چکیده

We present experiments on a monolayer of air-fluidized beads in which a jamming transition is approached by increasing pressure, increasing packing fraction, and decreasing kinetic energy. This is accomplished, along with a noninvasive measurement of pressure, by tilting the system and examining behavior versus depth. We construct an equation of state and analyze relaxation time versus effective temperature. By making time and effective temperature dimensionless using factors of pressure, bead size, and bead mass, we obtain a good collapse of the data but to a functional form that differs from that of thermal hard-sphere systems. The relaxation time appears to diverge only as the effective temperature to pressure ratio goes to zero.

Air-Fluidized Grains as a Model System: Self-Propelling and Jamming

This thesis examines two concepts -self-propelling and jamming -that have been employed to unify disparate non-equilibrium systems, in the context of a monolayer of grains fluidized by a temporally and spatially homogeneous upflow of air. The first experiment examines the single particle dynamics of airfluidized rods. For Brownian rods, equipartition of energy holds and rotational motion sets a...

Angoricity and compactivity describe the jamming transition in soft particulate matter

The application of concepts from equilibrium statistical mechanics to out-ofequilibrium systems has a long history of describing diverse systems ranging from glasses to granular materials. For dissipative jammed systems —particulate grains or droplets— a key concept is to replace the energy ensemble describing conservative systems by the volume-stress ensemble. Here, we test the applicability o...

Effects of Rapid Heating on Solutionizing Characteristics of Al-Si-Mg Alloys Using a Fluidized Bed

Effects of rapid heat transfer using a fluidized bed on the heat-treating response of Al-Si-Mg alloys (both unmodified and Sr modified) were investigated. The heating rate in the fluidized bed is greater than in conventional air convective furnaces. Particle size analyses of eutectic Si showed that the high heating rate during fluidized bed solution heat treatment causes faster fragmentation an...

Steam-air fluidized bed gasification of distillers grains: Effects of steam to biomass ratio, equivalence ratio and gasification temperature.

In this study, thermochemical biomass gasification was performed on a bench-scale fluidized-bed gasifier with steam and air as fluidizing and oxidizing agents. Distillers grains, a non-fermentable byproduct of ethanol production, were used as the biomass feedstock for the gasification. The goal was to investigate the effects of furnace temperature, steam to biomass ratio and equivalence ratio o...

High Temperature Erosion- Oxidation Behavior of Nickel- Based Alloys Containing Mo in Fluidized Bed Waste Incineration

High-temperature erosion-oxidation behavior of nickel-based alloys containing 0-7 wt.% Mo in fluidized bed waste incineration conditions was studied. A stream of hot condensed air with a flow rate of 25 L/min caused hot silica sand (700 °C) mixed with 0.5 wt.% of chloride salts to hit the specimens for 250 h. By removing the erosive factor, the high-temperature oxidation behavior of the alloys ...
