Simulation of collagen solution flow in rectangular capillary
Kysela, Bohuš; Skočilas, J.; Zitny, R.; Stancl, J.; Houska, M.; Landfeld, A.
2017 - English
The viscoelastic properties of foods and polymers can be evaluated from flow of the material in capillary with specified dimension and shape. The extrusion rheometer equipped by capillary with rectangular cross-section was used for determination of the rheological behaviour of water collagen solution. The measurements of the axial profiles in longitudinal direction of the total stresses at capillary wall were performed for various shear rates. The linear viscoelastic model of Oldroyd B type: White-Metzner model was used for simulation of fluid flow in OpenFOAM software package. The simulations describe the effect of relaxation time on wall total stress in convergent-divergent capillary.

The minimum record time for PIV measurement in a vessel agitated by a Rushton turbine
Šulc, R.; Ditl, P.; Fořt, I.; Jašíková, D.; Kotek, M.; Kopecký, V.; Kysela, Bohuš
2017 - English
In PIV studies published in the literature focusing on the investigation of the flow field in an agitated vessel the record time is ranging from the tenths and the units of seconds. The aim of this work was to determine minimum record time for PIV measurement in a vessel agitated by a Rushton turbine that is necessary to obtain relevant results of velocity field. The velocity fields were measured in a fully baffled cylindrical flat bottom vessel 400 mm in inner diameter agitated by a Rushton turbine 133 mm in diameter using 2-D Time Resolved Particle Image Velocimetry in the impeller Reynolds number range from 50 000 to 189 000. This Re range secures the fully-developed turbulent flow of agitated liquid. Three liquids of different viscosities were used as the agitated liquid. On the basis of the analysis of the radial and axial components of the mean- and fluctuation velocities measured outside the impeller region it was found that dimensionless minimum record time is independent of impeller Reynolds number and is equalled N. t(Rmin) = 103 +/- 19.

2016 - English
Carbon nanotubes are exceptional nano-objects with respect to their remarkable properties, holding great potential in new polymeric materials design with unique characteristics. To illustrate it, the conventional glass reinforced epoxy composite is combined with a layer of entangled network of carbon nanotubes deposited on polyurethane non-woven membrane. The prepared nano-composite is studied for their diverse mjulti-functional applications involving extension and compression strain sensing composite, remoulding by means of resistance Joule heating and radiating as a planar micro strip antenna operating at frequencies of 2MHz up to 4GHz.

Spinnability of PEO solutions with respect to their aging
Zelenková, Jana; Peer, Petra; Filip, Petr
2013 - English
Non - negligible portion of pol ymer commodity suffers from ageing that participates in sometimes significant changes of products attributes. Rheology represents a useful tool for a description of this process. The aim of this contribution is to evaluate possible ageing of PEO solution ( polyethylen e oxide ( M w =300,000 g/mol) dissolved in water at 10 wt.% concentration) based both on rheological characterization and on quality of electrospun fibres. Rheological measurements in steady shear and oscillatory modes were carried out using a rota tional rheometer MCR 501 (Anton Paar, Austria) equipped with the concentric cylinders geometry. The electrospinning measurements were executed with the help of a proposed laboratory device. The tip - to - collector distance attained 20 cm, applied voltage rang ed from 20 to 30 kV. The obtained electrospun fibres were analysed using a scanning electron microscope (VEGA 3, Tescan, Czech Republic). Both types of measurements were carried out in the period of several months during which the solution studied was plac ed in a dark and tempered box (25°C). The measurements indicate no ageing impact on rheological characteristics or quality of electrospun fibres. This guarantees more or less the identical quality of non - woven textiles prepared from PEO solutions regardles s of time period during which the solutions are deposited.

