Authors:   University of Ghana, Ainuson-Quampah J , Amuna NN , Holdsworth M ,   Montpellier Interdisciplinary Centre on Sustainable Agri-food Systems, Aryeetey R
Published: April 2022

Food-based dietary guidelines (FBDGs) are important tools for promoting healthy eating and nutrition education at the population level. Currently, more than 100 countries worldwide have developed FBDGs with majority of existing FBDGs in high-income countries. However, there are a few countries in Africa which have developed FBDGs. This review describes and compares the characteristics of existing FBDGs in Africa. Data were extracted from all existing FBDGs from African countries which have been archived in the Food and Agriculture Organization’s (FAO) online repository of FBDGs. In addition, supporting documentation from other sources linked to the identified FBDGs were also reviewed. Extracted data were coded and synthesized to describe the purpose of the FBDGs, the process for developing the FBDGs, and how healthy diets were expressed in the FBDGs. In addition, the FBDGs were examined for content on considerations for planetary health, and non-dietary recommendations. A checklist was used to extract the evidence in the identified documents. Of the 47 African countries in the WHO Africa region, only eight FBDGs were identified from seven countries. South Africa had two FBDGs (including a FBDG for young children). Multi-disciplinary technical working groups were convened in developing majority of the FBDGs. The working groups utilised scientific evidence on diet-related diseases and nutrient requirements as a basis for recommendations. All the FBDGs were intended as a tool for promoting healthy diets among the lay population. The FBDGs that were reviewed included between six and sixteen dietary messages. Diet diversification was promoted as the most common recommendation across African country FBDGs. The recommendations often promoted consumption of four to six food groups communicated using text as well as images (food guide). Local availability and cultural acceptability were important values promoted as part of an optimal diet in some of the countries. However, none of the recommendations addressed environmental sustainability. Apart from South Africa, none of the FBDGs had been evaluated or revised. Across Africa, there is a need for increased focus on developing new FBDGs or revising existing ones as a tool for meeting the dietary information needs of populations at risk of malnutrition in all its forms.

Katarzyna Kozyra. An Artist in the Art Field. A Case Study
Authors: Kidoń Dagna
Published: April 2022

The purpose of the paper is to present the artistic accomplishments of Katarzyna Kozyra as a representative of critical art in the context of her position in the art field. The analysis was expanded to her relationship with the audience, based on a chain of artistic communication exemplified by the Nude Study sculpture of 1991.
In March 2021, a study on the reception of modern artworks was carried out in the Zachęta Gallery in Warsaw. The respondents were asked to view and to interpret, among others, the Nude Study by Katarzyna Kozyra of 1991. To confront the general understanding of the work and to verify the efficiency of artistic communication, a free-form interview with the artist was also carried out, where she presented her own interpretation of the study. The artist’s responses and opinions of the audience became the research material quoted here. The analysis disclosed consistency of the message and even though the answers did not overlap closely with the artist’s intention, they were fully accepted by her. The interview also offered an impetus for reflecting on the position of the artist in the art field and her relationship with the agents in the field. It turns out that the artist is clearly dominated by the political field which affects her functioning in the art field.
The results above may offer an inspiration for further research on the creative activities of other artists, who may struggle with completely different problems and create different layouts in the art field.1
L’indépendance politique et créatrice les artistes Polonaises à Paris s’affirment
Authors: Bobrowska Ewa
Published: April 2022

Le recouvrement de l’indépendance de la Pologne en 1918 a fondamentalement changé la situation de la colonie artistique polonaise à Paris, y compris celle des femmes artistes. Un certain nombre de motifs d’émigration artistique ont perdu leur raison d’être, comme l’affirmation de l’identité nationale polonaise, la nécessité d’une libre expression des sentiments patriotiques ou la propagande pour la restauration d’un État indépendant. Le problème de l’enseignement artistique supérieur pour les femmes, qui était pressant pendant la période des Partitions, a également trouvé progressivement une solution dans l’État renaissant. Le nombre de femmes artistes polonaises à Paris a visiblement diminué dans l’immédiat après-guerre. Celles qui y sont restées, comme Olga Boznańska, Mela Muter, Alicja Halicka ou Stefania Łazarska, se sont concentrées sur le développement de leur carrière d’artistes professionnelles. Notre article propose une analyse de la professionnalisation des femmes artistes polonaises, soit dans le domaine de la peinture de portraits traditionnellement reconnue comme spécialité féminine, soit dans les arts décoratifs. La situation dramatique des artistes pendant la guerre, causée, entre autres, par l’effondrement du marché de l’art, a entraîné un développement rapide de ce domaine, dans lequel les femmes ont atteint la maîtrise, comme en témoigne l’Exposition des arts décoratifs de Paris de 1925.

