We investigate the effect of shape on reversible adsorption kinetics using colloidal polystyrene dimers near a solid glass surface as a model system. The interaction between colloid and wall is tuned using electrostatic, depletion, and gravity forces to

Laminar flame speed measurements were carried for mixture of air with eight C3-4 hydrocarbons (propene, propane, 1,3-butadiene, 1-butene, 2-butene, iso-butene, n-butane, and iso-butane) at the room temperature and ambient pressure. Along with C1-2
Numerous mathematical tools intended to optimize rate constants employed in detailed kinetic models and make them consistent with experimental data have been reported in the literature. A typical methodology begins with the assignment of uncertainties in

In this chapter, we present a review of recent research of interest to biofuel combustion. A brief overview of chemical kinetic mechanism development is provided. We then discuss experimental and computational studies of the pyrolytic and oxidative

When a fluid is conned to a nanopore, its thermodynamic properties differ from the properties of a bulk fluid. Measuring certain properties of con fined fluid can provide information about the pore sizes. Here we report a simple relation between the pore
In this article, recent work on calculating high-quality enthalpies of formation for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) based on both density functional theory (DFT) and Gaussian-3 (G3) model chemistry methods is discussed. It is shown that through
Equations of state are presented for the refrigerants 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-heptafluoropropane (R-227ea) and 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluorobutane (R-365mfc). Typical uncertainties of properties calculated with the new equations are 0.2 % in density, 1 % to 2 % in heat