Influence of the spheroid prolongation on the drag force
Lukerchenko, Nikolay; Keita, Ibrahima; Kvurt, Y.; Miles, Jiří
2011 - English
The drag force acting on a spheroid moving perpendicularly to its axis of rotation in water was studied experimentally. Along the spheroid axis, which is normal to its axis of rotation, a round narrow hole was bored. The spheroid moved along a thin vertical thread stretched in water. A video system recorded the spheroid motion and the spheroid velocity was determined from the record. The drag force coefficient was calculated from the balance of forces acting on the spheroid. Two oblate, two prolate spheroids and one sphere with ratio of the axes 0.67; 0.81; 1.33; 2 and I (sphere), respectively, with approximately the same volumes, were used. The friction coefficient between the thread and spheroid was determined from the comparison of the experimental and calculated motions of the sphere, for which the drag force coefficient is known. The dependence of the drag force coefficient of the spheroid on the ratio of its semi-axes was obtained.

Vliv vývoje vegetační pokrývky v povodí na režim zdrojů povrchové a podzemní vody
Buchtele, Josef; Tesař, Miroslav
2011 - Czech
Proměnlivost vodního režimu je ovlivňována obvykle nejen změnami vegetační pokrývky v ročním cyklu, avšak rovněž vývojem vegetace v rozpětí třeba i mnoha desetiletí. Z toho plyne, že výsledná evapotranspirační potřeba závisí na současných klimatických podmínkách, ale významné jsou rovněž zabezpečení půdní vláhy a oscilace solární radiace. Simulace srážko-odtokového procesu byly užity se záměrem sledovat roli vyvíjející se vegetační pokrývky území a dlouhodobých klimatických fluktuací. Rozdíly mezi měřenými a simulovanými odtoky v relativně dlouhých obdobích jsou vhodným nástrojem pro oceňování změn vodního režimu, které jsou ovlivněny rovněž změnami evapotranspirační potřeby. Variability of water regime is influenced usually not only by the changes of vegetation cover in the annual cycle, but also by the vegetation development in the span even of several decades. The resulting evapotranspiration requirement depends on actual climatic conditions; moreover the needs of soil moisture and the oscillation of solar radiation are also significant. The simulations of rainfall–runoff process have been used with the intention to follow the role of the developing vegetation cover and long-term climatic fluctuations. The differences between monitored and simulated runoff in the relatively long periods are the possible tool for the appraisal of changes in the water regime, which are influenced also by the changes of evapotranspiration need.

Hodnocení hydrologické a klimatické funkce porostů rychle rostoucích dřevin pro energetické využití
Weger, J.; Šír, Miloslav
2011 - Czech
Mikroklimatické změny v porostech rychle rostoucích dřevin (RRD) oproti travním porostům spočívají ve snižování maximálních denních teplot přízemního vzduchu ve slunečných a teplých dnech až o 4 až 5 ºC, je-li k dispozici voda v půdě pro transpiraci. Minimální teploty přízemního vzduchu jsou ovlivněny méně významně, zpravidla jsou vyšší pod porosty RRD. Denní vlhkost vzduchu v horkých dnech je zpravidla větší v porostech RRD. Teploty půdy jsou ve vegetační sezóně soustavně nižší pod porosty RRD než pod travním porostem. Snížení denních maxim teploty vzduchu a soustavné snížení teploty půdy pod porosty RRD je dáno převážně chladícím efektem transpirace. Stínící efekt vysoké vegetace není dominantní příčinou snížení teplot. Velkoplošné výsadby plantáží RRD na místě dřívějších travních porostů nebudou mít pozorovatelný vliv na teplotu krajiny ani na hydrologický koloběh. Nebudou způsobovat vznik půdního sucha a redukci odtoku vody z krajiny. Microclimatic changes in plantations of fast growing trees (FGT) against grassland consist in reducing the max. daily air temperatures of ground in sunny and warm days to 4 to 5º C, when is available soil water for transpiration. Minimum temperatures of ground air are significantly less affected; they are generally higher under canopy of FGT. Daily air humidity on hot days is usually greater in plantations of FGT than in grassland. In the growing season, soil temperatures are lower in plantations of FGT than in the stands under grass cover. Reduction of daily air temperatures and soil temperatures under canopy of FGT is mainly due to the cooling effect of transpiration. Shielding effect of high vegetation is not the dominant cause of temperature reduction. Large-scale plantations of FGT will have no observable effect on the temperature of the countryside or on the hydrological cycle. They will not cause land draying and reduction of runoff from the landscape.
