We first employ Fourier transformation to remove the influence of atmospheric temperature variations from the observation series, which are classified into the type of the steady-state temperature monotonously increasing with depth (type I) and other three types. Then we compare our results obtained from the data of type I, of which the values are thought to equal to those of the mean borehole heat flow, with those obtained from traditional heat flow observations mainly distributed in North China Craton. In computations of the SAHF at the observation stations, we deduce the thermal diffusivity and volumetric specific heat of the soil by employing harmonic solutions of the heat conduction equation for the same moisture group as the first step, and then we determine the SAHF using Fourier's law. Our results indicate that the SAHF derived from shallow earth geothermal data can reflect the heat flow field to a large extent.展开更多

The results indicate that surface albedo decreases with increases in soil moisture content, showing a typical exponential relation between the surface albedo and the soil moisture. The heat capacity, the soil thermal diffusivity, and soil thermal conductivity show large variations between Julian day 90-212 and 450-578. The soil thermal conductivity is found to increase as a power function of soil moisture. Soil heat capacity and soil thermal diffusivity increase with increases in soil moisture. The SACOL observed soil moisture are also used to validate the AMSR-E/AQUA retrieved soil moisture and there is good agreement between them. The analysis of the relationship between satellite retrieved soil moisture and precipitation suggests that the variability of soil moisture depends on the variation of precipitation over the Loess Plateau.展开更多

The diurnal variation of surface albedo appears as a U shape curve on sunny days. Surface albedo decreases with the increase of solar elevation angle, and it tends to be a constant when solar elevation angle is larger than 40°. So the daily average surface albedo was computed using the data when solar elevation angle is larger than 40° Mean daily surface albedo is found to decrease with the increase of soil moisture, showing an exponential dependence on soil moisture. The variations of soil heat capacity are small during Julian days 90 300. Compared with the heat capacity, soil thermal conductivity has very gentle variations during this period, but the soil thermal diffusivity has wide variations during the same period. The soil thermal conductivity is found to increase as a power function of soil moisture. The soil thermal diffusivity increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of soil moisture.展开更多

The effects of cryogenic treatment on the thermal physical properties of CU76,12A123,88 alloy were investigated by comparing the variation of the thermal parameters before and after cryogenic treatment. The results show that the variation trend of the thermal diffusion coefficient, heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and thermal expansion coefficient of CU76.12Al23.88 alloy after cryogenic treatment was the same as before. The cryogenic treatment can increase the thermal diffusion coefficient, thermal conductivity, and thermal expansion coeffi- cient of Cu76.12Al23.88 alloy and decrease its heat capacity. The maximum difference in the thermal diffusion coefficient between the before and after cryogenic treatment appeared at 400℃. Similarly, thermal conductivity was observed at 200℃.展开更多

Thermal property of LED packaging material determines the heat dissipations of the phosphor and the chip surface, accordingly having an influence on the light-emitting efficiency and the life-span of the device. In this paper, photoacoustic piezoelectric (PAPE) technique has been employed to investigate the thermal properties of polyvinyl alcohol (]?VA) and silicon dioxide, which are the new and the traditional packaging materials in white LED, respectively. Firstly, the theory of PAPE technique has been developed for two-layer model in order to investigate soft materials; secondly, the experimental system has been set up and adjusted by measuring the reference sample; thirdly, the thermal diffusivities of PVA and silicon dioxide are measured and analysed. The experimental results show that PVA has a higher thermal diffusivity than silicon dioxide and is a better packaging material in the sense of thermal diffusivity for white LED.展开更多

The materials are cast in controlled thermal environments and produced in three dissimilar cooling rates. The cooling rate together with the carbon content largely influence the thermal conductivity of grey iron. Linear relationships exist between the thermal conductivity and the carbon content,the carbon equivalent and the fraction of former primary solidified austenite transformed into pearlite. The work shows that optimal thermal transport properties are obtained at medium cooling rates. Equations describing the thermal conductivity of pearlite,solidified as pre-eutectic austenite,and the eutectic of grey iron are derived. The thermal conductivity of pearlitic grey iron is modeled at both room temperature and elevated temperature with good accuracy.展开更多

