Abstract: In this study, we investigate the water and chloride ion (Cl−) transport properties of aeolian sand mortar (ASM) in an unsaturated state. Capillary absorption tests were conducted on ASM with varying water-to-binder ratios ...

Abstract: Visualized experimental observation on flow patterns during flow boiling of water under single-side heated and fluid-inlet subcooled conditions in a vertical narrow rectangular channel with the ...

Abstract: The supercritical carbon dioxide (S-CO2) Brayton gas turbine cycle has been studied as an efficient and cost-effective option for advanced power systems. One major safety issue for any power cycle is a pipe break and the ...

Abstract: Via partial hydrogenation, polyunsaturated fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) in biodiesel were largely converted to monounsaturated and saturated FAMEs, which brought the following changes in fuel properties: lower iodine ...
