“…On the other hand, the hydrate slurry that contains dendritic crystals shows higher viscosity compared with the slurry containing polygonal crystals because the surface area per unit volume of dendritic crystals is larger than that of polygonal crystals. When the viscosity of hydrate slurry is high, pressure loss at the transportation process of O 3 -containing hydrate increases . Moreover, the dehydration efficiency of the hydrate slurry decreases under higher Δ T sub conditions because the size of the individual crystals becomes smaller.…”

“…When the viscosity of hydrate slurry is high, pressure loss at the transportation process of O 3containing hydrate increases. 42 Moreover, the dehydration efficiency of the hydrate slurry decreases under higher ΔT sub conditions because the size of the individual crystals becomes smaller. Therefore, production of O 3 -containing hydrate under lower ΔT sub conditions would be suitable for efficient dewatering and transportation of the hydrate slurry.…”

Preservation using hydrates as a storage medium is the only technology that enables long-term and high-concentration O3 preservation. This study reports the visual observations of the crystal growth of O3-containing hydrate for the process design of the hydrate production plant. We conducted experiments with the feed gas involving O3, O2, and CO2 in the molar ratio of O3:O2:CO2 = 3.4:42.0:52.6. During observations, O3 in the mixed gas remained at 1.31–2.43 mol %, which is comparable to those of the previous experiments. The observed results of hydrate crystal growth dynamics were classified into two types, which are lateral growth along the gas/water interface and growth into the bulk of the liquid water phase. Crystal morphology varied from polygonal to columnar, dendritic, or haze like with increasing subcooling temperature relative to equilibrium. The diversity of the crystal morphology of O3-containing hydrate was comparable to those of O2 + CO2 hydrate and CO2 hydrate. The implications of the obtained results for the operating conditions of an O3-containing hydrate production plant are discussed.

In the present research, a comprehensive analytical framework is proposed for optimal sizing of louvered fin flat tube car radiators. In order to perform optimal sizing, eleven geometric variables, which are all geometric parameters of the radiator, were selected as the design parameters. These variables include large and small diameters of tubes, length and wall thickness of tubes, fins’ pitch, louvers’ pitch on each fin, length of the fin, louver length and height, fin thickness, number of fins and louver angle on fins. The effects of all of these parameters on the cooling capacity and total weight of the radiator are investigated in the form of single objective optimization problems in which cooling capacity should be maximized and total weight of the radiator should be minimized. Using the proposed framework, the cooling capacity of the radiator has increased by about 8.8% compared to the base design. It is shown that some geometric parameters have the opposite effect on objective functions. Therefore, an analytical multi-objective optimization procedure is proposed to satisfy both of the goals, simultaneously. The values of the geometric parameters determined in this paper are more practical in terms of manufacturing than the values suggested in the base design.
