Therefore, in the case of [epsilon] = 0.2, the system of rumor propagation is a
discontinuous phase transition.
In this equation, the parameters [K.sub.c], [K.sub.a], and [K.sub.e] represent the thermal conductivity of the nanofluids containing AgNWs, the
discontinuous phase AgNWs, and the continuous phase ethylene glycol, respectively.
Dropping or adding samples resulted in very significant
discontinuous phase shifts.
A common feature of multiphase flows is that a dispersed or
discontinuous phase is being carried by a continuous phase, for example water drops in gas flow, solid particles in water flow, or gas bubbles in liquid flow.
The process involved is referred to as phase inversion, which means that the excessive raw material quantity (elastomer) is broken down, vulcanized and converted from the continuous phase into the
discontinuous phase. This is indispensable in order to ensure a subsequent thermoplastic processing of the TPE-V obtained.
Selman admits, "There are subtle issues here." For example, the
discontinuous phase transition found for the 3-SAT case is itself quite complicated.
But hard problems involve abrupt or
discontinuous phase change, which makes the calculation time increase exponentially.
The PVC together with ethylene terpolymer forms the continuous phase and the nylon is the
discontinuous phase in these particular blends.
These models assume no adhesion between the two phases of blends/composites (28), (30), and the tensile property is governed by either the area fraction (i.e., [[PHI].sub.d.sup.2/3]) or the volume fraction (i.e., [[PHI.sub.d]]) of the
discontinuous phase (30), (31).
This
discontinuous phase was noted in all five adhesives and ranged in size from 5 to 20 [micro]m.
