Experiments were carried out at different column temperatures (60-120°C) and interstitial carrier gas velocities (3.1-16.3 cm/s) using a clinoptilolite-rich natural zeolitic material packed column. The equilibrium and kinetic parameters were determined by matching the moments of the experimentally obtained response curves to the parameters in the mathematical model. The Henry's Law constants were found to decrease from 700 to 49 with increasing temperature. The heat of adsorption at low coverage was found to be 50.73 kJ/molK. The contributions from external film, macropore, and micropore diffusion resistances to mass transfer were determined, and the micropore diffusion resistance was found to be the major contributor. The micropore diffusivity as a function of crystal radius (Dc/rc 2) was determined and found to change between 5.72 × 10-4 and 1.34 × 10-2 s-1 in the temperature range studied.Article Citation - WoS: 81Citation - Scopus: 102Effects of Equivalence Ratio on Species and Soot Concentrations in Premixed N-Heptane Flames(Elsevier Ltd., 2002) İnal, Fikret; Senkan, Selim M.The micro-structure of laminar premixed, atmospheric-pressure, fuel-rich flames of n-heptane/oxygen/argon has been studied at two equivalence ratios (C/O = 0.63 and C/O = 0.67). A heated quartz microprobe coupled to an online gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HP 5890 Series II/HP 5972) has been used to establish the identities and absolute concentrations of stable major, minor, and trace species by the direct analysis of samples withdrawn from the flames. Benzene was the most abundant aromatic compound identified. The largest PAH detected were the family of C18H10 (molecular weight of 226) that include cyclopenta[cd]pyrene and benzo[ghi]fluoranthene, with peak concentrations reaching 8 ppm and 6 ppm, respectively. Soot particle diameters, number densities, and volume fractions were determined using classical light scattering and extinction measurements. The largest soot particle diameter measured was about 18 nm and the soot volume fraction reached the amount of 4.9 × 10-7.Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 18Solvent Diffusion in Amorphous Polymers: Polystyrene-Solvent Systems(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2000) Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Danner, Ronald P.The inverse gas chromatography (IGC) technique was used to obtain the partition and diffusion coefficients of solvents in polystyrene over a wide range of temperatures. Infinite dilution experiments were performed with three solvents: toluene, benzene, and hexane. Finite concentration data were measured for the polystyrene-toluene system at various concentrations from 110 to 180 °C. For the finite concentration region, the modified capillary column model used by Tihminlioglu and Danner (J Chromatogr A 1999, 845, 93-101) was used to calculate diffusion and thermodynamic data. Finite concentration thermodynamic data were also calculated with the retention theory approach and compared with the capillary column model. The experimental IGC results are in good agreement with data from other experimental techniques.Article Citation - WoS: 19Citation - Scopus: 20Solvent Diffusion in Amorphous Polymers: Polyvinyl Acetate-Toluene System(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2000) Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Danner, Ronald P.; Lützow, Norbert; Duda, John LarryIn a previous publication (Tihminlioglu et al., J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 1997, 35, 1279), we presented an extensive analysis of the polyvinyl acetate-toluene system. The inverse gas chromatography (IGC) technique was used to measure phase equilibria and diffusion coefficients above and near the glass-transition temperature of a polymer. At temperatures above the glass transition, the capillary column model developed by Pawlisch et al. (Macromolecules 1987, 20, 1564) was used. For the finite concentration region, the modified model of Tihminlioglu and Danner (J Chromatogr A 1999, 845, 93) was applied. Data obtained with the IGC method were in agreement with data measured with the gravimetric and piezoelectric sorption techniques. In this work, we revisit the partition coefficient issue and provide some new data at lower temperatures. At temperatures near the glass-transition temperature, the modification of the capillary column model proposed by Vrentas et al. (Macromolecules 1993, 26, 6670) was used for the infinite dilution region. The diffusion data correlated well with the Vrentas-Duda free-volume model.