Celem prezentowanego badania była ocena społecznego wpływu pandemii COVID-19 na pacjentów z przewlekłą chorobą nerek, populację szczególnie narażoną na liczne powikłania w przypadku zarażenia się wirusem SARS-CoV-2. Autorzy skupili się na analizie problemów społecznych, które pojawiły się i nasiliły w pierwszej fazie pandemii. W badaniu wzięło udział 117 pacjentów leczonych w CKD, skierowanych do otrzymania pomocy socjalnej. Zaobserwowano wzrost liczby osób kierowanych do otrzymania pomocy. Nowych zgłoszeń było 37,6%, a 62,4% z nich związane było z pogorszeniem społeczno-ekonomicznej sytuacji pacjenta – głównie deprywacją ekonomiczną lub brakiem dochodów, bezrobociem i izolacją społeczną. Złożoność interwencji socjalnej była wyższa wśród osób z nasilonymi problemami społecznymi. Wyniki otrzymanych badań mają nie tylko walor naukowy, lecz także praktyczny – pozwalają pracownikom socjalnym na planowanie pomocy skoncentrowanej na najistotniejszych problemach pojawiających się w kontekście wyzwań pandemicznych.

Authors: Birkenmaier Julie , Fu Qiang (John)
Published: April 2022

This study examined the U.S. household financial access trends during 2012–2018 after the Great Recession of 2007–2009. Data was from a nationally representative sample (n = 2,094) of adults from the American Life Panel who completed questions from the National Financial Capability Study (NFCS) in 2012 and 2018. Latent transition analysis (LTA) was used to examine trends across seven financial access indicators, including banked status and alternative financial services (AFS) use. Results suggest the presence of three latent statuses Low Access, Partial Access, and High Access. Only 24.5% of people in the Low Access status and 2.6% of people in the Partial Access status in 2012 transitioned into the better financial access status in 2018. Policy and practice implications to improve people’s financial access are discussed.

Published: April 2022

This article summarizes a field-based experiment exploring an individual and small-group financial coaching intervention. Both types of coaching programs had the same goal: To develop clients’ financial capability through a series of planned meetings focusing on client driven goals. Results indicated clients who were coached either individually or in groups demonstrated increases in financial knowledge, gains in confidence, reductions in stress, and positive changes in behavior. The findings provide support for coaching as an intervention for developing financial capability and suggests group coaching as an alternative for reaching more clients and spreading financial capability more widely in a cost-effective way.

Authors: Silva Juliano Gomes da , Arantes Francisco Frederico Pelinson
Published: April 2022

The Integrated High School has achieved realizations, such as Decree 5154/04 that established it, Law 11892/08 created the Federal Institutes, and Resolution 6 of the National Council of Education with the guidelines for this modality. However, the current reform of High School, Law 13415/17, can deconstruct this modality separating Vocational Education from Basic Education, reducing preparatory work load and eliminating Humanities subjects. Therefore, this work aims to defend the quality of current Integrated High School as basic and professional education, inseparable and omnilateral, raising its possible differences in terms of career, study and citizenship, with Integrated High School graduates who work in the oil industry in the North region of Rio de Janeiro state. It was found that, out of 209 people who accessed the questionnaire, 129 answered it and considered this modality a differential for the world of work (79.1%); general and scientific basis (71.3%); pursuit of higher education in the area (59.7%) and citizen awareness (45.7%). These results reinforce the importance and quality of Integrated High School because it enables an omnilateral education, which reflects positively on the lives of the Integrated High School graduates.

Published: April 2022

Differential Evolution is an optimization method, from the class of Evolutionary Algorithms, inspired by the principles of biological evolution and it uses the operators of mutation, crossover, and selection of individuals from the same population to carry out the search for the optimal solution. Some thermodynamic models such as the Antoine equation relate saturated vapor pressure to temperature through an analytical mathematical relationship. In this article, the Differential Evolution algorithm was used to determine the coefficients of the Antoine equation for Methane and Isopropyl Alcohol in order to be compared with the parameters found in the literature. For this purpose, experimental data available from the Dortmund Data Bank were used. It was observed that the pressure predictions calculated using the parameters obtained by the Differential Evolution presented a greater agreement with the experimental data when compared with the predictions obtained through the parameters consulted in the literature.
"As mulheres do meu pai", um road movie de José Eduardo Agualusa
Authors: Silva Renata Flavia da , Santos Lucas Silva Marciano dos
Published: April 2022

