Nanofluids are advantageous due to their superior thermophysical properties compared to base fluids. Increasing nanoparticle concentration increases thermophysical properties. However, viscosity enhancement results in increased pressure drop and pumping power requirement in the flow channel, which may limit the potential nanofluid applications. Because nanofluids is a relatively new subject, complexity of the nanofluid systems and nanofluid viscosity being affected by many parameters make the subject even more complicated. When literature is overviewed, lack of a general model for nanofluid viscosity is observed. In this study, nanofluid viscosity was investigated and given viscosity models were compared based on some effective parameters.

Bacterial microorganisms have developed numerous and diverse systems to handle potentially detrimental acidic conditionsintheir external environment. In particular, some pathogenic and other nonpathogenic enteric bacteriahave a number of exceptionaland well-organized acid resistance (AR) mechanismsthat work together to counter intracellular acidification and damage and enable survival under the extreme acidic conditions of the mammalian stomach.

Accurate formation energies of charged defects in solids: A systematic approach
Vinichenko, Dmitry; Sensoy, Mehmet Gokhan; Friend, Cynthia M.; Kaxiras, Efthimios (2017-06-30)
Defects on surfaces of semiconductors have a strong effect on their reactivity and catalytic properties. The concentration of different charge states of defects is determined by their formation energies. First-principles calculations are an important tool for computing defect formation energies and for studying the microscopic environment of the defect. The main problem associated with the widely used supercell method in these calculations is the error in the electrostatic energy, which is especially pronou...
Highly Stable, Near-Unity Efficiency Atomically Flat Semiconductor Nanocrystals of CdSe/ZnS Hetero-Nanoplatelets Enabled by ZnS-Shell Hot-Injection Growth

Colloidal semiconductor nanoplatelets (NPLs) offer important benefits in nanocrystal optoelectronics with their unique excitonic properties. For NPLs, colloidal atomic layer deposition (c-ALD) provides the ability to produce their core/shell heterostructures. However, as c-ALD takes place at room temperature, this technique allows for only limited stability and low quantum yield. Here, highly stable, near-unity efficiency CdSe/ZnS NPLs are shown using hot-injection (HI) shell growth performed at 573 K, enab...
Mechanism of adsorption for design of role-specific polymeric surfactants
Kırtıl, Emrah; Öztop, Halil Mecit (2023-01-01)
Polymeric surfactants, compared to low molecular weight surfactants, provide prolonged stability and help modify the system’s rheological properties. In recent years, many studies have been published on conjugation of various proteins and carbohydrates to come up with designer biopolymers with superior properties to already available ones. The path to better predict the behavior of surfactant polymers before attempting an application would be through fundamental understanding of the mechanism of adsorption....
Single and multicomponent ion exchange of silver, zinc and copper on zeolite 4a
Ay, Hale; Yücel, Hayrettin; Department of Chemical Engineering (2008)
Ion exchange of heavy metals with zeolites is important in terms of different application areas. Industrial wastewater treatment and antibacterial applications are two essential areas that have taken great attention. While silver, zinc and copper are well known for their toxicity, they are also used as antibacterial agents in zeolites. The objective of this study is to investigate the single and multicomponent ion exchange behavior of zeolite 4A for silver, zinc, copper and sodium ions. For this purpose Ag+...
