Improved model of isothermal and incompressible fluid flow in pipelines versus the Darcy–Weisbach equation and the issue of friction factor
PublicationIn this article, we consider the modelling of stationary incompressible and isothermal one-dimensional fluid flow through a long pipeline. The approximation of the average pressure in the developed model by the arithmetic mean of inlet and outlet pressures leads to the known empirical Darcy–Weisbach equation. Most importantly, we also present another improved approach that is more accurate because the average pressure is estimated...

THERMODYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF A GENERATION IV SCWR NUCLEAR POWER PLANT CYCLE
PublicationThis article presents a flow and thermodynamic analysis of a Generation IV nuclear cycle. An SCWR (Supercritical water reactor) is a high temperature and high pressure reactor that uses water at a temperature above its thermodynamic critical point as the working fluid. The cycle used for the calculations consists of one interstage superheater and 7 regenerative heat exchangers. Division pressure was optimized in view of the cycle efficiency,...

Energy Security of Polish Consumers in 2004-2021
Open Research DataEnergy security is one of the most important components of economic security. It is influenced not only by access to energy sources and the economic situation of the state and the individual consumer. In the years 2004–2021, energy security of the individual consumer in the economic dimension significantly improved. This was due to several factors:1....

The luminescence study of Ga1.98–xAlxO3:0.02Cr3+ coumpounds.
Open Research DataA chemical and mechanical pressure-induced photoluminescence tuning method was developed through structural evolution and hydrostatic pressure involving phase transition. A series of Ga1.98−xAlxO3:0.02Cr3+ phosphors were synthesized by collaborators from National Taiwan University. Structural evolution reveals a crystal phase change with the incorporation...

Number of foreigners registered for pension and disability insurance by citizenship - at the end of the year
Open Research DataThe data from the Central Register of Insureds indicate that the number of individuals who were subject to retirement and disability insurance and who had citizenship other than Polish increased from 65,000 in December 2008 to nearly 570 thousand in December 2018 (table 4 and figure 4). This means a nearly 9-time increase, while the number of foreigners...

Identification of synergistic and antagonistic actions of environmental pollutants: Bisphenols A, S and F in the presence of DEP, DBP, BADGE and BADGE·2HCl in three component mixtures
PublicationEcosystems are facing increased pressure due to the emission of many classes of emerging contaminants. However, very little is known about the interactions of these pollutants, such as bisphenols (BPs), plasticizers or pharmaceuticals. By employing bioluminescent bacteria (Microtox assay), we were able to define interactions between selected emerging pollutants (namely BPA, BPS, BPF, BADGE, BADGE·2HCl, DEP, DBP) in ternary mixtures, at...

Surface engineering of graphene oxide membranes for selective separation of perfluorooctanoic acids
PublicationPerfluoroalkyl compounds (PFCs) are environmental toxicants and their widespread detection and accumulation in the environment can be detrimental to the ecosystem. In this study, surface charge of GO membranes was engineered to enhance selectivity of graphene oxide (GO) membranes and for the removal of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA ∼400 Da) in real concentration ranges in wastewater streams. The structure and physicochemical properties...
