlate CTndings amongst timely performed CTscan at 3 and 6 months after discharge Materials and Methods: 100 COVID-19 patients who had been discharged from the hospital after treatment for COVID-19 were prospectively enrolled at follow up visit. Discharge chest CTscan were reviewed. All 100 patients advised follow-up CTscan of thorax at 3 and 6 months from the Time of discharge. All CT reports were evaluated and patients were categorized into two groups based on presence or absence of traction bronchiectasis, parenchymal bands and/or honeycombing as Group A(Cases with brotic changes) and Group B (Cases without brotic changes). Data are expressed as frequency N (%) or mean ± SD. χ2-test was used to study correlation between variables Observations and Results: Majority had bilateral lung involvement in both groups. Ground glass opacity dominated in CTpattern. Other CTndings were less in proportion in group B (35/71) compared to group A (27/29). Statistically signicant difference found for CT score amongst two groups (P< 0.00001). About 29 (29 %) cases out of total 100 (100 %) showed brotic changes. 22 (22 %) showed Residual GGO/interstitial thickening. 49 (49 %) got complete radiological resolution at the end of 6 months Conclusion: All patients with dyspnoea after SARS-CoV-2 infection should undergo a thorough thin-section CT. Depending on the degree of initial lung involvement and the length of time since infection, certain CT abnormalities are more or less common. According to longitudinal investigations, GGO can be replaced by abnormalities that resemble brosis, and abnormalities may linger in patients who have recognised risk factors.

The Design of Calibration System Based on Cable Accessories

In today’s society, people can’t live without electricity. During the operation of power equipment, there may be various potential safety risks. In particular, partial discharge is easy to occur at the terminal. If people can not deal with the problem of partial discharge in time, equipment continue to live.Setting can cause security, so the electric power industry staff attaches great importance to the local discharge monitoring problem.Ultrasonic technology is better so it is gradually into the application of partial discharge detection.But the ultrasonic detection technology is to detect the intensity of ultrasound, and our traditional method is to measure the discharge of partial discharge method, Therefore, in order to obtain the relationship between ultrasonic intensity and partial discharge, the following experiments are made.

After fitting, the linear relation is obtained and the quality inspection of PD detector is completed.It can make the detection effect of partial discharge detector more complete, and provide the basis for the quality inspection of the detector, This system also provides a strong support for the wide application of ultrasonic partial discharge detector.

Transient interactions between bubbles and a high-speed cylinder in underwater launches: An experimental and numerical study

The underwater launch of high-speed vehicles involves complex bubble-structure interactions, which are not currently well understood. In this study, two small-scale experiments are carried out involving transient bubble-cylinder interactions. We adopt the underwater electric discharge method to generate a high-pressure bubble that drives a cylinder to a maximum velocity of about 25 m/s within 1 ms. A tail bubble forms as the cylinder is ejected from the launch tube. Moreover, we observe a shoulder cavity around the head of the cylinder due to the pressure reduction in the flow. To better understand the complex interaction between bubbles and the high-speed cylinder, we use the boundary element method to establish a bubble-structure interaction model. Our numerical model reproduces the experimental observations quite well, including the cylinder motion and the transient evolution of the bubbles. Thereafter, a systematic study is carried out to reveal the dependence of the bubble-cylinder interactions on the initial pressure of the tail bubble P0. We obtain a scaling law for the maximum velocity of the cylinder with respect to P0. The findings from this study may provide a reference for subsequent research into underwater launches.

Controllable Preparation of Ge/Cu Composite Porous Microspheres as High‐Performance Anode Materials for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Germanium (Ge) has great advantages as a cathode material for lithium‐ion batteries, but its application in the anode of lithium‐ion batteries is limited by its volume expansion and poor electrical conductivity. Currently, nano‐Ge and composite Ge are the main research directions. Using Ge/copper (Cu) alloy as raw material, herein, pulse discharge and chemical etching method are adopted to prepare a kind of Ge/Cu composite porous microsphere (Ge/Cu@PMS). A 3D conductive network structure is obtained to increase the conductivity of Ge and alleviate the volume expansion of lithium‐ion battery during charge and discharge. As an anode material for Li‐ion batteries, Ge/Cu@PMS has a capacity retention rate reaching 590 mAh g−1 after 200 constant current charge–discharge cycles at a current density of 800 mA g−1, with a capacity retention rate of 79.1%. Therefore, Ge/Cu@PMS has great potential application in lithium energy storage‐related technologies due to its excellent energy‐storage performance and ease of preparation.

