The mathematical simulation of the slurry bubble column reactor for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis was carried out under the following typical industrial operating conditions: temperature 230 ℃, pressure 3.0 MPa, gas flow 5x 105 m3/h, catalyst content in slurry phase 30%, reactor diameter 5.0 m and the composition of feed gas: y(H2)=0.60, y(CO)=0.30, y(N2)=0.10. The influences of operating pressure, temperature and re(HE)Ira(CO) in feed gas on the reactor's reaction performance were simulated.展开更多

The parameters were estimated by the Universal Global Optimization using the Marquardt method. Residual error distribution and statistic tests show thatthe intrinsic kinetic models are reliable and acceptable. The mathematic model of a combined converter formed by gas-cooled and water-cooled reactor was developed and thegas-cooled reactor and the water-cooled reactor were characterized with one-dimensionalmathematic model. The distributions of temperature and concentration in the catalytic bedof the gas-cooled reactor and the water-cooled reactor in a combined converter with ayield of 1.2 Mt/a were simulated. The parallel cross linking pore model was used to describe the transfer process of multi-component diffusion system in the catalyst. The calculated value computed by the internal diffusion efficiency factor calculation model established for methanol synthesis catalyst fit the experimental value very well.展开更多

We propose a novel pattern design technique combining fractal geometry and image texture synthesis to solve these problems. We have improved Wei and Levoy (2000)’s texture synthesis algorithm by first using two-dimensional autocorrelation function to analyze the structure and distribution of textures, and then determining the size of L neighborhood. Several special fractal sets were adopted and HSL (Hue, Saturation, and Light) color space was chosen. The fractal structure was used to manipulate the texture synthesis in HSL color space where the pattern’s color can be adjusted conveniently. Experiments showed that patterns with different styles and different color characteristics can be more efficiently generated using the new technique.展开更多

In this paper, an information fusion based scheme is presented to obtain 3-D information of human head. Structured light technology is employed to measure depth. For the special reflection areas,in which the structured light stripe can not be detected directly, the shape of the structured light stripe can be calculated from the corresponding contour. By fusing the information of structured light and the contours, the problem of reflectance influence is solved, and the whole shape of head,including hair area, can be obtained. Some good results are obtained.展开更多

Mechanisms of morphogen transport were built and investigated by numerical simulations in [A. D. Lander, Q. Nie and F. Y. M. Wan, Do morphogen gradients arise by diffusion? Developmental Cell 2 (2002) 785-796]. In that paper, model C, which considers endocytosis, exocytosis and receptor synthesis and degradation, is in a one-dimensional spatial region and couples a partial differential equation with ordinary differential equations. Here, this model is promoted to an arbitrary dimension bounded region. We prove existence, uniqueness and non-negativity of a global solution for this advanced model, of its steady-state solution and linear stability of steady state by operator semigroup, the Schauder theorem and local perturbation method. Our results improve previous results for this model in a one dimension region.展开更多
