The main focus of this work considers the optimization design of airfoils under atmospheric icing conditions for the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV). The ice formation process is simulated by the Eulerian approach and the three-dimensional Myers model. A three-equation turbulence model is implemented to accurately predict the stall performance of the iced airfoil. In recognition of the real atmospheric variability in the icing parameters, the medium volume diameter of supercooled water droplets is treated as an uncertainty with an assumed probability density function. A technique of polynomial chaos expansion is used to propagate the input uncertainty through the deterministic system. The numerical results show that the multipoint/multiobjective optimization strategy can efficiently improve both the ice tolerance and the cruise performance of an airfoil. The reason for the focus on robust optimization is that the ice angle of the optimized airfoil becomes less critical to the incoming flow.The optimized airfoils are applied to a UAV platform, in which the performance improvement and the relevant key flow feature are both preserved.展开更多

The new version of the model developed by Egorov and Menter is assessed, and advantages and disadvantages of the SAS simulation are analyzed in detail to provide guidance for industrial application in the future. Moreover, the mechanism of the scale-adaptive characteristics in separated regions is discussed, which is obscure in previous analyses. It is con- cluded that： the mean flow properties satisfactorily agree with the experimental results for the SAS simulation, although the prediction of the second order turbulent statistics in the near wake region is just reasonable. The SAS model can produce a larger magnitude of the turbulent kinetic energy in the recir- culation bubble, and, consequently, a smaller recirculation region and a more rapid recovery of the mean velocity out- side the recirculation region than the DES approach with the same grid resolution. The vortex shedding is slightly less irregular with the SAS model than with the DES approach, probably due to the higher dissipation of the SAS simulation under the condition of the coarse mesh.展开更多

A new kind of amphiphilic polystyrene-g-poly (ethylene oxide)graft copolymer containing both microphase separated and PEO side chain structures has been synthesized from radical copolymerization of PEO-A macromonomer with styrene. After careful purification by a newly-developed method called 'selective dissolution', the well-defined structure of the purified copolymers was confirmed by IR, ~1H-NMR and GPC. Various experimental parameters controlling the copolymerization were studied in detail. The results indicated that the feed ratio of styrene to macromonomer(S/M) was the most important determining factor for the composition of the copolymers. A detailed 'comb- model' was proposed to describe the molecular structure of the graft copolymers. Finally, this amphiphilic graft copolymers may readily form microphase separated structures as clearly indicated by transmission electron microscopy.展开更多

Such a process is hugely complex as there are many diverse routes for a laminar flow to become turbulent flow. The transition process is usually initiated by flow instabilities—a primary instability stage followed by a secondary instability stage. This forms a rational framework for the early stage of a transition process and it is crucially important to understand the physics of instabilities leading to turbulence. This article reviews the results of studies on secondary instability of separated shear layers in separation bubbles and summaries the current status of our understanding in this area.展开更多

The applied constant voltage was 24 V and the electrode gap was 24 cm. Two types of soil （sandy soil and loam soil） were selected because of their different conductive capabilities. The initial concentrations of pyrene in these soil samples were 261.3 mg/kg sandy soil and 259.8 mg/kg loam soil After treatment of the sandy soil and loam soil for seven days, 56.8% and 20.1% of the pyrene had been removed respectively. Under the same power supply voltage, the removal of the pollutant from the sandy soil was greater than that from the loam soil, due to the higher current and lower pH. Further analysis revealed that the effectiveness of electrokinetic remediation was affected by the energy expenditure, and was associated with changes in soil properties.展开更多

High spatiotemporal resolution images and velocity fields of supersonic flow over the testing model were captured. The fine structures and their spatial evolutionary characteristics without and with the micro-ramps were revealed and compared. The large-scale structures generated by the micro-ramps can survive the downstream FFS flowfield. The micro-ramps control on the flow separation and the separation shock unsteadiness was investigated by PIV results. With the micro-ramps, the reduction in the range of the reversal flow zone in streamwise direction is 50% and the turbulence intensity is also reduced. Moreover, the reduction in the average separated region and in separation shock unsteadiness are 47% and 26%, respectively. The results indicate that the micro-ramps are effective in reducing the flow separation and the separation shock unsteadiness.展开更多

