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.展开更多

The results indicate that the upward transfer of the latent and the sensible heat fluxes over the winter hemisphere is larger than that over the summer hemisphere. The sensible heat over the tropical mid Pacific in the Southern Hemisphere is transported from the atmosphere to the ocean, though its magnitude is rather small. The latent heat flux gained by the air over the eastern Pacific is less than the mean value of the normal year. The net radiation, on which the cloud amount has considerable impact, is essentially zonally distributed. Moreover, the sea surface temperature (SST) has a very good correlation with the net radiation, the region of warm SST coinciding with that of the low net radiation. The net radiation obtained by the mid Pacific Ocean is reduced by the SST anomaly during the El Nino event, whereas the atmosphere over there get more latent heat flux, and this results in the diminution of the net heat gain of the ocean. The overview of the heat budget is that the ocean over the winter hemisphere is the energy source of the atmosphere, and that over the summer hemisphere its energy sink.展开更多

A detailed numerical study shows that the proper position of the lower boundary is critical when solving the Fourier equation by using zero heat ?ux as the lower boundary condition. Since the position de?nes the capacity of soil as a heat sink or source, which absorbs and stores radiation energy from the sky in summer and then releases the energy to the atmosphere in winter, and regulates the deep soil temperature distribution, the depth of the position greatly in?uences the heat balance within the soil as well as the interaction between the soil and the atmosphere. Based on physical reasoning and the results of numerical simulation, the proper depth of the position should be equal to approximately 3 times of the annual heat wave damping depth. For most soils, the proper lower boundary depth for the Fourier equation should be around 8 m to 15 m, depending on soil texture.展开更多

Analysis of these test data serves as a measure to indicate deviation from normal operation profile and deterioration of plant performance. This present work implemented the heat balance tests process to three turb- generator units in order to assess the harmony, consistency, and accuracy of results to establish parallel correlation for the test process. The test process involves carrying out a heat balance for the turbo-generators at 50%, 75% and 100% load respectively through the determination of the heat losses through the hydrogen coolers, bearing oil, seal oil and radiation and convention to the atmosphere. Some important results were presented in the paper.展开更多

The experiment results in this paper indicate whether in the dry case or in the wet case of the large-scale climatological background field, the surface air temperature in a wide range of the transition zone migration and its surrounding decreases as the transition zone migrates northward. Moreover, the net upward fluxes of the surface long wave radiation and the sensible heat decrease, and the evaporation to the atmosphere increases. As the transition zone migrates southward, the results are opposite. This kind of significant thermal forcing between the land and the atmosphere can excite secondary circulation or circulation cells, which interact with the large-scale circulation systems, changing the atmospheric motion, affecting the water vapor transportation and consequently having an effect on the precipitation.展开更多

If the equatorial sea level does rise up, the northward slope to the sea level should facilitate the poleward flux of summer heat in both the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans, as two examples, in accordance with the heat budget requirements of these oceans. Compressed air dynamics consists of Bernoulli’s law applied to the streamlines of the Trade Winds, the force balance between the upward centrifugal force of the curved streamlines at the earth’s surface and a downward pressure force, and the perfect gas law for air.展开更多

By using data collected from eight buoys of TOGA (Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere)- COARE (Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment), the heat balances of the upper ocean in the western equatorial Pacific around 0 degrees, 156 degreesE during two WWB events were calculated according to Stevenson and Niiler's (1983) method. In both events, SST increased before and after the WWBs, while decreased within the WWBs. The SST amplitudes approximated to 1 degreesC. Although sometimes the horizontal heat advections may become the biggest term in the heat balance, the variation of SST was dominated by the surface heat flux. On the other aspect, some different features of the two events are also revealed. The two cases have different variation of mixed layer depth. The depth of mixed layer is almost double in the first case (35 in to 70 m), which is caused by Ekman convergence, while only 10m increments due to entrainment in the second one, There are also differences in the currents structure. The different variations of thermal and currents structure in the mixing layers accounted for the different variation of the heat balance during the two events, especially the advection and residue terms. The seasonal variation of SST in this area is also investigated simply. The first WWB event happened just during the seasonal transition. So we considered that it is a normal season transition rather than a so-called anomaly. That also suggested that the seasonal distinction of the WWB is worthy of more attention in the researches of its relationship to ENSO.展开更多