Electrical properties of adhesives designed for smart debonding by a pulsed discharge method

ABSTRACT Facile techniques are required for the debonding of polymeric adhesives from metals for material recycling. A promising solution is a pulsed discharge debonding method. In this approach, a pulsed discharge with a high voltage is applied to the system over a short time. Rapid expansion of gasified materials and shock-wave emissions are produced from the discharge passage, which results in debonding. A drawback of the conventional pulsed discharge method is that it must be conducted in water, otherwise, the pulsed discharge creeps along the material surface without destroying the adhesion. In this study, filler was added to the structure adhesive for the effective pulsed discharge debonding of metal adherend. Epoxy resins with fillers of carbon black, copper and barium titanate particles were fabricated, and their properties and adhesive strength before and after application of the pulsed discharge were investigated. We succeeded in introducing the pulsed discharge inside the adhesive by adding 3.4 vol% of carbon black to the epoxy adhesive; the rapid expansion of gasified adhesion that was caused by the discharge, resulted in debonding. The threshold volume fraction of carbon black for effective pulsed discharge inside the adhesive was discussed based on the percolation model with experimental data.

Nanostructured γ-Al2O3 Synthesis Using an Arc Discharge Method and its Application as an Antibacterial Agent against XDR Bacteria

In the last few years, many efforts have been devoted to investigating the antibacterial activity of metal nanoparticles, especially against multidrug-resistant bacteria. Recently extensively drug-resistant (XDR) bacteria have emerged and caused a global threat. The purpose of this manuscript was to synthesize nanostructured γ-Al2O3 as an antibacterial agent against some XDRs. The results showed that Al2O3 was a mix of rod and spherical shapes in the nano range with diameters of less than 30 nm. The zeta potential was determined to estimate the surface charge for the synthesized γ-Al2O3, which was recorded as −34 ± 1.8 mV, indicating good stability. The synthesized nanostructured γ-Al2O3 showed a potent antibacterial activity against extensively drug-resistant Acinetobacter baumanii, with an inhibition zone diameter that reached 19 mm and a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) value that reached 2 µg/mL. The observed antibacterial activity of the prepared Al2O3 nanoparticles confirmed that the main mechanistic actions include bacterial cells apoptosis, ROS increment, cellular membrane disruption, and DNA damage. The cytotoxic effect (CC50) of the prepared γ-Al2O3-NPs was 1250 µg/mL in a normal human lung fibroblast cell line (WI-38 cells). It can be concluded that the synthesized γ-Al2O3 had an acceptable toxicity, which may pave the way for its use as a potent agent in the fight against XDR bacteria.

Continuous charge management scheme for TianQin

TianQin is a proposed Chinese space-borne gravitational wave detection mission, which will consist of three earth-orbiting spacecraft in equilateral triangle constellation. Due to the ‘3 months on + 3 months off’ observation scheme, the continuous scientific observation period of TianQin is much shorter than LISA, it is highly preferred that other on-board operations, such as charge management, will not interrupt gravitational wave detection. This paper presents a torsion pendulum system on the ground to investigate the continuous discharge method in detail. It is found that the difference in surface characteristics between the test mass and the surrounding housing is the most critical to the success of continuous discharge method. Consequently, the effect of this difference on the continuous discharge process was evaluated in ground simulation experiments, and based on the research results, we also proposed a more feasible spatial continuous charge management strategy for TianQin.

