A new computational single-droplet drying model is presented. The model considers heat and mass transfer simultaneously together with the receding evaporation front approach. A spherical droplet under constant drying conditions is considered. Computations are performed to predict the drying of colloidal silica-water suspension and skimmed milk. It is shown that the results agree well with those of experimental observations available in the literature.

DETERMINATION OF MOISTURE DIFFUSIVITY AND BEHAVIOR OF TOMATO CONCENTRATE DROPLETS DURING DRYING IN AIR
KARATAS, S; ESIN, A (Informa UK Limited, 1994-01-01)
The drying mechanism and diffusion coefficient of water in spherical droplets (1.73 - 2.08 mm diameter) of tomato concentrates were successfully interpreted and modelled by using Fick's law. Solids content of the initial concentrate (5-15% w/w), and drying temperature (60-degrees - 100-degrees-C) were varied but the drying air was kept at constant velocity and humidity.
Potential Energy Surfaces for Vibrational Structure Calculations from a Multiresolution Adaptive Density-Guided Approach: Implementation and Test Calculations
Sparta, Manuel; Hoyvik, Ida-Marie; Toffolı, Danıele; Christiansen, Ove (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2009-07-30)
A multiresolution procedure to construct potential energy surfaces (PESs) for use in vibrational structure calculations is developed in the framework of the adaptive density-guided approach. The implementation of the method allows the construction of hybrid PESs with different mode-coupling terms calculated with a variety of combinations of electronic structure methods and basis sets. Furthermore, the procedure allows the construction of hybrid PESs that incorporate a variety of contributions and correction...
Phase behavior of beta-D galactose pentaacetate-carbon dioxide binary system
Dilek Hacıhabiboğlu, Çerağ; Gulari, Esin (Elsevier BV, 2006-01-31)
Phase behavior of beta-D galactose pentaacetate-carbon dioxide binary system is investigated by dew-point and bubble-point measurements conducted in a high pressure variable volume sapphire cell. The phase envelope for solutions of beta-D galactose pentaacetate in supercritical M is obtained for beta-D galactose pentaacetate concentrations between 2 and 26 wt%, and for the temperature range of 308-323 K. The system exhibits lower critical solution temperature (LCST) behavior and high solubility of beta-D ga...
Bright Visible Light Extraction from Amorphous Silicon Nitride Heterojunction Pin Diode
ANUTGAN, TAMİLA; ANUTGAN, MUSTAFA; ATILGAN, İSMAİL; Katircioglu, B. (The Electrochemical Society, 2011-01-01)
We report the transformation of an ordinary hydrogenated amorphous silicon nitride based heterojunction pin diode into a strong visible light emitting electroluminescent device. This forming process (FP) comprises Joule heating induced crystallization during the application of sufficiently high forward bias to the fresh diode. FP starts at an arbitrary point and continues until the accompanying visible light is uniformly emitted from the whole diode. This remarkable phenomenon is presented by real-time phot...
THERMAL AND MASS DIFFUSIVITY FROM DYNAMIC SINGLE PELLET EXPERIMENTS
DOGU, G; CABBAR, C; Doğu, Timur (Informa UK Limited, 1991-01-01)
The single-pellet moment techniques previously developed for the evaluation of effective diffusion coefficient and effective thermal conductivity of a porous solid are combined and a procedure is proposed for the simultaneous evaluation of these constants from a single set of pulse response experiments. It is shown that both temperature and concentration response curves can be measured from a single pulse of oxygen injected into hydrogen carrier gas flowing past a catalyst pellet. It is shown that the zerot...
