In-plane Homogeneity and Lipid Dynamics in tethered Bilayer Lipid Membranes (tBLMs)

January 1, 2010
Author(s)
Siddharth Shenoy, Radu Moldovan, James Fitzpatrick, David J. Vanderah, Markus Deserno, Mathias Losche
Tethered bilayer lipid membranes (tBLMs) were prepared by the self-assembly of thiolated lipidic anchors on gold films sputtered on Si wafers, followed by phospholipid precipitation via rapid solvent exchange. They were characterized in their in-plane

Optimization Calculations for a 30 HZ, 4 K Regenerator with Helium-3 Working Fluid

June 28, 2009
Author(s)
Ray Radebaugh, Yonghua Huang, Agnes A. O'Gallagher, John M. Gary
The NIST numerical software, REGEN3.3, which incorporates both He-4 and He-3 properties, was used to calculate the losses and second law efficiencies of 4 K regenerators operating at 30 Hz. Operating parameters, such as average pressure, pressure ratio

Uncertainties in Scaling Factors for ab Initio Vibrational Zero-Point Energies

March 21, 2009

Karl K. Irikura, Russell D. Johnson III, Raghu N. Kacker, Ruediger Kessel
Vibrational zero-point energies (ZPEs) determined from ab initio calculations are often scaled by empirical factors. An empirical scaling factor partially compensates for the effects arising from vibrational anharmonicity and incomplete treatment of

Multichannel Decomposition and Isomerization of Octyl Radicals

October 9, 2008
Author(s)
Wing Tsang, William S. McGivern, Jeffrey A. Manion
The thermal cracking patterns from the decomposition and isomerization of octyl-1 radicals have been determined from the pyrolysis of n-octyl iodide in single pulse shock tube experiments at temperatures in the 850-1000 K range and pressures near 2 bar

Thermal Decomposition Kinetics of the Aviation Turbine Fuel Jet-A

July 2, 2008
Author(s)
Jason A. Widegren, Thomas J. Bruno
As part of a larger-scale thermophysical and transport property measurement project, the global decomposition kinetics of the aviation turbine fuel Jet-A was investigated. Decomposition reactions were performed at 375, 400, 425, and 450 °C in stainless

Calculated Performance of Low-Porosity Regenerators at 4 K with He-4 and He-3

June 9, 2008
Author(s)
Ray Radebaugh, Yonghua Huang, Agnes A. O'Gallagher, John M. Gary
Previously we have shown that the lower volumetric heat capacity and more ideal behavior of helium-3 compared with helium-4 at 4 K results in an improved performance for packed sphere regenerators operating with helium-3 between 4 K and about 20 K. In this

EQUATION OF STATE AND THERMOPHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF HELIUM-3

April 3, 2007
Author(s)
Yonghua Huang, G.B. Chen, V. Arp, Ray Radebaugh
Experimental data of the thermophysical properties of 3He were mined into a searchable database. Equilibrium equations along the vapor-liquid and liquid-solid lines were proposed. A general equation of state for normal fluid 3He based on the Debye specific
