The basic data on diffusion energy barriers and the diffusion characteristics of alkanes, cyclo- alkanes and aromatics in FAU and MFI zeolites were obtained. It was found out that the 12-member-ring openings between the two adjacent super cages limited the diffusion of hydrocarbons in FAU zeolites, and the hydrocarbon molecules diffused more easily in the intersections of MFI zeolite channels than in the straight channels between the intersections. It was more difficult for the molecules to diffuse in the sinusoidal channel of the MFI zeolite than in the straight channel because of the atoms at the comer of sinusoidal channel. The diffusion of three kinds of C6 alkanes was studied by gravity sorption method. The simulation results were well consistent with the experimental results, indicating that the simulation results were con- vincing.展开更多

By using an oceanic general circulation model, the authors focus on the contributions from two types of forcing: wind stress and thermohaline forcing. The simulated results show that the heat sink in the upper Southern Ocean comes mainly from thermohaline forcing; while in the deeper layers, wind stress forcing also plays an important role. These different contributions may be due to different physical processes for the heat budget. The combination of these two types of forcing shows a significant heat sink in the Southern Ocean in the recent hiatus decade, and this is consistent with the observations and conclusions of a similar recently published study.展开更多

It was cultured in a laboratory simulating field conditions, and its nutrient absorption was measured to evaluate effects of environmental conditions. Ammonia nitrogen (AN), nitrate nitrogen (NN), total inorganic nitrogen (TIN), and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) uptake rate and removal efficiency were determined in a 4~2 factorial design experiment in water temperatures (T) at 15~C and 25~C, algae biomass (AB) at 0.5 g/L and 1.0 g/L, total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) at 30 ~tmol/L and 60 ~tmol/L, and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP) at 3 and 6 ~tmol/L. AB and ambient TIN or SRP levels significantly affected uptake rate and removal efficiency of AN, NN, TIN, and SRP (P〈0.001). G. asiatica in AB of 0.5 g/L showed higher uptake rate and lower removal efficiency relative to that with AB of 1.0 g/L. Nitrogen and phosphorus uptake rate rose with increasing ambient nutrient concentrations; nutrient removal efficiency decreased at higher environmental nutrient concentrations. The algae preferred to absorb AN to NN. Uptake rates of AN, NN, and SRP were significantly affected by temperature (P〈0.001); uptake rate was higher for the 25~C group than for the 15~C group at the initial experiment stage. Only the removal efficiency of AN and SRP showed a significant difference between the two temperature groups (P〈0.01). The four factors had significant interactive effects on absorption of N and P, implying that G. asiatica has great bioremedial potential in sea cucumber culture ponds.展开更多

In these experiments, the rip currents and secondary circulations generated above barred beaches with rip channels are simulated. A comparison experiment is conducted to investigate the formation and hydrodynamics of the secondary circulations. Model results indicate that the secondary circulations consist of alongshore flows driven by wave set-up near the shoreline, part of the feeder currents driven by the wave set-up over the bars, and onshore flows at the end of the rip channel driven by wave breaking and convection. The existence of the secondary circulation barely affects the rip current, but narrows and intensifies the feeder currents. Three groups of experiments of varying incident wave conditions are performed to investigate the relationship between wave conditions and secondary circulation intensity. The velocity of the alongshore flow of the secondary circulation is sensitive to the variation of the incident wave height and water depth. It is also found that the alongshore flow intensity is in direct proportion to the alongshore variation of the wave height gradient between the bars and the shoreline.展开更多

For single coal particle combustion, the majority of f-uel-N (65%-82%) is released as NOx, while only a little (less than 8%) fuel-N yields N20. But in labora- tory scale CFB, the conversion of fuel-N to N20 is increases, but the conversion of fuel-N to NOx is quite less than that of single coal particle combustion. This is because much char in CFB can promote the NOx reduction by in- creasing N20 formation. In full scale CFB, both of the conversion of fuel-N to NOx and the conversion of fuel-N to N20 are smaller than laboratory scale CFB.展开更多