And their ablation discrepancies were analyzed according to the surface characteristic, porosity and thermal diffusivity. The results show that the 0°/45° weftless composite has a fiat eroded surface with no obvious macroscopic pits. Its thickness and mass erosion rates are decreased by about 46.8% and 34.8%, 25.0% and 27.5%, and 17.5% and 19.4% compared with those of the mat, the 0°/90° weftless and the 0°/45° twill composites, respectively. The ablation properties are mainly controlled by the thermo-chemical effect (oxidation), and a little by the thermo-mechanical effect (mechanical denudation). The needling fiber bundles play an important role in accelerating the ablation process and resulting in the heterogeneous ablation.展开更多

The changes in the frost and thaw fronts (FTFs) affect the water and energy cycles between the land surface and the atmosphere. Thus, the frozen soil com- prising permafrost and seasonally frozen soil has important effects on the land surface hydrology in cold regions. In this study, a two-directional freeze and thaw algorithm is incorporated into a thermal diffusion equation for simulating FTFs. A local adaptive variable-grid method is used to discretize the model. Sensitivity tests demonstrate that the method is stable and FTFs can be tracked continuously. The FTFs and soil tempera- ture at the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau D66 site are simulated hourly from September 1, 1997 to September 22, 1998. The results show that the incorporated model performs much better in the soil temperature simulation than the original thermal diffusion equation, showing potential applications of the method in land-surface process modeling.展开更多

We improved the SiB2 model by incorporating a revised force-restore method (FRM) to take the vertical heterogeneity of soil thermal diffusivity (k) into account. The results indicate that (1) the revised FRM alleviates daytime overestimation and nighttime underestimation in modeled ground surface temperature (Tg), and (2) its role in little rainfall events is significant because the vertical gradient of k increases with increasing surface evaporation. Since the original formula of thermal conductivity (A) in the SiB2 greatly underestimates soil thermal conductivity, we compared five Mgorithms of A involving soil moisture to investigate the cause of overestimation during the day and underestimation at night on the basis of the revised FRM. The results show that (1) the five algorithms significantly improve Tg prediction, especially in daytime, and (2) taking one of these five algorithms as an example, the simulated Tg values in the daytime are closer to the field measurements than those in the nighttime. The differences between modeled Tg and field measurements are mostly within the margin of error of -4-2 K during 3 August to 4 September 1998.展开更多

Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction were used to investigate the microstructure of the zirconia coatings. Thermal diffusivity values at normal temperatures have been evaluated by laser flash technique. Effect of annealing on the microstructure evolution of the zirconia coating has been performed. The grains and thermal diffusivity are increased with increasing annealing time and temperature. The grain growth is according to the GRIGC (the grain rotation induced grain coalescence) mechanism. The increase in thermal diffusivity is attributed to the grain growth and the decrease in porosity of nanostructured zirconia coatings.展开更多

For this purpose, the decomposition of Cu(OH)_(2) into CuO is studied in a time range up to 120 h, by subjecting the sample to morphological, structural, and spectroscopic characterizations. The time evolution of thermal diffusivity can be divided into three regions for demonstrating the dynamics of the reaction. When the reaction is complete, the thermal diffusivity is also found to be saturated. In addition to the morphological modifications,from rods to flakes, the variations in the amount of hydroxyl group are attributed to be responsible for the enhancement of base fluid's thermal diffusivity by 165%. Thus the study unveils the role of hydroxyl groups in the thermal behavior of CuO.展开更多

The governing equations consist of an equation of continuity, three components of momentum, conservation equations for salt, temperature and subgridscale energy, and an equation of state. In the model, according to the hypothesis of Kolmogorov and Prandtl, the viscosity coefficient of turbulent flow of homogeneous fluid is related to the local turbulent energy, and the horizontal and vertical exchange coefficients of mass, heat and momentum are computed with the introduction of subgridscale turbulence energy. The governing equations are solved by finite difference techniques. This model is applied to the Jiaozhou bay to predict thermal pollution by the Huangdao power plant. An instantaneous tidal current field is computed, then the distribution of temperature increment is predicted, and finally the effect of wind stress on thermal discharge is discussed.展开更多

The temperatures of endothermic and exothermic reactions of the alloys were determined by differential scanning calorimetry method. The alloys were prepared by conventional arc-melting technique under helium atmosphere. All the alloys studied exhibit strong supercooling of the liquidus temperatures up to 80 K, which indicates their good glass-forming ability. The specific heat capacity of the alloys achieves the Dulong-Petit's value in the temperature range of 350-550 K except Als6CrsGd6 and Als6ZrsGd6 compositions. The values of both thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of the alloy studied are significantly lower than those for pure aluminum. It is found that embedding 14% (mole fraction) of transition elements (Gd+TM) in the aluminum matrix leads to significant decrease in the absolute magnitudes of both thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity in crystalline state. The thermal conductivity of glass-forming Als6Gd6TMs alloys is strongly affected by directed chemical bonding between alloy components.展开更多

