In this work, a CI engine was simulated to work in HCCI mode and was analyzed to study the effect of induction induced swirl under varying speeds using three-zone extended coherent flame combustion model(ECFM-3Z, compression ignition) of STAR-CD. The analysis was done considering speed ranging from 800 to 1600 r/min and swirl ratios from 1 to 4. The present study reveals that ECFM-3Z model has well predicted the performance and emissions of CI engine in HCCI mode. The simulation predicts reduced in-cylinder pressures, temperatures, wall heat transfer losses, and piston work with increase in swirl ratio irrespective of engine speed. Also, simultaneous reduction in CO2 and NOx emissions is realized with higher engine speeds and swirl ratios. Low speeds and swirl ratios are favorable for low CO2 emissions. It is observed that increase in engine speed causes a marginal reduction in in-cylinder pressures and temperatures. Also, higher turbulent energy and velocity magnitude levels are obtained with increase in swirl ratio, indicating efficient combustion necessitating no modifications in combustion chamber design. The investigations reveal a total decrease of 38.68% in CO2 emissions and 12.93% in NOx emissions when the engine speed increases from 800 to 1600 r/min at swirl ratio of 4. Also an increase of 14.16% in net work done is obtained with engine speed increasing from 800 to 1600 r/min at swirl ratio of 1. The simulation indicates that there is a tradeoff observed between the emissions and piston work. It is finally concluded that the HCCI combustion can be regarded as low temperature combustion as there is significant decrease in in-cylinder temperatures and pressures at higher speeds and higher swirl ratios.展开更多

Methods： Forty rabbits were randomly assigned into four groups. 0.9% isotonic saline solution was perfused in the group I , while 1.0%, 4.0% and 10.0% potassium chloride solutions were perfused in the other groups, respectively, to induce hyperkalemia. Results： The changes of serum potassium, ECG and heart rate before perfusion were significantly （P〈 0.05） different from those after perfusion in the other groups compared with group I . The effect of ECG variability rates was well consistent （Kappa = 0.724, P〈0.01） with that of serum potassium on diagnostic tests in the other groups. The area under ROC curve in diagnosis effect of ECG variability rates and sermn potassium on hyperkalaemia was much significantly larger （P〈0.01 and P〈0.05） compared with 0.5. There was asignificantly positive correlation between ECG variability rates and serum potassium （r= 0.865, P〈0.05 for bilateral Pearson test）. There was certain positive correlation between heart rate and serum potassium, but the correlation was poor （r= 0.526, R2=0.277）. Conclusion： A combination of serum potassium, ECG variability rates and heart rate should be considered and analyzed by synthesis to establish an accurate and timely diagnosis for hyperkalemia.展开更多

Intense and cold cluster anions were prepared in photoelectron- attachment processes upon pulsed UV laser ablation of metal target. Combining this anion source with TOFMS-VMI, the achieved mass resolution is about 200, and the electron ki- netic energy resolution is better than 3%, i.e., 30 meV for 1 eV electrons. More importantly, low-energy photoelectron imaging spectra for CH3S- and S2- at 611.46 nm are obtained. In both cases, the refined electron affinities are determined to be 1.86264-0.0020 eV for CH3S and 1.67444-0.0035 eV for S2, respectively. Preliminary results suggest that the apparatus is a powerful tool for estimating precise electron affinities values from threshold photoelectron imaging spectroscopy.展开更多

The propagation characteristics of shock wave and gas flow were simulated by Fluent software, and the simulation results were verified by experiments. The results show that air shock wave is formed due to air medium compressed by the transient high pressure gas which rapidly expands in the roadway; the shock wave and gas flow with high velocity are formed behind the shock wave front, which significantly decays due to limiting effect of the roadway wall. The attenuation degree is greater in the early stage than that in the late stage, and the velocity of gas convection transport is lower than the speed of the shock wave.The greater the outburst intensity is, the greater the pressure of the shock wave front is, and the higher the speed of the shock wave and gas flow is.展开更多

