In terms of an arc' s physical properties, the lamellar structure may be divided into three regions : the ionization region, the recombination region and gas fringes. A large gradient of electron density exists between regions ; this causes differences in the physical properties of an arc. In this study, the scale of ionizing regions in TIG arc is accurately determined with experimental conditions by a spectroscopic diagnostic method, which is also used to investigate the distribution of the electron density of the arc. More precise dimensions of arc energy distribution are described; the paper also discusses the difference with or without the influence of metal vapor from the weld pool.展开更多

Besides, the Monte Carlo Geant4 code was employed to simulate the electron migration in the fuel-rod gap and the energy distribution of electrons was found. As for the results, the accuracy of the FPE was compared to the Geant4 code outcomes and a satisfactory agreement was found. Also, different percentage of the volatile and noble gas fission fragments produced in fission reactions in fuel rod, i.e. Krypton, Xenon, Iodine, Bromine, Rubidium and Cesium were employed so as to investigate their effects on the electrons' energy distribution. The present results show that most of the electrons in the fuel rod's gap were within the thermal energy limitation and the tail of the electron energy distribution was far from a Maxwellian distribution. The interesting outcome was that the electron energy distribution is slightly increased due to the accumulation of fission fragments in the gap. It should be noted that solving the FPE for the energy straggling electrons that are penetrating into the fuel-rod gap in the VVER-1000 nuclear reactor has been carried out for the first time using an analytical approach.展开更多

In this work, the functional relation has been established between the ionization density distribution and the function of the ion energy distribution through the basic equations governing the ion flow in the Hall thruster channel and the method achieved for reconstructing the ionization density distribution inside the channel by ordinary plasma diagnosis of the potential distribution and ion energy spectrum of the plasma jet. The ionization density distributions of single and double charged ions in an ATON-thruster channel have been reconstructed according to the experimental data of the potential distribution along the axis of the channel and the ion energy spectrum of the plasma jet. The agreement between the calculation and experimental results of the percentage of double charged ions proves the validity of our method achieved in this work.展开更多

Besides, the Monte Carlo Geant4 code was employed to simulate the electron migration in the fuel-rod gap and the energy distribution of electrons was found. As for the results, the accuracy of the FPE was compared to the Geant4 code outcomes and a satisfactory agreement was found. Also, different percentage of the volatile and noble gas fission fragments produced in fission reactions in fuel rod, i.e. Krypton, Xenon, Iodine, Bromine, Rubidium and Cesium were employed so as to investigate their effects on the electrons' energy distribution. The present results show that most of the electrons in the fuel rod's gap were within the thermal energy limitation and the tail of the electron energy distribution was far from a Maxwellian distribution. The interesting outcome was that the electron energy distribution is slightly increased due to the accumulation of fission fragments in the gap. It should be noted that solving the FPE for the energy straggling electrons that are penetrating into the fuel-rod gap in the VVER-1000 nuclear reactor has been carried out for the first time using an analytical approach.

文摘Due to widespread applications of the bent ducts in engineering fields such as in chemical,mechanical,bio-mechanical and bio-medical engineering,scientists have paid considerable attention to invent new characteristics of fluid flow in a bent duct(BD).In the ongoing study,a spectral-based numerical technique is applied to explore flow characteristics and energy distribution through a loosely bent square duct(BSD)of small curvature.Flow is accelerated due to combined action of the non-dimensional parameters;the Grashof number Gr(=1000),the curvatureδ(=0.001),and the Prandtl number Pr(=7.0)over a wide domain of the Dean number 0<Dn≤5000.Fortran code is developed for the numerical computations and Tecplot software with Gost Script and Gost View is used for the post-processing purpose.The numerical study investigates steady solutions(SS)and as a result,a structure of six-branches of SSs composed of 2-to 6-vortex solutions is obtained.Then oscillating behavior with flow transition is discussed by obtaining timedependent solutions followed by power-spectrum analysis.Results showthat the trend of unsteady flow(UF)undergoes in the sequence‘steady-state→multi-periodic→steady-state→chaotic→multi-periodic→chaotic’,if Dn is increased.Asymmetric 2-to 4-vortex solutions are obtained for UF.Convective heat transfer(CHT)is then examined obtaining temperature gradients and energy contours,and it is found that CHT is significantly enhanced by the secondary flow(SF).The present study reveals that the role of secondary vortices over heat transfer(HT)is highly significant and HT occurs substantially for the chaotic solutions.Finally,for the interest of validation,the present numerical result is compared with the previously published experimental outcomes,and a good agreement is remarked.

文摘A two-stage gas-coupled Stirling/pulse tube refrigerator(SPR),whose first and second stages respectively involve Stirling and pulse tube refrigeration cycles,is a very promising spaceborne refrigerator.The SPR has many advantages,such as a compact structure,high reliability,and high performance,and is expected to become an essential refrigerator for space applications.In research regarding gas-coupled regenerative refrigerator,the energy flow distribution between the two stages,and optimal phase difference between the pressure wave and volume flow,are two critical parameters that could widely influence refrigerator performance.The effects of displacer displacement on the pressure wave,phase difference,acoustic power distribution,and inter-stage cooling capacity shift of the SPR have been investigated experimentally.Notably,to obtain the maximum first-stage cooling capacity,an inflection point in displacement exists.When the displacer displacement is larger than the inflection point,the cooling capacity could be distributed between the first and second stages.In the present study,an SPR was designed and manufactured to work between the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen temperatures,which can be used to cool small-scale zero boil-off systems and space detectors.Under appropriate displacer displacement,the SPR can reach a no-load cooling temperature of 15.4 K and obtain 2.6 W cooling capacity at 70 K plus 0.1 W cooling capacity at 20 K with 160 W compressor input electric power.

