▼ Conventional combustion processes are known to be highly irreversible processes. The potential to obtain useful work from the fuel is degraded during the combustion process. For example, for a reciprocating internal combustion engine, about 20% or more of the potential work from the fuel is destroyed during the combustion process. This potential work is known as availability (a thermodynamic property). The motivation for the current work was to develop a conceptual model of a set of processes related to reciprocating engines that would eliminate this destruction of availability. One conceptual model, proposed by Keenan, suggested that a preselected set of ?reactants? could be compressed (at constant composition) to a high temperature and pressure. At this high temperature and pressure, the ?reactants? would be in chemical equilibrium. At this point, the ?reactants? would be expanded back to the original volume. The expansion process would consist of a ?shifting? chemical equilibrium such that the composition during expansion would continue to change. At the end of the compression and expansion, net work would be available without destroying any of the work potential of the fuel. The purpose of the current work was to develop a quantitative model of this concept, and to use the model in a series of computations to examine the effects of temperature, pressure, and other parameters on the work production capability of the concept. The concept was studied for eight different fuels for various conditions. In general, the net work output increased as the temperature, pressure and compression ratio increased. For low compression temperatures and pressures, the concept resulted in a small amount of net work produced without destroying any fuel availability. For sufficiently high compression pressure and temperature (e.g., 10 MPa and 6000 K, respectively), however, the thermal efficiency was ~28% for isooctane and was ~40% for hydrogen and methane, for air as the oxidant, an equivalence ratio of 1.0, and a compression ratio of 18. Although the temperatures and pressures considered are well beyond practical values for the materials and designs of today, the general result of the study is that conditions can be identified to eliminate the combustion irreversibility.

▼ Material degradation occurs as a result of irreversible dissipative processes and forces. Various forms of degradation mechanisms exist such as friction, chemical reactions, plasticity, dislocation movements and corrosion all irreversibly leading to failure of a particular system or component. The first and second laws of thermodynamics describe states of a system from the perspective of energy content and exchanges. The first law prescribes energy conservation while the second law introduces the concept of irreversibility in systems as thermodynamic energies decrease, also known as entropy. It has been shown severally that entropy generation accompanies all degradation mechanisms simply by the irreversible nature of the dissipative processes involved. Hence, predicting and quantifying the effect of these processes based on accurate estimate of entropy produced led to the formulation of the Degradation-Entropy Generation (DEG) Theorem by Michael Bryant, Michael Khonsari and Frederick Ling (2008). The DEG theorem also establishes that if a critical value of degradation measure exists, at which failure occurs, there must also exist critical values of accumulated irreversible entropies, and the relationship between them has also been formulated in an independent study in Russia. A close look at 2 classical theories: Holm’s wear equation, w = kNx/H (subsequently modified to the more commonly used Archard’s equation) and Coulomb friction law, F = μN, shows a direct proportionality between wear and energy dissipated by friction, w ∝ Fx. Application of the DEG theorem to a similar sliding friction between two surfaces and the resulting wear characterized by the accompanying entropy generated (or energy dissipated) is shown to define an equivalent wear coefficient k as the Holm-Archard equation. Currently, this study focuses on further development and validation of the DEG theorem primarily in the area of its application to friction wear, grease degradation, battery ageing and fatigue analysis. A consistent thermodynamic approach for evaluating entropy generation accumulation is proposed. An investigation into the dissipative processes relevant to the degradation mechanisms is carried out for correlation to entropy generation. In addition to mathematical formulations, this work includes theorem verification using empirical fatigue data from previously published studies as well as seminal work - new battery and grease experiments to measure DEG parameters.

