This thesis presents the different steps in the development of a multiple diagnostic experimental setup and the results concerning the kinetics of condensation and evaporation of water over pure ice, as well as ice films doped with a known amount of atmosp ...
This study is a contribution for the improvement of horizontal falling film heat exchangers. This type of evaporator has the potential to be widely used in the petrochemical industry, for the sea water desalination, or in the large refrigeration systems. A ...
In the pulp and paper industry, multi-effect evaporators are used to evaporate water from black liquor solutions to allow its recycle as chemicals and fuel for the process. The thermodynamic principle of the multi-effect evaporator consists in a serie of r ...
The time evolution of evaporation from a bare soil, over a 9-d period following irrigation, is described by a combination of daily and hourly drying patterns. From the second day, the daily evaporation shows a second stage of drying that can be described a ...
The kinetics of surface processes during the growth of GaN by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) with ammonia as the source of reactive nitrogen is studied theoretically and experimentally. A model of surface processes is developed taking into account specific e ...
Evaporative drying of porous media is jointly controlled by external ( atmospheric) conditions and by media internal transport properties. Effects of different atmospheric potential evaporative demand on observed drying rates were studied in a series of la ...
The thermal decomposition of three synthetic copper sulfides (chalcocite (Cu2S), chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), and enargite (Cu3AsS4)) and two commercial copper concentrates has been studied on a thermobalance (T = 1173-1773 K) and an imaging furnace (T approxima ...
Ag cubes of uniform size (70nm) and self-assembled into two dimensional arrays are formed by physical vapor deposition. The formation of the Ag cubes depends critically on the substrate composition. While heat dissipation can control the crystallization of ...

Evaporation from porous media involves mass and energy transport including phase change, vapor diffusion, and liquid flow, resulting in complex displacement patterns affecting drying rates. Force balance considering media properties yields characteristic l ...
"Thermal desorption experiments" were carried out during which heavy metal evaporation was studied by on-line monitoring. This could be achieved by the use of a tubular furnace connected to a heavy metal detector, i.e. an ICP-OES (inductively coupled plasm ...