文摘To mitigate the sand burial of highways in sandy regions,a separated subgrade design was widely adopted in the embankments of high-grade highways,but the problem of sand deposition on subgrade slopes and pavements still happens frequently.Based on the theory of wind-sand two-phase flow,this paper constructed a three-dimensional model of the separated subgrade,the wind-sand flow transport law around the subgrade with varying median strip widths and concave depths was simulated by Fluent software.After comparison and analysis of seven subgrade models,the flow field distribution,wind speed horizontal variation,and erosion-deposition characteristics were investigated.The findings are as follows:(1)The width of the median strip in the separated subgrade had significant influences on the wind-sand flow.The smooth passage of wind-sand flow over the road surface was facilitated with the increase of the median strip width.However,sand deposition in the median strip happened.It can lead to secondary sand damage of downwind subgrade and increase the work load of road sand removal for subsequent maintenance.(2)The obstruction to airflow and sand accumulation was aggravated with greater concave depth of the median strip.Therefore,it is advisable to minimize the concave depth of the median strip in case of more sand damage.(3)A median strip width exceeding 12 m(possibly without guardrails)for an integral embankment without enough road land is recommended.Conversely,median strip width of over 40 m for separate subgrade with unrestricted land is suggested.(4)In the case of sand deposition in the existing separated subgrade,the median strip can be filled by sand deposition or other materials,then was covered with gravel to form a flat ground like Gobi smooth surface,which can let the wind-blown sand flow pass through the subgrade section without sand deposition.

文摘Herein,a new type of two-dimensional(2D)/2D Ti_(3)C_(2)/TiO_(2) heterojunction was developed for efficient photocatalytic nitrogen reduction reaction(NRR),in which TiO_(2) nanosheets(TiO_(2) Ns)were designed as the main catalyst,while Ti_(3)C_(2) MXene served as the co-catalyst.Experimental and theoretical results revealed that Ti_(3)C_(2) MXene introduced electron-rich unsaturated Ti sites,serving as highly active sites for both the adsorption and activation of N_(2) on the Ti_(3)C_(2)/TiO_(2) heterojunction.Furthermore,the 2D/2D Ti_(3)C_(2)/TiO_(2) heterostructure greatly promoted the directional separation and transfer of charge carriers,facilitated by the internal electric field.This structural feature enabled the spatial separation of the N_(2) reduction and H2 O oxidation half-reactions on the distinct surfaces of Ti_(3)C_(2)(001)and TiO_(2)(001),con-sequently reducing the reaction energy barrier for each respective process.The synergistic effects arising from the interface and surface interactions within the heterojunction conspicuously improved the photo-catalytic NRR activity.As a result,the optimized Ti_(3)C_(2)/TiO_(2) heterojunction exhibited a high NH_(3) produc-tion rate of 24.4μmol g−1 h−1 in the absence of sacrificial agents,representing a remarkable 12.8-fold increase compared to individual TiO_(2) Ns.This work provides new insights into rational design of high-performance heterogeneous photocatalysts and offers a deeper understanding of the mechanism under-lying surface active sites in the photocatalytic NRR process.

文摘Natural ice accretion on the lifting surface of an aircraft is detrimental to its aerodynamic performance, as it changes the effective streamlined body. The main focus of this work considers the optimization design of airfoils under atmospheric icing conditions for the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV). The ice formation process is simulated by the Eulerian approach and the three-dimensional Myers model. A three-equation turbulence model is implemented to accurately predict the stall performance of the iced airfoil. In recognition of the real atmospheric variability in the icing parameters, the medium volume diameter of supercooled water droplets is treated as an uncertainty with an assumed probability density function. A technique of polynomial chaos expansion is used to propagate the input uncertainty through the deterministic system. The numerical results show that the multipoint/multiobjective optimization strategy can efficiently improve both the ice tolerance and the cruise performance of an airfoil. The reason for the focus on robust optimization is that the ice angle of the optimized airfoil becomes less critical to the incoming flow.The optimized airfoils are applied to a UAV platform, in which the performance improvement and the relevant key flow feature are both preserved.

