The application of Cassie equation to microscopic droplets is recently under intense debate because the microdroplet dimension is often of the same order of magnitude as the characteristic size of substrate het
Core/shell microdroplets formation with uniform size is investigated numerically in the co-flow microchannel. The interface and volume fraction contour between three immiscible fluids are captured using a ternary phase-field model. Previous research has
A discussion of the applicability of the growth rate equation to non-stoichiometric precipitation is given in Schwarzer and Peukert (2004b). Due to the stronger dependence of the nucleation rate on supersaturation compared to the growth rate G, more and consequently smaller particles are formed ...

The Fenton reactions are based on the oxidation of Fe2+ to Fe3+, which simultaneously generates the hydroxyl radical (Equation (1)), followed by the reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ (Equation (2)), which allows the regeneration of the catalyst. However, the reaction in which OH• is produced...
This technique has been proven very effective for selecting demulsifiers in the oil and gas field. It measures the efficiency of the demulsifier in separating or breaking emulsion based on equation (1):(1)V%=VOV×100Where V% is the separation efficiency, Vo is the volume of separated water...
Fractal geometry estimates have proven useful in studying the growth strategies of fungi in response to different environments on soil or on agar substrates, but their use in mycelia grown submerged is still rare. In the present study, the effects of cer
(Fig.3b). MODFLOW-2005 considers laminar flow in the continuum (calculated by Darcy’s equation), while CFPM1 (Conduit Flow Process Mode 1) considers laminar flow in the continuum (calculated by Darcy’s equation) but also laminar or turbulent flow in a discrete pipe network (calculated by ...
At the beginning of dissolution, all components were dissolved stoichiometrically (Equation (1)). For the dissolution in the N2-degassed water and the CO2-saturated water, the pH of the aqueous phase increases were ascribed to the formation of CaHCO3+, CdHCO3+ and HnCO3(2−n)− (Equatio...
11. The specific heat capacity was obtained using the following equation (eq1):Cps = H s H r · m r m s · Cp r ( eq 1 ) where Cps and Cpr represent the specific heat capacities of the sample and reference material (sapphire=0.959 J g−1 K−1), Hs and Hr ...
