Title: Phase transformations in metastable liquids combined with polymerization

Abstract

Here, we report on the theory of nucleation and growth of crystals in a metastable polymer melt with allowance for the polymerization of a monomer. A mathematical model consisting of the heat balance equation, equations governing the particle-radius distribution function and the polymerization degree is formulated. The exact steady-state analytical solutions are found. In the case of unsteady-state crystallization with polymerization, the particle-size distribution function is determined analytically for different space–time regions by means of the Laplace transform. Two functional integro-differential equations governing the dimensionless temperature and polymerization degree are deduced. These equations are solved by means of the saddle-point technique for the evaluation of a Laplace-type integral. The time-dependent distribution function, temperature and polymerization degree at different polymerization rates and nucleation kinetics are derived with allowance for the main contribution to the Laplace-type integral. In addition, the general analytical solution by means of the saddle-point technique and an example showing how to construct the analytical solutions in particular cases are given in the appendices. The analytical method developed in this paper can be used to describe the similar phase transition phenomena in the presence of chemical reactions.

Parameterizations of Cloud Microphysics and Indirect Aerosol Effects

Technical Report Tao, Wei-Kuo

1. OVERVIEW Aerosols and especially their effect on clouds are one of the key components of the climate system and the hydrological cycle [Ramanathan et al., 2001]. Yet, the aerosol effect on clouds remains largely unknown and the processes involved not well understood. A recent report published by the National Academy of Science states "The greatest uncertainty about the aerosol climate forcing - indeed, the largest of all the uncertainties about global climate forcing - is probably the indirect effect of aerosols on clouds [NRC, 2001]." The aerosol effect on clouds is often categorized into the traditional "first indirect (i.e.,more »« less

Radiation and porosity effects on the magnetohydrodynamic flow near a vertical plate that applies shear stress to the fluid with mass diffusion

Journal Article Khan, Arshad ; Khan, Ilyas ; Shafie, Sharidan - AIP Conference Proceedings

This article studies the radiation and porosity effects on the unsteady magnetohydrodynamic free convection flow of an incompressible viscous fluid past an infinite vertical plate that applies a shear stress f(t) to the fluid. Conjugate phenomenon of heat and mass transfer is considered. General solutions of the dimensionless governing equations along with imposed initial and boundary conditions are determined using Laplace transform technique. The solution of velocity is presented as a sum of mechanical and non mechanical parts. These solutions satisfy all imposed initial and boundary conditions and reduce to some known solutions from the literature as special cases. Themore »« less

A boundary element model of cathodic well casing protection

Journal Article Lee, S H ; Townley, D W ; Eshun, K O - Journal of Computational Physics; (United States)

An efficient boundary element method was developed to study cathodic protection of a well casing in a formation with layered conductivities. Even though the electrical potential in soil is governed by the linear Laplace equation, electrochemical reactions at the well casing introduce complex, nonlinear boundary conditions. Furthermore, the complexity of boundary geometries makes the numerical computation nontrivial. Use of Green's function allows a general solution of the Laplace equation to be expressed in the form of a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. The present formula employs a fundamental solution that eliminates the discretization of the top ground surface.more »« less

HEAT TRANSFER IN THERMAL RADIATION ABSORBING AND SCATTERING MEDIA

Technical Report Viskanta, R.

The problem of heat transfer from media that absorb and scatter thermal radiation was studied analytically, and the theory of thermal radiation is presented in a form useful for application to the radiant heat transfer problems. The basic equation of radiant heat transfer which governs the radiation field in a media that absorbs, emits, and scatters thermal radiation was derived. The mathematical analogy between thermal radiation and neutron transport is pointed out, and a few illustrations of the applicability of the solutions obtained for neutron transport problems to the radiative transfer problems are given.

Primitive models of chemical association. III. Totally flexible sticky two-point model for multicomponent heteronuclear fixed-chain-length polymerization

Journal Article Lin, C ; Kalyuzhnyi, Y V ; Institute for Condensed Matter Physics, Svientsitskoho 1, 290011Lviv ; ... - Journal of Chemical Physics

A multidensity integral-equation theory for polymerization into freely jointed hard-sphere homonuclear chain fluids proposed earlier [J. Chem. Phys. {bold 106}, 1940 (1997)] is extended to the case of multicomponent heteronuclear chain polymerization. The theory is based on the analytical solution of the polymer Percus{endash}Yevick (PPY) approximation for the totally flexible sticky two-point (S2P) model of associating fluids. The model consists of an n-component mixture of hard spheres of different sizes with species 2,{hor_ellipsis},n{minus}1 bearing two sticky sites A and B, randomly distributed on its surface, and species 1 and n with only one B and A site per particle, respectively.more »« less
