The oxygen excess ratio （OER） is often used to indicate the air flow condition. Based on a fuel cell system model for vehicles, OER performance was analyzed for different stack currents and temperatures in this paper, and the results show that the optimal OER was affected weakly by the stack temperature. In order to ensure the system working in optimal OER, a control scheme that includes an optimal OER regulator and a fuzzy control was proposed. According to the stack current, a reference value of air flow rate was obtained with the optimal OER regulator and then the air compressor motor voltage was controlled with the fuzzy controller to adjust the air flow rate provided by the air compressor. Simulation results show that the control method has good dynamic and static characteristics.展开更多

Four independent models （i.e., an undoped anatase cell, an anatase cell with a Nb dopant at Ti site （NbTi）, an anatase cell with a Nb-dopant and an oxygen vacancy （NbTi＋Vo）, and an anatase cell with a Nb-dopant and an interstitial oxygen （NbTi＋Oi）） were considered. The density of states, effective mass, Bader charge, charge density, and electron localization function were calcul^ited. The results show that in the NbTi＋Vo cell both eg and t2g levels of Ti 3d orbits make contributions to the electronic conductivity, and the oxygen vacancies （Vo） collaborate with Nb-dopants to favor the high electrical conductivity by inducing the Nb-dopants to release more excess charges. In NbTi＋Oi, an unoccupied impurity level appears in the band gap, which served as an acceptor level and suppressed the electronic conductivity. The results qualitatively coincide with experimental results and possibly provide insights into the preparation of TCOs with desirable conductivity.展开更多

During the treatment process, a high level of ozone was produced by the electrolysis-type ozone generator, and various parameters, such as Soluble Chemical Oxygen Demand （SCOD）, Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids （MLSS）, Mixed Liquor Volatile Suspended Solids （MLVSS）, pH and so on, which char- acterize sludge were investigated. A substantial reduction in the volume of sludge and the release of intracellular materials were observed： SCOD proliferated as a consequence of extending the ozone feeding time; MLSS and MLVSS, especially the ratio of MLVSS to MLSS, dwindled as the action time rose. Through analyzing the effluent quality and excess sludge activity, the sludge-water volume mixture ratio of 1 ： 20 with 50 -60 minutes＇ oxidation treatment was found to be the optimal condition for ozonic disintegration of excess sludge. A remarkable sludge reduction rate of 57% could be achieved under the ozone feeding time of 40 minutes, which revealed the optimal action time.展开更多
