INTEGRAL TRANSFORM METHOD FOR SOLVING INHOMOGENEOUS HEAT EQUATION WITH MIXED BOUNDARY CONDITIONS
The inhomogeneous heat equation for a semi-infi nite cylindrical solid body with mixed boundary conditions of the fi rst and second kinds on the surface of the cylinder was solved using the Laplace and Hankel integral transforms. The solution of the mixed boundary-value problem was reduced to the dual integral equations which were solved using an appropriate substitution, and their solution was fi nally reduced to the Fredholm integral equations of the second kind which were solved by the infi nite series method

RADIATION COOLING OF A NONMONODISPERSE DROPLET FLOW IN A FRAMELESS SYSTEM FOR REJECTION OF A LOW-POTENTIAL HEAT IN THE OUTER SPACE
The radiation cooling of a nonmonodisperse droplet fl ow in a droplet cooler-radiator was investigated. Diff erent reasons for the deterioration of the monodispersion of such a fl ow were considered, and the characteristic deviations of the sizes of the droplets in this fl ow from the standard ones under diff erent conditions were determined. The infl uence of the monodispersion of the indicated fl ow on the overradiation of the droplets in it and on their cooling was investigated numerically and analytically. The estimates obtained allow one to forecast the infl uence of the nonmonodispersion of a droplet fl ow in a droplet cooler-radiator on the effi ciency of its work.

ANALYSIS OF THE PROCESS OF THERMOSTABILIZATION OF A HIGH-TEMPERATURE SURFACE WITH DISPERSED FLOW
Experiments have been performed to investigate the effi ciency of the process of thermostabilization of a hightemperature surface with dispersed fl ow of a heat transfer agent at a pressure of 0.2–0.6 MPa in it and at a mass rate of fl ow of heat transfer agent of (3.3–6.15)·10–3 kg/s and a surface sprinkler density of 1.67–3.11 kg/(m2 ·s). Assessments have been made of the amount of heat transfer agent evaporating in all investigated heat transfer regimes. An equation describing various heat transfer regimes has been obtained for heat transfer from a hightemperature surface to a dispersed fl ow of a heat transfer agent in a criterial form. Criterial equations qualitatively describe experimental data within a small error, which indicates their satisfactory reproducibility in the said range of regime parameters of the process

ON FILTRATION IN SOME PROBLEMS OF UNDERGROUND HYDRODYNAMICS
Simulation of fi ltration fl ows under the Zhukovskii sheet pile through a soil mass underlain by an impermeable base or by a highly permeable pressure aquifer was carried out using two schemes within the framework of the theory of fl at steady-state fi ltration of an incompressible fl uid according to Darcy's law. The infl uence of evaporation or infi ltration on the free surface of ground water was studied based on solving mixed boundary-value problems of the theory of analytical functions using the Polubarinova-Kochina method. Algorithms have been developed for calculating the saturated zone of soil in the case of water moving in it is determined by the backing of the soil from its impermeable base or the underlying well-permeable aquifer, evaporation or infi ltration on the free surface of ground water and by soil capillarity

IMPREGNATION OF COMPOSITE MATERIALS BASED ON LONG CARBON FIBERS WITH A THERMOPLASTIC BINDER WHEN PRODUCING PREPREG
The fi ltration of liquid in carbon fi bers during their impregnation is considered. A quantitative relationship has been proposed between the mechanical compressive properties of long fl at carbon threads and their permeability coeffi cient in the direction perpendicular to the surface of the thread. A model based on a nonstationary solution of a one-dimensional fi ltration problem has been developed for calculating the process of impregnation of fi bers with a thermoplastic binder. As a result of a comparative analysis of experimental and calculated data, the dynamic viscosity of the melt and an analogue of its surface tension forces were assessed.

DYNAMICS OF SATURATION OF A STRATUM IN THE ZONE OF PENETRATION OF A DRILLING AGENT INTO IT
A solution of the nonlinear problem on the driving of the oil from an oil-bearing stratum of fi nite length by the fi ltrate of a drilling agent (fl ushing water) has been constructed with the use of the asymptotic method. On the basis of this solution, the saturation fi eld of the stratum in the zone of penetration of the fl ushing water into it was investigated with regard for the process of opening of the stratum by drilling. The indicated solution defi nes the movement, along the thickness of the stratum, of the boundary, corresponding to the position of a drill bit, above which the saturation of the stratum with the fi ltrate of the fl ushing water and the velocity of fi ltering of this water are prescribed, and, below this boundary, the velocity of the water fi ltration fl ow and the stratum saturation are assumed to be equal to zero. It is shown that, within large times, the solution obtained conforms with the known Buckley–Leverett expression. On the basis of the computational experiments, spatial and time distributions of the stratum saturation in the zone of penetration of the fl ushing water into it have been constructed with regard for the process of opening of the stratum.