When it is mounted und...Since neodymium magnet possesses an extremely strong magnetic field, resulting from the combination of neodymium, iron and boron, it has become the most used in designing autonomous sumo robots. When it is mounted under the structure of this robot, the magnet produces a large amount of normal force resulting from the interaction between its field lines and the steel frame of the arena, reducing the risk of slipping its wheels. Thus, the heavier a robot, the greater the difficulty for the opponent to remove it from the arena. This article explains the properties of Nd-Fe-Br magnets and analyzes the influence of these characteristics in the relation induction/weight. Additionally, to a comparative analysis, this research analyzes the positioning, geometry and polarization of the magnets under study, based on numerical results obtained using Inventor and K ＆ J Magnets Calculator software, given that these factors influence in their energetic product generation. Furthermore, more than just working with what we believe is a subject of great interest for sumo robot＇s teams, this study encourages their competitiveness, an essential factor for the competition.展开更多

When the laser intensity is below the ionization threshold, a coherent rotational wave-packet is formed for CO2 at room temperature through nonadiabatic rotational excitation. The evolution of the wave-packet leads to transient alignment. The field-free alignment revives periodically after the laser pulse is over. The revival structure can be modified by a second laser pulse for the rotational wave-packet through precisely adjusting the time delays between the two laser pulses. When the laser intensity excesses the ionization threshold, ionization and Coulomb explosion occur. The atomic ions C^m＋ （re=1-3） and On＋ （n=1-3） observed in the experiment exhibit highly anisotropic angular distributions relative to the laser polarization. Using two linearly polarized laser pulses with crossed polarization, we conclude that the anisotropic angular distribution results from dynamic alignment, in which the rising edge of the laser pulse aligns the neutral CO2 along the laser polarization direction prior to ionization.展开更多

The non-Gaussian LEvy noise is a kind of general random noise which is different from the usual Gaussian noise, and it has small fluctuations with the unpredictable jumps to describe the random fluctuations in an FHN model. SR is determined by the signal-to-noise ratio （SNR）, and the numerical simulation results show the occurrence of the SR phenomena in the given FHN system. The influence of various parameters of the LEvy noise and the FHN model on the SR will be exam- ined, and some mechanisms of the LEvy noise-induced SR are presented which are different from those of the Gaussian noise.展开更多

The velocity of the bubble wall, the liquid jet velocity at collapse, and the pressure of the water hammer while the liquid jet impacting onto the boundary are found to increase nonlinearly with increasing ambient pressure. The collapse time and the formation time of the liquid jet are found to decrease nonlinearly with increasing ambient pressure. The ratios of the jet formation time to the collapse time, and the displacement of the bubble center to the maximal radius while the jet formation stay invariant when ambient pressure changes. These ratios are independent of ambient pressure.展开更多

In this study, a 3D Monte Carlo simulation combined with a Mie equation was developed to analyze the influence of spectral absorption and scattering on the measured LII flux emitted by soot particles. This paper represents a first attempt to analyze soot measurement using the LII technique in coal combustion products. The combustion products of gases (CO2, N2), soot, and fly-ash particles, present between the location of laser-excited soot and the LII flux receiver. The simulation results indicated that an almost Beer-Lambert exponential decrease in LII flux occurred with an increase in the volume fraction of soot particles, while a nearly linear decrease occurred with an increase in the volume fraction of fly-ash particles. The results also showed that scattering effects of both soot and fly-ash particles on the LII flux could be neglected. Compared with the absorption of gases, a decrease of 20% of LII flux was observed with soot particles, and a decrease of 10% with fly-ash particles.展开更多

Darkness substantially raised S 1P and hydrogen peroxide （H202） levels and closed stomata. These darkness effects were significantly suppressed by DL-threo-dihydrosphingosine （DL-threo-DHS） and N,N-dimethylsphingosine （DMS）, two inhibi- tors of long-chain base kinases. Exogenous SIP led to stomatal closure and H202 production, and the effects of SIP were largely prevented by the H202 modulators ascorbic acid, catalase, and diphenyleneiodonium. These results indicated that SIP mediated darkness-induced stomatal closure by triggering H202 production. In addition, DL-threo-DHS and DMS significantly suppressed both darkness-induced cytosolic alkalization in guard cells and stomatal closure. Exogenous SIP caused cytosolic alkalization and stomatal closure, which could be largely abolished by butyric acid. These results demonstrated that SIP syn-thesis was necessary for cytosolic alkalization during stomatal closure caused by darkness. Furthermore, together with the data described above, inhibition of darkness-induced H202 production by butyric acid revealed that S 1P synthesis-induced cytosolic alkalization was a prerequisite for H202 production during stomatal closure caused by darkness, a conclusion supported by the facts that the pH increase caused by exogenous SIP had a shorter lag and peaked faster than H202 levels and that butyric acid prevented exogenous SIP-induced H202 production. Altogether, our data suggested that darkness induced SIP synthesis, causing cytosolic alkalization and subsequent H202 production, finally leading to stomatal closure.展开更多

