The Numerical Simulation of the Flow Field in a Cold Model of Five-stage Cyclone Preheater and Precalciner System

The flow field in a cold model of 2500 t/d five-stage cyclone preheater and precalciner system was numerically simulated. Renault stress model (RSM) turbulent model was adopted to simulate the flow field, and a hybrid mesh scheme was selected to generate calculation mesh. With the first order upwind difference, finite-volume method was used to convert turbulent equations into difference equations pressure-velocity coupling which were solved by the classic simple algorithm, and during the course of numerical solution, mesh self-adapting technology was applied. The main flow field structures of the whole system and each part of the cold model were studied by analyzing the simulation results.

Five-Stage Model of the Palaeozoic Crustal Evolution in Xinjiang

Abstract: The great majority of the Palaeozoic orogenic belts of Central Asia are of the intercontinental type, whose evolution always follows a five-stage model, i.e. the basal continental crust-extensional transitional crust-oceanic crust-convergent transitional crust-new continental crust model. The stage for the extensional transitional crust is a pretty long, independent and inevitable phase. The dismembering mechanism of the basal continental crust becoming an extensional continental crust is delineated by the simple shear model put forward by Wernike (1981). The continental margins on the sides of a gently dipping detachment zone and moving along it are asymmetric: one side is of the nonmagmatic type and the other of the magmatic type with a typical bimodal volcanic formation. In the latter case, however, they were often confused with island arcs. This paper discusses the five-stage process of the crustal evolution of some typical orogenic belts in Xinjiang.

Studies on the Developmental Genetics of Tiller Number in Three-line Indica Hybrid Rice

Following NCI design, the developmental genetic behavior of tiller number (TN) in three-line indica hybrid rice was studied using additive-dominance developmental genetic models and the corresponding statistical methods. The results showed that dominance effects were predominant for TN. The expression of those additive effects were affected by environment and genotype interaction, but the expression of dominance effects were not affected. Heterosis was the strongest in the middle developmental periods of TN. Additive effects and dominance effects were selectively expressed throughout in the entire tillering developmental stage. Analysis of genetic correlation between TN at different stages and the productive panicles indicated that a close correlation appeared earlier in the populations with higher heterosis than in those with less heterosis. Utilization of heterosis at the middle tillering stage might enhance the final biomass but reduce the percentage of productive panicles.

Vision-based Localization from Three-Line Structures (TLS)

This paper presents a novel vision based localization algorithm from three-line structure ( TLS) .Two types of TLS are investigated: 1) three parallel lines ( Structure I) ; 2) two parallel lines and one orthogonal line ( Structure II) .From single image of either structure,the camera pose can be uniquely computed for vision localization.Contributions of this paper are as follows: 1 ) both TLS structures can be used as simple and practical landmarks,which are widely available in daily life; 2) the proposed algorithm complements existing localization methods,which usually use complex landmarks,especially in the partial blockage conditions; 3) compared with the general Perspective-3-Lines ( P3L) problem,camera pose can be uniquely computed from either structure.The proposed algorithm has been tested with both simulation and real image data.For a typical simulated indoor condition ( 75 cm-size landmark,less than 7.0 m landmark-to-camera distance,and 0.5-pixel image noises) ,the means of localization errors from Structure I and Structure II are less than 3.0 cm.And the standard deviations are less than 3.0 cm and 1.5 cm,respectively.The algorithm is further validated with two actual image experiments.Within a 7.5 m × 7.5 m indoor situation,the overall relative localization errors from Structure I and Structure II are less than 2.2% and 2.3% ,respectively,with about 6.0 m distance.The results demonstrate that the algorithm works well for practical vision localization.

