This study proposed an experimental method to try to understand the thermal response to heat of four different systems： a prototype called control （no vegetation） and three with different combinations of vegetation （green roofs and green facades） installed in a tropical climate region. The experiments were developed in four test cells with dimensions 2.0 m × 2.50 m× 2.71 m. Measurements of internal surface temperatures and internal air temperatures were collected with the use of specific equipment, a data logger （CR1000, Campbell Scientific Inc.）, connected with two multiplexers 32 channels （416AM Campbell Scientific Inc.）. Data were recorded over a year and a critical day heat was selected, which was September 24, 2015.The results show that the use of plant systems in buildings establishes a passive technique in reducing energy consumption because of the high incidence of summer solar radiation which is reduced and simultaneously, it maintains thermal internal conditions more pleasant than external ones, because of the best thermal behaviour, which was observed in the test cell with vegetation on both roofs and facades. The biggest difference between maximum internal air temperatures registered was 2 ℃.展开更多

S E(G) is called an edge cover of G ifevery vertex of G is an end vertex of some edges in S. The edge covering chromatic numberof a graph G, denoted by Xc(G) is the maximum size of a partition of E(G) into edgecovers of G. It is known that for any graph G with minimum degree δ,δ- 1 The fractional edge covering chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by Xcf(G), is thefractional matching number of the edge covering hypergraph H of G whose vertices arethe edges of G and whose hyperedges the edge covers of G. In this paper, we studythe relation between X’c(G) and δ for any graph G, and give a new simple proof of theinequalities δ - 1 ≤ X’c(G) ≤ δ by the technique of graph coloring. For any graph G, wegive an exact formula of X’cf(G), that is,where A(G)=minand the minimum is taken over all noempty subsets S of V(G) and C[S] is the set of edgesthat have at least one end in S.展开更多

The test blade was placed in the second stage, where 18 blades were installed with chord length of 124.3 mm and height of 99 mm. A film hole with diameter of 4 mm, angled 28° to the tangential of the pressure surface in streamwise, was set in the middle span of the blade. The Reynolds number based on the outlet mainstream velocity and the blade chord length of the second stage varied from 1.52×105 to 2.00×105. All measurements were made with the blowing ratio varying from 0.3 to 3.0. Air and CO2 worked as coolant to achieve the coolant-to-mainstream density ratio of 1.03 and 1.57. The results show that the film coverage and cooling effectiveness scale up with the blowing ratio. Higher density ratio can generate larger film cooling coverage and effectiveness. The higher the Reynolds number, the larger the film coverage and cooling effectiveness.展开更多
