Effect of Al2O3 Nanolubricant on R134a Pool Boiling Heat Transfer

September 8, 2012
Author(s)
Mark A. Kedzierski
This paper quantifies the influence of Al2O3 nanoparticles on the pool boiling performance of R134a/polyolester mixtures on a roughened, horizontal, flat surface. Nanofluids are liquids that contain dispersed nano-size particles. A lubricant based

Thermodynamic Properties of Dimethyl Carbonate

December 27, 2011
Author(s)
Yong Zhou, Jiangtao Wu, Eric Lemmon
… level of 95 %) of the equation of state in density are 0.05% for saturated liquid states below 350 K, rising to 0.1 % …

Influence of Interface Alloying on the Magnetic Properties of Co/Pd Multilayers

December 1, 2003
Author(s)
J Carrey, A. E. Berkowitz, William F. Egelhoff Jr., D J. Smith
An important issue concerning Co/Pd multilayers is the origin of their perpendicular anisotropy. One explanation is broken symmetry of Co atoms at the Co/Pd interface; another involves magnetoelastic effects in an interfacial Co-Pd alloy. We examined this

Effective Medium Theory of the Porosity Dependence of Bulk Moduli

May 1, 2001
Author(s)
R G. Munro
Effective medium theory is used to obtain a closed form expression for the porosity dependence of the bulk moduli of ceramics. The theory is illustrated with an application to data for high purity alumina that spans a volume fraction of porosity ranging

Intercritical annealing to achieve a positive strain rate sensitivity of mechanical properties and suppression of plastic instabilities in multi-phase medium-Mn steels

October 29, 2020
Author(s)
Jake Benzing, William E. Luecke, Steven Mates, Dirk Ponge, Dierk Raabe, James Wittig
The present work investigates the room temperature tensile properties of a cold-rolled Fe-12Mn- 3Al-0.05C (% by mass) steel designed to have a multi-phase microstructure and positive strain rate sensitivities. An increase in intercritical annealing time

A New Determination of G

October 12, 2021
Author(s)
J P. Schwarz, J E. Faller, T M. Niebauer, F Klopping, D S. Robertson, G Sasagawa
… .04 υGal for a signal of about 80 υGal. This would be a .05 % experiment in G, if the other error sources are kept … A two week data is feasible, and thus we expect to make a .05 % determination of G which will significantly contribute …

Determining Flow Resistance through Vegetation Canopy

May 2, 2020
Author(s)
Ryan L. Falkenstein-Smith, Kevin B. McGrattan
This study documents the measurement of the wind resistance of different types of vegetation. The measurements are made in a wind tunnel with a 2.0 m test section and 0.5 m by 0.5 m cross- section. Samples of vegetation have been cut into cubical volumes

Potassium Induced Charge Transfer Effects in OPE-based Molecular Layers

August 11, 2011
Author(s)
Steven W. Robey, Gregory J. Dutton
The impact of potassium (K) addition on the electronic structure of oligo- (phenylene ethynylene) (OPE) and –NO2 substituted OPE (NO2-OPE) self-assembled monolayers was examined using ultraviolet photoemission. Addition below 0.5 K/molecule produced rigid

Parametric study of micropillar array solar cells

June 19, 2011
Author(s)
Heayoung Yoon, Yu A. Yuwen, Haoting Shen, Nikolas J. Podraza, Thomas E. Mallouk, Elizabeth C. Dickey, Joan A. Redwing, Christopher R. Wronski, Theresa S. Mayer
Micro/nano pillar arrays can be a promising architecture for high efficiency solar cells based on less expensive photovoltaic materials with short minority carrier diffusion lengths (Ln, p). To investigate design tradeoffs of the radial junction array

Integrated Broadband Lumped-Element Symmetrical-Hybrid N-way Power Dividers

June 7, 2009
Author(s)
Mike Elsbury, Paul D. Dresselhaus, Samuel P. Benz, Zoya Popovic
This paper presents a monolithically-integrated, broadband, lumped-element, symmetrical-hybrid power divider centered at 20 GHz which was designed and fabricated to uniformly distribute power to arrays of Josephson junctions for superconducting voltage

A Strain-Based Methodology for High Temperature Lifetime Prediction

September 1, 1998
Author(s)
Sheldon M. Wiederhorn, William E. Luecke, Ralph Krause
In structural materials, lifetime is often strain-determined. Once a part exceeds its allowable strain, its functional integrity is lost. Although most ceramics are designed to a brittle failure criterion, silicon nitride at the temperatures expected in
