Effects of Liquid Parameters on Liquid-Filled Compartment Structure Defense Against Metal Jet

Stretchable Metamaterial Absorber Using Liquid Metal-Filled Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)

A stretchable metamaterial absorber is proposed in this study. The stretchability was achieved by liquid metal and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). To inject liquid metal, microfluidic channels were fabricated using PDMS powers and microfluidic-channel frames, which were built using a three-dimensional printer. A top conductive pattern and ground plane were designed after considering the easy injec...

Modeling of Turbulence Effects on Liquid Jet Atomization

Recent experimental investigations and physical modeling studies have indicated that turbulence behaviors within a liquid jet have considerable effects on the atomization process. For certain flow regimes, it has been observed that the liquid jet surface is highly turbulent. This turbulence characteristic plays a key role on the breakup of the liquid jet near to the injector exit. Other experim...

Liquid-metal-jet anode electron-impact x-ray source

We demonstrate an anode concept, based on a liquid-metal jet, for improved brightness in compact electron-impact x-ray sources. The source is demonstrated in a proof-of-principle experiment where a 50 keV, ;100 W electron beam is focused on a 75 mm liquid-solder jet. The generated x-ray flux and brightness is quantitatively measured in the 7–50 keV spectral region and found to agree with theory...

High-brightness liquid-metal-jet x-ray tube

C257 includes a high accuracy single axis diffractometer complemented with a removable mini-kappa mount and an automated mounting robot that can work with both cryogenic samples and crystallization plates. A photon-counting 6-Mpixel detector, built with parallel pixel electronics, offers outstanding capabilities like a large sensitive area (431×448 mm2), a very fast framing rate (12 images/seco...