INFLUENCE OF THE GENERATION OF GAS BUBBLES IN FLOODED LEAD–ACID BATTERIES ON THEIR THERMAL BEHAVIOR
The thermal behavior of fl ooded lead–acid batteries with diff erent distances between their electrodes, in which there takes place a temperature rise, was investigated at diff erent rates of charging and discharging of these batteries with the use of the PIV method. It was established that, in the case of small rates of charging and discharging of such a battery, a decrease in the distance between its electrodes leads to a decrease in the temperature rise and in the heat generation in it, while, in the case where these rates are large, the opposite eff ects take place

INFLUENCE OF VARIOUS FACTORS ON THE FLOW OF A CHEMICALLY REACTIVE NON-NEWTONIAN FLUID IN A PLANE CHANNEL
A study has been made of the fl ow of a non-Newtonian polymer medium in a plane channel and of heat transfer in it with boundary conditions of the fi rst kind for small Reynolds numbers and a large Péclet number with the Ellis rheological model with a viscosity dependent on the temperature, pressure, and degree of chemical conversion of the medium. Consideration was given to the fl ow of a high-viscosity medium with chemical reactions leading to an abrupt increase in its viscosity for whose mathematical description the authors used a model that included the kinetic chemical-reaction equation and the energy equation with a dissipative term. Signifi cant infl uence of various factors on the formation and rate of growth of the solidifi ed wall layer in such fl ow has been shown. The problem has been solved numerically by the fi nite-diff erence method according to the iterative scheme

MATHEMATICAL SIMULATION OF TURBULENT COMBUSTION OF AIR–PROPANE MIXTURE IN SWIRL FLOW
An investigation has been made into a turbulent combustion of an air–propane mixture in a swirl fl ow. To calculate an averaged velocity of a chemical reaction, use was made of a combination of an eddy dissipation model and a kinetic model with account for turbulent pulsations. The infl uence of a weak swirl on fl ame localization is low. If the length of the recirculation zone occurring in a strong fl ow vortex exceeds the length of the prefl ame zone, the fl ame front is entraped by the recirculation zone and moves upstream towards the channel inlet where fl ame stabilization occurs. At the initial segment of the fl ow, the chemical reaction is determined by Arrhenius kinetics. In the region directly adjacent to the fl ame, the combustion mechanism controlled by turbulence becomes signifi cant.

DISTINCTIVE FEATURES OF THE PYROLYSIS AND GASIFICATION OF BIOMASS IN MICROWAVE HEATING IN A CO2 MEDIUM
The infl uence of a CO2 reactive medium and of a volume in the range 200–600 mL on the yield of basic components (CO, CO2, H2, and CH4) of a producer gas in microwave heating of biomass has been investigated. The dependences of the moderate and maximum concentrations of the gases on the volume of carbon dioxide fed to the chamber of a microwave reactor have been determined. Trends of variation in the concentrations of the enumerated gases with time have been obtained. Times of the onset of release of the concentrations of the gas components and their duration with variation of the CO2 volume fed to the chamber have been established. The infl uence of the feed of reactive gases on the mass of the char has been investigated. It has been shown that the injection of CO2 into the reactor chamber exerts a positive infl uence on the intensifi cation of microwave pyrolysis of the biomass, with the result that the yield of volatiles of the formed gas mixture rises.

THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY OF LIQUID HYDROFLUOROCHLORINE OLEFINS IN THE RANGE FROM SATURATION LINE TO CRITERIAL PRESSURE
A method is proposed for predicting the thermal conductivity of liquid hydrofl uoroolefi ns (HFOs) and hydrochlorofl uoroolefi ns (HCFOs), which belong to the fourth generation of refrigerants, in the range of state parameters from the saturation line to the critical pressure (pcr) and from the triple point of temperature (Ttr) to the critical temperature (Tcr). Within the framework of the methodology, two correlation dependences are proposed approved using the example of describing the thermal conductivity of eight liquid HFO and HCFO refrigerants in the temperature range from Ttr to Tcr. One of the correlations is based on the correlations of S. Yang et al., within the framework of which we took into account the requirements of the dynamic scale theory of the critical point, with the other being developed on the basis of the criterion unit of L. P. Filippov. It is shown that both correlations with low uncertainty describe data on the thermal conductivity of liquid HFO and HCFO refrigerants both on the saturation line and in the single-phase region. It is also shown that within the limits of experimental uncertainty, the modernized correlation of S. Yang et al. describes experimental data on the thermal conductivity of propane in the vicinity of the critical point. Based on the proposed method, tabulated data on the thermal conductivity of liquid refrigerant R1234ye(E) in the temperature range from 203.15 to 375.15 K were obtained for the fi rst time.

CHARACTERISTICS OF SURFACE DEFORMATION AND FRAGMENTATION OF DROPLETS OF HIGH-VISCOSITY LIQUIDS MOVING IN A GASEOUS MEDIUM
The results of experimental and theoretical studies of the characteristics of surface deformation and fragmentation of droplets of high-viscosity liquids (glycerol and melted Al2O3) moving in a gaseous medium are presented. Typical shapes of droplets, modes, and cycles of surface deformation, cycle durations and the amplitude have been established. Minimum relative velocities of the movement of droplets have been determined leading to fragmentation of droplets of high-viscosity liquids (glycerol and melted Al2O3). The infl uence of a group of factors on the characteristics of deformation of droplets has been established: fl ow velocity (0–100 m/s) and initial sizes of droplets (1–5 mm). Satisfactory agreement between experimental data and the results of theoretical calculations for high-viscosity liquids (using the example of glycerol droplets) was obtained.

