This situation is often attributed to the invalidity of parcel theory. However, evidence shows that the convective Richardson number Ri* might be an improper characteristic scaling parameter for the entrainment process. An attempt to use an innovative parameter to parameterize the entrainment-zone thickness has been made in this paper. Based on the examination of the data of water-tank experiments and atmospheric measurements, it is found that the total lapse rate of potential temperature across the entrainment zone is proportional to that of the capping inversion layer. Inserting this relationship into the so-called parcel theory, it thus gives a new parameterization scheme for the depth of the entrainment zone. This scheme includes the lapse rate of the capping inversion layer that plays an important role in the entrainment process. Its physical representation is reasonable. The new scheme gives a better ordering of the data measured in both water-tank and atmosphere as compared with the traditional method using Ri*. These indicate that the parcel theory can describe the entrainment process suitably and that the new parameter is better than Ri*.展开更多

Moreover, the Nusselt and Sherwood numbers as well as the velocity, nanoparticle concentration, and temperature are emphasized. The results show opposite impacts of the Deborah number and the porosity factor on the velocity distribution.展开更多

In this study, we assessed the model performance in simulating the convectively coupled equatorial waves(CCEWs) by comparing the daily output of precipitation from a 23-yr coupled run with the observational precipitation data from Global Precipitation Climatology Project(GPCP). Four dominant modes of CCEWs including the Kelvin, equatorial Rossby(ER), mixed Rossby–gravity(MRG), tropical depression-type(TD-type) waves, and their annual mean and seasonal cycle characteristics are investigated respectively. It is found that the space–time spectrum characteristics of each wave mode represented by tropical averaged precipitation could be very well simulated by CAMS-CSM, including the magnitudes and the equivalent depths. The zonal distribution of wave associated precipitation is also well simulated, with the maximum centers over the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. However, the meridional distribution of the wave activities is poorly simulated, with the maximum centers shifted from the Northern Hemisphere to the Southern Hemisphere, especially the Kelvin, MRG, and TD waves. The seasonal cycle of each wave mode is generally captured by the model, but their amplitudes over the Southern Hemisphere during boreal winter are grossly overestimated. The reason for the excessive wave activity over the southern Pacific Ocean in the simulation is discussed.展开更多

The convectively coupled Kelvin waves in this study are represented by the two leading modes of empirical orthogonal function （EOF） of 2-25-day band-pass filtered daily outgoing longwave radiation （OLR）, with the estimated zonal wavenumber of 3 or 4, period of 8 days, and eastward propagating speed of 17 m s-1. The most significant impact of ENSO on the Kelvin wave activity is the intensification of the Kelvin waves during the EP E1 Nifios. The impact of La Nifia on the reduction of the Kelvin wave intensity is relatively weaker, reflecting the nonlinearity of tropical deep convection and the associated Kelvin waves in response to ENSO sea surface temperature （SST） anomalies. The impact of the CP E1 Nifio on the Kelvin waves is less significant due to relatively weaker SST anomalies and smaller spatial coverage. ENSO may also alter the frequency, wavelength, and phase speed of the Kelvin waves. This study demonstrates that low- frequency ENSO SST anomalies modulate high-frequency tropical disturbances, an example of weather- climate linkage.展开更多

Nearly half of these events involved dancing sprites, with an additional 16 uncommon secondary jets and at least four extremely rare green emissions called “ghosts” observed following the associated sprites. Due to the absence of the precise timing needed to identify parent lightning, a method based on satellite motion trajectories and star fields is proposed to infer video frame timestamps within an error of less than one second. After verifying 95 sprites from two videos, our method identified the parent lightning for 66 sprites(~70%). The sprite-producing strokes, mainly of positive polarity with peak currents exceeding +50 k A, occurred in the stratiform region of a mesoscale convective complex(MCC)that spanned the Ganges Plain to the southern TP, with a cloud area over 200 000 km2 and a minimum cloud-top black body temperature near 180 K. This observation confirms that thunderstorms in South Asia, akin to mesoscale convective systems(MCSs) in the Great Plains of the United States or coastal thunderstorms in Europe, can produce numerous sprites,including complex species. Our analysis bears important implications for characterizing thunderstorms above the southern TP and examining their physical and chemical effects on the adjacent regions, as well as the nature of the coupling between the troposphere and middle-upper atmosphere in this region.展开更多

