Since the water content in the leaf is low, it needs to process with the conditioning treatment for a short time beforetobacco grading, so as to improve the tobacco moisture content and reduce breakage, as well as ensure the quality and yield of tobacco, ahd meet the requirements of the follow-up process of tobacco. Therefore, a comprehensive overview was given to the pre-conditioning method for tobacco leaf, and the current application status of tobacco leaf pre-conditioning equipment in China was explored.展开更多

The purification law of nitrogen in Deyeuxia angustifolia, Carex lasiocarpa and Deyeuxia angustifolia-Carex lasiocarpa combined wetland systems in the Sanjiang Plain, China was studied by field simulation experiment. ...The purification law of nitrogen in Deyeuxia angustifolia, Carex lasiocarpa and Deyeuxia angustifolia-Carex lasiocarpa combined wetland systems in the Sanjiang Plain, China was studied by field simulation experiment. The results indicate that the removal rates of TN, NH4^+-N and NO3^--N in above three types of wetlands present an obvious logarithm growth trend along with the time. There are evident removal effects for NH4+-N and NOa--N in water bodies of wetlands after the 30th day of experiment, with the removal rates over 80.0%, but the removal rate of TN is slightly low, being 63.1%-74.3%. NO3 -N is most quickly removed by the combined wetland, and NH4^+-N by Deyeuxia angustifolia wetland. The removal speeds of TN by the three wetland systems are comparatively slow, of which the Deyeuxia angustifolia wetland is the fastest. In consideration of plant growth season, Deyeuxia angustifolia wetland has much more practical application value in purifying nitrogen. These results can provide references for the study on the purification function of wetlands and the control of non-point source pollution in Northeast China.展开更多

Capello) were grown on peat-based substrate and treated with high (4.5 mS cm-1) and low (2.3 mS cm-1) nutrient solution electric conductivity(EC) under high and low substrate water contents. FOur weeks after the beginning of the treatments, photosynthesis (Th) was measured under different humidity and temperatures to examine the interactive effectswith rhizosphere salinity and water deficit. A rectangular hyperbolic model fitted the light-photosynthesiscurve. Photosynthetic capacity (PC) was decreased but quantum yield (YQ) was increased by rhizospheresalinity caused by high EC. PN was decreased by low humidity only in high EC- and/or water-stressed plants.Under high photosynthetic photon flux (PPF), low humidity induced PC decline in water-stressed plants andPN oscillation in high-EC-treated plants. PN increased steadily as the leaf temperature changed from 18 Cto 23 and then decreased steadily from 23 to 38 . At 34 , PN decreased significantly in waterstressed plants. Dark respiration (RD) increased in an exponential manner as the leaf temperature changedfrom 18 to 38 to an extent about ten times higher under 38 than under 18 . Our data suggestedthat PN decrease under high temperature was attributed, st least in part, to the increased RD. RD in highEC- and/or water-stressed plants was higher than that in the plants of control under lower temperature butlower than that in the plants of control under high temperature. The analysis of stomatal and mesophyllconductance showed that low humidity effect was mainly through stomatal response while temperature effectwas mainly through biochemical functions. The result showed that environmental stresses affected PN in anadditive or synergistic manner.展开更多

Betel leaf was treated by 7 methods and the optimized method was selected for preparation of Betel leaf extract. The fresh Betel leaf and dried Betel leaf were used in this study. Betel leaf extracts were analysed for total phenolic content and essential oil as eugenol content. Then Betel leaf extracts were used as the one component for moisturizing hand cream. The lipid oxidation was evaluated by measurement on malondialdehyde content. The results revealed that an extracts solution from dried Betel leaf contained total phenolic content and eugenol content more than flesh Betel leaf. The ethanol extraction method was the optimum method since this method showed the maximum total phenolic content and eugenol content in dried Betel leaf as 5.26 g/100 g and 138.95 mg/100 g, respectively. The moisturizing creams were formulated by using crude Betel leaf extracts as the one composition compare with base cream (no addition of Betel leaf extracts). The moisturizing cream samples were analysed for malondialdehyde. its showed that the cream that contained Betel leaf extract contained malondialdehyde content lower than in cream base. Thus, crude extracts from Betel leaf showed the efficacy to reduce lipid oxidation reaction in moisturizing hand cream.展开更多

Results showed that the tendency of "decreasing after increasing" was obvious in wet season. However, a relatively stable trend was observed for the transpiration in dry season.. Generally, the photon flux density of Carex meyeriana was higher in wet season than that in dry season. However, the variabilities of leaf temperature, air temperature and relative humidity were similar in both seasons. Higher transpiration rates of Carex meyeriana leaves were observed in July (varied from 40 to 150 mol·m-2·s-1) compared to those (varied from 7 to 14 mol·m-2·s-1) in September. Transpiration rates were significantly correlated with air temperature (P<0.01), leaf temperature (P<0.01), and wind speed (P<0.05), but correlationship between relative humidity and photo flux density was not significant (P<0.05).展开更多

In the transonic or supersonic flow where vapour is contained in the main flow, the rapid expansion of the flow may give rise to a non-equilibrium condensation. However, the effect of non-equilibrium condensation on the transonic internal flows around the airfoil has not yet been clarified satisfactorily. In the present study, the effect of non-equilibrium condensation of moist air on the self-excited shock wave oscillation on a circular arc blade was investigated numerically. The results showed that in the case with non-equilibrium condensation, frequencies of the flow oscillation became smaller than those without the non-equilibrium condensation.展开更多

The 3D Reynolds-Averaged gas-liquid two-phase flow control equation solver is explored with k-e-kp turbulence model. Furthermore, 3D flow numerical simulation on the last stage stator of the steam turbine is carried out. The results show that a sudden pressure rise on blade suction surface is mainly caused by the droplet growth in condensation flow. The more backward the condensation position is in cascade passage, the less the sudden pressure rise from condensation is, and the larger the nucleation rate is, the maximum under-cooling and the number of droplets per unit volume are. Interaction of condensation wave and shock wave has imposed greater influence on the parameters of the blade cascade outlet.展开更多