文摘Using the Simple Biosphere Model (SiB2), soil thermal properties (STP) were examined in a Tibetan prairie during the monsoon period to investigate ground surface temperature prediction. We improved the SiB2 model by incorporating a revised force-restore method (FRM) to take the vertical heterogeneity of soil thermal diffusivity (k) into account. The results indicate that (1) the revised FRM alleviates daytime overestimation and nighttime underestimation in modeled ground surface temperature (Tg), and (2) its role in little rainfall events is significant because the vertical gradient of k increases with increasing surface evaporation. Since the original formula of thermal conductivity (A) in the SiB2 greatly underestimates soil thermal conductivity, we compared five Mgorithms of A involving soil moisture to investigate the cause of overestimation during the day and underestimation at night on the basis of the revised FRM. The results show that (1) the five algorithms significantly improve Tg prediction, especially in daytime, and (2) taking one of these five algorithms as an example, the simulated Tg values in the daytime are closer to the field measurements than those in the nighttime. The differences between modeled Tg and field measurements are mostly within the margin of error of -4-2 K during 3 August to 4 September 1998.

文摘Si alloying in the surface layer of NdFeB magnets was realized by thermal diffusion combined with magnetron sputtering.The surface composition,phase structure and morphology of NdFeB(S-Si)specimens were characterized by an X-ray diffractometer,an X-ray photoelectron spectrometer and a field emission scanning electron microscope,respectively.The corrosion resistance of bare NdFeB(S-Si)was analyzed by static full immersion corrosion test and electrochemical experiments.Effects of sputtering and thermal diffusion on the microstructure and corrosion resistance of the surface layer were studied.Results show that surface alloying layer can effectively improve the corrosion resistance of bare NdFeB with the optimized static total immersion corrosion test time in NdFeB(1S-Si)-800 of 36 h,which is much longer than that of the pristine NdFeB(less than 0.5 h).The E_(corr)of NdFeB(1S-Si)-800 positively shifts from-1.05 to-0.92 V,indicating that the corrosion tendency is obviously lower.The J_(corr)is1.45×10^(-6)A/cm^(2)which is 2 orders of magnitude lower than that of the pristine NdFeB(5.25×10^(-4)A/cm^(2)).The intergranular composite oxides existing in Nd-rich phase contribute to the enhancement of corrosion resistance of Si-surface-alloying NdFeB.

文摘The nanostructured zirconia coatings were deposited by atmospherically plasma spraying. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction were used to investigate the microstructure of the zirconia coatings. Thermal diffusivity values at normal temperatures have been evaluated by laser flash technique. Effect of annealing on the microstructure evolution of the zirconia coating has been performed. The grains and thermal diffusivity are increased with increasing annealing time and temperature. The grain growth is according to the GRIGC (the grain rotation induced grain coalescence) mechanism. The increase in thermal diffusivity is attributed to the grain growth and the decrease in porosity of nanostructured zirconia coatings.

文摘In this article,a high-order scheme,which is formulated by combining the quadratic finite element method in space with a second-order time discrete scheme,is developed for looking for the numerical solution of a two-dimensional nonlinear time fractional thermal diffusion model.The time Caputo fractional derivative is approximated by using the L2-1formula,the first-order derivative and nonlinear term are discretized by some second-order approximation formulas,and the quadratic finite element is used to approximate the spatial direction.The error accuracy O(h3+t2)is obtained,which is verified by the numerical results.
文摘The paper explores the evolution of thermal behavior of the material by studying the variations in thermal diffusivity using the single beam thermal lens(TL) technique. For this purpose, the decomposition of Cu(OH)_(2) into CuO is studied in a time range up to 120 h, by subjecting the sample to morphological, structural, and spectroscopic characterizations. The time evolution of thermal diffusivity can be divided into three regions for demonstrating the dynamics of the reaction. When the reaction is complete, the thermal diffusivity is also found to be saturated. In addition to the morphological modifications,from rods to flakes, the variations in the amount of hydroxyl group are attributed to be responsible for the enhancement of base fluid's thermal diffusivity by 165%. Thus the study unveils the role of hydroxyl groups in the thermal behavior of CuO.