Sap flow in stems of Z ramosissima plants were measured continuously to determine the diurnal and seasonal variations of sap flow and to understand the water requirements of this species and the response of sap flow to meteorological factors. This article compared the sap flow rate measured by the heat balance method with the transpiration rate measured by rapid weighing, and validated that heat balance sap flow gauges were reliable for monitoring transpiration. The influence of meteorological factors on stem sap flow during the growing season was: solar radiation 〉 vapor pressure deficit 〉 air temperature 〉 rela- tive humidity 〉 wind speed. Bidirectional sap flows occurred at night, and negative sap flow generally corresponded to high atmospheric humidity. The average error in predicted sap flow rate ranged from -0.78% to 14.00% from June to September and for transpiration the average error was 8.19%. Therefore, based on the functional equations between sap flow and meteorological factors as well as sapwood area, transpiration of an individual plant, and even the stand-level transpiration, can be estimated accurately through extrapolation.展开更多

One unit equals one latitude/longitude square. While increasing by swelling to the north, the temperature inside the area essentially does not increase, in spite of the self-evident fact that absorption of solar heat increases the whole time in the top 100 m of the water column. It is proposed that sea level rises by thermal expansion, starting at the equator, producing a northward slope in sea level which in turn drives warm water in the surface layer northward. This proposition is consistent with the heat balance required of the North Atlantic.</span> </p> <span><span><span style="line-height:102%;"></span></span></span>展开更多

文摘The responses of sea surface temperature (SST) in the western equatorial Pacific warm pool to the westerly wind bursts (WWBs) play an important role in the relationship between WWB and ENSO. By using data collected from eight buoys of TOGA (Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere)- COARE (Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment), the heat balances of the upper ocean in the western equatorial Pacific around 0 degrees, 156 degreesE during two WWB events were calculated according to Stevenson and Niiler's (1983) method. In both events, SST increased before and after the WWBs, while decreased within the WWBs. The SST amplitudes approximated to 1 degreesC. Although sometimes the horizontal heat advections may become the biggest term in the heat balance, the variation of SST was dominated by the surface heat flux. On the other aspect, some different features of the two events are also revealed. The two cases have different variation of mixed layer depth. The depth of mixed layer is almost double in the first case (35 in to 70 m), which is caused by Ekman convergence, while only 10m increments due to entrainment in the second one, There are also differences in the currents structure. The different variations of thermal and currents structure in the mixing layers accounted for the different variation of the heat balance during the two events, especially the advection and residue terms. The seasonal variation of SST in this area is also investigated simply. The first WWB event happened just during the seasonal transition. So we considered that it is a normal season transition rather than a so-called anomaly. That also suggested that the seasonal distinction of the WWB is worthy of more attention in the researches of its relationship to ENSO.

文摘Tamarix ramosissima Ledeb. is a typical hardy desert plant growing in arid regions of Northwest China. Sap flow in stems of Z ramosissima plants were measured continuously to determine the diurnal and seasonal variations of sap flow and to understand the water requirements of this species and the response of sap flow to meteorological factors. This article compared the sap flow rate measured by the heat balance method with the transpiration rate measured by rapid weighing, and validated that heat balance sap flow gauges were reliable for monitoring transpiration. The influence of meteorological factors on stem sap flow during the growing season was: solar radiation 〉 vapor pressure deficit 〉 air temperature 〉 rela- tive humidity 〉 wind speed. Bidirectional sap flows occurred at night, and negative sap flow generally corresponded to high atmospheric humidity. The average error in predicted sap flow rate ranged from -0.78% to 14.00% from June to September and for transpiration the average error was 8.19%. Therefore, based on the functional equations between sap flow and meteorological factors as well as sapwood area, transpiration of an individual plant, and even the stand-level transpiration, can be estimated accurately through extrapolation.

文摘Through the comparison of calcination conditions between cement preclinkering technology and cement precalcining technology,we studied the characteristics of temperature field distribution of cement preclinkering technology systems including cyclone preheater,preclinkering furnace,and rotary kiln.We used numericalsimulation method to obtain data of temperature field distribution.Some results are found by system study.The ratio of tailcoalof cement preclinkering technology is about 70%,and raw mealtemperature can reach 1070 ℃.Shorter L/D kiln type of preclinkering technology can obtain more stable calcining zone temperature.The highest solid temperature of cement preclinkering technology is higher than 80 ℃,and high temperature region(〉1450 ℃)length is 2 times,which is beneficialfor calcining clinker and higher clinker quality.So cement preclinkering technology can obtain more performance temperature filed,which improves both the solid-phase reaction and liquid-phase reaction.