文摘In transonic flow,buffet is a phenomenon of flow instability caused by shock wave/boundary layer interaction and flow separation.The phenomenon is common in transonic flow,and it has serious impact on the structural strength and fatigue life of aircraft.In this paper,three typical airfoils:the supercritical OAT15A,the high-speed symmetrical NACA64A010,and the thin,transonic/supersonic NACA64A204 are selected as the research objects.The flow fields of these airfoils under pre-buffet and buffet onset conditions are simulated by Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (URANS) method,and the mode analysis of numerical results is carried out by Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD).Qualitative and quantitative analysis of the shock wave motion,shock wave intensity,shock foot bubble and trailing edge separation,and pressure coefficient fluctuation were performed to attain deep insight of transonic buffet flow features of different airfoils near buffet onset conditions.The results of DMD analysis show that the energy proportion of the steady mode of these airfoils decreases dramatically when approaching the buffet onset angle of attack,while the growth rate of the primary mode increases inversely.It was found that at the onset of buffet,there exist different degrees of merging behavior between shock foot bubble and trailing edge separation during one buffet cycle,and the instability of shock wave and separation induced shear layer are closely related to the merging behavior.

文摘Acryloyl terminated Poly (ethyleneoxide)macromonomers (PEO-A) with different PEO chain lengths have been prepared by deactivation of PEO alkoxide with acryloyl chloride. A new kind of amphiphilic polystyrene-g-poly (ethylene oxide)graft copolymer containing both microphase separated and PEO side chain structures has been synthesized from radical copolymerization of PEO-A macromonomer with styrene. After careful purification by a newly-developed method called 'selective dissolution', the well-defined structure of the purified copolymers was confirmed by IR, ~1H-NMR and GPC. Various experimental parameters controlling the copolymerization were studied in detail. The results indicated that the feed ratio of styrene to macromonomer(S/M) was the most important determining factor for the composition of the copolymers. A detailed 'comb- model' was proposed to describe the molecular structure of the graft copolymers. Finally, this amphiphilic graft copolymers may readily form microphase separated structures as clearly indicated by transmission electron microscopy.

文摘By introducing a more general auxiliary ordinary differential equation （ODE）, a modified variable separated ODE method is developed for solving the mKdV-sinh-Gordon equation. As a result, many explicit and exact solutions including some new formal solutions are successfully picked up for the mKdV-sinh-Gordon equation by this approach.
文摘The process through which a laminar flow undergoes transition to turbulence is of great fundamental and practical interest. Such a process is hugely complex as there are many diverse routes for a laminar flow to become turbulent flow. The transition process is usually initiated by flow instabilities—a primary instability stage followed by a secondary instability stage. This forms a rational framework for the early stage of a transition process and it is crucially important to understand the physics of instabilities leading to turbulence. This article reviews the results of studies on secondary instability of separated shear layers in separation bubbles and summaries the current status of our understanding in this area.

文摘The effectiveness of electrokinetic remediation for pyrene-contaminated soil was investigated by an anode-cathode separated system using a salt bridge. The applied constant voltage was 24 V and the electrode gap was 24 cm. Two types of soil （sandy soil and loam soil） were selected because of their different conductive capabilities. The initial concentrations of pyrene in these soil samples were 261.3 mg/kg sandy soil and 259.8 mg/kg loam soil After treatment of the sandy soil and loam soil for seven days, 56.8% and 20.1% of the pyrene had been removed respectively. Under the same power supply voltage, the removal of the pollutant from the sandy soil was greater than that from the loam soil, due to the higher current and lower pH. Further analysis revealed that the effectiveness of electrokinetic remediation was affected by the energy expenditure, and was associated with changes in soil properties.

文摘The effects of the micro-ramps on supersonic turbulent flow over a forward-facing step（FFS） was experimentally investigated in a supersonic low-noise wind tunnel at Mach number 3 using nano-tracer planar laser scattering（NPLS）and particle image velocimetry（PIV） techniques. High spatiotemporal resolution images and velocity fields of supersonic flow over the testing model were captured. The fine structures and their spatial evolutionary characteristics without and with the micro-ramps were revealed and compared. The large-scale structures generated by the micro-ramps can survive the downstream FFS flowfield. The micro-ramps control on the flow separation and the separation shock unsteadiness was investigated by PIV results. With the micro-ramps, the reduction in the range of the reversal flow zone in streamwise direction is 50% and the turbulence intensity is also reduced. Moreover, the reduction in the average separated region and in separation shock unsteadiness are 47% and 26%, respectively. The results indicate that the micro-ramps are effective in reducing the flow separation and the separation shock unsteadiness.
