The adhesion, activation and aggregation of platelets play an important role in the primary thrombus formation. In present paper, platelets, plasma, normal and injured endodermis of the vessel are modeled as particles with different characteristics and simulated by the Moving Particle Semi-implicit (MPS) method. In order to simulate the aggregation and adhesion of platelets on the injured endodermis of the vessel, a mechanical adhesion force model is introduced according to the inter-molecular force and physiological interaction between platelets and endodermis is modeled by the stretch and rotation of a spring. By this method, the formation of primary thrombus at the injured endodermis of horizontal and bending vessel is numerically reproduced. Results show that the thrombus forms quickly and the number of adhered platelets will not increase if thrombus has been formed. Through the analysis of flow field, the platelets go through the vibration, steady and potential break free process. Compared with horizontal vessel, the thrombus formation at the bending vessel is slower.

Since the opacifier-loaded silica aerogel composites have strong ability to inhibit radiant heat transfer compared to the pure silica aerogel, they can improve effectively the insulation performance at high temperature conditions and have been used extensively as thermal insulation materials in a variety of industrial applications. This paper developed a theoretical model to predict the radiant performance of opacifiers by using the Mie scattering theory, Beer law and a radiant heat transfer equations. The model was used to calculate the radiant performance of carbon black opacifier with various particle diameters and the radiant performance of three opacifiers, carbon black, SiC and ZrO2. The results showed that the opacifier-loaded silica aerogel composites had much higher extinction coefficient than the pure silica aerogel in a range of 3-7.5 μm wave band or in medium and high temperature ranges, which significantly improved the insulation performance of composites. With a fixed opacifier mass fraction, the optimal particle diameter was 2-3 μm for carbon black opacifier. Among the three opacifiers, carbon black opacifier had better opaque property than that of SiC and ZrO2 opacifiers. Due to poor thermostability for carbon black opacifier at high temperature conditions, the optimal material design for opacifier-loaded silica aerogel composites should be as follows: SiC or ZrO2 are added on high temperature side of aerogel and carbon black is added on low temperature side.

Radiation distribution study is of importance for the design and the optimization of fluidized photocatalytic tubular reactor which has been developed for photocatalytic hydrogen production under direct solar light. In the present study, the radiation distribution in such reactor was successfully simulated by adopting Monte Carlo method and the six-flux radiation absorption-scattering models. Both the incident angles of light around the reactor and the concentration distribution of photocatalyst were taken into account. Our analysis indicates that the angles and the intensity of the incident rays significantly affect the radiation distribution. Moreover, it was also found that the equilibrium radiation distribution has a close relationship with the density distribution of the photocatalysts. The simulated results are expected to be helpful for obtaining the optimal operating parameters for solar photocatalytic hydrogen production.

A model for wave properties, such as wave velocity and amplitude in churn flow has been developed in this paper. The results demonstrate that the wave behavior differs from that in annular flow. In addition, the critical amplitude A c decreases with the increase in gas flow rate. Moreover, the maximum amplitude A max decreases with the increasing of gas mass flux but increase with the increasing of liquid mass flux. The average absolute deviations (AAD) for A c and A max are 16.29% and 7.10%, respectively.
