In the nuclear industry, mixed oxide fuel pellets are manufactured by powder metallurgy process. This work aims at improving physical and flow properties of powders in order to obtain a reproducible die filling produce homogeneous dense after sintering. The studied was grinded mixture UO2 sintered scraps (recycled). Two conditioning methods were tested compared: V-blender an oscillating rotatin...

The first step in dealing with the behavior of an engine on NG mode is the installation of a suitable gas fueling system on the engine. Two generations of gas fueling systems which were studied and installed on research engine were Mixer type and Sequential system type. The results, including performance, emissions and fuel consumption, were recorded and analyzed. The results showed that the...

The liquid streams in a microchannel are hardly mixed to form laminar flow, and the mixing issue is well described by a low Reynolds number scheme. The staggered herringbone mixer (SHM) using repeated patterns of grooves in the microchannel have been proved to be an efficient passive micro-mixer. However, only a negative pattern of the staggered herringbone mixer has been used so far after it w...

A sandwich mixer consists of mixing two solutions in a channel, one central laminar flow being sandwiched between two outer flow solutions. The present numerical study considers the convection-diffusion of two reacting species A and B, provided respectively by the two incoming solutions. The simulations show how the diffusion coefficient, flow rate and species concentration ratios influence, vi...

The main objective of the present work was to synthesis polyamide 6 through anionic polymerization of ε-caprolactam in an internal mixer. The reaction time and the rheological properties of samples during the polymerization were studied. The samples were characterized by Thermo Gravimetry Analysis (TGA), Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) and FT-IR spectrometer. The melt flow behavior and ...

In this paper a 3.5 GHz down conversion mixer with 20 MHz IF output signal for location-fixed WiMAX systems is presented. The proposed mixer is implemented with TSMC 0.18μm RF CMOS technology with 1.5V supply voltage which utilizes Current-Bleeding and Current-Reuse techniques to improve noise figure and conversion gain of conventional Gilbert-type structure. This mixer achieves 12 dB of conver...

In this paper, a low-power up-conversion current-mode mixer, designed in the chartered 0.18-μm RFCMOS technology, is proposed to realize the transmitter front-end in the frequency band of 2.4 GHz. The proposed mixer can convert a 10 MHz intermediate frequency (IF) signal to a 2.4 GHz RF signal, with a local oscillator power of 2 dBm at 2.39 GHz. A comparison with conventional voltage-mode up-co...

The transcription factors Fast-1 and Mixer are important terminal components of Smad2-mediated TGF-beta signal transduction. Recent studies demonstrate that Fast-1 and Mixer play critical roles in the formation of endoderm and dorsal mesoderm in zebrafish.

We present the design and measured results for a 60 GHz double balanced sub-harmonic MMIC mixer fabricated using the TRW 0.15μm gate length GaAs pHEMT foundry process. The sub-harmonic mixer architecture eliminates the need for costly mm-wave sources that are usually required with conventional fundamental frequency mixers. The mixer has been integrated into a coaxial package and a measured conv...
