Void Fraction Morphology

Void fraction morphology describes the amount and spatial arrangement of one phase, typically gas, within a multiphase flow. It combines void fraction, the gas-volume fraction of a control volume, with morphological features such as bubble size, shape, distribution, and connectivity, which evolve as superficial velocity, pressure, channel geometry, and interfacial forces change. Characterizing these structures helps identify flow regimes and explain their effects on pressure drop, heat and mass transfer, and phase mixing. In engineering, void fraction morphology supports the design and modeling of pipelines, boiling systems, reactors, and porous or microfluidic devices, improving predictions of transport behavior and system performance.

Total Voids in Concrete

2024

Total voids in concrete encompass gel water volume, capillary pores, and entrapped air. Gel water (retained within the cement hydration products) and physically entrapped or adsorbed water are significant for the hydration process. For complete hydration, it's estimated that the space needed for the products of a cubic centimeter of cement doubles. Capillary pores constitute the unoccupied space within the hydrated cement paste, with their size largely influenced by the water-to-cement ratio...

Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG) and Cystography are specialized radiographic procedures used to examine the structure and function of the bladder and urethra.Voiding Cystourethrography (VCUG)A Voiding Cystourethrogram (VCUG) is a diagnostic imaging procedure that assesses the anatomy and function of the lower urinary tract. It focuses on the bladder, bladder neck, and urethra, helping detect abnormalities such as vesicoureteral reflux (VUR)—the backward or reverse flow of urine into the...

Source: Laboratory of Dr. Nicholas Leadbeater — University of Connecticut Distillation is perhaps the most common laboratory technique employed by chemists for the purification of organic liquids. Compounds in a mixture with different boiling points separate into individual components when the mixture is carefully distilled. The two main types of distillation are "simple distillation" and "fractional distillation", and both are widely used in organic chemistry laboratories. Simple distillation...
