This is not generally observed in nature. To overcome this limitation, a perfect shape factor CSP is proposed in which the compressibility factors of 'a' and 'o' fluids are corresponded perfectly by introducing a new pressure shape factor 8. Using methane as the 'o' fluid, the shape factors of many fluids are calculated from PVT properties at saturation state and the second virial coefficients. Models are also formulated for the shape factors with the assumption of is a function of temperature and volume while 6 and 5 are temperature dependent only. The models described the shape factors satisfactorily in whole region including vapor, liquid and their co-existing phases. The perfect shape factor CSP could be applied for both polar and non-polar fluids.展开更多

This behaves like an all-optical diode and has promising applications in some areas such as optical isolation and all-optical processing.The ways to obtain low threshold of pulse field strength to realize an all-optical diode are also analyzed in detail.展开更多

The results show that the shock can develop from the ion acoustic wave or ion cyclotron wave in the polar region, and can exist when the Mach number M and the initial electric field E-0 satisfy the condition of vertical bar(a/M-2-1)E(0)vertical bar = 1. Also, some features of the shock wave are discussed. The result can interpret the electrostatic shock observed in the earth's polar region.展开更多

From the SOA carder density equations, the 1310 nm-to-1550 nm wavelength conversion scheme is analyzed by the Jones matrix. The phase shift between TE and TM modes and the converted light are simulated at bit rate of 30 Gbit/s. We also analyze the influence of the input signal power, the injected current and the assistant light power on the extinction ratio of the converted li~,ht.展开更多
