The influence of the nozzle geometry on pressure drop between nozzle inlet and outlet has been experimentally studied for different gas flow rates and bath depths. Nozzles with circular, gear-like and four-leaf cross-sectional shape have been studied. The results indicate that, besides the hydraulic diameter of the outlet, the orifice area and the perimeter of the nozzle tip also play significant roles. For the same superficial gas velocity, the average pressure drop from the four-leaf-shaped geometry is the least. The influence of bath depth was found negligible. A correlation for the modified Euler number considering the pressure drop is proposed depending on nozzle geometric parameter and on the modified Froude number with the hydraulic diameter of the nozzle do as characteristic length.展开更多

The TIB method and the conventional method for the micropropagation of strawberry seedlings were compared in terms of explant propagation coefficient, seedling fresh weight,contents of anthocyanins and chlorophyll, and photosynthetic characteristics. The results showed that an inoculation density of 40 explants/L was suitable for the micropropagation of ’Benihope’ strawberry seedlings in the TIB. The propagation coefficient, fresh weight, photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, transpiration coefficient, and the contents of total anthocyanins and chlorophyll of seedlings micropropagated in the TIB were significantly higher than those of the seedlings micropropagated by the conventional method. In conclusion, the TIB method was superior to the conventional method in the micropropagation of strawberry seedlings.The negative reciprocity did not occur between anthocyanins and chlorophyll in strawberry seedlings cultured under forced ventilation such as TIB.展开更多

This sensor under ultraviolet(UV) light emitting diode(LED) illumination exhibits a higher response to formaldehyde than that without UV illumination at low temperature. The sensitivities of the sensor under steady working condition were calculated for different gas concentrations. The sensitivity to formaldehyde of 7.14 mg/m^3 is about 15.91 under UV illumination with response time of 580 s and recovery time of 500 s. The device was fabricated through micro-electro-mechanical system(MEMS) processing technology. First, plasma immersion ion implantation(PIII) was adopted to form black polysilicon, then a nanoscale TiO_2 membrane with thickness of 53 nm was deposited by DC reactive magnetron sputtering to obtain the sensing layer. By such fabrication approaches, the nanoscale polysilicon presents continuous rough surface with thickness of 50 nm, which could improve the porosity of the sensing membrane. The fabrication process can be mass-produced for the MEMS process compatibility.展开更多