Image Motion Compensation of Off-Axis TMA Three-Line ArrayAerospace Mapping Cameras

To enhance the image motion compensation accuracy of off-axis three-mirror anastigmatic( TMA)three-line array aerospace mapping cameras,a new method of image motion velocity field modeling is proposed in this paper. Firstly,based on the imaging principle of mapping cameras,an analytical expression of image motion velocity of off-axis TMA three-line array aerospace mapping cameras is deduced from different coordinate systems we established and the attitude dynamics principle. Then,the case of a three-line array mapping camera is studied,in which the simulation of the focal plane image motion velocity fields of the forward-view camera,the nadir-view camera and the backward-view camera are carried out,and the optimization schemes for image motion velocity matching and drift angle matching are formulated according the simulation results. Finally,this method is verified with a dynamic imaging experimental system. The results are indicative of that when image motion compensation for nadir-view camera is conducted using the proposed image motion velocity field model,the line pair of target images at Nyquist frequency is clear and distinguishable. Under the constraint that modulation transfer function( MTF) reduces by 5%,when the horizontal frequencies of the forward-view camera and the backward-view camera are adjusted uniformly according to the proposed image motion velocity matching scheme,the time delay integration( TDI) stages reach 6 at most. When the TDI stages are more than 6,the three groups of camera will independently undergo horizontal frequency adjustment. However, when the proposed drift angle matching scheme is adopted for uniform drift angle adjustment,the number of TDI stages will not exceed 81. The experimental results have demonstrated the validity and accuracy of the proposed image motion velocity field model and matching optimization scheme,providing reliable basis for on-orbit image motion compensation of aerospace mapping cameras.

Compact input-reflectionless balanced bandpass filter with flexible bandwidth using three-line coupled structure

A compact input-reflectionless balanced bandpass filter(BPF)with flexible bandwidth(BW)using a three-line coupled structure(TLCS)is presented in this paper.For the differential mode(DM),the TLCS is applied to achieve the bandpass response;meanwhile,the input coupled-feed line of the TLCS is reused in the input absorption network.This design shows a good fusion of the absorptive and BPF sections,effectively reducing the circuit size,and the BWs of the two sections that can be controlled separately result in a flexibly controllable DM response BW of the proposed input-reflectionless balanced BPF.Detailed analyses of the ratio of the two-part BWs have been given for the first time,which is vital for the passband flatness and reflectionless feature.In the codesign of this work,the input-reflectionless DM bandpass response can be optimized easily,while wideband common mode(CM)noise absorption is achieved by the input absorption network.To verify the design method,a prototype with a compact layout(0.52λ×0.36λ)is designed and measured in the 0-7.0 GHz range.The DM center frequency(f0)is 2.45 GHz with a measured 3 dB fractional bandwidth of 31.4%.The simulation and measurement results with good agreement are presented,showing good performance,e.g.,low insertion loss(0.43 dB),wide upper stopband for the DM bandpass response(over 20 dB rejection level up to 2.72f0),and wideband DM reflectionless and CM noise absorption(fractional absorption bandwidth of 285.7%).

Status and Prospects of Hybrid Rice Breeding in Jiangsu, China

Research on hybrid rice in Jiangsu Province, China began in 1970. Great progress has been made since then, which can be divided into three stages according to the development of hybrid rice breeding and production in Jiangsu Province. The first stage was beginning stage from 1970 to 1980, when progress was mainly made in cytoplasmic male sterile line breeding. The second stage could be described as developing stage, from 1980 to 1995, when indica hybrid rice was rapidly popularized, and japonica hybrid rice became popular later. From 1996, hybrid rice breeding in Jiangsu Province entered the third stage, when both indica and japonica hybrid rice breeding in the three-line system or intersubspecific hybrid rice breeding in the two-line system made a great breakthrough with the successful breeding of the hybrids Feyou 559, 9 You 138 and Liangyoupeijiu. The developing trend of hybrid rice breeding in Jiangsu Province is also discussed.

