Influence of Liquid Surface Tension (surfactants) on Bubble Formation at Rigid and Flexible Orifices
نویسندگان
چکیده
The influence of liquid surface tension on the bubble formation from both rigid and flexible orifice has been investigated. The liquid phases under test are aqueous solutions with butanol or surfactants (cationic, non-ionic and anionic); static and dynamic measurements of liquid surface tension have been performed to characterise them. This study shows that the effect of surface tension on the bubbles generated cannot be analysed only in terms of the static surface tension, but also depends on whether the bubbles are generated from a rigid orifice or from a flexible orifice. The kinetics of adsorption and diffusion of the solute molecules towards the bubble interface have to be taken into account insofar as their time scales are comparable to those of the bubble formation phenomenon.

Evaluation of the Effect of Nonionic Surfactants and TBAC on Surface Tension of CO2 Gas Hydrate
Given that most of the gaseous constituents of industrial chimneys are usually carbon dioxide which is one of the most important greenhouse gases. It seems that the hydration process is one of the newest methods for the separation of this gas from gaseous mixtures. In the gas hydrate formation industry, in addition to disadvantages, there are some advantages such as gas separation, transmission...
متن کاملDynamics of Bubble Growth and Detachment from Rigid and Flexible Orifices
The objective of this paper is to understand how and why the orifice nature (rigid or flexible) governs the bubble generation. The differences in orifice nature and properties have strong consequences on the bubbles generated. Indeed, the dynamics of the formation and the nature of the detached bubbles are fundamentally different depending on whether the bubbles are generated from the rigid ori...
متن کاملSurfactants for Bubble Removal against Buoyancy
The common phenomenon of buoyancy-induced vapor bubble lift-off from a heated surface is of importance to many areas of science and technology. In the absence of buoyancy in zero gravity of space, non-departing bubbles coalesce to form a big dry patch on the heated surface and heat transfer deteriorates despite the high latent heat of vaporization of water. The situation is worse on an inverted...
متن کاملHaitsma Lungprotective Ventilation in Ards
before the work of Asbaugh’s group, von Neergaard 2 in 1929 was the first to suggest that surface tension plays a role in lung elasticity. He showed that the pressure necessary to fill the lung with liquid was less than half the pressure needed to fill the lung with air. His explanation for this remarkable difference was based on the assumption that at the interface of each alveolus there must ...

This work investigates the modeling of the surface tension and the interface of liquid mixtures. Nine binary liquid mixtures of (DMSO+alcohols), (2-Propanol+2,2,4-trimethylpentane), (Tetrahydrofuran+2-Propanol), (Tetrahydrofuran+2,2,4-trimethylpentane), and (ethano+glycerol) are considered. Additionally, one ternary liquid mixture of (Tetrahydrofuran+2-Propanol+2,2,4-trimethylpenta...
