Issue d’un partenariat de recherche entre le CEA et les laboratoires Servier, cette thèse avait pour objectif d’évaluer l’approche métabolomique par chromatographie liquide couplée à la spectrométrie de masse (LC-MS) pour l'identification de marqueurs indirects de l'induction dans les espèces de toxicologie. Le travail de thèse a débuté par l’optimisation de la méthode d’acquisition des empreintes métaboliques tant sur le plan analytique que dans le domaine du traitement des données brutes. Un outil reposant sur les matrices d’auto corrélation a alors été développé afin de s’affranchir d’une partie de la redondance du signal obtenu par spectrométrie de masse. Dans un troisième temps, les indices de Kendrick couplés à la sélectivité méthylène ont été appliqués à l’étude de composés biologiques en spectrométrie de masse haute résolution afin de proposer une méthode alternative de visualisation des données offrant une aide à l’identification des variables. Enfin, dans une dernière partie, les efforts se sont portés sur l’identification des composés endogènes modifiés au cours du protocole d’induction.

This work is the result of a research partnership between the CEA and Les laboratories Servier. It deals with the characterization of biomarkers of metabolic enzyme induction in rat biofluids using MSbased metabolomics. The first part of this work included methodological developments regarding theacquisition and the processing of metabolic fingerprints. A tool based on autocorrelation matrices wasthen implemented to reduce the redundancy of data generated with mass spectrometry and subsequently accelerate the isolation of discriminating variables. The next step consisted in the evaluation of the combined use of Kendrick mass defects and methylene selectivity as an alternative visualization tool for large data set, which would rely on compound chemical structures. Finally, the last part of the work was dedicated to the identification of discriminating signals raised up by ametabolomic global approach from rat biofluids collected before and after an induction assay.

▼ This project studies the liquid refrigerant distribution of an intermediate vertical manifold in a multi-pass evaporator. A new test rig is designed and built to circulate R410A through the vertical microchannel manifold. Refrigerant is circulated into the manifold through the lower set of parallel microchannels and exits through the upper set. Three experimental circular manifolds were developed, each with the microchannels inserted to half depth. The first is an aluminum manifold used in industry with 5 inlet and 5 exit microchannels; the second is a transparent replica of the first; the third is a transparent manifold with 10 inlet and 10 exit microchannels used to study the effect of increasing manifold length and microchannel number. The inlet mass flow rate (min) and quality (x) are two main parameters affecting the distribution. The inlet quality was varied from 0.2 to 0.8, and the inlet mass flow rate was varied from 0.8 to 4.5 g/h per microchannel. For all three manifolds, the best distribution is generally found at high min and low x, and the worst at high x and extreme values of min. At low qualities, 0.2 and 0.4, the distribution improves with increasing mass flow rate, and at high qualities, 0.6 and 0.8, the distribution is optimum at intermediate mass flow rates, and gets worse as min increases or decreases. Likewise, for a fixed mass flow rate, the distribution generally improves as quality decreases. A comparison of the two transparent headers shows that increasing the number of microchannels in the header generally improves the distribution. The two-phase flow regimes bubbly flow, churn flow and semi-annular flow are observed through visualization results. The flow regime is dependent on min and x. At constant min, increasing the inlet quality would transition the flow regime from bubbly, to churn, and then to semi-annular flow. At a fixed intermediate inlet quality (e.g., 0.4), the flow regime would change from churn to semi-annular as min increases. The variation of liquid distribution closely follows the transition of flow regime. Based on the visualization results and force balance analysis, the liquid distribution is mainly determined by the competition between the inertial and buoyancy forces. The force balance determines where liquid goes, and further determines the distribution. Froude number is an appropriate parameter to predict the flow regime. However, it is not good enough to predict the distribution because it does not include the important effects of top pressure. Advisors/Committee Members: Hrnjak, Predrag S. (advisor).

▼ In electrochemical energy devices, including fuel cells, electrolyzers and batteries, the electrochemical reactions occur only on triple phase boundaries (TPBs). The boundaries provide the conductors for electros and protons, the catalysts for electrochemical reactions and the effective pathways for transport of reactants and products. The interfaces have a critical impact on the overall performance and cost of the devices in which they are incorporated, and therefore could be a key feature to optimize in order to turn a prototype into a commercially viable product. For electrolysis of water, proton exchange membrane electrolyzer cells (PEMECs) have several advantages compared to other electrolysis processes, including greater energy efficiency, higher product purity, and a more compact design. In addition, the integration of renewable energy sources with water electrolysis is very attractive because it can be accomplished with high efficiency, flexibility, and sustainability. However, there is a lack in fundamental understanding of rapid and microscale electrochemical reactions and microfluidics in PEMECs. This research investigates the multiscale behaviors of electrochemical reactions and microfluidics in a PEMEC by coupling an innovative design of the PEMEC with a high-speed and microscale visualization system (HMVS). The results of the investigation are used to aid in revealing the electrochemical reaction mechanisms and the microfluidics behavior including bubble generation, growth and detachment, which all together play a very important role in the optimization of the design of PEMECs. The effects of operating parameters such as current density, temperature and pressure on the electrochemical reactions and the microfluidics are determined and analyzed by mathematical models of PEMECs, which also match the experimental results. Improved understanding of the electrochemical reactions and microfluidics in PEMECs can not only help to optimize their designs, but can also help advance many other applications in energy, environment and defense research fields.

