Halide perovskites are promising light-absorbing materials for high-efficiency solar cells, while the crystalline phase of halide perovskites may influence the device's efficiency and stability. In this work, we investigated the thermally driven…
Many systems on our planet shift abruptly and irreversibly from the desired state to an undesired state when forced across a “tipping point”. Some examples are mass extinctions within ecosystems, cascading failures in infrastructure systems, and…
Presented here is experimental and theoretical work on phase transitions and separation time scales for CO2-crude oil mixtures with CO2 content ranging from pure to 79 mol %. The experimental work was performed using the wheel flow loop located at…
In order to ensure the safe and economic operation of waxy crude oil transportation process, the micro-dynamic mechanism and thermodynamic characteristics of wax precipitation process at nanoscale are necessary to be revealed. Here, we established…
Water is an inorganic, non-flammable and easily available phase change material (PCM), which can be utilized for cold thermal energy storage (TES) application (melting point at 0C). Although water has a specific heat of about 4.18Jg1K1 and has…
Presented here is experimental and theoretical work on phase transitions and separation time scales for CO2-crude oil mixtures with CO2 content ranging from pure to 79 mol %. The experimental work was performed using the wheel flow loop located at…
Due to the influence of geological and engineering factors, the irregular wellbore is commonly found in the field operation, resulting in a low slurry displacement efficiency. Compared with experimental and analytical methods, numerical simulation is…
