The results and mechanism of axial flux electromagnetic induction (AF-EMI) are applied to a low temperature Stirling engine, resulting in a TEG-Stirling engine. The method of TMD produced thermodynamically consistent and time-dependent physical quantities for the first time, such as internal energy ℰ(t), thermodynamic work Wth(t), the total entropy (heat dissipation) Qd(t)and measure or temperature of a nonequilibrium state T˜(t). The TMD analysis produced a lightweight mechanical system of TEG-Stirling engine which derives electric power from waste heat of temperature (40˚CT100˚C) by a thermoelectric conversion method. An optimal low rotational speed about 30θ′(t)/(2π)60(rpm) is found, applicable to devices for sustainable, clean energy technologies. The stability of a thermal state and angular rotations of TEG-Stirling engine are specifically shown by employing properties of nonequilibrium temperature T˜(t), which is also applied to study optimal fuel-injection and combustion timings of heat engines.展开更多

The ...Based on the mechanism of the effect of hydration on the heat stability of lysozyme and the theory of water molecule clusters, the effect of structure-changed water on heat stability of lysozyme has been studied. The results obtained by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that the thermal denaturation temperature of lysozyme had been elevated 8.47 K through hydration of lysozyme with processed water whose structure had been changed so it was called "structured water" compared to ordinary water. The reason is that structured water changed the dipole moment of water molecules and easily formed cyclic water hexamer or cage-like water hexamer, so that the interacting force of maintaining three-dimensional conformation of lysozyme could be reinforced.展开更多

They were put into PVC plastic products together with antimony tris (2 ethylhexyl thioglycolate) (Sb(2EHTG) 3) under the suitable compounding, and their heat stability to PVC was studied. It is shown that these barium mercaptides have remarkable synergisms with antimony mercaptides and the long term stabilizing effect of organoantimony stabilizer can be effectively improved, reducing the amount of antimony compounds so as to avoid the decrease of its stabilizing effect.展开更多

The bacterial liquid was rinsed with PBS, centrifuged, and filtered through microporous filtering film to collect extracellular products (ECPs).[Results] Extracellular proteinase (ECPase) of S. iniae exhibited amylase, protease, lecitinase, gelatinase, lipase activities and hemolytic activity but had no urease activity. EDTA, DTT and PMSF could reduce ECPase activity to 72.4%, 77.6% and 72.4%, respectively. Cu^2+ , Ca 2+ , K^+ and Mg^2+ exhibited an inhibitory effect on ECPase activity, whereas Fe^3+ , Co^2+ and Mn^2+ could activate ECPase activity. ECPs had good heat stability and exhibited relatively high activities under alkaline conditions. The optimal temperature for ECPs was 55 ℃. Two-dimensional electrophoresis was performed to analyze the main protein of ECPs. The results indicated that there are 12 main bands of ECPs, and the molecular weights mainly ranged between 28-68 kDa. About 120 protein spots were detected, and the molecular weights mainly ranged between 26-95 kDa. The mouse anti- S. iniae was used for Western-blot analysis of ECPs, and the results showed that there were four proteins, with molecular weights of 26, 37, 95, and 97 kDa, respectively. The pathogenicity assay indicated that ECPs of S. iniae were highly pathogenic to tilapia. The mortality rate of tilapia was enhanced as the concentration of ECPs increased.[Conclusions] This study provided a certain theoretical basis for revealing the pathogenic mechanism of Streptococcus iniae .展开更多

Influences of major factors, including magnetic field intensity, superficial gas and liquid velocities, liquid viscosity and surface tension, on heat-transfer properties were studied experimentally, indicating that both co- and counter-current G-L-S MSFB can provide relatively uniform radial distribution of heat transfer coefficients under appropriate operation conditions, thus controlling operation temperature for highly exothermic multi-phase reaction systems. Two correlations were provided to estimate accurately heat transfer properties in both co- and counter-current G-L-S MSFB systems, with an average error of less than 10%.展开更多

