- Description: Abstract: Cold gas dynamic spraying (CGDS) is a relatively new technology of cold spraying techniques that uses converging-diverging (De Laval) nozzle at a supersonic velocity to accelerate different solid powders towards a substrate where it plastically deforms on the substrate. This deformation results in adhesion to the surface. Several materials with viable deposition capability have been processed through cold spraying, including metals, ceramics, composite materials, and polymers, thereby creating a wide range of opportunities towards harnessing various properties. CGDS is one of the innovative cold spraying processes with fast-growing scientific interests and industrial applications in the field of aerospace, automotive and biotechnology, over the past years. Cold gas spraying with a wide range of materials offers corrosion protection and results in increases in mechanical durability and wear resistance. It creates components with different thermal and electrical conductivities than that substrates would yield, or produces coatings on the substrate components as thermal insulators and high fatigue-strength coatings, and for clearance control, restoration and repairing, or prostheses with improved wear, and produces components with attractive appearances. This review extensively exploits the latest developments in the experimental analysis of CGDS processes. Cold gas dynamic spraying system, coating formation and deposit development, description of process parameter and principles, are summarized. Industrial applications and prospectives of CGDS in future research are also commented.

- Description: Two main mechanisms, nucleate boiling and convective boiling, are widely accepted for in-tube flow boiling. Since the active nuclei on the heated wall are dominant for nucleate boiling and flow pattern governs the convective boiling, the heat transfer coefficient is strongly influenced by the wall heat flux, mass flux and vapor quality, respectively. In practical industrial applications, for example, the evaporators in refrigeration, forced convective evaporation is the dominant process and high heat transfer efficiency can be obtained under smaller temperature difference between wall and liquid. Therefore, it is of importance to develop a correlation of convective boiling heat transfer with a good accuracy. In this paper, a new kind of micro-finned helically coiled tube was developed and the flow boiling heat transfer characteristics were experimentally studied with R134a. Based on the analysis of the mechanisms of flow boiling, heat transfer correlations of the specific micro-finned helically coiled tubes are obtained.

- Description: Abstract: Modern wind turbines are mainly horizontal axis and operate in bottom atmospheric boundary layer driven by wind shear flow, therefore as the blades rotating the aerodynamic load vary cyclically, with horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) large-scaling the cyclical characteristic becomes more obvious, shortening blade life and increasing cost of wind turbine. As the development of wind turbine largescaling is the essential trend, load fluctuation control is more and more critical in HAWT design and manufacture. In common, individual pitch control is introduced to solve the problem, but cost much energy from electric net. In this paper, a concept of telescopic blade root is introduced to reduce fluctuate load induced by wind shear passively, and considering the blades as rigid assessment is operated, meanwhile aerodynamic model based on blade element method in order to analysis the aerodynamic load on NREL Phase VI reference based blade. The result shows that after introducing the equipment the blade fatigue load can be released, lengthening blade life.

- Description: Abstract: We conducted molecular dynamic (MD) calculations to explore the efficiency of H2/CH4 separation through nanoporous palladium membrane. A palladium membrane with engineered-porosity of 0.1% to 2.2% is used in our model of gas component separation from a mixture. We use computations of molecular dynamics to measure many trajectories of the molecules and thereby collect low statistical uncertainty projections of the gas flow rates. Our simulations demonstrate that high porosity palladium membranes are permeable to both gasses. As the porosity decreases, the permeability of larger molecules greatly reduced, which contributes to an exclusion effect of molecular size for a range of porosity that can permit smaller molecules. This implies that the determined porosity can achieve high selectivity in the separation of gas molecules while the desired gas molecules exhibiting high permeability. We also found that external driving force has...

- Description: In this paper, flow patterns and their transitions for refrigerant R134a boiling in a microfinned helically coiled tube are experimentally observed and analyzed. All the flow patterns occurred in the test can be divided into three dominant regimes, i.e., stratified-wavy flow, intermittent flow and annular flow. Experimental data are plotted in two kinds of flow maps, i.e., Taitel and Dukler flow map and mass flux versus vapor quality flow map. The transitions between various flow regimes and the differences from that in smooth straight tube have also been discussed. Martinelli parameter can be used to indicate the transition from intermittent flow to annular flow. The transition from stratified-wavy flow to annular or intermittent flow is identified in the vapor quality versus mass flux flow map. The flow regime is always in stratified-wavy flow for a mass flux less than 100 kg/m2 s. The two-phase frictional pressure drop characteristics in the test tube are also experimentally studied. The two-phase frictional multiplier data can be well correlated by Lockhart–Martinelli parameter. Considering the corresponding flow regimes, i.e., stratified and annular flow, two frictional pressure drop correlations are proposed, and show a good agreement with the respective experimental data.

