Enhancement of Aeroengine Combustion Chamber Air Cooling Holes Design for Emission Reduction and Pattern Factor Control by Masoud Hajivand

“…Further, the combustion of liquid kerosene (C10H22) with air, subsequent to the evaporation of fuel droplets, was simulated, and the Rosin-Rammler droplet size distribution was used in spray modeling for accurate depiction of fuel atomization. Both thermal and prompt formation mechanisms of NOx were considered, while k-ε model for turbulence was adapted to capture the nature of emission. …”

Incorporation of Capecitabine Into Extended Chain of N-Acylated Chitosan Carrier by Anita Marlina, Misni Misran, Witta Kartika Restu

“…X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results show that there is no nitrogen atom in ChC18, which means that the acyl group is oriented inward and bound to the stearoyl group via van der Waals forces. …”

Pollution Characteristics of Sb, As, Hg, Pb, Cd, and Zn in Soils from Different Zones of Xikuangshan Antimony Mine by Saijun Zhou, Andrew Hursthouse, Tengshu Chen

“…Sixty soil samples from the four zones were taken for experimental work, and the contents and morphological characteristics of the six potentially toxic elements (PTEs) such as Sb, As, Hg, Pb, Cd, and Zn in the soil samples were measured by using a hydride generation atomic fluorescence spectrometer (AFS-9700). The results show that the soil of the mine area is seriously polluted. …”

MILK FATTY ACID COMPOSITION IN HOLSTEIN COWS UNDER CHRONIC HEAT STRESS CONDITIONS by V. Danchuk, S. Midyk, V. Korniyenko, O. Izhboldina, N. Cherniy, А. Sydelnykov, V. Postoi, R. Mylostyvyi

“…The increase in the relative content of milk fatty acids in Holstein cows at THI of 74 occurs mainly due to fatty acids with 18 carbon atoms in the chain. Thus, the relative content of C18:1n9c under conditions of chronic heat stress (THI 74) was 26.75±1.27, this value is 4.07% higher than in milk collected in May at THI of 66 and by 4.21% higher than in milk collected in November at THI of 58.…”

Improving of Surface Quality of Metal Reflector Mirrors Machined by Single Point Diamond Turning by G. A. Gusakov, G. V. Sharonov

“…The quality control of the surface treatment of the manufactured reflector mirrors was carried out by atomic force microscopy. The reflectivity and radiation resistance of these samples were also investigated.It is shown that an important problem in the manufacture of optical elements from aluminum alloys is the inhomogeneity of the structure of the initial material, associated with the presence of intermetallic inclusions. …”