“As mulheres do meu pai”, the sixth novel by the Angolan writer José Eduardo Agualusa, published in 2007, narrates two journeys that happen simultaneously and which are intertwined: the leading character’s trip, Laurentina, that treads the paths taken by Faustino Manso, her recently unveiled biological father; and the narrator’s trip, a writer who is invited to create a script to a film, that dreams and outlines Laurentina’s trip; a fictional remaking by Agualusa’s own trip to Southern Africa. More than an example of travel literature, this work aims to bring the literary work closer to the cinematographic genre of road movie, highlighting one more strategy of the author, already well known for textual strategies such as characters survival, metafiction and Angolan history’s factual elements adjustments. To do so, we base this work, mainly, in Umberto Eco’s studies about “woods of fiction”; Shuichi Kato’s research about notion of time and space; and Linda Hutcheon’s about metafiction and adaptability; furthermore, there are interviews and journalistic articles that help our understanding of its symbolic narrative construction.
A loucura feminina nos romances de Paulina Chiziane como estratégia de resistência
Authors: Silva Erica Luciana de Souza
Published: April 2022

The following work brings a brief study on how writer Paulina Chiziane turns madness into an observable resistance strategy in almost all of her characters. Here the analysis will be about Maria das Dores, from the novel “The happy song of the partridge” (2010), the crazy woman from the river who dared to invade the exclusive bank of men on the Licungo river and affronted everyone with her nudity. However, the analysis will be transversal between the characters of other novels by Chiziane, such as Rami, by “Niketche: a story of polygamy” (2004); Cláudia, from “The seventh oath” (2005) and Wusheni, from “Apocalypse winds” (1999). The phenomenon of madness will be reflected in the light of Michel Foucault's text, “The history of madness in the classical age” (1978) and the text “The Foucault and Derrida debate: reasons or unreasons of thought” (2017).

In the heart of the metropolis, between 1944 and 1965, the House of the Students of the Empire was responsible for the formation of a part of the African intellectuality that fought against Portuguese colonialism in Africa. Personalities such as Amílcar Cabral, Agostinho Neto among others would become fundamental characters in this fight against oppression. The aim of this article is to analyze some poems produced by members of the House which are compiled in the Antologias de Poesia da Casa dos Estudantes do Império, highlighting Angolan writers. Moreover, for a better understanding it is necessary a historical contextualization of the House and its role in the formation of an anticolonial and identity consciousness for these members, which would echo in the future in their countries of origin.

Diferencias en la calidad de las exportaciones manufactureras de México y Corea por niveles tecnológicos
Authors: Fujii-Gambero Gerardo , Betancourt-Gómez Michel
Published: April 2022

El propósito de este trabajo es evaluar comparativamente la calidad de las exportaciones de México y Corea del Sur. Los indicadores que se emplean son los siguientes: valor agregado (VA) interno incorporado en las exportaciones; descomposición de éste entre VA interno directo —generado en las actividades directamente exportadoras— e indirecto —creado en las que producen insumos incorporados en las exportaciones—; uso por parte del resto del mundo del VA interno incorporado en las exportaciones, dividido entre el destinado para producir exportaciones y el que es para otros usos diferentes a éstas; empleo interno contenido en las exportaciones, para las actividades tanto directa como indirectamente exportadoras; productividad del trabajo en el sector exportador en las actividades exportadoras directas e indirectas, y remuneraciones por trabajador en el sector exportador, también clasificadas entre las que exportan directamente y las que abastecen de insumos a las actividades exportadoras. Todos los indicadores se trabajan por niveles tecnológicos de las exportaciones, según la clasificación de la Organización para la Cooperación y el Desarrollo Económicos (OCDE, 2011). El análisis de datos permite concluir que, no obstante el elevado peso de las exportaciones de manufacturas, en particular las de tecnología alta y media alta, en el total de exportaciones de Corea la calidad de las mencionadas es muy superior a la de las de México: el VA interno contenido en sus exportaciones (en porcentaje de éstas) es notablemente más elevado; están más fuertemente integradas en las redes globales de valor de partes y componentes; los eslabonamientos internos, medidos por los empleos indirectos que generan, son más intensos, y la productividad del trabajo y, consecuentemente, las remuneraciones por ocupado en la actividad exportadora triplican a las de México.
Estimando la tasa de plusvalía en la industria: un estudio de Corea del Sur mediante el método de transformación inversa
Authors: Rieu Dong-Min , Park Hyun Woong
Published: April 2022