The zonal distribution of wave associated precipitation is also well simulated, with the maximum centers over the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. However, the meridional distribution of the wave activities is poorly simulated, with the maximum centers shifted from the Northern Hemisphere to the Southern Hemisphere, especially the Kelvin, MRG, and TD waves. The seasonal cycle of each wave mode is generally captured by the model, but their amplitudes over the Southern Hemisphere during boreal winter are grossly overestimated. The reason for the excessive wave activity over the southern Pacific Ocean in the simulation is discussed.
文摘The influence of E1 Nifio-Southern Oscillation （ENSO） on the convectively coupled Kelvin waves over the tropical Pacific is investigated by comparing the Kelvin wave activity in the eastern Pacific （EP） E1 Nifio, central Pacific （CP） E1 Nifio, and La Nifia years, respectively, to 30-yr （1982 2011） mean statistics. The convectively coupled Kelvin waves in this study are represented by the two leading modes of empirical orthogonal function （EOF） of 2-25-day band-pass filtered daily outgoing longwave radiation （OLR）, with the estimated zonal wavenumber of 3 or 4, period of 8 days, and eastward propagating speed of 17 m s-1. The most significant impact of ENSO on the Kelvin wave activity is the intensification of the Kelvin waves during the EP E1 Nifios. The impact of La Nifia on the reduction of the Kelvin wave intensity is relatively weaker, reflecting the nonlinearity of tropical deep convection and the associated Kelvin waves in response to ENSO sea surface temperature （SST） anomalies. The impact of the CP E1 Nifio on the Kelvin waves is less significant due to relatively weaker SST anomalies and smaller spatial coverage. ENSO may also alter the frequency, wavelength, and phase speed of the Kelvin waves. This study demonstrates that low- frequency ENSO SST anomalies modulate high-frequency tropical disturbances, an example of weather- climate linkage.

文摘This study presents a comprehensive analysis of 132 tornadic events in northeastern China from 2004 to 2023,utilizing radar and ERA5 reanalysis data to investigate the climatology,environmental drivers,and synoptic linkages with Northeast China cold vortices(NCCVs)of tornadic storms under different convective modes.Results reveal that discrete storms account for 70%of events,with clustered cells(CC)being the most frequent mode,while significant tornadoes(EF2+)are primarily associated with isolated cells(IC)and broken lines(BL).The storm mode distribution in northeastern China resembles that of the central United States but with a higher proportion of CC and lower IC.In contrast,southern China exhibits a higher frequency of quasi-linear(QL)modes(>50%),similar to European patterns.Although no single parameter clearly differentiates between all tornado modes,distinct morphological characteristics emerge through specific parameter combinations:NL modes are characterized by high 0-1 km storm-relative helicity(SRH1)and humidity but low 0-6 km shear(SR6),whereas IC modes display contrasting features with low SRH1 and high CAPE.Notably,83%of tornadoes are associated with NCCVs,preferentially forming in southeastern/southwestern quadrants.Strong tornadoes favor southeastern quadrants,while NCCV intensity correlates with tornadic distance from vortex centers.Three characteristic synoptic configurations emerge:(T1)strong deep vortices with vertically aligned cold troughs,generating southeast-dominant tornado clusters characterized by a high proportion of BL and QL modes;(T2)weaker vortices featuring sub-synoptic troughs,with southern-distributed events dominated by a predominance of the CC mode;(T3)transverse-trough systems exhibiting CAPE-SRH decoupling and reduced tornadic activity.This study enhances our understanding of tornadoes in northeastern China,informing future research on formation mechanisms,prediction methods,and disaster prevention strategies.
文摘Thiswork explores aMagnetohydrodynamic(MHD)flowin a triangular cavitywith a thermally insulated baffle.Enclosure’s inclined wall is hotter,whereas the vertical border is adiabatic and the bottom is cooler.The study aims to clarify how geometric changes affect thermal performance and offers new perspectives on how to improve heat dissipation mechanisms.A COMSOL Multiphysics version 6.2 has been used to solve numerical solutions.Streamlines and thermal distributions are examined systematically in order to understand how the unique geometry and baffle size of triangular cavities can influence the fluid flow.This influence can result in optimized flow patterns,promoting efficient heat transfer by directing the fluid to specific areas that require more cooling.In comparison with conventional designs,this optimization results in more efficient convective heat transfer,which raises cooling efficiency and lowers thermal resistance.Furthermore,by strengthening heat transfer characteristics in heat transfer systems,these geometries increase thermal efficiency,which helps several sectors,including the production of electricity,HVAC,and the automobile industry.

