Automation of data processing and calculation of retention parameters and thermodynamic data for gas chromatography
The analyses of automation patterns is performed and the programming solution for the automation of data processing of the chromatographic data and their further information storage with a help of a software package, Mathcad and MS Excel spreadsheets, is developed. The offered approach concedes the ability of data processing algorithm modification and does not require any programming experts participation. The approach provides making a measurement of the given time and retention volumes, specific retention volumes, a measurement of differential molar free adsorption energy, and a measurement of partial molar solution enthalpies and isosteric heats of adsorption. The developed solution is focused on the appliance in a small research group and is tested on the series of some new gas chromatography sorbents. More than 20 analytes were submitted to calculation of retention parameters and thermodynamic sorption quantities. The received data are provided in the form accessible to comparative analysis, and they are able to find sorbing agents with the most profitable properties to solve some concrete analytic issues
The time-frequency method of signal analysis in internal combustion engine diagnostics
The paper presents the results of the study of applicability of time-frequency correlation functions to solving the problems of internal combustion engine fault diagnostics. The proposed methods are theoretically justified and experimentally tested. In particular, the method's applicability is illustrated by the example of specially generated signals that simulate the vibration of an engine both during the normal operation and in the case of a malfunction in the system supplying fuel to the cylinders. This method was confirmed during an experiment with an automobile internal combustion engine. The study offers the main findings of the simulation and the experiment and highlights certain characteristic features of time-frequency autocorrelation functions that allow one to identify malfunctions in an engine's cylinder. The possibility in principle of using time-frequency correlation functions in function testing of the internal combustion engine is demonstrated. The paper's conclusion proposes further research directions including the application of the method to diagnosing automobile gearboxes
CGM properties in VELA and NIHAO simulations; the OVI ionization mechanism: dependence on redshift, halo mass and radius
We study the components of cool and warm/hot gas in the circumgalactic medium
(CGM) of simulated galaxies and address the relative production of OVI by
photoionization versus collisional ionization, as a function of halo mass,
redshift, and distance from the galaxy halo center. This is done utilizing two
different suites of zoom-in hydro-cosmological simulations, VELA (6 halos;
) and NIHAO (18 halos; to ), which provide a broad theoretical basis
because they use different codes and physical recipes for star formation and
feedback. In all halos studied in this work, we find that collisional
ionization by thermal electrons dominates at high redshift, while
photoionization of cool or warm gas by the metagalactic radiation takes over
near . In halos of and above, collisions become
important again at , while photoionization remains significant down to
for less massive halos. In halos with , at most of the photoionized OVI is in a
warm, not cool, gas phase (~K). We also find that
collisions are dominant in the central regions of halos, while photoionization
is more significant at the outskirts, around , even in massive
halos. This too may be explained by the presence of warm gas or, in lower mass
halos, by cool gas inflows