One unit equals one latitude/longitude square. While increasing by swelling to the north, the temperature inside the area essentially does not increase, in spite of the self-evident fact that absorption of solar heat increases the whole time in the top 100 m of the water column. It is proposed that sea level rises by thermal expansion, starting at the equator, producing a northward slope in sea level which in turn drives warm water in the surface layer northward. This proposition is consistent with the heat balance required of the North Atlantic.</span> </p> <span><span><span style="line-height:102%;"></span></span></span>
文摘Energy balances are a general fundamental approach for analyzing the heat requirements for metallurgical processes.The formulation of heat balance equations was involved by computing the various components of heat going in and coming out of the oxygen steelmaking furnace.The developed model was validated against the calculations of Healy and McBride.The overall heat losses that have not been analyzed in previous studies were quantified by back-calculating heat loss from 35 industrial data provided by Tata Steel.The results from the model infer that the heat losses range from 1.3%to 5.9%of the total heat input and it can be controlled by optimizing the silicon in hot metal,the amount of scrap added and the postcombustion ratio.The model prediction shows that sensible heat available from the hot metal accounts for around 66%of total heat input and the rest from the exothermic oxidation reactions.Out of 34%of the heat from exothermic reactions,between 20%and 25%of heat is evolved from the oxidation of carbon to carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide.This model can be applied to predict the heat balance of any top blown oxygen steelmaking technology but needs further validation for a range of oxygen steelmaking operations and conditions.

文摘Observations collected in the Badan Jaran desert hinterland and edge during 19-23 August 2009 and in the Jinta Oasis during 12-16 June 2005 are used to assess three methods for calculating the heat storage of the5-20-cm soil layer.The methods evaluated include the harmonic method,the conduction-convection method,and the temperature integral method.Soil heat storage calculated using the harmonic method provides the closest match with measured values.The conduction-convection method underestimates nighttime soil heat storage.The temperature integral method best captures fluctuations in soil heat storage on sub-diurnal timescales,but overestimates the amplitude and peak values of the diurnal cycle.The relative performance of each method varies with the underlying land surface.The land surface energy balance is evaluated using observations of soil heat flux at 5-cm depth and estimates of ground heat flux adjusted to account for soil heat storage.The energy balance closure rate increases and energy balance is improved when the ground heat flux is adjusted to account for soil heat storage.The results achieved using the harmonic and temperature integral methods are superior to those achieved using the conduction-convection method.
文摘Biomass can be converted intoflammable gas,charcoal,wood vinegar,wood tar oil and noncombustible materials with thermo-chemical pyrolysis reactions.Many factors influence these processes,such as the properties of the raw materials,and temperature control and these will affect the products that are produced.Based on the data from a straw pyrolysis demonstration project,the mass and heat balance of the biomass pyrolysis process were analyzed.The statistical product and service solutions(SPSS)statistical method was used to analyze the data which were monitored on-site.A cost-benefit analysis was then used to study the viability of commercializing the project.The analysis included net present value,internal rate of return and investment payback period.These results showed that the straw pyrolysis project has little risk,and will produce remarkable economic benefits.

文摘Solar-air source heat pump(solar-ASHP)system has a potential application in the field of hot water and space heating in residential buildings.Such system features the complementary advantages to solve the discontinuous operation of the single solar system and the frosting issue of the single ASHP system.This paper built the solar-ASHP systems in Kunming and Shangri-La,and tested the system performance under different weather conditions in these two regions of plateau.Meanwhile,the transient heat balance models of the system were established under the sunlight time and non-sunlight time and were verified by the experimental results.Moreover,the verified model was applied to reveal the energy balance performance between the energy supply and building heat demand.The law of the system performance affected by the ambient temperature,effective heat collecting area,and cumulative heating capacity of collector was explored by the validated model.The results indicate that when the ambient temperature decreases by 1℃during non-sunlight time,the energy efficiency ratio decreases by about 0.07.A square meter decline in the effective heat collecting area pushes an increase in the heating capacity of 5.75 MJ.Meanwhile,the cumulative heating capacity of collector increases by 5 MJ,and the ASHP energy consumption decreases by 0.54 kWh.The dynamic changes of the ambient temperature and instantaneous solar radiation are the main reasons of the heat balance errors.Therefore,both the developed system and model are feasible and reliable in different climate regions.