文摘A thermoelectric generation Stirling engine (TEG-Stirling engine) is discussed by employing a low temperature Stirling engine and the dissipative equation of motion derived from the method of thermomechanical dynamics (TMD). The results and mechanism of axial flux electromagnetic induction (AF-EMI) are applied to a low temperature Stirling engine, resulting in a TEG-Stirling engine. The method of TMD produced thermodynamically consistent and time-dependent physical quantities for the first time, such as internal energy ℰ(t), thermodynamic work Wth(t), the total entropy (heat dissipation) Qd(t)and measure or temperature of a nonequilibrium state T˜(t). The TMD analysis produced a lightweight mechanical system of TEG-Stirling engine which derives electric power from waste heat of temperature (40˚CT100˚C) by a thermoelectric conversion method. An optimal low rotational speed about 30θ′(t)/(2π)60(rpm) is found, applicable to devices for sustainable, clean energy technologies. The stability of a thermal state and angular rotations of TEG-Stirling engine are specifically shown by employing properties of nonequilibrium temperature T˜(t), which is also applied to study optimal fuel-injection and combustion timings of heat engines.
文摘Based on the mechanism of the effect of hydration on the heat stability of lysozyme and the theory of water molecule clusters, the effect of structure-changed water on heat stability of lysozyme has been studied. The results obtained by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed that the thermal denaturation temperature of lysozyme had been elevated 8.47 K through hydration of lysozyme with processed water whose structure had been changed so it was called "structured water" compared to ordinary water. The reason is that structured water changed the dipole moment of water molecules and easily formed cyclic water hexamer or cage-like water hexamer, so that the interacting force of maintaining three-dimensional conformation of lysozyme could be reinforced.

They were put into PVC plastic products together with antimony tris (2 ethylhexyl thioglycolate) (Sb(2EHTG) 3) under the suitable compounding, and their heat stability to PVC was studied. It is shown that these barium mercaptides have remarkable synergisms with antimony mercaptides and the long term stabilizing effect of organoantimony stabilizer can be effectively improved, reducing the amount of antimony compounds so as to avoid the decrease of its stabilizing effect.

文摘[Objectives] This study aimed to analyze the biological activity and immunogenicity of extracellular products from Streptococcus iniae .[Methods] S. iniae was incubated with brain heart infusion agar medium (BHIA + 4% calf serum) for 60 h. The bacterial liquid was rinsed with PBS, centrifuged, and filtered through microporous filtering film to collect extracellular products (ECPs).[Results] Extracellular proteinase (ECPase) of S. iniae exhibited amylase, protease, lecitinase, gelatinase, lipase activities and hemolytic activity but had no urease activity. EDTA, DTT and PMSF could reduce ECPase activity to 72.4%, 77.6% and 72.4%, respectively. Cu^2+ , Ca 2+ , K^+ and Mg^2+ exhibited an inhibitory effect on ECPase activity, whereas Fe^3+ , Co^2+ and Mn^2+ could activate ECPase activity. ECPs had good heat stability and exhibited relatively high activities under alkaline conditions. The optimal temperature for ECPs was 55 ℃. Two-dimensional electrophoresis was performed to analyze the main protein of ECPs. The results indicated that there are 12 main bands of ECPs, and the molecular weights mainly ranged between 28-68 kDa. About 120 protein spots were detected, and the molecular weights mainly ranged between 26-95 kDa. The mouse anti- S. iniae was used for Western-blot analysis of ECPs, and the results showed that there were four proteins, with molecular weights of 26, 37, 95, and 97 kDa, respectively. The pathogenicity assay indicated that ECPs of S. iniae were highly pathogenic to tilapia. The mortality rate of tilapia was enhanced as the concentration of ECPs increased.[Conclusions] This study provided a certain theoretical basis for revealing the pathogenic mechanism of Streptococcus iniae .

文摘Heat transfer coefficients were measured by immersed probes in co- and counter-current G-L-S magnetically stabilized fluidized beds (MSFBs) using air, water and nickel-alloy particles as the gas, liquid and solid phases. Influences of major factors, including magnetic field intensity, superficial gas and liquid velocities, liquid viscosity and surface tension, on heat-transfer properties were studied experimentally, indicating that both co- and counter-current G-L-S MSFB can provide relatively uniform radial distribution of heat transfer coefficients under appropriate operation conditions, thus controlling operation temperature for highly exothermic multi-phase reaction systems. Two correlations were provided to estimate accurately heat transfer properties in both co- and counter-current G-L-S MSFB systems, with an average error of less than 10%.