Long-Period Fiber Grating Based on Side-Polished Optical Fiber and Its Sensing Application

A novel side-polished long-period fiber grating (LPFG) sensor was proposed and experimentally validated. Side-polished can provide a stronger evanescent field than traditional grating and bring superior sensitivity. The greater the side-polished depth, the higher the refractive index (RI) sensitivity. When <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$d = 44\,\,\mu \text{m}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> , the RI sensitivity reached 466.85 nm/RIU in the range of 1.3330–1.3580, which is fourfold higher than the LPFG prepared by the electric-arc discharge (EAD) method. A graphene oxide (GO) nano-film is coated on the LPFG to make it realize high sensitivity relative humidity (RH) sensing. Humidity sensitivity reached −0.193 nm/%RH in the range of 40%–80% RH. In addition, side-polished breaks the symmetry of the distribution of the cross-sectional light field, which determines the ability to achieve vector curvature measurement. It shows good sensing performance in the same/opposite bending direction as the side polished surface. When the input light polarization is 90°, the average sensitivity reaches 5.03 and −5.9 nm/ <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\text{m}^{-1}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> in the range of 0–19.67 <inline-formula xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$\text{m}^{-1}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> , respectively. This strongly indicates that the fabricated sensors show high sensitivity, low-cost materials, and robust performance and break the limitations of the EDA method to prepare gratings, which have good application potential for biomedicine and the field of construction.

Analysis of carbon nanotube for low power nano electronics applications

In the area of nanotechnology, carbon nanotubes are a notable and remarkable invention. Its structure is much similar to the structure of graphite. CNTs are small in size, light in weight, have good strength, and have good conductivity, making them the building blocks of futuristic new technologies. CNTs have promised to be the catalyst for the next revolution in technology. A broad range of processes are available to produce various types of CNTs, depending on the rolling times of graphite sheets. In this paper, different types of CNTs, their properties, ways of synthesis such as the arc discharge method and chemical vapor deposition, and application have been covered. Outlining their respective advantages and challenges. SWCNTs exhibit high carrier mobilities and tunable bandgaps, making them suitable for transistor devices and interconnects in integrated circuits. DWCNTs offer enhanced mechanical stability and electrical conductivity, catering to applications in flexible electronics and energy storage devices. MWCNTs, though lacking distinct properties of SWCNTs and DWCNTs, find utility in composites, sensors, and biomedical devices due to their ease of synthesis and lower cost.

Method for releasing carbon foils from substrates

The performance of a carbon foil (C-foil) as a charge stripper in an accelerator is directly affected by its condition and quality. C-foils are fabricated by evaporating carbon onto a substrate. Therefore, a suitable technique must be established for depositing and removing C-foils from substrates. The selection of appropriate releasing agents is crucial for the removal process. C-foils with thicknesses less than 0.1 mg/cm2 were produced using the arc discharge method, wherein chloride materials were used as releasing agents. The magnetron sputtering method is suitable for manufacturing C-foils thicker than 0.1 mg/cm2 using appropriate releasing agents, such as fluorine-based or silicon-based agents. The contact angle analysis demonstrates a negative relationship between the C-foil thickness and the wettability of the substrate treated with an appropriate releasing agent. The possibility of using ionic liquids as novel releasing agents is also investigated.

EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF THE INTERACTION BETWEEN A BUBBLE AND A POROUS PLATE

This paper aims to experimentally investigate the interaction between a bubble and a plate with multiple holes. The bubble is generated under the plate by underwater electric discharge method, and the top surface of the plate is flush with the water-air interface. In order to reveal the bubble dynamics and the droplets formation caused by bubble oscillation, the interaction process is recorded by high-speed photography. Similar to the interaction between bubble and plate with a single hole, there exist two jets, the primary slow jet and the secondary fast jet, caused by bubble expansion and collapse, respectively. The former starts to be pumped out as liquid columns and breaks up into fine droplets over time, while the latter erupts directly as droplets with more instability. As the distance between bubble and porous plate decreases, the speed of droplets increases and the velocity difference in droplets through different holes becomes greater. Besides, with the longer oscillation time the bubble is less likely to detach from the plate, and its maximum volume will be larger than expected. The effects of plate thickness and hole diameter on bubble dynamics and droplets formation are also investigated. Increasing the plate thickness and decreasing the hole diameter make the porous plate have a similar effect as the rigid wall. In this case, the bubble tends to migrate to the plate and inside the bubble, a jet toward the solid boundary will be generated. The amount of liquid being squeezed out through holes is reduced and the liquid columns are more likely to break up into sprays. In contrast, decreasing the plate thickness and increasing the hole diameter enhance the effect of free liquid on the bubble dynamics. Also, the efficiency of the oscillating bubble to pump liquids has increased.