▼ Understanding protein stability and folding is of central importance in chemistry, biology, and medicine. Despite its importance, a molecular level understanding of protein stability still remains illusive due to the complexity of the system. In this study, we employed protein-like polypeptides to study several aspects of protein stability in different aqueous environments. The model system employed here is elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs). First, the modulation of the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of neutral ELPs was investigated in the presence of 11 sodium salts that span the Hofmeister series for anions. It was found that the hydrophobic collapse/aggregation of these ELPs generally followed the series. Specifically, kosmotropic anions decreased the LCST by polarizing interfacial water molecules involved in hydrating amide groups on the ELPs. By contrast, chaotropic anions lowered the LCST through a surface tension effect. Additionally, chaotropic anions showed salting-in properties at low salt concentrations that were related to the saturation binding of anions with the biopolymers. These overall mechanistic effects were also compared to the results previously found for the hydrophobic collapse and aggregation of poly(N-isoproplyacrylamide). A positively charged ELP, ELP KV6-112, was used as a next model system. We observed both inverse and direct Hofmeister effects on LCST with five chaotropic salts. Next, the solvent isotope effects on the LCST of ELPs were investigated as a function of ELP chain length and guest residue chemistry using D2O and H2O. Differences in the LCST values with heavy and light water were correlated with secondary structure formation of the polypeptide chains which was quantified by circular dichroism, FTIR, and differential scanning calorimetry measurements. It was found that there is a great change in the LCST values between H2O and D2O for those polypeptides which form the greatest amount of b-spiral structure. This study suggests that hydrogen bonding rather than hydrophobicity is the key factor in the stabilization of ELPs in D2O over H2O. The phase transition property of ELPs can also be applied to development of stimuli responsive biosensor system. In this study, we employed ELP-conjugate solid supported lipid bilayer as a size selective binding sensor.

▼ Heat transfer to small cylinders within a porous media has been experimentally and analytically studied extensively over a varying degree of sample and particle sizes and fluid flow regimes. In general, the observations, trends and empirical correlations developed for these systems do not accurately extrapolate down to small cylinders operating under the packed bed condition. The objective of this research is to develop an empirical correlation that expresses the Nusselt number of small cylinders immersed horizontally within a packed bed subject to forced convection heat transfer, in terms of the pertinent test parameters and material properties.Heat transfer to small cylinders within a porous media has been experimentally and analytically studied extensively over a varying degree of sample and particle sizes and fluid flow regimes. In general, the observations, trends and empirical correlations developed for these systems do not accurately extrapolate down to small cylinders operating under the packed bed condition. The objective of this research is to develop an empirical correlation that expresses the Nusselt number of small cylinders immersed horizontally within a packed bed subject to forced convection heat transfer, in terms of the pertinent test parameters and material properties.A set of seven small cylinders ranging in size from 1.27 to 9.53mm were resistively heated within a 311mm diameter lab-scale packed bed. The porous medium in which the samples were immersed was fine alumina oxide sand, with mean particle sizes ranging from 145 to 33μm. Four separate Type K thermocouples were used to measure temperatures at pertinent locations within the apparatus: bed temperature, inner sample temperature, left and right sample temperatures. The apparatus was operated under flow rates up until incipient fluidization. The trends observed in this research compared well with published data, though the correlations developed from other research consistently under-predicted the heat transfer capacity within the packed bed. The correlation that was developed for calculating the mean Nusselt number was accurate to within ±15% for the entire range of tested and published data.

▼ In shell-and-tube heat exchangers there is an unavoidable clearance between the tube bundle and the shell wall. This clearance has a relatively low flow resistance and hence a relatively large proportion of the shell-side flow will pass through it, bypassing the tube bundle and thus avoiding the heat transfer surface. The clearance can be blocked by sealingstrips, which eliminate the gap and divert the bypassing flow back into the tube bundle. This thesis details an investigation of bypass lanes in shell-and-tube heat exchangers and the use of sealing-strips. A model exchanger was designed and built to represent a rectangular tube bank in which the bypass lane width could be varied, sealing-strips could be inserted at various positions along the bypass to block completely the bypass wall-to-tube bundle clearance. For four different tube arrays, the pressure drop and exit bypass mass flow fraction were found for isothermal air flow over a range of total flow rates. Three different tube bank geometries were investigated, i) with no bypass lane (ideal bundle), ii) for a range of bypass lane widths, iii) for a range of bypass lane widths blocked by various numbers of sealing-strips. For one tube array type, flow distributions upstream of the tube bank were found using a hot-wire anemometer; from these results the inlet bypass flow fractions were estimated. From these studies it was found that ESDU generally overestimates the pressure drop coefficients when bypassing is present. Bell's (1960) correction factor generally underestimates the pressure drop coefficient when bypassing is present and overestimates the effect of sealing-strips in increasing the pressure drop over the bank. The rectangular tube bank model was modified to represent a section of a cylindrical exchanger. The effect on the pressure drop over a bank with a non-uniform bypass lane width, in the flow direction, was investigated. It was found that the inverse root mean square of the bypass clearances best characterised the "effective" bypass clearance of the whole bank. Flow visualisation studies were undertaken of shell-side flow in a cylindrical exchanger made of glass in which all leakage flows, except bypassing, were eliminated. From the dye traces produced, the shell-side flow was seen to be highly complex. For the geometries examined it appeared that there was little interchange of flow between the bypass and crossflow stream over the crossflow section of the exchanger, but that the bypass stream became crossflow at each window region, with crossflow transferring into the bypass lane. Sealing-strips were seen to produce a thorough mixing of the bypass and crossflow streams