For GHAW It changed its confrontation scheme in real time according to the its process of countering malicious internet worms was modeled. The performance of GHAW on two factors was also estimated: confronting validity against worms and consumption of network resources. Factors governing its performance, specifically the transformation threshold and the transformation rate, were analyzed. The simulation experiments show that GHAW has dynamical adaptability to changes of network conditions and offers the same level of effectiveness on confronting internet worms as the divide-and-rule hybrid anti-worm, with significantly less cost to network resources. The experiments also indicate that the transformation threshold is the key factor affecting the performance of GHAW.展开更多

The results indicated that global BC could induce positive-phase AO responses, characterized by negative responses over the polar cap on 500 h Pa height fields, and zonal mean sea level pressure(SLP) decreasing while zonal wind increasing at 60°, with the opposite responses over midlatitudes. The AO indices distribution also shifted towards positive values. East Asian BC had similar impacts to that of global BC, while the responses to European BC were of opposite sign. South Asian BC and North American BC did not affect the AO significantly. Based on a simple linear assumption, we roughly estimated that the global BC emission increase could explain approximately 5% of the observed positive AO trend of +0.32 per decade during 1960 to 2000.展开更多

The model has been validated by comparison with existing theoretical and experimental cases. Its main goal is to have a better understanding on particles size distribution behaviour during operation of the fluidized bed, and in particular to be applied on the case of Fast Internally Circulating Fluidized Beds for char gasification. Results have shown that the initial properties of the fluidized bed particles (bed and size distribution) are almost not involved in the steady state obtained in continous operation, which is excusively dependent on the properties of the fed particles flow rate and size distribution, the withdrawal flow rate and the reaction properties. Morevoer, it has been proven that the steady state fluidized bed mass and size distribution may be theroretically controlled by an adequate choice of feeding and withdrawal flow rates.展开更多

The parameters were calibrated using experimental counterparts, and simulations were compared with published laboratory findings. The resulting normalized objective function (NOF) values are less than 1.0 (and in most cases less than 0.58) and the values for the slope y (between 0.656 7-1.127 4) and R2 (between 0.806 8-0.971) are close to 1.0 for most of the sub-figures. This indicates good agreement between simulated and measured data and suggests that the model reproduces the general characteristics of S. costatum growth and use of nutrients under different N- or P-limiting conditions. The model is appropriate for further applications and can be used to test more scenarios using other nutrients.展开更多

Developments have been made to improve this process because it is a cheaper way to obtain powder of uranium alloys compared to the other methods, such as atomization. This work presented an innovative comminution process of U-10Mo alloy in laboratory scale where a Sievert type equipment was utilized and only hydriding cycles were employed without repetition of the dehydriding procedure. Experiments of comminution of the U-10Mo alloy were carried out by employing alloy samples which were submitted to different heat treatment conditions and, subsequently, to different hydriding cycles. The heat treatments considered were hot rolled at 800 ℃, homogenization at 900 ℃ or 1,000 ℃ and aging at 520℃. It was observed that the number of hydriding cycles and heat treatment conditions have influenced the particle size distributions. Samples that were hot-rolled, homogenized at 1,000 ℃ and aged, and comminuted with five cycles of hydriding have produced powders with particle size distribution more uniform with the major quantity of particles in the range from 50μm to 200 μm while the other conditions have obtained a great quantity above 200 μm.展开更多