文摘Optimizing pyrolysis processes is critical for improving the efficiency of pyrolysis furnaces.This study presents a strategy to enhance heat transfer through agitation,employing Fluent for detailed numerical simulation of the thermal behavior.The simulation results show strong agreement with experimental measurements of localized fluid temperature rise.Forced convection induced by impeller rotation significantly improves heat transfer between the fluid and the furnace walls,effectively reducing thermal stratification.At an impeller speed of 240 RPM,the axial temperature difference decreases from 200 K to 50 K compared with stationary conditions,while the average heat transfer coefficient increases by approximately 50%throughout the heating process.The swirl flow generated by impeller motion disrupts the thermal boundary layer,achieving a more uniform temperature distribution and faster thermal response.
文摘Coiled tube heat exchangers are widely preferred in shell structures due to their superior heat transfer performance,driven by favorable flow characteristics.This study investigates the effect of modifying coil and shell configurations on heat transfer efficiency.Two key enhancements were examined:adding fins to the outer coil surface and integrating longitudinal slots within a hollowed shell.These modifications promote turbulence and extend heat transfer duration,thereby improving performance.However,they also introduce challenges,including increased pressure loss andmanufacturing complexity.Numerical simulationswere conducted usingANSYS Fluent 2024R1 under identical boundary conditions.With a fixed cold-side flow rate of 3 L/min,the input temperatures for the hot and cold fluids were 333.15 and 291.65 K,respectively.The hot-side flow rate varied between 2 and 6 L/min.Simulation outcomes were reported for the objectives of the study that included the improvement in heat exchangers’heat transfer enhancement.As it was indicated in the study outcomes,the average heat transfer rate increased by 15.56%,the overall heat transfer coefficient enhanced by about 29.51%,and the convective heat transfer coefficient improved by about 75.96%compared to the conventional shell-and-coil tube heat exchanger model.However,the modified technique resulted in a significant pressure drop.

文摘Using a recognition model of atmospheric gravity waves(AGWs),we identified 519 AGW events from the OH airglow images observed at the Dandong and Lhasa stations from 2015 to 2017.The 317 AGW events detected at the Dandong station have wavelengths ranging from 30 to 60 km,periods from 14 to 20 min,horizontal speeds from 30 to 60 m/s,and relative intensities from 0.4%to 0.6%,respectively.The parameters of 202 events recorded at the Lhasa station mainly vary within 15-35 km in horizontal wavelength,4-6 min in period,40-100 m/s in horizontal velocity,and 0.1%-0.3%in relative intensity.The occurrence rate peaks in winter and summer at Dandong and the peak in summer are absent at Lhasa because of the lack of convective weather.The seasonal propagation directions of the waves are influenced by both the wind field-filtering effect and the distribution of wave sources.In spring,because of the southeastward background wind field,fewer southeastward events are observed at the Dandong station.The situation at the Lhasa station is similar.In summer,both the Lhasa and Dandong stations are dominated by northeastward AGWs,which can be attributed to the southwestward wind.In autumn,ray-tracing results show that the events at Dandong mainly originate from wind shear,whereas the events at the Lhasa station are triggered by convective weather.The location of the wave sources determines the trend of the propagation directions at the Dandong and Lhasa stations in autumn.In winter,because of the eastward wind,more events are propagating to the southwest at the Dandong station.