文摘The doping of ZnO has attracted lots of attention because it is an important way to tune the properties of ZnO.Postdoping after growth is one of the efficient strategies.Here,we report a unique approach to successfully dope the single crystalline ZnO with Ag by the laser-induced method,which can effectively further post-treat grown samples.Magnetron sputtering was used to coat the Ag film with a thickness of about 50 nm on the single crystalline ZnO.Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet(Nd:YAG)laser was chosen to irradiate the Ag-capped ZnO samples,followed by annealing at700℃for two hours to form ZnO:Ag.The three-dimensional(3D)information of the elemental distribution of Ag in ZnO was obtained through time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry(TOF-SIMS).TOF-SIMS and core-level x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS)demonstrated that the Ag impurities could be effectively doped into single crystalline ZnO samples as deep as several hundred nanometers.Obvious broadening of core level XPS profiles of Ag from the surface to depths of hundred nms was observed,indicating the variance of chemical state changes in laser-induced Ag-doped ZnO.Interesting features of electronic mixing states were detected in the valence band XPS of ZnO:Ag,suggesting the strong coupling or interaction of Ag and ZnO in the sample rather than their simple mixture.The Ag-doped ZnO also showed a narrower bandgap and a decrease in thermal diffusion coefficient compared to the pure ZnO,which would be beneficial to thermoelectric performance.

文摘Orthopyroxene is an important constitutive mineral in the crust and the upper mantle.Its thermal properties play a key role in constructing the thermal structure of the crust and the upper mantle.In this study,we developed a new method to synthesize polycrystalline ferrosilite,one end-member of orthopyroxene,via the reaction of FeO+SiO_(2)→FeSiO_(3).We found that the P-T condition of 3 GPa and 1273 K is suitable to synthesize dense ferrosilite samples with low porosity.We employed the transient plane-source method to investigate the thermal conductivityκand thermal diffusivity D of synthetic ferrosilite at 1 GPa and 293-873 K,of which,κ=1.786+1.048×10^(3)T^(-1)-9.269×10^(4)T^(-2) and D=0.424+0.223×10^(3)T^(-1)+1.64×10^(4)T^(-2).Our results suggest phonon conduction should be the dominant mechanism at P-T conditions of interest since the thermal conductivity and the thermal diffusivity of ferrosilite both decrease with increasing temperature.The calculated heat capacity of ferrosilite at 1 GPa increases with temperature,which increases with increasing temperature with about 10%per 100 K(<500 K)and 4%per 100 K(>500 K).Iron content of an asteroid significantly influences its thermal evolution history and temperature distribution inside.It is expected that the mantle temperature of the Fe-rich asteroid will be higher and the Fe-rich asteroid's cooling history will be longer.

文摘A three-dimensional, first order turbulence closure, thermal diffusion model is described in this paper. The governing equations consist of an equation of continuity, three components of momentum, conservation equations for salt, temperature and subgridscale energy, and an equation of state. In the model, according to the hypothesis of Kolmogorov and Prandtl, the viscosity coefficient of turbulent flow of homogeneous fluid is related to the local turbulent energy, and the horizontal and vertical exchange coefficients of mass, heat and momentum are computed with the introduction of subgridscale turbulence energy. The governing equations are solved by finite difference techniques. This model is applied to the Jiaozhou bay to predict thermal pollution by the Huangdao power plant. An instantaneous tidal current field is computed, then the distribution of temperature increment is predicted, and finally the effect of wind stress on thermal discharge is discussed.

文摘Thermal diffusivity, specific heat capacity and thermal conductivity of AI86Gd6TM8 (TM = Cu, Ni, Co, Fe, Mn, Cr, Ti, Zr, Mo, Ta) glass-forming alloys in the temperature range of 300-880 K were determined by laser flash method. The temperatures of endothermic and exothermic reactions of the alloys were determined by differential scanning calorimetry method. The alloys were prepared by conventional arc-melting technique under helium atmosphere. All the alloys studied exhibit strong supercooling of the liquidus temperatures up to 80 K, which indicates their good glass-forming ability. The specific heat capacity of the alloys achieves the Dulong-Petit's value in the temperature range of 350-550 K except Als6CrsGd6 and Als6ZrsGd6 compositions. The values of both thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity of the alloy studied are significantly lower than those for pure aluminum. It is found that embedding 14% (mole fraction) of transition elements (Gd+TM) in the aluminum matrix leads to significant decrease in the absolute magnitudes of both thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity in crystalline state. The thermal conductivity of glass-forming Als6Gd6TMs alloys is strongly affected by directed chemical bonding between alloy components.