文摘The ever-increasing atmospheric CO_(2) concentration is a key driver of modern global warming.However,the low heat capacity of atmosphere and strong convection processes in the troposphere both limit heat retention.Given the higher heat capacity and CO_(2) concentration in soil compared to the atmosphere,the direct contributions of soil to the greenhouse effect may be significant.By experimentally manipulating CO_(2) concentrations both in the soil and the atmosphere,we demonstrated that the soil-retained heat and the slower soil heat transmission decrease the amount of heat energy leaking from the earth.Furthermore,the soil air temperature was affected by soil CO_(2) concentration,with the highest value recorded at 7500 ppm CO_(2).This study indicates that soil and soil CO_(2),together with atmospheric CO_(2),play a crucial role in the greenhouse effect.The spatial and temporal heterogeneity of soils and soil CO_(2) should be further investigated,given their potentially significant influence on global climate change.
文摘One of the most common methods for calculating the production oil rate in a gas lift well is nodal analysis.This manner is an accurate one,but unfortunately it is very time consuming and slow.In some modern studies in petroleum engineering such as close loop control of the wells this slowness makes it impossible to have an online optimization.In fact,before the end of the optimization the input parameters have changed.Thus having a faster model is necessary specially in some of the new studies.One of the sources of slowness of the nodal analysis is the temperature profile estimation of the wells.There are two general approaches for temperature profile estimation,some like heat balance are accurate but slow.Others,similar to linear profile assumption are fast but inaccurate and usually are not used commonly.Here,as a new approach,a combination model of heat balance and linear temperature profile estimation has represented which makes the nodal analysis three times faster and it is as accurate as heat balance calculations.To create this,two points(gas injection point and end of tubing)are selected,then using heat balance equations the temperature of those two points are calculated.In normal nodal analysis the temperature of each wanted point in the well is estimated by heat balance and it is the source of slowness but here just two points are calculated using those complex equations.It seems that between these points assuming a linear temperature profile is reasonable because the parameters of the well and production such as physical tubing,and casing shape and properties and gas oil ratio are constants.But of course,it still has some deviation from the complete method of heat balance which using regression and assigning a coefficient to the model even this much of the deviation could be overcame.Finally,the model was tested in various wells and it was compared with the normal nodal analysis with complete heat balance models.Results showed that the new model is as accurate as normal heat balance but three times faster.
文摘For Russia,there is no alternative way of a civilized solution to the problem of municipal solid wastes(MSW):through combustion(energy utilization)to complex processing.The government of the Russian Federation in 2017 adopted some decisions aimed at thermal processing of MSW.The order defines the construction of renewable energy facilities on the basis of MSW with a total electric capacity of 280 MW in Moscow region and one object with an electric capacity of 55 MW in the Republic of Tatarstan.In Russia,only three plants where the energy potential of MSW is converted into electricity were built.The results of the operation experience of fluidized bed furnaces for MSW incineration at Rudnevo plant in Russia are done.The main problems were connected with ash properties,deposit formation,and corrosion of superheater tubes.Also,the data of mathematical modeling of dynamic behavior near gas burners,chemical composition and material balance of solids,and the influence of secondary air injection on NOx formation are given.A special test rig was designed for the investigation of the corrosion mechanism.Also,the main corrosion factors(temperature of the tube surface,rates of O_(2),HCl,SO_(2),and H_(2)O in flue gas,contains chloride and alkali metals in deposits)were found during the tests.Experience of energy recovery from waste incineration of pulp and paper mill plants is presented.Considerable attention is paid to improv-ing the efficiency of waste incineration and bed particle agglomeration.Special experiments were carried out to optimize the bed drain flow rate.The influence of secondary air supply improvement on mixing with the main flow and boiler efficiency is given.Semi-empirical three-zone method of engineering heat calculations for fluidized bed furnaces of biomass boilers was proposed to predict both the value of outlet furnace temperature and the value of fluidized bed temperature.The method based on empirical values and relationships of the share of heat release in fluidized bed zone.
