泥底辟/泥火山流体热效应及其对天然气水合物赋存的影响

泥底辟/泥火山流体热效应对天然气水合物赋存的影响是探索泥底辟/泥火山发育区水合物赋存规律的关键问题。笔者在分析总结国外泥底辟/泥火山流体热异常及其对天然气水合物赋存之影响的基础上,重点探讨了我国南海北部陆坡珠江口盆地神狐海域SH5站位未钻获水合物的原因及泥底辟/泥火山流体热效应对天然气水合物赋存的影响。当初寄予厚望的位于泥底辟之上的SH5站位未成功钻遇水合物的原因是晚期泥底辟刺穿水合物稳定带使深部高温流体沿着泥底辟和断裂通道上侵,该过程致使水合物稳定带温度场升高进而导致早期形成的水合物发生分解,因此,泥底辟/泥火山的流体热效应会直接制约水合物的赋存。探索泥底辟/泥火山流体热效应及其对水合物成藏的影响,不仅为丰富和完善流体渗漏构造环境下天然气水合物成藏动力学研究与勘探提供了热力学理论依据,而且对天然气水合物勘探开发及资源潜力评价等具有重要的指导意义。

THERMOHYDRODYNAMIC LUBRICATION ANALYSIS ON EQUILIBRIUM POSITION AND DYNAMIC COEFFICIENT OF JOURNAL BEARING

The finite element method （FEM） is introduced to calculate the oil film pressure and temperature distribution of a journal bearing. The perturbation is performed directly on the finite element equation. Consequently, the Jacobian matrices of the oil film forces are concisely obtained. The equilibrium position of the bearing with a given static load is found by the Newton-Raphson method. As byproducts, dynamic coefficients are obtained simultaneously without any extra computing time. From the numerical results, it is concluded that the effects of film temperature on stiffness coefficients are bigger than those on damping coefficients. With the increase of rotational speed, the load capacity and the stiffness coefficients of the journal bearing are increased when the eccentricity is small, while decreased when the eccentricity is big.

Novel lateral insulated gate bipolar transistor on SOI substrate for optimizing hot-carrier degradation

A novel lateral insulated gate bipolar transistor on a silicon-on-insulator substrate SOI-LIGBT with a special low-doped P-well structure is proposed.The P-well structure is added to attach the P-body under the channel so as to reduce the linear anode current degradation without additional process.The influence of the length and depth of the P-well on the hot-carrier HC reliability of the SOI-LIGBT is studied.With the increase in the length of the P-well the perpendicular electric field peak and the impact ionization peak diminish resulting in the reduction of the hot-carrier degradation. In addition the impact ionization will be weakened with the increase in the depth of the P-well which also makes the hot-carrier degradation decrease.Considering the effect of the low-doped P-well and the process windows the length and depth of the P-well are both chosen as 2 μm.

MHD mixed convective stagnation-point flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid over stretching cylinder with thermal slip conditions

The optimal design of heating and cooling systems must take into account heat radiation which is a non-linear process.In this study,the mixed convection in a radiative magnetohydrodynamic Eyring-Powell copperwater nanofluid over a stretching cylinder was investigated.The energy balance is modeled,taking into account the non-linear thermal radiation and a thermal slip condition.The effects of the embedded flow parameters on the fluid properties,as well as on the skin friction coefficient and heat transfer rate,are analyzed.Unlike in many existing studies,the recent spectral quasi-linearization method is used to solve the coupled nonlinear boundary-value problem.The computational result shows that increasing the nanoparticle volume fraction,thermal radiation parameter and heat generation parameter enhances temperature profile.We found that the velocity slip parameter and the fluid material parameter enhance the skin friction.A comparison of the current numerical results with existing literature for some limiting cases shows excellent agreement.

Thermal and concentration analysis of Phan-Thien-Tanner fluid flow due to ciliary movement in a peripheral layer

This paper presents the analysis of two-layer cilia induced flow of Phan-Thien-Tanner(PTT) fluid with thermal and concentration effect.The Phan-Thien-Tanner fluid model has been used in the analogy of mucus present in the respiratory tract.The two-layer model approach was used due to the Peri Ciliary liquid Layer(PCL) and Airway Ciliary Layer(ACL) present on the epithelium cell in respiratory tract.The mathematical modelling of two-layer flow problem was simplified using long wavelength and small Reynold ’ s number approximation.The resulting differential equation with moving boundary gives exact solution for velocity,temperature and concentration profiles in two layers.The change in pressure has calculated by the results of velocity profile,also the pressure rise was evaluated by the numerical integration of pressure gradient along the channel wall.The impact of physical parameters on pressure rise,velocity,temperature and concentration profile was explained by the graphs.It can be seen from graphs that velocity and temperature profile are maximum in the inner layer of fluid(PCL) and concentration profile is maximum at outer layers of fluid(ACL).

Peristalsis of nanofluid through curved channel with Hall and Ohmic heating effects

Nanofluids have attracted many scientists due to their remarkable thermophysical properties.Small percentage of nanoparticles when added to conventional fluid significantly enhances the heat transfer features.Sustainability and efficiency of nanomaterials have key role in the advancement of nanotechnology.This article analyzes the Hall,Ohmic heating and velocity slip effects on the peristalsis of nanofluid.Convective boundary conditions and heat generation/absorption are considered to facilitate the heat transfer characteristics.Governing equations for the peristaltic flow through a curved channel are derived in curvilinear coordinates.The equations are numerically solved under the assumption of long wavelength and small Reynold number.It has been observed that nanofluid enhances the heat transfer rate and reduces the fluid temperature.Hartman number and Hall parameter show reverse behavior in fluid motion and heat transfer characteristics.In the presence of velocity slip,the pressure gradient rapidly decreases and dominant effect is seen in narrow portion of channel.

MHD peristaltic flow in an inclined channel with heat and mass transfer

This paper addresses the peristaltic flow of magnetohydrodynamic viscous fluid in an inclined compliant wall channel. Different wave amplitudes and phases ensure asymme- try in the channel flow configuration. Simultaneous effects of heat and mass transfer are also considered. Viscous dissipation effect is present. The flow and heat transfer are investigated under long wavelength and low Reynolds number assumption. The expres- sions for stream function, axial velocity, temperature and concentration are obtained. The solution expressions for physical quantities are sketched and discussed. It is found that Brinkman and Hartman numbers have reverse effect on the temperature.
