Organic fluids

The equations presented herein do not include any viscosity correction to reflect the difference between the viscosity at the wall temperature and the bulk fluid temperature. This effect is generally negligible, except at low temperatures for organic fluids having viscosities that are strongly temperature dependent. For such conditions, the values tabulated in Table 2 should be appropriately modified. [Pg.508]

Organic fluids also are mixed with water to serve as secondary coolants. The most commonly used fluid is ethylene glycol. Others include propjiene glycol, methanol (qv), ethanol, glycerol (qv), and 2-propanol (see Propyl alcohols, isopropyl alcohol). These solutions must also be inhibited against corrosion. Some of these, particularly methanol, may form flammable vapor concentrations at high temperatures. [Pg.509]

Liquid Metals. If operating temperatures rise above 250—300°C, where many organic fluids decompose and water exerts high vapor pressure, hquid metals have found some use, eg, mercury for limited appHcation in turbines sodium, especially its low melting eutectic with 23 wt % potassium, as a hydrauhc fluid and coolant in nuclear reactors and potassium, mbidium, cesium, and gallium in some special uses.

Fig. 15. Schematic of the interfacial polymerization process. The microporous film is first impregnated with an aqueous amine solution. The film is then treated with a multivalent cross-linking agent dissolved in a water-immiscible organic fluid, such as hexane or Freon-113. An extremely thin polymer film...

At slightly higher pressures up to a reduced pressure of about 0.4, the truncated virial equation, Eq. (2-67), is commonly used for all types of organic fluids. [Pg.399]

These are molecules which contain both hydrophilic and hydrophobic units (usually one or several hydrocarbon chains), such that they love and hate water at the same time. Familiar examples are lipids and alcohols. The effect of amphiphiles on interfaces between water and nonpolar phases can be quite dramatic. For example, tiny additions of good amphiphiles reduce the interfacial tension by several orders of magnitude. Amphiphiles are thus very efficient in promoting the dispersion of organic fluids in water and vice versa. Added in larger amounts, they associate into a variety of structures, filhng the material with internal interfaces which shield the oil molecules—or in the absence of oil the hydrophobic parts of the amphiphiles—from the water [3]. Some of the possible structures are depicted in Fig. 1. A very rich phase... [Pg.632]

The data for organic fluids and low temperature nitrogen fit. However, methanol data gives coefficients many times higher. [Pg.207]

Non-freezing solutions can also be based on organic fluids, principally the glycols, of which ethylene and propylene glycol are in general use. Where contact with food is possible, propylene glycol (see Figure 12.4) should be used. [Pg.150]

It was thus possible to extend point data to homogeneous areas and to determine with a higher degree of precision the nature of the anomalies revealed, whether due to structural anisotropy or to the presence of organic fluids in the subsurface. [Pg.9]

The quasi-chemical model was derived by Guggenheim for application to organic fluid mixtures. Applying it to crystalline solids is not immediate, because it necessitates conceptual modifications of operative parameters, such as the above-mentioned contact factor. Empirical methods of derivation of the above parameters, based on structural data, are available in the literature (Green, 1970 Sax-ena, 1972). We will not treat this model, because it is of scanty application in geochemistry. More exhaustive treatment can be found in Guggenheim (1952) and Ganguly and Saxena (1987). [Pg.165]

If pure water is shaken, no bubbles are observed at the surface. All pure organic fluids exhibit no bubble formation on shaking. It means that, as an air bubble rises to the surface of the liquid, it merely exits into the air. However, if an aqueous detergent (surface-active substance) solution is shaken or an air bubble is created under the surface, a bubble is formed (Figure 8.1). [Pg.161]

Two trace element studies are being done to answer some of these questions. The first study, funded by the Environmental Protection Agency, concerns coal washing and is designed to determine the distribution of certain trace elements in coal. The various specific gravity fractions of coal are separated by a sink-float procedure. Commercially available organic fluids are used as the separation media. [Pg.147]