- Description: A model for predicting cutting tool temperatures under transient conditions is presented. The model of Stephenson et al. [10] is extended to include the initial transient response to the tool temperature and nonuniform heat flux distributions. The main goal in this paper is to be able to accurately predict the initial transient tool temperature response, or temperatures in interrupted cutting for cases where the cutting time is short. A method to predict the true transient energy partitioning instead of quasi-steady energy partitioning (Stephenson et al., [10]), without seeking the full numerical analysis, has been developed. In this paper, the transient energy partitioning is obtained through a fixed-point iteration process by modifying the quasi-steady energy partitioning method presented by Loewen and Shaw [11]. The predicted transient tool temperatures are compared quantitatively to the experimental data. Utilizing a semi-empirical correlation for heat flux distribution along the tool-chip interface, the temperature distribution is calculated and compared qualitatively to existing experimental data.

- Description: Abstract: Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) materials have been thought to be magic powers with unlimited applications. However, their powdered condition presents difficulty in utilizing them widely in practices. Depending on the envisioned applications, MOFs will be desired to integrate as an application-oriented forms for example thin films into a microelectronic device to achieve the desired performance. In the last decades, atomic layer deposition (ALD) as a truly enabling technology has become the method of choice for films deposition with good quality-control. In this regard, ALD promises to deposit MOFs films onto the target substrates and assist the visibility of MOFs technologies by facilitating MOFs devices integration. This review will collect together the published work that addresses the past ALD research efforts towards MOFs devices integration. Meanwhile, some beneficial concepts from other technological matrix are also pulled in to sparkle the thinking. We aim to provide an understanding on how the ALD technique is currently assisting the visibility of MOFs technologies.

- Description: Abstract: This paper studies the adverse environmental impacts of atomic layer deposition (ALD) nano-manufacturing technology on ALD of Al2O3 nano-scale thin films. Numerical simulations with detailed ALD surface reaction mechanism developed based on Density Functional Theory (DFT), and atomic-level calculations are performed to investigate the effects of four process parameters including process temperature, pulse time, purge time, and carrier gas flow rate on ALD film deposition rate, process emissions and wastes. Full-cycle ALD simulations reveal that the depositions of nano-thin-films in ALD are in essence the chemisorption of the gaseous species and the conversion of surface species. Methane emissions are positively proportional to the film deposition process. The studies show that process temperature fundamentally affects the ALD chemical process by changing the energy states of the surface species. Pulse time is directly related to the precursor dosage. Purge time influences the ALD process by changing the gas-surface interaction time, and higher carrier gas flow rate alters the ALD flow field by accelerating the convective heat and mass transfer in ALD process.

- Description: Abstract : Energy is the essential component of all industries. However, its misuse by untrained staffs, owners of factories and companies increases the rate of consumption which consequently leads to waste of energy. This study aims to find the possible ways to rationalize energy consumption by introducing methods to provide and reduce consumption to maintain non-renewable energy for longer time as much as possible. This study was conducted on a confectionery factory that relies mainly on electrical energy and other sources of energy such as gas and diesel in the operation of furnaces to obtain high quality products while taking into account the reduction of energy consumption. Energy management is the first and most important strategic area to reduce the costs by controlling thermal and electrical energy consumption. First, the facility was analyzed to check the consumption of energy, and then the electrical and mechanical devices were inspected and suggestions were made to save the energy based on this study. The result showed a total energy saving up potential of 30,000 (kWh/year) by improving the electrical systems of the factory.

- Description: Abstract: This chapter discusses the concepts, casting techniques and applications of functionally graded materials metal matrix composites (FGMMCs). Considerations were given to bulk functionally graded aluminium matrix composites (FGAACs) production processes. Liquid-metal forging processes of FGAACs fabrication, such as infiltration process, squeeze casting, friction casting or compocasting, stir, and centrifugal casting were discussed. The chapter provides basic concepts of the processes and overview of their processing param- eters, such as mould rotational speed; reinforcement particles size and volume; degassing method; melting and pouring temperatures; pressure; and stirrer. The study notes that functionally graded materials (FGMs) are commonly used in automotive, aircraft, aviation, chemical, medical, engineering, renewable energy, nuclear energy, and optics electronics industries.

- Description: Abstract : This study characterized and fabricated nanostructured TiO2/NiO heterojunction solar cells. The heterojunction was fabricated using spray pyrolysis technique at above 350 ºC on Indium Tin Oxide substrate. The X-ray diffraction shows that the heterojunctions have a polycrystalline cubic structure with a preferred orientation along the (1 1 1) and (2 0 0) planes. The elemental properties show the presence of TiO2 and NiO. The optical band gap, refractive index and other optoelectronic properties were also investigated. These findings will enhance the study of cheap, efficient and sustainable alternate materials for solar energy development and affordable energy in developing countries.
