Kinetics of H Atom Addition to Cyclopentene

March 7, 2018
Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Manion, Iftikhar A. Awan
To provide benchmark information needed to develop kinetic models of the combustion and pyrolysis of hydrocarbon ring structures, we have used the single pulse shock tube technique to study the kinetics of H atom addition to cyclopentene at 863 K to 1167 K

Compressed-liquid Density Measurements of Four Polyol Ester-Based Lubricants

March 6, 2018
Author(s)
Stephanie L. Outcalt
A vibrating-tube densimeter has been used to measure compressed-liquid densities of the fluids pentaerythritol tetrapentanoate (PEC5), pentaerythritol tetraheptanoate (PEC7), pentaerythritol tetranonanoate (PEC9), and a commercial lubricant, Royco 899 from

Development and Validation of a Mechanism for Flame Propagation in R-32/Air Mixtures

March 6, 2018
Author(s)
Donald R. Burgess Jr., Jeffrey A. Manion, Robert R. Burrell, Valeri I. Babushok, Michael Hegetschweiler, Gregory T. Linteris
A mechanism for the combustion of the refrigerant R-32 (CH2F2) in air mixtures was developed and validated through comparisons with measured flame speeds for a range of equivalence ratios (0.9 to 1.4) and pressures (1 to 3 bar) using a constant-volume

Implementations of the Tennessee Eastman Process in Modelica

February 22, 2018
Author(s)
Carla Martin-Villalba, Alfonso Urquia, Guodong Shao
The Tennessee Eastman process is a typical industrial process that consists of five main process units: a two-phase reactor where an exothermic reaction occurs, a separator, a stripper, a compressor, and a mixer. This is a nonlinear open-loop unstable

Carbon Nanotube-Based Black Coatings

February 15, 2018
Author(s)
John H. Lehman, Christopher S. Yung, Nathan A. Tomlin, Davis R. Conklin, Michelle S. Stephens
It has been shown that coatings comprised of carbon nanotubes are very black; that is, characterized by low reflectance over a broad wavelength range from the visible to far infrared. Arguably there is no other material that is comparable. This is

A Shock Tube Study of H Addition to Cyclopentene

February 1, 2018
Author(s)
Jeffrey A. Manion, Iftikhar A. Awan
The kinetics of H atom addition to cyclopentene has been studied with a single pulse shock tube at temperatures of (863 to 1167 K) and pressures of (160 to 370) kPa. Hydrogen atoms were generated with thermal precursors in dilute mixtures of cyclopentene

How to extract distributed circuit parameters from the scattering parameters of a transmission line

January 15, 2018
Author(s)
Nathan D. Orloff, Jasper A. Drisko, Angela C. Stelson, Charles A. Little, James C. Booth, Jordi Mateu, Christian J. Long
Distributed circuit parameters parameterize the transmission and reflection off a given transmission line in terms of a distributed resistance, inductance, capacitance, and conductance, which are per unit length frequency dependent quantities. While there

Quantum for Pressure

January 5, 2018
Author(s)
Jay H. Hendricks, Patrick F. Egan, Jacob E. Ricker, Jack A. Stone Jr., Kevin O. Douglass, Gregory F. Strouse
A team of NIST scientists is working to fundamentally change the way that the unit of pressure is realized and disseminated, an effort that will lead to the elimination of mercury barometer pressure standards.

Hybrid Characterization of Nanolitre Dielectric Fluids in a Single Microfluidic Channel up to 110 GHz Song

December 1, 2017
Author(s)
Nathan D. Orloff, Song Liu, James C. Booth, Dylan F. Williams, Dominec Schreurs, Bart Nauwelaers, Iija Oclet, Charles A. Little
In this work, we present a new “hybrid” method for dielectric measurements of nanolitre fluid samples on-wafer. The first part of the hybrid method is a technique which extracts the 4 complex permittivity of the microfluidic channel wall material. The