Con base en la “nueva interpretación” de la teoría marxista del valor, este artículo utiliza el método de transformación inversa a fin de estimar la tasa de plusvalía a nivel industria. Sin asumir una tasa de plusvalía nivelada como posición de largo plazo, se puede analizar la dinámica del desarrollo desigual entre las industrias. A modo de verificación empírica, se examina la economía de Corea del Sur desde la óptica de la teoría marxista del valor.
¿Planificación en el capitalismo avanzado? (lo que se puede y lo que no se puede)
Authors: Baran Paul
Published: April 2022

El ensayo examina las posibilidades de la política económica y de la planificación a fin de lograr el pleno empleo de la fuerza de trabajo. Aborda las herramientas que pueden utilizarse para este objetivo (la política fiscal en especial), y su potencial y debilidades en relación con las metas de pleno empleo, para evitar procesos inflacionarios. Señala que una planificación precisa resulta prácticamente imposible, tanto por el poco conocimiento que se posee de la conducta de variables decisivas —por ejemplo, la inversión—, como, de modo esencial, por las consecuencias perjudiciales para la clase dominante que tendría el pleno empleo en el poder de regateo de la clase trabajadora. La única modalidad que podría permitir el acceso al pleno empleo sin presiones inflacionarias radicaría en la implementación de un régimen del tipo nazi.
Corea del Sur, 1980-2018. Tendencias de algunos coeficientes económicos básicos
Authors: Jeong Guhyeon , Jeong Seongjin
Published: April 2022

Este artículo explora la dinámica y las contradicciones de la acumulación de capital en Corea del Sur de 1980 a 2018 mediante el análisis de las tasas de plusvalía y ganancia, y critica las tesis de la financiarización y del crecimiento basado en los ingresos. La tasa de plusvalía se disparó después del 2000 porque el ataque neoliberal en contra de los trabajadores contuvo el crecimiento del salario real. La tasa de ganancia disminuyó constantemente después de 1987, lo que preparó el camino para la crisis de 1997, y su causa principal fue la creciente composición orgánica del capital. Después de esta crisis, la tasa de ganancia se recuperó durante seis años, con cargo a la intensificación de la explotación de los trabajadores. Desde 2002 hasta la crisis financiera mundial de 2008, la tasa de ganancia volvió a caer. En contraposición con la tesis de la financiarización, no ha habido una transferencia sustancial de plusvalía del sector real al financiero. Los resultados también muestran que la tasa de acumulación determinó la distribución del ingreso y no al revés, lo que contradice la estrategia de crecimiento basado en el ingreso, ahora popular entre los progresistas coreanos. La macrodinámica marxista está operando como de costumbre en Corea.
Zoliflodacin: A Hope to Treat Antibiotic-Resistant Neisseria gonorrhea
Authors: Mohammadi Mohammad Reza
Published: April 2022

Background: Neisseria gonorrhea is a gram negative diplococci leads to sexually transmitted infection. N.gonorrhoeae is an obligate human pathogen that causes infection to the mucus-secreting epithelial cells both in male and female. In 2017 the centre of disease control and World Health Organization published the list of global priority pathogens-12 with denting therapeutic options, including antibiotic-resistant N. gonorrhoeae. Aim: During the covid-19 pandemic, excessive use of antibiotics is occurring which has lead to its resistance. The infection is widespread and intractable. If this happens, more people will be left with an incurable infection which may cause serious health problems. The possibility of untreatable gonorrhea is emerging larger, and hence, it is the need of an hour to develop new drug for treating it Methods and material: We characterized thoroughly zoliflodacin antibiotic, its clinical trials and effect on human health by using different keywords like “zoliflodacin”, “covid-19”, “clinical trials” from different data sources like Pub-Med, Google-Scholar, and Science-Direct. Result: Zoliflodacin targets antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea. Zoliflodacin shows therapeutic approach against N. gonorrhea. It acts by inhibiting bacterial type 2 topoisomerase with binding site in bacterial gyrase. It shows promising results against N. gonorrhea. Zoliflodacin is effective in treating gonococcal urogenital and rectal infection. Discussion: Antibiotic is the only option to treat N. gonorrhea. There is no vaccine available to treat gonorrhea. The new drug, zoliflodacin, specifically targets antibiotic-resistant gonorrhea. This is giving a hope to researchers. In this study, we elaborate the discovery of zoliflodacin, its mechanism of action, the current clinical trials, and the effectiveness of zoliflodacin.