Comparative Study of Flood and Long-term Mean Monthly Flow Estimation Approaches: Case Studies of Six Basins in Nepal

&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D; Most of Nepal's river basins have poor hydro- meteorological databases, with several river basins being ungauged. Thus, hydrological parameters need to be estimated using different types of computation methods. The primary goal of this study is to identify the most accurate method for calculating peak flood and long-term mean monthly flow among the most commonly used methods in Nepal. We compared the peak flood calculated using various flood computation formulas, such as Hydest, Modified Hydest, MHSP (Medium Hydropower Study Project) 1997, Modified Dickens, PCJ (Prem Chandra Jha) 1996, Rational, and Specific Discharge, to the flood calculated using gauged discharge data frequency analysis. We find that it is wise to use the Modified Hydest method in the khokana basin for all Return Periods (RPs) and in the Belkot basin (for RP ≤ 100 years), the Specific Discharge method in the Jamu basin, the MHSP 1997 method in the Belkot basin (for RP ≤ 100 years) and the Bagasoti Gaun basin (for RP ≤ 20 years). The PCJ 1996 method having the lowest cumulative value of Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) for the six studied catchments is suitable for Rabhuwa Bazar (for RP &gt; 50 years) and Bagasoti Gaun (for RP &gt;20 years). Similarly, the Modified Dickens method is suitable in the Bagasoti Gaun basin for RP ≤ 50 years. This paper also shows the performance of the Hydest and MHSP 1997 mean flow estimation methods and suggests different coefficients or constants to be used with the MHSP 1997, Modified MIP (Medium Irrigation Project), and Hydest methods to obtain more reliable long-term mean monthly flows. Overall, our study will help the designer choose a reliable method for design flow estimation. This study also shows that the flow obtained from even the most suitable methods needs to be adjusted. As a result, intensive research is required to adjust previous methods and develop the new one.&#x0D; &#x0D; &#x0D;

Numerical simulation of atmospheric-pressure surface dielectric barrier discharge on a curved dielectric with a curvilinear mesh

A numerical simulation method for atmospheric-pressure surface dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) is presented using a structured curvilinear mesh that is fitted to a curved dielectric surface. The numerical method is based on the plasma fluid model with general coordinate transformation, which is widely used in the field of the computational fluid dynamics. The calculations of a potential distribution formed by a line electrode and a planar surface DBD are performed to confirm the validity of the proposed method. We conducted numerical simulations of the DBD on a wavy surface using the proposed method to investigate the characteristics of the DBD on a curved surface. The propagation velocity of the discharge front and the electric field strength of the discharge front changed depending on the surface shape. The proposed method enables the calculation of the DBD on a complex surface and widens the application range of the numerical simulation in the field of discharge physics.

Preparation and Electrochemical Performance Analysis of Flexible Ionic Polymers by Freeze-Drying Technology

With the development of bionics and marine science, a new artificial muscle material, IPMC (ion-exchange polymer metal composite), has attracted significant attention. However, the performance issues, as well as problems associated with the preparation of IPMC, have limited its development. In this study, we use the freeze-drying technique, successfully creating a new type of enhanced carbon nanotube IPMC material. Moreover, we also use the method of cyclic voltammetry, ac impedance, and the constant current charge and discharge method to analyze and evaluate the multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)-reinforced IPMC produced by freeze-drying technology. Freeze-dried IPMC has a higher moisture content, which is 1.58 times higher than that of ordinary IPMC. The pore and multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) in the ion exchange membrane are distributed more homogeneously. The technology prepared by IPMC has superior electrical performance. Under a 2 v scanning interval and a scanning speed of 50 mV/s, its specific capacitance can reach 247.5335 mF/cm−2, which is 24 times that of normal IPMC. Under the same conditions, its conductivity can reach 0.29391 mS/cm, far higher than that of ordinary IPMC. Furthermore, the preparation process is also safer. This method provides a new strategy for the future preparation and usage of IPMC.
