In order to take tank parameters (agitation speed, position of directional flow baffle and coordinate position in quench zone) into account, an approach that combines the artificial neural network (ANN) with CFD method was developed to study the flow distribution in the quenching tank. The flow rate of the quenching medium shows a very good agreement between the ANN predicted results and the Fluent simulated data. Methods for the optimal design of the quenching tank can be used as technical support for industrial production.
文摘The mechanism of nitrocompounds quenching of the fluorescence of 5, 5′ dipheny1 2, 2′ bisoxazole (POOP) and trans 1, 2 bis [2 (5 phenyloxazolyl)] ethene (POEOP) has been studied. It was found that the fluorescence of oxazoles was quenched mainly by the absorption competition and radiationless energy transfer of nitrocompounds. The fluorescence quenching rate constants of nitrobenzene and nitromethane are 3.0×10 10 L·mol -1 ·s -1 and 1.5×10 8 L·mol -1 ·s -1 respectively for POEOP. This remarkable difference was explicated.

文摘The carburizing process of the gear ring was simulated by taking into account the practical carburizing and quenching techniques of the gear ring and by solving the diffusion equation. The carbon content distribution in the carburized layer was obtained. Based on the results, the quenching process of the gear ring was then simulated using the metallic thermodynamics and FEM: it was found that the carburization remarkably affects the quenching process. Microstructures and stress distributions of the gear ring in the quenching process were simulated, and the results are confirmed by experiments.

文摘Quorum sensing(QS)is a regulatory system that regulates the behavior of microbial populations by sensing the concentration of signal molecules that are spontaneously produced and released by bacteria.The strategy of blocking the QS system and inhibiting the production of virulence factors is termed as quorum quenching(QQ).This strategy attenuates virulence without killing the pathogens,thereby weakening the selective pressure on pathogens and postponing the evolution of QQ-mediated drug resistance.In recent years,there have been significant theoretical and practical developments in the field of QS and QQ.In particular,with the development and utilization of marine resources,more and more marine microbial species have been found to be regulated by these two mechanisms,further promoting the research progress of QS and QQ.In this review,we described the diversity of QS signals and QS-related regulatory systems,and then introduced mechanisms related to QS interference,with particular emphasis on the description of natural QQ enzymes and chemicals acting as QS inhibitors.Finally,the exploitation of quorum sensing quenchers and the practical application of QQ were introduced,while some QQ strategies were proposed as promising tools in different fields such as medicine,aquaculture,agriculture and biological pollution prevention areas.