文摘This study investigates the steady stagnation point flow and heat transfer passes a horizontal shrinking permeable cylinder.The free stream velocity and the prescribed surface heat flux arc assumed to vary linearly with the distance from a fixed point on the cylinder.The partial differential equations governing the flow and heat transfer are transformed into a system of ordinary differential equations via similarity transformation.These equations are solved numerically for several values of the governing parameters,such as suction parameter s,curvature parameter γ,and shrinking parameter λ.The equations arc solved numerically by employing the boundary value problem solver package available in MATLAB software,bvp4c.The effects of the governing parameters on the skin friction coefficient,surface temperature,velocity,and temperature profiles are examined.Given the existence of dual solutions in the present study for a certain range of the curvature parameter,stability analysis is carried out to determine which one of the solutions is stable as time passes.The outcome of the stability analysis demonstrates that only the first solution,with lower boundary layer thickness,appeared to be stable and thus physically reliable,while the other is not.It is also discovered that the boundary layer separation is delayed by reducing the curvature parameter.

文摘TiB_(2)/Al2O3 ceramics reinforced with Mg O are prepared by spark plasma sintering(SPS).The dielectric and microwave(MW)absorption properties are discussed.The results indicate that both the commercial TiB_(2)(C-TiB_(2))content and preparing temperature play important roles in the dielectric properties.Simultaneously,TiB_(2)/Al2O3 composite shows the best MW absorption property when the C-TiB_(2)content and preparing temperature are 9 wt%and 1400°C.To further improve the MW absorption properties,the composite containing 9 wt%synthesized TiB_(2)(S-TiB_(2))has been sintered at 1400°C.Its high-temperature complex permittivity is greater than that of TiB_(2)/Al2O3 composite with 9 wt%C-TiB_(2)sintered at 1400°C and is directly proportional to the temperature.Besides,TiB_(2)/Al2O3 composite with 9 wt%S-TiB_(2)possesses a better MW absorption at 25–500°C,its effective absorption bandwidth(RL<-5 dB)can reach 4.2 GHz at 25–500°C.And the minimum reflection loss(RLmin)value reaches-43.41 dB at the temperature of 800°C with a thickness of 1.45 mm for TiB_(2)/Al2O3 composite with 9 wt%C-TiB_(2).Consequently,the satisfying absorbing layer(d<1.75 mm),flexural strength,heat stability and considerable high-temperature MW absorption ability grant TiB_(2)/Al2O3 ceramics practical applications as high-temperature microwave absorption materials(MAMs).

文摘To improve thermal stability of the Al65Cu16.5Ti18.5 amorphous powder,structural modification of the amorphous powder was performed through annealing and post milling.Annealing above the crystallization temperature(Tx) not only induced nanoscale intermetallics to precipitate in the amorphous powder,but also increased Cu atomic percentage within the residual amorphous phase.Post milling induced the amorphization of the nanocrystal intermetallics and the formation of Cu9Al4 from the residual amorphous phase.Thus,a mixed structure consisting of amorphous phase and Cu9Al4 was obtained in the powder after annealing and post milling(the APMed powder).The phase constituent in the APMed powder did not change during the post annealing,which exhibited significantly improved thermal stability in comparison with the as-milled amorphous powder.

文摘In the present work,Zn-10 Al-2 Cu-0.05 Ti(ZA10)alloy tubes with a diameter of 12.5 mm and wall thickness of 1.2 mm were fabricated by one-pass and double-pass Conform continuous extrusion.A stabilizing heat treatment[350℃,30 min(furnace cooling)+120℃,12 h(air cooling)]was also applied to some of the double-pass tubes to improve the quality of their weld seams.The yield strength,ultimate tensile strength,elongation and expansion ratio of the one-pass continuous extrusion tube were 268.4 MPa,294.3 MPa,13.8%and 5.5%,respectively.Double-pass continuous extrusion improved these values to 278.4 MPa,317.2 MPa,15.4%and 11.4%,respectively.Double-pass tubes also had fewer aggregations of Al-αprecipitates along the welding seam,which improved seam quality and caused cracks to appear in the matrix,away from the weld-affected zone,during expansion testing.Heat-treated double-pass tubes exhibited superior yield strength(283.9 MPa)and ultimate tensile strength(328.5 MPa)but lower elongation(10.2%)and expansion ratios(10.3%).Additionally,the heat-treated tubes exhibited markedly lower elongation at room temperature due to the remarkable blockage of dislocation motions by fine-scale lamellar(α+η)eutectoid structures and a lower size effect when stretched.