In this study, the change of free surface vor- tex and air absorption in a pump intake has been investigated by the Volume of Fraction （VOF） method with steady multiphase flow model in order to represent the behavior of the free surface vortex exactly. The homoge- neous free surface model is used to apply interactions of air and water. The results show that air intake by the free surface vortex motion can be visualized using the iso-surface of air volume fraction. The vortices make an air column from the free surface to the pump intake. Also, it was found that the flee surface vortex can be controlled by installing curtain walls.展开更多

It is known that the parametric and external excitation may induce additional saddle states, and result in chaos in the phase space, which cannot be detected by applying the Melnikov method directly. A feasible solution for this problem is the combination of the averaged equations and Melnikov method. Therefore, we consider the averaged equations of the system subject to Duffing-Van der Pol strong nonlinearity by introducing the undetermined fundamental frequency. Then the bifurcation values of homoclinic structure formation are detected through the combined application of the new averaged equations with Melnikov integration. Finally, the explicit application shows the analytical conditions coincide with the results of numerical simulation even disturbing parameter is of arbitrary magnitude.展开更多

文摘Dynamic processes of CO2 are experimentally studied in intense femtosecond laser fields with laser intensity varying from 1×10^13 W/cm^2 to 6×10^14 W/cm^2. When the laser intensity is below the ionization threshold, a coherent rotational wave-packet is formed for CO2 at room temperature through nonadiabatic rotational excitation. The evolution of the wave-packet leads to transient alignment. The field-free alignment revives periodically after the laser pulse is over. The revival structure can be modified by a second laser pulse for the rotational wave-packet through precisely adjusting the time delays between the two laser pulses. When the laser intensity excesses the ionization threshold, ionization and Coulomb explosion occur. The atomic ions C^m＋ （re=1-3） and On＋ （n=1-3） observed in the experiment exhibit highly anisotropic angular distributions relative to the laser polarization. Using two linearly polarized laser pulses with crossed polarization, we conclude that the anisotropic angular distribution results from dynamic alignment, in which the rising edge of the laser pulse aligns the neutral CO2 along the laser polarization direction prior to ionization.

文摘The role and signaling of sphingosine-l-phosphate （SIP） during darkness-induced stomatal closure were examined in Vicia faba. Darkness substantially raised S 1P and hydrogen peroxide （H202） levels and closed stomata. These darkness effects were significantly suppressed by DL-threo-dihydrosphingosine （DL-threo-DHS） and N,N-dimethylsphingosine （DMS）, two inhibi- tors of long-chain base kinases. Exogenous SIP led to stomatal closure and H202 production, and the effects of SIP were largely prevented by the H202 modulators ascorbic acid, catalase, and diphenyleneiodonium. These results indicated that SIP mediated darkness-induced stomatal closure by triggering H202 production. In addition, DL-threo-DHS and DMS significantly suppressed both darkness-induced cytosolic alkalization in guard cells and stomatal closure. Exogenous SIP caused cytosolic alkalization and stomatal closure, which could be largely abolished by butyric acid. These results demonstrated that SIP syn-thesis was necessary for cytosolic alkalization during stomatal closure caused by darkness. Furthermore, together with the data described above, inhibition of darkness-induced H202 production by butyric acid revealed that S 1P synthesis-induced cytosolic alkalization was a prerequisite for H202 production during stomatal closure caused by darkness, a conclusion supported by the facts that the pH increase caused by exogenous SIP had a shorter lag and peaked faster than H202 levels and that butyric acid prevented exogenous SIP-induced H202 production. Altogether, our data suggested that darkness induced SIP synthesis, causing cytosolic alkalization and subsequent H202 production, finally leading to stomatal closure.
