Cerebral aneurysm, a local enlargement of an artery caused by weakness in the wall of a cerebral artery, has the high death rate and disability rate, and is a threat to public health. The forming mechanism of aneurysm is complex, which motivated many researchers to conduct studies in this field. The results indicated that increasing heart frequency can aggravate the oscillation of wall shear stress, and push The growth points of aneurysm along the aneurysm wall, thereby significantly affecting bthe growth and rupture mechanism of aneurysm. In addition, it is found that the curvature of the vessel is the key to induce the secondary vortex in the aneurysm; the secondary vortex increases the magnitude of WSS near the dome of aneurysm, which can cause the rupture of aneurysm dome. there is a linear relationship between the velocity of blood flow and the square root of hear frequency.

The objective of the present work is to investigate the air-water two-phase flow patterns in pipeline-riser system with an S-shaped flexible riser. The test loop with 50 mm ID consists of a horizontal pipeline with 114 m in length, a downward inclined section with 16 m in length, and an S-shaped flexible riser with 24 m in height when downward section inclined at −2° with respective to the horizontal. The inclination angle of the downward section varied from −2° to −5°. The liquid superficial velocity ranged from 0.03 to 1.5 m/s, and the gas superficial velocity from 0.4 to 6.0 m/s. Identification and characterization of flow regimes were attained by pressure at riser-base and liquid holdup at riser top. Severe slugging I, severe slugging II, transition flow and stable flows are observed to exist. flow pattern maps for each declination are presented and the transition criteria are proposed. It's found that as higher liquid and gas velocity is required for the transition of the flow in the pipeline from stratified to intermittent with increasing the declination angle, severe slugging was observed to occur over a wilder range of flow conditions. The effect of riser geometry and separator pressure on the occurrence of the flow patterns was also examined. It shows that the S-bend tends to suppress the initiation of severe slugging.

An improved meshless numerical method (MPS-MAFL) is utilized to simulate single Taylor bubble rising in liquid LBE to study its hydrodynamic characteristics. The computational region is a circular tube in which the liquid is described using discretized particles by un-uniform grid scheme. The gas-liquid interface was approximately treated as a free surface boundary and nonslip conditions are applied on tube wall. Several simulation results and corresponding analysis including Taylor bubble propagation procedure, pressure distribution, velocity profile around bubble nose and in the wake region as well as in the falling film are presented. Some experimental results and CFD numerical simulations from other previous researchers are compared with the present study as validation. The simulation results agree well with both theoretical analysis and experimental results, which demonstrate the reasonable selection of model as well as the accuracy and reliability of moving particle method.

Through constructing micro-scale model, the kinetic of micelles in surfactant solution and the corresponding rheological properties are studied numerically by Brownian dynamics simulation. Rigid osculating multibead rods which can be connected at the endcaps are used to represent micelles. By analysis of potential and frictional effect, the force and kinetic of micelles in shear flow field are studied. The simulated results indicate that flexible micelles elongate along the cylindrical axis with addition of bending potential. As the persistence length increases, the characteristic zero-shear viscosity increases.

Turbulent drag reducing characteristics of CTAC/NaSal aqueous solution (CTAC had same mass concentration with NaSal.) were investigated in a two-dimensional channel of 30 mm height and 375 mm width, which was made of transparent acrylic resin. The measured drag reduction data were scaled up by using Hoyt's scaling method and were compared with other reported drag reduction data for different channel sizes. It could be concluded that both the critical temperature and critical Reynolds number at which turbulent drag reduction of surfactant solution occurred increased with concentration. There was a maximum drag-reduction about 60% for the measured CTAC/NaSal solutions. The Hoyt's scale-up method correlated well the experimental data for different channel heights when the SIS (shearing induced structure) was established very well in surfactant solutions.

In the petroleum refining industry, the fossil fuel used by the atmospheric and vacuum distillation units takes large proportion to the plant-self energy consumption. It is necessary to optimize the system for the energysaving consideration. In this study, the exergy analysis method was utilized to optimize the gas collecting system. It is found that, the water bath furnace was a weak link, so we must improve inlet temperature of the fuel and reduce the number of excess air to enhance the economy of the system and reduce the exergy loss.

Electrospinning has been proved to be a versatile and effective method for manufacturing micro-scale to nano-scale fibers continuously. In this article, CdS/ZnO core/shell nanofibers were prepared successfully by the typical single-nozzle electrospinning, with subsequent simple thermal decomposition. The SEM and TEM results indicated that core-shell fibers with a diameter of 200-350 nm and shell thickness of 50nm were obtained when PVP/zinc acetate/cadmium acetate/thiocarbamide composite nanofibers were calcined at 480°C for 4h. The EDS analysis results showed that the core fiber is CdS and the shell layer is ZnO. Hydrogen evolution measurements from photocatalytic water splitting using the ZnO/CdS core-shell nanofibers as photocatalyst were carried out. The ZnO/CdS core-shell nanofibers demonstrate a much higher ability for H 2 evolution than that of sole CdS or ZnO. The highest H2 evolution rate was up to 354 μmolh-1 g-1.

Mass exchange network (MEN) is an important part of chemical process. Many methods have already been developed for MEN synthesis to increase the producting efficiency, such as minimizing material consumption, optimizing total annualized cost and so on. However, the energy utilization of MEN has scarcely been studied before. This paper introduces exergoeconomic analysis to MEN synthesis. The integrated analysis of energy and economic factors could provide a better guidance for production operation. The most important merit of exergoeconomic analysis is that the MEN synthesis can be further integrated with the energy exchange networks, such as heat and pressure exchange networks. Therefore, the feasibility of exergoeconomic method used in MEN synthesis is studied. A case study of water network synthesis is carried out to reveal the feasibility of exergoeconomic analysis in optimizing MEN. The optimization turns out to be a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem because of the multi-objective and multiconstraint factors. Genetic algorithm (GA) is employed to get a globally optimal solution based on MATLAB program. The calculation shows that the result of MEN exergoeconomic analysis is basically consistent with that of waste minimization, with a little difference according to the energy and economic factors. Therefore, exergoeconomic analysis is proved to have a good performance in solving mass exchange network synthesis problems.