EXPERIMENTAL ASSESSMENT OF FLOW STRUCTURE IN A CYLINDER DURING AIR FLOW THROUGH POPPET VALVES OF DIFFERENT CONFIGURATIONS
Data are presented on the gas-dynamical structure of fl ow in the cylinder when it is fi lled through poppet valves with heads in the form of a circle and a square. The studies were carried out on a laboratory setup simulating a piston internal combustion engine. The air fl ow through the gas-dynamical system of the engine was carried out in a stationary mode with an initial speed of 8 to 41 m/s. Thermograms of the fl ow structure were obtained for two control sections of this system using the thermal imaging method. It has been established that the confi guration of the cylinder valve head exerts a signifi cant impact on the structure in it and that in a cylinder with a round valve there are pronounced stagnant zones. It has been shown that the use of valves with a square head ensures more uniform fi lling of the cylinder with air throughout its entire volume compared to a traditional round valve. The data obtained can be useful for refi ning mathematical models of the process of cylinder fi lling and for developing new methods of modernizing valve assemblies of piston machines

HYDRODYNAMICS OF A COOLANT IN THE OUTLET SECTION OF A CASSETTE TYPE FUEL ASSEMBLY
The results of experimental studies of the hydrodynamics of a coolant in the outlet section of a cassette fuel assembly of the RITM reactor of a low-power nuclear power plant are presented. The purpose of the work was to study the redistribution of axial velocity and coolant fl ow rate at the outlet of the fuel rod bundle, behind the fuel assembly cap, near the coolant extraction pipe, and in the holes of the upper support plate. To achieve the goal, experiments were carried out on a research stand with an air working medium on a model of the outlet section of the fuel assembly, including the outlet fragment of the fuel rod bundle, the cap, the upper support plate with the coolant extraction pipe. When conducting research, the pneumometric method and the method of injection of a contrast impurity were used. An area covering the entire cross section of the model was chosen as the study area. The picture of the coolant fl ow is represented by cartograms of the distribution of axial velocity and coolant fl ow rate, as well as cartograms of the distribution of the contrast impurity. The experimental results can be used in the design of new active sections of RITM reactors. The resulting experimental base can be used for local validation of CFD programs and onedimensional thermal-hydraulic codes used to substantiate the thermal reliability of cores.

INVESTIGATION OF THE PLASTIC DEFORMATION OF A ROTATING DISK FROM AN ALLOY REINFORCED WITH INCOHERENT NANOPARTICLES
An investigation has been conducted into the plastic deformation of a rotating disk from aluminum-based dispersionhardened alloy. The eff ects of the size of strengthening particles on a material′s strength properties have been identifi ed. Simulation results show that the strengthening of a material with nanoparticles change substantially strength characteristics. In alloys with shorter distances between the strengthening particles, a high disk rotation frequency is required for achieving plastic deformation at one and the same volume fraction of particles. With increase in temperature the material plasticizes more, i.e., it becomes more yielding, which is accompanied by a reduction in the material fl ow stress. As a result, a decrease occurs in the rotation frequency at which plastic deformation begins. With increase in the inner and external radii of the disk, at its one and the same width, the disk′s resistance to plastic deformation decreases, and the beginning of plastic deformation occurs at a lower rotation frequency.

INFLUENCE OF THE IRRADIATION, BY A PULSED ELECTRON BEAM, OF THE SURFACE OF SILUMIN AK5M2 AS PART OF A METAL/CARBON-FIBER-REINFORCED-PLASTIC COMPOSITE ON MECHANICAL PROPERTIES
The authors have presented results of uniaxial-tension testing of specimens of the layered composite "silumin/carbonfi ber-reinforced-plastic" (AK5M2/CFRP). AK5M2-grade silumin of hypoeutectic composition with the irradiation of the specimen′s surface by a pulsed laser beam was taken as the basic material. To create layered composites, carbon unidirectional fabric "CARBONWRAP Tape 230" produced at the Joint Stock Company Nanotechnological Center of Composites (NCC) was glued to the silumin surface. The binary epoxy compound "CARBONWRAP Resin 530+" produced at NCC was used as the binder. The uniaxial tension test of the specimens was implemented on an INSTRON 3382 testing machine at an extension rate of 0.3 mm/min. The evolution of deformation fi elds on the specimen′s surface was obtained using a VIC-3D digital optical system based on the method of correlation of digital stereoscopic images. From the testing results, the diagrams of deformation under uniaxial tension of the AK5M2/CFRP were constructed. The electron-microscopic image of the silumin surface layer was obtained by the scanning-electron-microscopy methods. An analysis of the structure of its infl uence on the physicomechanical properties was performed. An analysis of the strained state of the specimens was made by the patterns of distributions of longitudinal and transverse deformations in space and time
