Theories of Dissolution: The Danckwerts' Model and Interfacial Barrier Model

869
Various dissolution theories provide insight into the factors that influence the dissolution rate. Danckwerts' Model suggests that turbulence, rather than a stagnant layer, characterizes the dissolution medium at the solid-liquid interface. In this model, the agitated solvent contains macroscopic packets that move to the interface via eddy currents, facilitating the absorption and delivery of the drug to the bulk solution. The regular replenishment of solvent packets maintains the...

Van der Waals Interactions

72.4K
Atoms and molecules interact with each other through intermolecular forces. These electrostatic forces arise from attractive or repulsive interactions between particles with permanent, partial, or temporary charges. The intermolecular forces between neutral atoms and molecules are ion–dipole, dipole–dipole, and dispersion forces, collectively known as van der Waals forces.

Area of Science:

  • Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD)
  • Occupational Health and Safety
  • Mining Engineering

Background:

  • Diesel particulate matter (DPM) poses significant health risks in underground mining environments.
  • Understanding DPM distribution is critical for effective ventilation and exposure control strategies.
  • Previous studies often lack detailed three-dimensional simulations of DPM dynamics during loading operations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct three-dimensional simulations of DPM distribution during Load-Haul-Dump (LHD) loader-truck loading operations.
  • To analyze the impact of truck motion and ventilation on DPM concentration within a single straight entry.
  • To evaluate potential exceedances of U.S. regulatory limits for DPM exposure in mining areas.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized ANSYS FLUENT software for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations.
  • Employed a dynamic mesh technique to model the influence of truck movement on DPM dispersion.
  • Simulated DPM distribution for 3-minute loading periods with trucks positioned upstream and downstream of the loading face.

Main Results:

  • Observed phenomena include the piston effect, DPM layering in the roof region, and backflow of diesel exhaust against ventilation.
  • Detailed DPM distribution patterns were generated for various operational scenarios.
  • Simulation results provide data to assess compliance with U.S. DPM concentration limits (>160 µg/m³).

Conclusions:

  • The study provides critical insights into DPM behavior during LHD-truck operations in confined underground spaces.
  • Findings can inform the selection of targeted DPM reduction strategies.
  • This research supports improvements in working practices to enhance miner safety and reduce DPM exposure.
