Motion Analysis of Fluid Flow in a Spinning Disk Reactor

The flow of a liquid film over a rapidly rotating horizontal disk has numerous industrial applications including pharmaceuticals, chemical engineering, bioengineering, etc. The analysis and control of complex fluid flows over a rapidly rotating horizontal disk is an important issue in the experimental fluid mechanics. The spinning disk reactor exploits the benefits of centrifugal force, which p...

Production of Iron Disulfide Nanoparticles by Hydrothermal Process

In this research, a single-stage low-temperature hydrothermal synthesis route was successfully developed for preparation of Iron Disulfide. The prepared powder was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). These analyses showed that nanoparticles were well crystallized, pyrite was the main product and the shape of crystals was nanorod. Also, the influences...

Chemical Dynamics of Monodispersed Iron Oxide Nanoparticles

This study is comprised of the synthesis and characterization of uniform fine particles of iron oxide in different shapes and sizes. Varying amounts of iron (III) chloride and sodium dihydrogen phosphate was heated at 98 oC for various periods, following the forced hydrolysis method. Scanning electron microscopic analysis showed that the shape and size of the precipitated particl...