The CFB riser has a diameter of 90 mm and a height of 1,500 mm. The down-fired combustion chamber (DFCC) has a diameter of 260 mm and a height of 3,000 mm. Combustion experiments were carded out using pulverized anthracite with 6.74% volatile content. This low volatile coal is difficult to ignite and burn out. Therefore, it requires longer burnout time and higher combustion temperature, which results in larger NOx emis- sions. In the current study, important factors that influence the combustion characteristics and NOx emissions were investigated such as excess air ratio, air ratio in the reducing zone, and fuel residence time in the reducing zone. Pulverized anthracite can be quickly preheated up to 800~C in CFB when the primary air is 24% of theo- retical air for combustion, and the temperature profile is uniform in DFCC. The combustion efficiency is 94.2%, which is competitive with other anthracite combustion technologies. When the excess air ratio ranges from 1.26 to 1.67, the coal-N conversion ratio is less than 32% and the NOx emission concentration is less than 371 mg/m^3 (@6% O2). When the air ratio in the reducing zone is 0.12, the NOx concentration is 221 mg/m^3 (@6% O2), and the coal-N conversion ratio is 21%, which is much lower than that of other boilers.展开更多

Field tests of marine structures were conducted, and chloride concentration is found to reach a maximum value at a certain elevation. The surface concentration and diffusion coefficient of chloride ions at different elevations exhibit Gaussian unimodal curve distributions. Using the chloride ion unsaturated permeability model, the distribution regularity mechanism is analyzed. Finally, an improved indoor accelerated simulation experiment is proposed to simulate the rules governing chloride ion ingress into concrete structures in an alternate wetting-drying area.展开更多

This work presented an innovative comminution process of U-10Mo alloy in laboratory scale where a Sievert type equipment was utilized and only hydriding cycles were employed without repetition of the dehydriding procedure. Experiments of comminution of the U-10Mo alloy were carried out by employing alloy samples which were submitted to different heat treatment conditions and, subsequently, to different hydriding cycles. The heat treatments considered were hot rolled at 800 ℃, homogenization at 900 ℃ or 1,000 ℃ and aging at 520℃. It was observed that the number of hydriding cycles and heat treatment conditions have influenced the particle size distributions. Samples that were hot-rolled, homogenized at 1,000 ℃ and aged, and comminuted with five cycles of hydriding have produced powders with particle size distribution more uniform with the major quantity of particles in the range from 50μm to 200 μm while the other conditions have obtained a great quantity above 200 μm.

文摘A 30 kW bench-scale rig of pulverized anthracite combustion preheated by a circulating fluidized bed (CFB) was developed. The CFB riser has a diameter of 90 mm and a height of 1,500 mm. The down-fired combustion chamber (DFCC) has a diameter of 260 mm and a height of 3,000 mm. Combustion experiments were carded out using pulverized anthracite with 6.74% volatile content. This low volatile coal is difficult to ignite and burn out. Therefore, it requires longer burnout time and higher combustion temperature, which results in larger NOx emis- sions. In the current study, important factors that influence the combustion characteristics and NOx emissions were investigated such as excess air ratio, air ratio in the reducing zone, and fuel residence time in the reducing zone. Pulverized anthracite can be quickly preheated up to 800~C in CFB when the primary air is 24% of theo- retical air for combustion, and the temperature profile is uniform in DFCC. The combustion efficiency is 94.2%, which is competitive with other anthracite combustion technologies. When the excess air ratio ranges from 1.26 to 1.67, the coal-N conversion ratio is less than 32% and the NOx emission concentration is less than 371 mg/m^3 (@6% O2). When the air ratio in the reducing zone is 0.12, the NOx concentration is 221 mg/m^3 (@6% O2), and the coal-N conversion ratio is 21%, which is much lower than that of other boilers.

文摘Concrete structures in an alternate wetting-drying area often suffer from severe chloride ion ingress more than those in other areas. Field tests of marine structures were conducted, and chloride concentration is found to reach a maximum value at a certain elevation. The surface concentration and diffusion coefficient of chloride ions at different elevations exhibit Gaussian unimodal curve distributions. Using the chloride ion unsaturated permeability model, the distribution regularity mechanism is analyzed. Finally, an improved indoor accelerated simulation experiment is proposed to simulate the rules governing chloride ion ingress into concrete structures in an alternate wetting-drying area.