文摘Based on the Fluent numerical simulation method,this study systematically analyzed the structural parameters of the spiral tube heat exchanger and the influence of the external baffle on its heat transfer performance.The results show that when the equivalent diameter of the spiral tube increased from 16.68 to 21.23 mm,its surface heat transfer coefficient decreased from 22,040 to 17,230 W/m^(2)⋅K,and the outlet air temperature dropped from 822.3 to 807.3 K.However,the pressure loss decreased from 2.692 to 0.958 kPa.which reveals the contradiction between the heat transfer efficiency and the flow resistance.By adding a baffle to enhance the turbulent disturbance,the wall heat flux density is increased by 21.17%,the surface heat transfer coefficient is increased by 12.1%,and the outlet temperature is optimized,which verifies the significant improvement of the heat transfer performance by the countercurrent design.Comprehensive research shows that the collaborative optimization of spiral tube equivalent diameter parameters and baffle flow control is the key to improve the comprehensive performance of heat exchanger.Theresearch results provide a theoretical basis for energy-saving design of industrial heat exchangers.

文摘High-concentration photovoltaic(HCPV)systems present significant thermal management challenges due to the intense heat fluxes generated under concentrated solar irradiation,especially in arid environments.Effective heat dissipation is critical to prevent performance degradation and structural failure.This study investigates the thermal performance and design optimization of an enhanced HCPV module,integrating numerical,analytical,and experimental methods.A coupled optical-thermal-electrical model was developed to simulate ray tracing,heat transfer,and temperature-dependent electrical behaviour,with predictions validated under real-world desert conditions.Compared to a baseline commercial module operating at 106℃,the optimized design achieved a peak temperature reduction of 16℃,lowering the cell temperature to 90℃under a concentration ratio of 961×and direct normal irradiance(DNI)of 950 W/m^(2).The total thermal resistance was reduced from 0.25 to 0.15 K/W(a 40%improvement),and the electrical efficiency increased from 37.5%to 38.6%,representing a relative gain of approximately 3.1%.The system consistently maintained a fill factor exceeding 78%,underscoring stable performance under high thermal load.These findings demonstrate that targeted thermal design,informed by integrated modeling,is essential for unlocking the reliability and efficiency of high-flux solar energy systems.

文摘The theoretical analysis of the mixed convective Buongiorno nanofluid flow in an inclined annular microchannel with convectively heated walls subjected to the effects of nonlinear thermal radiation,exponential heat source(EHS),thermal dependent heat source(THS)is carried out.The description of the Buongiorno nanofluid is implemented to analyze the Brownian diffusion and thermo-migration mechanisms.The general boundary conditions for the velocity,thermal,and nanoparticle volume fraction(NVF)are considered.Numerical solutions for fully developed governing equations are obtained using bvp5c solver and verified with FEM.The optimization of heat transport rates is made by using the Box-Behnken designbased response surface method.It is found that the Lorentz force and the inclination angle of the annulus significantly affect the rheological characteristics of the nanofluid.Nanoparticles increase thermal energy in the system through Brownian diffusion and thermophoresis,resulting in increased temperature field.Internal heat sources would serve as an important tool for modulating the thermal field in microchannel,as they are directly associated.At low-level values of the thermal Biot number,the exponential heat source,and the thermal radiation parameter,it is possible to attain the maximum Nusselt number on both walls of the annulus.

文摘Low-angle grain boundaries(LAGBs)are one of the solidification defects in single-crystal nickel-based superalloys and are detrimental to the mechanical properties.The formation of LAGBs is related to dendrite deformation,while the mechanism has not been fully understood at the mesoscale.In this work,a model coupling dendrite growth,thermal-solutal-fluid flow,thermal stress and flow-induced dendrite deformation via cellular automaton-finite volume method and finite element method is developed to study the formation of LAGBs in single crystal superalloys.Results reveal that the bending of dendrites is primarily attributed to the thermal-solutal convection-induced dendrite deformation.The mechanical stress of dendrite deformation develops and stabilises as solidification proceeds.As the width of the mushy zone gets stable,stresses are built up and then dendritic elastoplastic bending occurs at some thin primary dendrites with the wider inter-dendritic space.There are three characteristic zones of stress distribution along the solidification direction:(i)no stress concentration in the fully solidified regions;(ii)stress developing in the primary dendrite bridging region,and(iii)stress decrease in the inter-dendritic uncontacted zone.The stresses reach maximum near the initial dendrite bridging position.The lower temperature gradients,the finer primary dendritic trunks and sudden reductions in local dendritic trunk radius jointly promote the elastoplastic deformation of the dendrites.Corresponding measures are suggested to reduce LAGBs.