▼ Transportation of multiphase fluids using carbon steel pipelines is ubiquitous in the oil and gas industry. These pipelines are prone to internal corrosion when exposed to an aqueous CO2 environment. The mitigation of CO2 corrosion can be achieved by the use of organic corrosion inhibitors or by reliance on formation of protective corrosion product layers. However, the mechanisms for their potential failure in flow conditions are still being debated.Wall shear stress induced by turbulent multiphase flow is considered an important parameter in CO2 corrosion as it has been claimed to be responsible for the removal of protective corrosion product layers and corrosion inhibitor films. In this study, a floating element wall probe was used to directly measure the wall shear stresses in single-phase and horizontal gas-liquid two-phase flow, instead of the more common indirect measurement of the wall shear stress. Wall shear stress measurements were complemented by high speed video camera recordings of the flow field. In single-phase pipe and channel flow, the wall shear stress was in good agreement with empirical shear stress calculations. In two-phase pipe flow, video-recorded observations confirmed that the high wall shear stress pulses captured by the probe in the slug flow pattern were in sync with the passage of liquid slugs; the highest measured wall shear stress values were of the order of 100 Pa. Wall shear stress values in the slug body varied along the inner pipe circumference with the top of the pipe having the highest values and the bottom of the pipe having the lowest values. The maximum wall shear stress measured was about 2 to 4 times higher than the calculated mean wall shear stress in the slug body, obtained by using the mixture velocity, which can serve as a guideline for slug flow modeling. Findings suggest that the wall shear stress alone, produced in single-phase and multiphase flow patterns covered in the present study, is insufficient to mechanically damage the protective corrosion product layers or corrosion inhibitor films. In addition, corrosion experiments with an imidazoline-based inhibitor were performed on X65 pipeline steel in a thin channel flow cell (TCFC). Local flow velocities were up to 28 m/s with wall shear stresses up to 4.8 kPa. Electrochemical measurements, surface analysis and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) were used as diagnostic tools. Localized corrosion was observed on a protrusion in the flow cell and depended on local flow conditions and inhibitor concentration. Overall, the wall shear stress was unable to affect performance of corrosion inhibitors. However, the low static pressure at the protrusion caused cavitation with bubble collapse leading to accelerated desorption of inhibitor from the steel surface, which explained the localized corrosion. An excess amount of inhibitor was found to mitigate localized corrosion by cavitation. Advisors/Committee Members: Nesic, Srdjan (Advisor).

▼ Atomization characteristics of liquid fuel sprays control combustion efficiency and emissions in engines. The present work is motivated by the need to study the atomization and spray structure of vegetable oil biofuels for which no data in the literature exists. In this work, various laser-based diagnostic techniques such as laser shadowgraphy, Particle/Droplet Image Analysis (PDIA) and Laser Sheet Dropsizing (LSD) are applied for studying atomization characteristics, tip penetration, droplet size and liquid volume fraction of Pongamia vegetable oil (SVO) and its blends with diesel. A constant volume high pressure spray visualization chamber is designed and fabricated to study SVO sprays at high gas pressure and temperature conditions. This optical chamber can be used for gas pressures up to 60 bar and temperatures up to 600 K. Optical access inside the chamber is provided through four quartz windows to perform various optical spray diagnostic studies. A high pressure spray injection facility based on components of common rail diesel injection system is designed. This facility can provide an injection pressure of up to 1700 bar with independent control over injection duration and timing. A marked difference is observed between diesel and SVO spray structures under atmospheric gas pressure condition. A very interesting observation related to the behavior of 100% SVO fuel when sprayed into atmospheric pressure is the presence of an intact liquid core even at injection pressure as high as 1600 bar. The presence of liquid core at high injection pressures is attributed to the high viscosity of SVOs and the non-Newtonian behavior of these oils under high pressure and shear. The spray characterization of the oil and its blends at high gas pressure shows that although the atomization is dramatically different from that at atmospheric gas pressure, it is still incomplete even at very high injection pressures. For a gas pressure of 30 bar, it is observed that the Sauter Mean Diameter (SMD) for Pongamia oil is more than twice that of diesel. A new method of simultaneously obtaining two-dimensional droplet size and quantitative liquid volume fraction data in sprays has been developed. Measurements with this method reveal a higher liquid volume fraction at the central axis of spray for Pongamia oil compared to that of diesel indicating potentially poor air-fuel mixing. The experimental data obtained and the spray tip penetration correlations developed for the vegetable oils and blends serve as useful inputs for fuel injection and engine system designers.