▼ Developing an understanding of cloud evolution is central to understanding the climate system as a whole. Stratiform cirrus layers play a significant role in the radiative interaction with the climate system. Radiational effects are a driving force in the dynamic evolution of these layers, particularly in determining the areal coverage, vertical distribution, and microphysical properties of the stratiform clouds. The deposition of energy by radiative flux divergence in a cloud layer provides potential energy to drive cloud evolution. This work uses a large eddy simulation model (LESM) to investigate a number of parameters that can be used to easily predict how a cirrus cloud will evolve. This work also includes a study of the sensitivity of formation of mammatus-like features in clouds to the below cloud layer relative humidity. Three distinct modes of cloud evolution were found to occur due to the radiative processes simulated in this study. These modes include isentropic adjustment, mixing, and evaporation/condensation. These modes of evolution were found to be independent of each other in the sense that one mode did not always occur with either of the other two modes. Similarly, the modes of evolution did not always occur in isolation and were found to simultaneously occur in many cases. Two dimensionless numbers are derived in this work that provide a basic framework for understanding the modes of evolution that can be expected of an initial cloud. These dimensionless numbers are found to have strong predictive power for cloud evolution. The simulations of several clouds produced mammatus-like structures forming at the base of the simulated clouds at the end of the model runs. These formations prompted further investigation of the processes that influence mammatus formation. The theory proposed by this work is that the mammatus cloud formation is a radiative process, mediated by the below cloud layer relative humidity. Several simulations were performed to test this theory. The analysis of these simulated clouds determined the varying degree of mammatus formation through a variety of methods. These analytical methods indicate that the below cloud layer relative humidity plays a substantial role in the formation of mammatus clouds by mediating the radiative energy from the warm surface that is available to the cloud.

▼ Fluids confined in porous media play a significant role in many engineering applications. Modeling fluids in oil reservoirs, adsorption based separations, and heterogeneous catalysis requires the accurate prediction of thermodynamic properties at a wide range of conditions. For confined fluids, this task involves accounting for the fluid-solid interactions induced by proximity to a solid wall. Most engineering models are only able to predict average properties of the system and fail to give information related to the heterogeneity of the confined fluid. Such information could be obtained through more rigorous but computationally expensive methods. In this work, an approach of intermediate complexity is developed to determine equilibrium properties of confined fluids, and to obtain local distribution of properties in the system. In this model, the variation of properties throughout the system takes place across regions that are defined depending on the effects present. Regions where confinement effects are important are further discretized into layers to capture local distribution within the confinement. For all elements, the volume is specified together with the temperature, and the total amount of each component. Thus, minimizing the Helmholtz energy determines the number of moles in each element; subsequently other properties are obtained. The Helmholtz energy accounts for internal interactions through an equation of state (EoS), in this work the Peng Robinson EoS is used. Additionally, the Helmholtz energy function includes an external contribution represented by an adsorption potential to account for fluid-solid interactions The Steele 10-4-3 potential was used for the confinement of light hydrocarbons in activated carbon. The prediction of local behavior was found to be comparable to the classical Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. Moreover, the Dubinin-Radushkevich-Astakhov (DRA) potential was utilized to predict confinement of binary and ternary mixtures of methane, nitrogen, carbon dioxide on activated carbon, and the results were found to agree reasonably well with experimental data. Finally, the ability of the framework to model systems where confinement as well as other effects are present is demonstrated through predicting the molar distribution in a porous reservoir where gravitational effects are accounted for.