文摘On 19 May 2022, an outbreak of 105 red sprites that occurred over South Asia was fortuitously recorded by two amateurs from a site in the southern Tibetan Plateau(TP), marking the highest number captured over a single thunderstorm in South Asia. Nearly half of these events involved dancing sprites, with an additional 16 uncommon secondary jets and at least four extremely rare green emissions called “ghosts” observed following the associated sprites. Due to the absence of the precise timing needed to identify parent lightning, a method based on satellite motion trajectories and star fields is proposed to infer video frame timestamps within an error of less than one second. After verifying 95 sprites from two videos, our method identified the parent lightning for 66 sprites(~70%). The sprite-producing strokes, mainly of positive polarity with peak currents exceeding +50 k A, occurred in the stratiform region of a mesoscale convective complex(MCC)that spanned the Ganges Plain to the southern TP, with a cloud area over 200 000 km2 and a minimum cloud-top black body temperature near 180 K. This observation confirms that thunderstorms in South Asia, akin to mesoscale convective systems(MCSs) in the Great Plains of the United States or coastal thunderstorms in Europe, can produce numerous sprites,including complex species. Our analysis bears important implications for characterizing thunderstorms above the southern TP and examining their physical and chemical effects on the adjacent regions, as well as the nature of the coupling between the troposphere and middle-upper atmosphere in this region.

文摘The overall heat transfer coefficient(OHTC)of rock fractures is a fundamental parameter for characterizing the heat transfer behavior of rock fractures in hot dry rock(HDR)geothermal mining.Although a number of practical formulae for heat transfer coefficients have been developed in the literature,there is still no widely accepted analytical solution.This paper constructs highly accurate analytical solutions for the temperatures of the inner fracture wall and the fluid.Then they are employed to develop new definition-based formulae(formula A and its simplification formula B)of the OHTC,which are well validated by the experimental and numerical simulation results.An empirical correlation formula of heat transfer coefficient is proposed based on the definition-based formulae which can be directly used in the numerical simulations of heat transfer in rock fractures.A site-scale application example of numerical simulation also demonstrates the effectiveness of the empirical correlation formula.

文摘The wetting behavior of liquid tin(Sn)solder on copper(Cu)substrate at 250℃was investigated by the wetting balance method under the action of direct current(DC).The curves of wetting balance were measured and the morphology of the intermetallic compound(IMC)precipitated at the interface were observed.Results show that DC has a significant effect on the wettability and IMC.As the current increases,the balance wetting force and the thickness of the IMC layer increase.The direction of the DC also has a certain effect on the balance wetting force and IMC layer.When the current is negative,the final balance wetting force and the thickness of the Cu_(6)Sn_(5) layer are significantly higher than those in the positive current case,which is attributed to electromigration.The IMC precipitation at the interface provides a chemical driving force for the movement of the triple junction.The interaction of the interface atoms and the chemical reaction are enhanced by DC,thereby improving wettability.Meanwhile,the Marangoni convection caused by DC inside liquid Sn solder changes the structure of triple junction,which provides a physical driving force for the spread of the liquid Sn solder on the Cu substrate.

文摘The microstructure of single crystal superalloy is relatively simple,consisting primarily ofγdendrites andγ/γ′eutectics.During the directional solidification process of Ni-based single crystal superalloys,withdrawal rate is a critical parameter affecting the spatial distribution ofγ/γ′eutectic along gravity direction.The results show that theγ/γ′eutectic fraction of the upper platform surface is always higher than that of the lower one,regardless of withdrawal rate.As the withdrawal rate decreases,there is a significant increase inγ/γ′eutectic fraction on the upper surface,while it decreases on the lower surface.The upward accumulation ofγ/γ′eutectic becomes more severe as the withdrawal rate decreases.It is also found that the percentage of Al+Ta is positively correlated with theγ/γ′eutectic fraction.Thermo-solute convection of Al and Ta solutes in the solidification front is the prime reason for the non-uniform distribution of eutectic.The non-uniform distribution ofγ/γ′eutectic cannot be eliminated even after subsequent solution heat treatment,resulting in excess eutectic on the upper surface and thus leading to the scrapping of the blade.
