The flow in boundary layer is considered to be generated solely by the stretching of the sheet adjacent to porous medium with boundary wall slip condition. Highly nonlinear momentum and thermal boundary layer equations governing the flow and heat transfer are reduced to set of nonlinear ordinary differential equations by appropriate transformation. The resulting ODEs are successfully solved numerically with the help of shooting method. Graphical results are shown for non-dimensional velocities and temperature. The effects of heat generation/absorption parameter, the porous parameter, the viscoelastic parameter, velocity slip parameter, variable thermal conductivity and the Prandtl number on the flow and temperature profiles are presented. Moreover, the local skin-friction coefficient and Nusselt number are presented. Comparison of numerical results is made with the earlier published results under limiting cases.展开更多

Material properties were taken to be arbitrary distribution functions of the thickness. A temperature function that satisfies thermal boundary conditions at the edges and the variable separation method were used to reduce equation governing the steady state heat conduction to an ordinary differential equation （ODE） in the thickness coordinate which was solved analytically. Next, resulting variable coefficients ODE due to arbitrary distribution of material properties along thickness coordinate was also solved by the Peano-Baker series. Some numerical examples were given to demonstrate the accuracy, efficiency of the present model, mad to investigate the influence of different distributions of material properties on the temperature field. The numerical results confirm that the influence of different material distributions, gradient indices and thickness of plate to temperature field in plate can not be ignored.展开更多

High titanium slag containing more than 90% TiO2 was prepared by carbothermal reduction of ilmenite. The temperature rise curve of high titanium slag in microwave heating process was obtained. Crystalline compounds of high titanium slag before and after microwave irradiation were obtained and characterized by X-ray diffractometry （XRD）. Effects of particle size of high titanium slag anal mixtures of high titanium slag with different mass fractions of V2o5 on microwave absorbing properties were investigated systematically. The results show that high titanium slag has good microwave absorption property; untreated high titanium slag mainly consists of crystalline compounds of anatase and iron titanium oxide, while the microwave-irradiation treated one is mainly composed of crystalline compounds of rutile and irgn titanium oxide. Synthetic anatase is transformed completely into rutile at about 1 050 ℃ for 20 min under microwave irradiation. High frequency shift and low amplitude of voltage make high titanium slag an ideal microwave absorbent. 180 μm of particle size and 10% mass fraction of V2O5 are found to be the optimum conditions for microwave absorption.展开更多

The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). The results reveal that the precusor was monoclinic Mg5(CO3)4(OH)2·4H2O and composed of nanosheets with the thickness of about 250 nm. By calcining the precusor at 500 °C for 5 min, cubic MgO with similar morphology was obtained. According to the SEM images, it is found that the volume ratio of PEG-400 to deionized water is considered as a crucial factor in the evolution of the morphology. Based on the SEM images obtained under different experimental conditions, a possible growth mechanism which involves self-assembly process was proposed. The thermal decomposition process of MgO precusor was studied by thermogravimetry-differential thermogravimetry(TG-DTG) at different heating rates in air. Thermal analysis kinetics results show that the most probale mechanism models of MgO precusor are An and D3, respectively. In addition, isothermal prediction was studied to quantitatively characterize the thermal decomposition process.展开更多
