To compute the mean electrostatic potential profile from the charge profile, one must solve Poisson’s equation with appropriate boundary conditions (BC). In this work, we show that it is advantageous to use the Neumann or Dirichlet BCs at the boundaries of the simulation domain with an integrated version of Poisson’s equation. This minimises errors from the simulation’s noisy density profiles, in contrast to traditional convolution integrals that amplify the noise. The Neumann BC, where the electric field is prescribed, can be used in both the constant surface charge and constant electrode voltage ensembles. In the constant voltage ensemble, where the potential difference between the confining electrodes is prescribed, one can also use the Dirichlet BC, where the potentials at the boundaries are set. We show that the new methods provide converged results for the potential profile faster than the convolution integral does.","PeriodicalId":13010,"journal":{"name":"Hungarian Journal of Industrial Chemistry","volume":"13 1","pages":"123-130"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80031096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the field of chemical operations in microwave field with ionic liquids (organic chemical synthesis, catalytic operations, etc.) new horizons opened that were supported by the dramatically increasing number of studies dealing with this question and their impact. Due to the high durability of ionic liquids as a function of temperature, a wider temperature range of operations can be accessed. In addition, it offers environmental friendly solution in the replacement of the toxic solvents with generally low volatility. The area of application extends to electrolytes of novel battery cells. The important prerequisite for application of ionic liquids is the knowledge of their physical and chemical properties. Our aim was to test the dielectric properties, viscosity, and temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity. Considering our measurements, it can be declared that the aforementioned properties show significant temperature dependence in the case of ionic liquids. This knowledge is important for the usability, design and execution of production and related optimization processes. It is particularly important that energy storage cells can be exposed to large temperature fluctuations. This study discusses the sample materials, the usage possibilities of the sample materials and the obtained results.","PeriodicalId":13010,"journal":{"name":"Hungarian Journal of Industrial Chemistry","volume":"58 1","pages":"11-15"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88164444","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Unexpected stochastic breakdown of a workstation or the faulty termination of a recipe, when a manufacturing failure renders the workpiece out of specifications, forms the set of immediate events. A model and an algorithm are proposed as the basis of a scheduler, which takes into account the possible immediate events, estimates their probability and suggests resource allocations which provide the best overall work-flow even when an immediate event happens. This model includes the possibility of handling alternative resources that can substitute each other in case of an immediate event, like sudden technical failure of a resource. Immediate events are not exactly predictable; however, based on previous experiences, their probabilities can be estimated. Our model uses the properties of the resources (including how they can substitute other types of resources) and the required sequence of them during the workflow (i.e. the recipes). The proposed scheduling algorithm constructs a solution workflow that reacts in the best way (in average) even for an unexpected event. The proposed model and scheduling algorithm is illustrated on two industrial case studies.","PeriodicalId":13010,"journal":{"name":"Hungarian Journal of Industrial Chemistry","volume":"9 1","pages":"27-34"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85459568","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is well known that dynamical systems with smooth nonlinearities can be embedded in a quasi-polynomial model. Quasipolynomial systems are good candidates for a general nonlinear system representation since their global stability analysis is equivalent to the feasibility of a LMI. Moreover, the stabilizing quasi-polynomial state feedback controller design problem is equivalent to the feasibility of a bilinear matrix inequality. The classical stabilizing state feedback problem for quasipolynomial systems has been extended in this work with the ability of tracking time-dependent reference signals. It is shown, that the stabilizing quasi-polynomial servo controller design is equivalent to a bilinear matrix inequality.

Heat dissipation in general applications happens by the extended cathode, which is in contact with the inner side of the can. In the case of heat sink applications, the most important heat transfer phenomenon is the heat conduction through the bottom of the aluminium can. The quantity of the dissipated heat is in direct proportion to the size of the heat transfer surface. The more dissipated heat may increase the lifetime of the capacitor. Therefore, the flatness value of the can bottom is critical. This paper presents a flatness measurement method, which can successfully replace the equipment for a more complex and more expensive 3D measurement. It discusses an implementation of a measurement environment, where data acquisition and visualization are automated by a LabVIEW-based software. In addition, this study deals briefly with the influence of production processes on the flatness value of the capacitor produced by leading manufacturers.","PeriodicalId":13010,"journal":{"name":"Hungarian Journal of Industrial Chemistry","volume":"32 1","pages":"41-46"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88112082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
