Surface Tension and Surface Energy of Curved Interfaces and Membranes
In this work we develop the basic idea that the mechanical properties of a curved Gibbsian dividing surface are characterized, not only by the surface tension, but also by surface moments. It is shown that an additional surface bending moment term is to be introduced in the interfacial balance of the force moments at a spherical dividing surface. The existence of surface bending moment leads to...
متن کاملEffect of membrane properties and pretreatment on flux and NOM rejection in surface water nanofiltration
Nanofiltration (NF) is a compact process that has potential for removing organic and inorganic pollutants for drinking water. In this study, arious NF membranes for surface water treatment were compared using a batch-stirred cell and crossflow equipment in terms of solute rejection nd membrane flux. The rejection of natural organic matter (NOM) was closely related to ion rejection and membrane ...
متن کاملImproving Hydrophilicity of Polyethersulfone Membrane Using Silver Nanoparticles for Humic Substances Removal
Silver-impregnated membrane was facilely prepared by ex situ silver nanoparticles (NPs) blending method using polyethersulfone (PES) as the base polymer. A total of three membranes [F1(S0), F2(S0.5) and F3(S2.0)] were fabricated at different weight percentages of polymer and silver (Ag) loadings to compare their effects on membrane morphological and performance properties. All membrane types we...
متن کاملDynamic Contact Angle on a Surface with Gradient in Wettability
The retention and drainage of water on heat exchangers is extremely important in air-conditioning, refrigeration, and heat-pumping systems. In this work, droplets of varying sizes sliding on an inclined heat exchanger materials with and without a wettability gradient are observed using a high-speed camera. The dynamic contact angles, the shape evolution and the velocity of the droplet are obtai...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Free Surface Flows and Comparison of Symmetry and Real Boundary Conditions at the Free Surface
For implementation
 of the free surface boundary condition, a new subroutine has been introduced to an existing steady 3-D body fitted code. This code was previously written for steady flow simulation in closed ducts. The algorithm used in this subroutine reduces the instability problem according to the free surface wave generation. For code validation, it was applied to two different open c...