▼ An important aspect in the design of buildings is the comfort of the occupants inside the building. Although many factors can affect comfort, the factor of particular interest in this research is the indoor humidity level. High indoor humidity levels can make the indoor air feel stuffy at warm temperatures and reduce the amount of moisture that can be removed from a person’s body, making a person feel warm. On the other hand, low indoor humidity levels can cause health problems such as dry eyes and sore throats. In addition to the comfort implications of improperly maintaining indoor humidity levels, the building itself can suffer from mould growth and rotting materials at high humidity levels. This thesis presents the first research on a novel panel that can simultaneously transfer heat and moisture to/from an occupied space. The panel is referred to as a heat and moisture transfer panel (HAMP). A HAMP is similar in design to a radiant ceiling panel, but uses a liquid desiccant as the heat and moisture transfer medium and the surface of the panel is made of a semi-permeable membrane. A HAMP can be installed into a space and heat and moisture will be transferred between the liquid desiccant and the space air, through the membrane. The main objectives of this thesis are to design a prototype HAMP and to measure the performance of the HAMP under different operating conditions. The performance of the HAMP is quantified by the sensible and latent effectivenesses, as well as the total heat and mass flux between the HAMP and the air in the test section. The results of the experiments show that the HAMP is able to simultaneously transfer heat and moisture with the air in the test section under all operating conditions. The sensible and latent effectivenesses of the HAMP are higher when the air in the test section becomes unstable, due to the natural convection in the duct (sensible effectiveness ≈ 15%, latent effectiveness ≈ 40%). These include cases of cooling and/or dehumidification. The sensible and latent effectivenesses of the HAMP are lower when forced convection is dominant in the test section (sensible effectiveness ≈ 5%, latent effectiveness ≈ 25%). This occurs during cases of heating and/or humidification. The presence of natural convection in the test section is confirmed with flow visualization photographs. The photographs show laminar boundary layer flow during the stable airflow cases, and the presence of convection roll cells during the unstable airflow cases. The total heat flux increases with an increase in the temperature difference between the panel and the air and the mass flux increases with an increase in the humidity ratio difference between the panel and the air. For a temperature difference of 10°C, the prototype HAMP can provide ~4 W/m2 of cooling. This is small compared to the actual cooling loads that would be required in a space. The HAMP is able to provide enough moisture transfer to remove the moisture generated by one person (~70 g/hr), with ~2 m2 of panel surface… Advisors/Committee Members: Simonson, Carey J., Torvi, David A., Schoenau, Greg, Besant, Robert W., Tabil, Lope G., Mohamad, Abdulmajeed.

▼ First time in situ observations of sintering behavior occurring in barium titanate were carried out in the environmental scanning electron microscope (ESEM). FEI XL-30 ESEM-FEG/LaB6 environmental scanning electron microscopes equipped with a 1500°C hot-stage furnace accessory were used to perform these studies. Barium excess Barium titanate powders (Ba/Ti ratio 1.004) processed using conventional ceramic routes were sintered in the ESEM at temperatures between 1320°C and 1375°C. Silica additions to the powders facilitated observation of liquid phase sintering behavior. Dynamic observations of the materials were made starting at ambient temperatures and following a typical furnace sintering cycle with temperatures exceeding 1300°C. Both solid state and liquid phase sintering mechanisms were observed in the samples with the dynamics of these mechanisms exhibiting similarities found in ex-situ studies in the literature. In all materials, no noticeable changes were observed to occur at temperatures below ~800°C. Phosphate contamination occurred in initial experiments which resulted in vapor-solid interactions with mixed phase end products being formed. A contamination mechanism has been proposed. Corrective measures were implemented to allow sample surface observations. Solid state sintering experiments performed in the ESEM result in poor sintering and densification. This was attributed to changes in the defect chemistry of the sample in the ESEM chamber caused by low vacuum water vapor atmospheres used in the experiments. Liquid phase sintering observations performed in the ESEM resulted in dense largegrained samples with microstructural similarities to conventional furnacesintered samples. Instrument capabilities allowed the capture of rapid sequences at high resolution. Fluid real-time sequences studying ongoing sintering phenomenon were obtained, vastly enhancing the ability to study these dynamic processes in real time. Platinum support materials were observed to vaporize and condense on sample surfaces at temperatures exceeding 1300°C. The use of field emission instrumentation over LaB6 sources is recommended due to their improved imaging characteristics in harsh environments. These studies have clearly demonstrated the versatility of the ESEM techniques and its ability to probe into harsh research environments providing the researcher with a valuable tool to understand them.