文摘Taking an industrial park as an example,this study aims to analyze the characteristics of a distribution network that incorporates distributed energy resources(DERs).The study begins by summarizing the key features of a distribution network with DERs based on recent power usage data.To predict and analyze the load growth of the industrial park,an improved back-propagation algorithm is employed.Furthermore,the study classifies users within the industrial park according to their specific power consumption and supply requirements.This user segmentation allows for the introduction of three constraints:node voltage,wire current,and capacity of DERs.By incorporating these constraints,the study constructs an optimization model for the distribution network in the industrial park,with the objective of minimizing the total operation and maintenance cost.The primary goal of these optimizations is to address the needs of DERs connected to the distribution network,while simultaneously mitigating their potential adverse impact on the network.Additionally,the study aims to enhance the overall energy efficiency of the industrial park through more efficient utilization of resources.
文摘In the restructured electricity market,microgrid(MG),with the incorporation of smart grid technologies,distributed energy resources(DERs),a pumped-storage-hydraulic(PSH)unit,and a demand response program(DRP),is a smarter and more reliable electricity provider.DER consists of gas turbines and renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic systems and wind turbines.Better bidding strategies,prepared by MG operators,decrease the electricity cost and emissions from upstream grid and conventional and renewable energy sources(RES).But it is inefficient due to the very high sporadic characteristics of RES and the very high outage rate.To solve these issues,this study suggests non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm Ⅱ(NSGA-Ⅱ)for an optimal bidding strategy considering pumped hydroelectric energy storage and DRP based on outage conditions and uncertainties of renewable energy sources.The uncertainty related to solar and wind units is modeled using lognormal and Weibull probability distributions.TOU-based DRP is used,especially considering the time of outages along with the time of peak loads and prices,to enhance the reliability of MG and reduce costs and emissions.

文摘This paper examines the energy-absorption characteristics of trains for active-passive safety protection.A one-dimensional collision-simulation model of traditional subway vehicles and active-passive safety vehicles was developed based on the multibody dynamics theory using MATLAB simulation software.The effectiveness of the simulation model was verified by scaled-collision tests.Then,the energy-absorption characteristics of traditional trains and the active-passive safety trains under different marshalling conditions were studied.The results showed that as the number of marshalling vehicles increased from 5 to 8,the energy absorption of interface 1 for the active-passive safety trains during the collision was 681 kJ,775 kJ,840 kJ and 901 kJ,and the physical compression of the interface of the head car of the active-passive safety trains was 619 mm,704 mm,764 mm and 816 mm,which was far below the maximum value of 1773 mm.The head car of the active-passive safety subway vehicles therefore had sufficient energy-absorption capacity.Finally,to find the maximum safe impact velocity of the active-passive safety trains,the energy distribution of the active-passive safety subway vehicles with 8-car marshalling at different impact velocities was studied.It was found that the safe impact velocity of an active-passive safety subway vehicle conforming to the requirements of the EN15227 collision standard reached 32 km/h,far exceeding the safe impact velocity of 25 km/h allowed by traditional trains,and representing an increase in the safe impact velocity of 28%.The total collision-energy absorption of the interface of the head car of the active-passive trains was 89.1%higher than that of the traditional trains at the safe impact velocity.The active-passive energy absorption method was therefore effective at improving the crashworthiness of the subway trains.
文摘Propellant ionization in the Hall thruster discharge channel is a significant process and has strong influence on the thruster's efficiency. In this work, the functional relation has been established between the ionization density distribution and the function of the ion energy distribution through the basic equations governing the ion flow in the Hall thruster channel and the method achieved for reconstructing the ionization density distribution inside the channel by ordinary plasma diagnosis of the potential distribution and ion energy spectrum of the plasma jet. The ionization density distributions of single and double charged ions in an ATON-thruster channel have been reconstructed according to the experimental data of the potential distribution along the axis of the channel and the ion energy spectrum of the plasma jet. The agreement between the calculation and experimental results of the percentage of double charged ions proves the validity of our method achieved in this work.

文摘In this Letter, we focus on the theoretical analysis of the relativistic energy and angular distributions of the ejected photoelectrons during the relativistic tunnel ionization of atoms by intense, circularly polarized light. We make a small modification of the general analytical expressions for these distributions. The role of the initial momentum, the ponderomotive potential, and the Stark shift are considered. We also present the maximal angle of electron emission.
文摘Appressed and non-appressed lamella membranes of Castor bean leaf chloroplasts were separated by non-ionic detergent Triton-X 100.Appressed membranes showed a high oxygen-evolving activity and low chl a/b ratio. Examining with SDS-PTGE and liquid nitrogen temperature fluorescence measurement showed that they contained only PSII and light-harvesting pigment-protein complexes (LHCP),and there was no detectable amount of PSI. Freeze-fracture electromicroscopic observation confirmed that this part was really an appressed lamella membrane. Through divalent cation Mg++, the thylakoid membranes were induced to unstack and restack.With the addition of Mg++, the fluorescence intensity was changed instantly. We realized that there existed two processes:One was a rapid process which was accomplished within 30 s. The other was a slow process of which the time duration was about 60 min. This dual effects of Mg++ had not been reported before.We had analyzed the change of F685/F730 and discussed the
