Study on the Influence of Piloti on Mean Radiant Temperature in Residential Blocks by 3-D Unsteady State Heat Balance Radiation Calculation

Piloti is commonly used in tropical and subtropical climate zones to get high wind velocity and create shadowed areas in order to optimize the living environment of residential blocks,but there are few studies to reveal the influence of piloti on the radiant environment of residential blocks systematically. Taking the city of Guangzhou as an example,using 3-D Unsteady State Heat Balance Radiation Calculation Method,this paper shows that the mean radiant temperature( MRT) under piloti area increases with the increase of piloti ratio,and especially when piloti ratio is equal to 100%,the MRT increase trend becomes sharp. The MRT of exposed area decreases with the increase of piloti ratio,especially when piloti ratio reaches 100%,the decrease trend of MRT becomes sharp,which offers the reference for the study on piloti design in subtropical climate zones and further research on living environment by CFD simulation in residential blocks.

Analysis of Combined Radiation and Forced Convection Heat Transfer in 3D Laminar Flow over an Inclined Forward Facing Step

In the current study, a numerical investigation of three-dimensional combined convection-radiation heat transfer over an inclined forward facing step (FFS) in a horizontal rectangular duct is presented. The fluid is treated as a gray, absorbing, emitting and scattering medium. To simulate the incline surface of FFS, the blocked-off method is employed in this study. The set of governing equations for gas flow are solved numerically using the CFD technique to obtain the temperature and velocity fields. Since the gas is considered as a radiating medium, all of the convection, conduction and radiation heat transfer mechanisms are presented in the energy equation. For computation of radiative term in energy equation, the radiative transfer equation (RTE) is solved numerically by the discrete ordinates method (DOM) to find the divergence of radiative heat flux distribution inside the radiating medium. The effects of optical thickness, radiation-conduction parameter and albedo coefficient on heat transfer behavior of the system are carried out.

A Vertex-Centered and Positivity-Preserving Finite Volume Scheme for Two-Dimensional Three-Temperature Radiation Diffusion Equations on General Polygonal Meshes

Two-dimensional three-temperature(2-D 3-T)radiation diffusion equa-tions are widely used to approximately describe the evolution of radiation energy within a multimaterial system and explain the exchange of energy among electrons,ions and photons.In this paper,we suggest a new positivity-preserving finite volume scheme for 2-D 3-T radiation diffusion equations on general polygonal meshes.The vertex unknowns are treated as primary ones for which the finite volume equations are constructed.The edgemidpoint and cell-centered unknowns are used as auxiliary ones and interpolated by the primary unknowns,which makes the final scheme a pure vertex-centered one.By comparison,most existing positivity-preserving finite volume schemes are cell-centered and based on the convex decomposition of the co-normal.Here,the conormal decomposition is not convex in general,leading to a fixed stencil of the flux approximation and avoiding a certain search algo-rithm on complex grids.Moreover,the new scheme effectively alleviates the nu-merical heat-barrier issue suffered by most existing cell-centered or hybrid schemes in solving strongly nonlinear radiation diffusion equations.Numerical experiments demonstrate the second-order accuracy and the positivity of the solution on various distorted grids.For the problem without analytic solution,the contours of the nu-merical solutions obtained by our scheme on distorted meshes accord with those on smooth quadrilateral meshes.

Simulation and research on a 4T-cell based duplication redundancy SRAM for SEU radiation hardening

A novel 4T-cell based duplication redundancy SRAM is proposed for SEU radiation hardening applications. The memory cell is designed with a 65-nm low leakage process; the operation principle and the SEU radiation hardening mechanism are discussed in detail. The SEE characteristics and failure mechanism are also studied with a 3-D device simulator. The results show that the proposed SRAM structure exhibits high SEU hardening performance with a small cell size.

FORECAST OF WATER TEMPERATURE IN RESERVOIR BASED ON ANALYTICAL SOLUTION

The water temperature in reservoirs is difficult to be predicted by numerical simulations. In this article, a statistical model of forecasting the water temperature was proposed. In this model, the 3-D thermal conduction-diffusion equations were converted into a system consisting of 2-D equations with the Fourier expansion and some hypotheses. Then the statistical model of forecasting the water temperature was developed based on the analytical solution to the 2-D thermal equations. The~ simplified statistical model can elucidate the main physical mechanism of the temperature variation much more clearly than the numerical simulation with the Navier-Stokes equations. Finally, with the presented statistical model, the distribution of water temperature in the Shangyoujiang reservoir was determined.

Effect of charge sharing on the single event transient response of CMOS logic gates

This paper presents three new types of pulse quenching mechanism（NMOS-to-PMOS,PMOS-to-NMOS and NMOS-to-NMOS） and verifies them using 3-D TCAD mixed mode simulations at the 90 nm node. The three major contributions of this paper are：（1） with the exception of PMOS-to-PMOS,pulse quenching is also prominent for PMOS-to-NMOS and NMOS-to-NMOS in a 90 nm process.（2） Pulse quenching in general correlates weakly with ion LET,but strongly with incident angle and layout style（i.e.spacing between transistors and n-well contact area）.（3） Compact layout and cascaded inverting stages can be utilized to promote SET pulse quenching in combinatorial circuits.

Analysis of the Initial Stage Intracloud Lightning Using the Pulse Location Technique Based on the Fast Electric Field Change

Academy of Sciences,Beijing 100029 2 Lanzhou University,Lanzhou 730000 3 Cold and Arid Regions Environmental and Engineering Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences,Lanzhou 730000 4 Nanjing University of Information Science＆Technology,Nanjing 210044 Using both fast and slow electric field change sensors and field mill,multi-station observations on lightning flashes over China inland plateau areas were conducted during the summer of 2004.All of the stations were synchronized by GPS with a time-resolution of±50 ns.Using the different time of arrival（DTOA）and based on the fast electric field change sensor,a lightning radiation location technique was developed.Radiation pulses in the initial stages of five intracloud（IC）lightning discharges which occurred on 20 August were analyzed.The results indicate that the technique developed could effectively locate the lightning radiation sources.Furthermore,the lightning discharges were compared with the Doppler radar data.The results show that the radiation sources were well associated with the storm development.When the storm was at the mature stage with an echo top of about 10.9 km,the radiation sources ranged from 5.2 to 8.3 km above mean sea level;when the storm gradually became weaker,with echo top of about 7.9 km,the radiation sources ranged from 3.0 to 5.9 km.In particular,one of the IC lightning discharges ranged from 3.0 to 4.9 km during the dissipation stage of the storm.The results also indicate that the radiation sources were closely associated with the high reflectivity region（25–50 dBZ）of the storm,which,to some extent,demonstrates the reliability of the location results,thereby showing that multi-station observations of fast electric field change sensors could be a useful tool for monitoring the storm development.Location errors from radiation sources were also compared with the radar data and the results of a simple simulation.It was found that the errors were getting smaller when the radiation sources approached the center of the detection network, and vice versa.Compared with the limited experimental observations,the simulation results were found capable of effectively reflecting the location errors.