Understanding extremophiles and their usefulness in biotechnology involves studying their habitat, physiology and biochemical adaptations , as well as their ability to produce biocatalysts, in environments that are still poorly explored. In northwestern Peru, which saline lagoons of marine origin Pacific Ocean, the other site from the coast of Brazil of the Atlantic Ocean. Both environments are considered extreme. The objective of the present work was to compare two different strains isolated from these extreme environments at the metabolic level using molecular network methodology through the Global Natural Products Molecular Social Network (GNPS). In our study, the MS/MS spectra from the network were compared with GNPS spectral libraries, where the metabolites were annotated. Differences were observed in the molecular network presented in the two strains of Streptomyces spp. coming from these two different environments. Within the annotated compounds from marine bacteria, the metabolites characterized for Streptomyces sp. B-81 from Peruvian marshes were lobophorins A (1) and H (2), as well as divergolides A (3), B (4) and C (5). Streptomyces sp. 796.1 produced different compounds, such as glucopiericidin A (6) and dehydro-piericidin A1a (7). The search for new metabolites in underexplored environments may therefore reveal new metabolites with potential application in different areas of biotechnology.

Olfactory Receptors (ORs) are a large family of G protein coupled receptors predominantly expressed by the main olfactory epithelium at nasal level and are responsible for the generation of smelling sense. Microarray and deep sequencing analyses, however, have demonstrated that ORs are ectopically expressed in various human tissues including testis, kidneys, adipose tissue and liver and their biological functions become to be unrevealed. Molecular and pharmacological approaches have shown that some of these ORs modulate glucose and lipid metabolism at multiple interfaces, suggesting that ORs might be part of the large family of nutrient sensors. i.e. molecular/ cellular machines that respond to a specific nutrient component. By using nutrients- derived agonists it has been shown that ORs effectively modulates glucose and lipid metabolism raising interest on their possible therapeutic application in the treatment of metabolic disorders including dyslipidemia, obesity and metabolic syndrome.

La crisis económica observada en México a partir del año 2009 tuvo consecuencias sociales importantes: aumento del desempleo, creciente empleo precario, bajos ingresos, carencia de seguridad social, incremento de los niveles de pobreza, mayores hogares con jefatura femenina, entre otras. Esta situación, llevó a numerosos familias sonorenses a una mayor vulnerabilidad social o a la disminución de recursos económicos y sociales para enfrentar exitosamente las situaciones adversas. Como resultado de una mayor vulnerabilidad social, la vivienda se convirtió en un activo amenazado por el entorno económico y social. Este artículo analiza la política social seguida por INFONAVIT en Sonora, tendiente a apoyar a las familias que por diversas causas dejaron de pagar sus créditos de vivienda o bien se encuentran seriamente presionadas para hacerlo. Tomando en cuenta las variables empleo, ingreso, gasto, familia, género y deuda, se analiza la información contenida en encuestas levantadas durante los años 2009 al 2012 en los hogares sonorenses. Se concluye que hoy en día las familias son más vulnerables en un escenario económico y social desfavorable.
Risk-based prioritization of operational condition assessments : Jennings Randolph case study

The US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) operates, maintains, and manages over $232 billion worth of the Nation’s water resource infrastructure. Using Operational Condition Assessments (OCA), the USACE allocates limited resources to assess asset condition in efforts to minimize risks associated with asset performance degradation, but decision makers require a greater understanding of those risks. The analysis of risk associated with Flood Risk Management assets in the context of its associated watershed system includes understanding the consequences of the asset’s failure and a determination of the likelihood that the asset will perform as expected given the current OCA ratings of critical components. This research demonstrates an application of a scalable methodology to model the probability of a dam performing as expected given the state of its subordinate gates and their components. The research team combines this likelihood with consequences generated by the application of designed simulation experiments with hydrological models to develop a measure of risk. The resulting risk scores serve as an input for an optimization program that outputs the optimal set of components to conduct OCAs on to minimize risk in the watershed. Proof-of-concept results for an initial case study on the Jennings Randolph Dam are provided.
The influence of sediment supply on the stratigraphic evolution of an ancient passive margin deep-marine slope channel system, Windermere Supergroup, British Columbia, Canada

