The total coefficients of the kinetics equation of the hydrogen absorption and desorption process with shell diffusion as the controlling step were determined by semi-empirical and semi-theoretical methods, and the apparent activation energy of the hydrogen absorption process was obtained. The calculation results can well accord with the experimental data, and can well forecast the hydrogen storage capacity and absorption rate at different times. By using the kinetics equation, the effects of temperature and pressure on the hydrogen storage process can also be well understood. The kinetics equation is helpful for the design of the hydrogen storage container.展开更多

In order to improve efficiency, an improved differential evolution with shrinking space technique and adaptive trade-off model, named ATMDE, is proposed to solve constrained optimization problems. The proposed ATMDE algorithm employs an improved differential evolution as the search optimizer to generate new offspring individuals into evolutionary population. For the con- straints, the adaptive trade-off model as one of the most important constraint-handling techniques is employed to select better individuals to retain into the next population, which could effectively handle multiple constraints. Then the shrinking space technique is designed to shrink the search region according to feedback information in order to improve computational efficiency without losing accuracy. The improved DE algorithm introduces three different mutant strategies to generate different offspring into evo- lutionary population. Moreover, a new mutant strategy called "DE/rand/best/l" is constructed to generate new individuals according to the feasibility proportion ofcurrent population. Finally, the effectiveness of the pro- posed method is verified by a suite of benchmark functions and practical engineering problems. This research presents a constrained evolutionary algorithm with high efficiency and accuracy for constrained optimization problems.展开更多

It was found that there exist expanding mechanism and shrinking mechanism in the sintering process, and the expanding mechanism is always acting before the shrinking mechanism. Whether the sintering body shrinks or expands depends on the interaction between the two mechanisms. And according to this, the Huadong sintering model in account of expansion and shrinkage mechanism was given. [展开更多

In this regard, numerous investigations on reduction of oxides by C-O-H-N gas mixture have been reported. Attempts to simulate these reduction processes using shrinking core model, one of the common models used for such studies, have under predicted the reduction rates. This may be owing to the fact that the homogeneous reaction in the gas phase is not being considered. If the reaction temperatures are above 1,000 K, generally so for many reduction processes, the homogeneous gas reaction rates are expected to be high enough that local equilibrium in the gas phase can be assumed. In the present study, reduction of wustite in a C-O-H-N gas mixture has been modeled using shrinking core model considering the water gas shift equilibrium in the gas while it diffuses through the product layer.展开更多
