However, Haier Group has broken the ice since it entered the IEC/PACT commission in June 2005, lifting the curtain on international standardization of our national enterprises. And now, Haier is hosting the IEC/PACT annual conference in November 2007. Could you introduce it in detail?展开更多

Original work describes, an adaptation of Newton-Raphson method was used for solving the highly nonlinear system of equations describing the formation of equilibrium products in reacting of fuel-additive-air mixtures. This study also shows what possible of the results. In this paper, to be present the efficient numerical algorithms for. solving the combustion problem, to be used nonlinear equations based on the iteration method and high order of the Taylor series. The modified Adomian decomposition method was applied to construct the numerical algorithms. Some numerical illustrations are given to show the efficiency of algorithms. Comparisons of results by the new Matlab routines and previous routines, the result data indicate that the new Matlab routines are reliable, typical deviations from previous results are less than 0.05%.展开更多
