The droplet heat and mass transfer processes are important for liquid spraying technologies, which were investigated when applying the theoretical and numerical modelling and experimental methods. In this work, results of experimental research on the heating of water droplets in purified biofuel flue gas were presented and analyzed. In experimental investigation, the purified biofuel flue gas is replaced by additionally humidified airflow. The experiment methods and results processing are discussed and provided. Impact of air heating and additional humidification was estimated. While heating and additionally humidifying the air flow was focused on boundary conditions in condense economizers, when the flue gas temperature is 20-100°C and water vapor volume fraction is 0-0.2.
Currently used nonprehensile manipulation systems that are based on vibrational techniques employ temporal (vibrational) asymmetry, spatial asymmetry, or force asymmetry to provide and control a directional motion of a body. This paper presents a novel method of nonprehensile manipulation of miniature and microminiature bodies on a harmonically oscillating platform by creating a frictional asymmetry through dynamic dry friction control. To theoretically verify the feasibility of the method and to determine the control parameters that define the motion characteristics, a mathematical model was developed, and modeling was carried out. Experimental setups for miniature and microminiature bodies were developed for nonprehensile manipulation by dry friction control, and manipulation experiments were carried out to experimentally verify the feasibility of the proposed method and theoretical findings. By revealing how characteristic control parameters influence the direction and velocity, the modeling results theoretically verified the feasibility of the proposed method. The experimental investigation verified that the proposed method is technically feasible and can be applied in practice, as well as confirmed the theoretical findings that the velocity and direction of the body can be controlled by changing the parameters of the function for dynamic dry friction control. The presented research enriches the classical theories of manipulation methods on vibrating plates and platforms, as well as the presented results, are relevant for industries dealing with feeding, assembling, or manipulation of miniature and microminiature bodies.
