Nonlinear model of the PEM fuel cell system was introduced to study the design problems of the state observer and model based controller. A cascade observer using the filtering technique was used to estimate the pressure derivatives of the cathode and the anode in the system. In order to estimate the pressures of the cathode and the anode, the sliding mode observer was designed by using these pressure derivatives. To estimate the oxygen pressure and the hydrogen pressure in the system, the nonlinear state observer was designed by using the cathode pressure estimates and the anode it. These results will be very useful to design the state feedback controller. The validity of the proposed observers and the controller has been investigated by using a Lyapunov's stability analysis strategy.展开更多

In order to investigate the influence of three key molar ratios (n(SiO2)/n(Al2O3), n(K2O)/n(Al2O3) and n(H2O)/n(K2O)), a total of nine potassium poly-sialate-disiloxo (K-PSDS) geopolymeric cement matri...In order to investigate the influence of three key molar ratios (n(SiO2)/n(Al2O3), n(K2O)/n(Al2O3) and n(H2O)/n(K2O)), a total of nine potassium poly-sialate-disiloxo (K-PSDS) geopolymeric cement matrices were designed according to orthogonal design principle. Subsequently, XRD, ESEM-EDXA and MAS-NMR techniques were employed to further characterize the microstructure of the most fully reacted geopolymeric cement matrix. The experimental results show that n(K2O)/n(Al2O3) has the most significant effect on compressive strength amongst the three ratios. The highest compressive strength (20.1 MPa) can be achieved when n(SiO2)/n(Al2O3)=6.5, n(K2O)/n(Al2O3)=0.8 and n(HEO)/n(K2O)=10.0. The FTIR spectra of nine PSDS geopolymeric cement matrices also indicate that geopolymeric cement matrix with the highest strength is the most fully reacted one and possesses the largest amount of geopolymeric cement products. The microscopic analysis reveals that PSDS geopolymeric cement matrix possesses structural characteristics similar to gel substances in having a wide range of Si endowments, but predominantly the framework molecular chains of Si partially replaced by 4-coordinated Al tetrahedral.展开更多

The electronic structure of the system is calculated using the Kohn-Sham scheme of density functionai theory (DFT). The DFT eigenvectors are then transformed into a set of maximaily localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) [N. Maxzari and D. Vanderbilt, Phys. Rev. B 56 (1997) 12847]. The MLWFs are used as a minimai basis set to obtain the Hamitonian matrices of the scattering region and the adjacent leads, which are needed for transport calculation using the nonequilibrium Green's function formalism. The coupling of the scattering region to the semi-infinite leads is described by the self-energies of the leads. Using the nonequilibrium Green's function method, one calculates self-consistently the charge distribution of the system under bias and evaluates the transmission and current through the system. To solve the Poisson equation within the scheme of MLWFs I introduce a computationally efficient method. The method is applied to a molecular hydrogen contact in two transition metal monatomic wires (Cu and Pt). It is found that for Pt the I-V characteristics is approximately linear dependence, however, for Cu the I-V characteristics manifests a linear dependence at low bias voltages and exhibits apparent nonlinearity at higher bias voltages. I have also calculated the transmission in the zero bias voltage limit for a single CO molecule adsorbed on Cu and Pt monatomic wires. While a chemical scissor effect occurs for the Cu monatomic wire with an adsorbed CO molecule, it is absent for the Pt monatomie wire due to the contribution of d-orbitals at the Fermi energy,展开更多