Fertility Expression of TGMS-Genes in the Backgrounds of indica CMS-lines,B-lines and R-lines of Hybrid Rice

The generation fertility of 51 F1, 19 F2 and 6 BC1 between 3 thermo-sensitive genic male sterile lines （TGMS-lines） Pei＇ai 64S, 6311S and 360S, and the three lines of hybrid rice including 7 indica cytoplasmic male sterile lines （CMS-lines） and their corresponding maintainer lines （B-lines） and 3 indica restorer lines （R-lines） were investigated to study the expression of TGMS-genes in the backgrounds of the three lines of hybrid rice. Pei＇ai 64S has stronger fertility restoring （Rf） genes for CMS-lines and its TGMS trait is governed by 2 pairs of independent recessive genes; The TGMS trait of 6311S is governed by a single recessive gene with weaker Rf-gene in 6311S and the TGMS trait of 360S is governed by a single recessive gene with no Rf-gene in 360S. The investigation on the fertility of F1 plants between 5 CMS-lines and 4 TGMS generations selected from F2 plants of 4 CMS-lines x 6311S confirmed that the expression of TGMS-gene was controlled by Rf-gene in the genetic background of cytoplasm of CMS-lines, but not affected by Rf-gene in the genetic background of normal fertile cytoplasm. The potential breeding strategies of TGMS-lines with cytoplasm of CMS-lines and CMS-lines with the nucleus of TGMS-genes were discussed.

A FAST SEARCH METHOD OF STEERED RESPONSE POWER WITH SMALL-APERTURE MICROPHONE ARRAY FOR SOUND SOURCE LOCALIZATION

The Steered Response Power(SRP)method works well for sound source localization in noisy and reverberant environment.However,the large computation complexity limits its practical application.In this paper,a fast SRP search method is proposed to reduce the computational complexity using small-aperture microphone array.The proposed method inspired by the SRP spatial spectrum includes two steps:first,the proposed method estimates the azimuth of the sound source roughly and determines whether the sound source is in far field or near field;then,different fine searching operations are performed according to the sound source being in far field or near field.Experiments both in simulation environments and real environments have been performed to compare the localization accuracy and computation complexity of the proposed method with those of the conventional SRP-PHAT algorithm.The results show that,the proposed method has a comparative accuracy with the conventional SRP algorithm,and achieves a reduction of 93.62%in computation complexity compared to the conventional SRP algorithm.

Chloroplast DNA Polymorphism in Rice (<i>Oryza sativa</i>L.)

We analyzed the sequence alignment on 25 AA rice and 24 non-AA rice chloroplasts using two length diversity markers (ORF 100 and ORF29-TrnCGCA) and four sequence markers existed in introns of rps16 gene and TrnTUGU-TrnLUAA spacer to explore the chloroplast diversity of different types of rice using PCR amplification and sequencing. Results showed that in terms of the length of ORF100 and ORF29-TrnCGCA, chloroplast DNA (cp DNA) of Hainan ordinary wild rice, Dongxiang ordinary wild rice, Hepu ordinary wild rice and three-line cytoplasmic male sterile wild rice were indica-type, Chaling ordinary wild rice, Fusui ordinary wild rice, Niwara wild rice, Brazilian upland rice and Lemont were japonica-type among in AA genome. Besides, all non-AA wild rice was japonica-type. There were 4 indica-japonica markers utilizing introns of rps16 gene and TrnTUGU-TrnLUAA. We found that all the ordinary wild rice in Chaling and Fusui of AA genome presented as japonica specific sites, while the others owned two indica and japonica specific sites, respectively. There were two indica-japonica sites separately and a 6-base specific fragment in three-line cytoplasmic male sterile materials except Yuetai A, simultaneously, 2-base difference from Hainan wild rice. Moreover, Brazilian upland rice and Lemont were entire japonica specific sites. Result of three markers indicated that the cp DNA of non-AA wild rice was japonica-type and result of one marker showed indica-type. Sequencing results also suggested that wild rice existed many polymorphic base sites, CCDD genome, wart wild rice and malay wild rice had their own specific sites. In conclusion, significant differentiation trend of indica-japonica exhibits in chloroplast of ordinary wild rice, and non-AA wild rice is generally japonica-type. The cytoplasmic polymorphism level of three-line sterile lines is low. It is worth considering whether the cytoplasm of Honglian-type sterile line Yuetai A comes from Hainan ordinary wild rice. Furthermore, genetic polymorphisms in wild rice are far more than in cultivar.