At the Castle Creek study area a superbly exposed continental-slope channel-complex set of the Isaac Formation termed ICC1 crops out. ICC1 is 220 m thick and exposed over 5 km parallel to bedding and consists of four vertically stacked channel complexes—lower channel complex (LC), and three upper channel complexes (termed UC1–UC3). Based on differences in lithological and textural makeup, and stratal trends, two styles of channel fill and stacking pattern are recognized—disorganized stack of bottom-up channel fills (LC, UC1, and UC2), and organized lateral-offset stack of laterally accreting channel fills (UC3). Bottom-up channel fills show an upward and axis-to-margin fining and thinning, and were filled by poorly sorted, density-stratified flows. In contrast, channel fills of UC3 exhibit negligible upward and lateral fining and thinning and were filled by flows enriched in coarse and very coarse sand and were only negligibly stratified in their lower part. Accordingly, the lower, depositionally important part of the flow had a plug-like density profile with limited overspill that caused circulation patterns in channel bends to resemble those in rivers. Notably, the grain-size makeup of late-stage channel fills of UC3 indicates a change in the makeup of the sediment supply, namely grain size and sorting. Note that this systematic upward change in sediment texture and channel type is observed in most (5 of 8) Isaac slope channel-complex sets at the Castle Creek study area. These changes reflect a change from hinterland- to shelf-dominated sediment supply interpreted to be associated with a long-term rise of relative sea level that progressively expanded continental-shelf accommodation and retention of coarse relict and palimpsest sediment. During short-term relative sea-level falls this increasingly voluminous source of coarse, moderately well-sorted siliciclastic and minor carbonate sediment eventually came to dominate the supply of coarse sediment to the shelf edge, and in turn, controlled the character of turbidity currents that remobilized sediment farther down the continental slope and possibly onto the basin floor.
Feminism, ideology, and the law: the role of women in the literary works “The Handmaid’s Tale” and “The Power”
Authors: Guimarães Henrique Cassalho , Garroni Luiza Muniz
Published: April 2022

This paper is an investigation on the ideological social construct of the role women play in society, as well as the feminist achievements, based on the novels The Handmaid’s Tale, by Margaret Atwood, and The Power, by Naomi Alderman. Firstly, the analysis is about the theories of ideology and the social influence of its interrelation with the law and the State. After that, the research focuses on the narrative of the selected literary works – by using methodological contributions from the Law and Literature movement – to question the role of women in contemporary society, with suggestions to reach gender equality in reality.
Direito, natureza e ficção científica: a questão ecológica em "Criador de estrelas" de Olaf Stapledon
Authors: Franco Dabel Leandro
Published: April 2022

What can a science fiction novel from the early 20th century offer to contemporary environmental law? This essay develops a series of reflections on the contributions of the novel Star Maker, by Olaf Stapleton (1937), published in 1937, to rethink and redesign the legal instruments directed to environment or nature protection. The paper approaches different topics from the novel in relation to reflections of legal- theoretical nature, related to ecology: the overcoming of anthropocentrism, the critique of industrialization and the debates on development, the concepts of harmony, diversity, interrelation, interdependence and complementarity and the recognition of rights to non- human entities. The contrast between excerpts from Star Maker and the theoretical perspectives that link law and nature makes it possible to visualize the potential that the work offers to articulate and rethink law in the context of the ecological crisis and global climate emergency.
Equal Quality Distribution of Two-Phase Fluid by Isokinetic Principle

Published: April 2022

In thermal recovery of heavy oil, phase separation often occurs when a steam-water stream turns to branches in a junction and distributor, thereby resulting in a significant quality deviation between branches. Although a lot of efforts have been made during the past decades, the problem is still not well solved. Inspired by the principle of the isokinetic probe, this paper builds a new model of distribution. The major change is that the inner space of the main pipe is isolated into fan-shaped isokinetic flow channels, each connecting to a side branch. Flow control devices are installed at the outlet of each branch. Moreover, a swirler is used to convert the incoming flow pattern into a uniform swirling gas core-annular flow before the new isokinetic dividing system. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were conducted to reveal the characteristics of gas-liquid two-phase flow within the distributor. The characteristics of both under isokinetic and nonisokinetic flow conditions were analyzed. The most interesting result is that once the uniform swirling gas core-annular flow is formed, liquid film flow becomes very stable and is almost unaffected by the operation deviations from the isokinetic condition, whereas gas flow is much more sensitive to the deviations. The more deviation of isokinetic condition, the more deflection of gas flow or phase separation will take place and the greater quality deviation will be. Air-water two-phase flow experiments were also conducted to verify the CFD results.
