The evolution of (non-strange) antibaryon abundances in the hadronic phase of central heavy-ion collisions is studied within a thermal equilibrium framework, based on the well-established picture of subsequent chemical and thermal freezeout. Due to large annihilation cross sections, antiprotons are, a priori, not expected to comply with this scheme. However , we show that a significant regenera...

Numerical simulation on the thermal plasma characteristics was carried out inside of the DC non-transferred thermal plasma system to preparation of AlN nano powder. Especially, chemical reactions were considered between thermal plasma, Al metal bulk, and NH3 gas inside of the reactor by FLUENT computational fluid dynamics code. In our simulations, 2-D axis-symmetric domain was assumed, and the ...

The present paper aims at investigating the steady two-dimensional MHD convective boundary layer flow of a Casson fluid over a permeable stretching surface in the presence of thermal radiation and chemical reaction. The stretching velocity, wall temperature and wall concentration are assumed to vary according to specific exponential form. Velocity slip, thermal slip, solutal slip, thermal radia...

the present work deals with the synthesis and characterization of cds nanoparticles with good thermal stability and optical properties by a novel and simple synthetic route. the nanoparticles were synthesized via chemical precipitation method in a single reaction vessel under ambient conditions. the prepared cds nanoparticles were compared with the bulk cds. the optical properties were determin...

This investigation is undertaken to study the heat and mass transfer flow past an infinite vertical plate with variable thermal conductivity. The governing equations for the model are formulated with appropriate boundary conditions. The equations are simplified, non-dimensionalized and then solved numerically with the aid of MAPLE package. The flow phenomenon are characterized by the flow param...

Abstract: Nano- size alumina particles have been synthesized by mechanical activation of a dry powder mixture of AlCl3 and CaO. Mechanical milling of the above raw materials with the conditions adopted in this study resulted in the formation of a mixture consisting of crystalline CaO and amorphous aluminum chlorides phases. There was no sign of chemical reaction occurring during milling stag...

A bio-based plasticizer, epoxidized acetylation cardanol, was synthesized from cardanol, which experienced acetylation reaction and epoxidation reaction. Chemical structure of epoxidized acetylation cardanol was characterized by FT-IR and 1H NMR. Plasticized PVC films (PVC-P) were prepared by casting method with 40%wt of epoxidized acetylation cardanol as a plasticizer. Thermal s...

Thermal stability evaluation of exothermic chemical reactions is of great importance to the safer design and operation of chemical processes. Dominant reaction stoichiometries and their thermochemistry parameters are key elements in the evaluation process. Identification of significant reaction pathways under possible process conditions will lead to an understanding of the overall thermodynamic...

Shock initiated chemical reaction experiments have been performed on a 1:l atomic ratio mixture of 20to 45,um nickel and 325 mesh crystalline silicon powders. It has been observed that no detectable or only minor surface reactions occur between the constituents until a thermal energy threshold is reached, above which the reaction goes to completion. The experiments show the energy difference be...
