The plate exchanges heat with an external fluid. Both conditions of equal and different reference temperatures of the external fluid are considered. First, the simple cases of the negligible Brinkman number or the negligible Grashof number are solved analytically. Then, the combined effects of buoyancy forces and viscous dissipation in the presence of heat source/sink are analyzed by a perturbation series method valid for small values of the perturbation parameter. To relax the conditions on the perturbation parameter, the velocity and temperature fields are solved by using the Runge-Kutta fourth-order method with the shooting technique.

There have been studies on nanofluids, including metal, ceramic and magnetic nanoparticles mixed with base fluids such as Water, Kerosene, and Ethylene glycol. However, research on fluids employing semiconductor nanoparticles as supplements to base fluids to generate nanofluids and hybrid nanofluids is limited. For the investigation, Gallium nitrite, a binary semiconductor with excellent heat convection, is together with Cu metal nanoparticles and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> ceramic nanoparticles separately in the base fluid Ethylene glycol (EG) to form hybrid nanofluids. The effects of convective boundary conditions, thermal radiation, heat source/sink, suction/injection, and activation energy on three-dimensional Williamson MHD hybrid nanofluid flow of Cu + GaN + EG, Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + GaN + EG, and Cu + Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> + EG are investigated on a stretched sheet with porosity. A similarity transformation is performed on the governing equations to transform them into dimensionless ordinary differential equations ODEs. Numerical analysis is carried out in MATLAB utilizing bvp5c and the shooting technique. The variations of velocity, temperature, and concentration profiles as a function of different physical effects are presented graphically with dimensionless parameters and explained the variations scientifically. As varied with different parameters, the values of the Skin-friction coefficient, Nusselt number, and Sherwood number are mentioned in the table.展开更多

It is found that on the average, the atmospheric heat source over the QXP is the strongest in June (78 W / m2) and cold source is the strongest in December (?72 W/m2). The sensible heat of the surface increases remarkably over the southwest of the QXP, causing the obvious increase of <Qi> there in February and March, which makes a center of the atmospheric heat source appear over the north slope of the Himalayas. Afterwards, this center continues to intensify and experiences noticeable migration westwards twice, separately occurring in April and June. The time when the atmosphere over the east of the QXP becomes heat source and reaches strongest is one month later than that over the southwest of the QXP. In summer, the latent heat of condensation becomes a heating factor as important as the sensible heat and is also a main factor that makes the atmospheric heat source over the east of the QXP continue growing. On the interdecadal time scale, (Q1) of the QXP shows an abrupt change in 1977 and a remarkable increase after 1977. The atmospheric heat source of the spring over the QXP is a good indicator for the subsequent summer rainfall over the valleys of the Changjiang and Huaihe rivers and South China and North China. There is remarkable positive correlation between the QXP heat source of summer and the summer rainfall in the valleys of the Changjiang River.展开更多
Based on the 1961-1995 atmospheric apparent heat source/sink and the 1961-1990 snow-cover days and depth over the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau (QXP) and the 1961-1995 reanalysis data of NCEP/NCAR and the 1975-1994 OLR data,...Based on the 1961-1995 atmospheric apparent heat source/sink and the 1961-1990 snow-cover days and depth over the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau (QXP) and the 1961-1995 reanalysis data of NCEP/NCAR and the 1975-1994 OLR data, this paper discusses the interannual variability of the heat regime and its relation to atmospheric circulation It is shown that the interannual variability is pronounced, with maximal variability in spring and autumn, and the variability is heterogeneous horizontally. In the years with the weak (or strong) winter cold source, the deep trough over East Asia is to the east (or west) of its normal, which corresponds to strong (or weak) winter monsoon in East Asia. In the years with the strong (or weak) sum mer heat source, there exists an anomalous cyclone (or anticyclone) in the middle and lower troposphere over the QXP and ifs neighborhood and anomalous southwest (or northeast) winds over the Yangtze River valley of China, corresponding to strong (or weak) summer monsoon in East Asia. The summer heat source of the QXP is related to the intensity and position of the South Asia high. The QXP snow cover condition of April has a close relation to the heating intensity of summer. There is a remarkable negative correlation between the summer heat source of the QXP and the convection over the southeastern QXP, the Bay of Bengal, the Indo-China Peninsula, the southeastern Asia, the southwest part of China and the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and in the area from the Yellow Sea of China to the Sea of Japan.展开更多

文摘The arsenic(As)release from sediments in great lakes is affected by various factors.In this study,the characteristics of As release fromsediments was investigated,and the As sources and sinks with the strengths in sediments from different areas(grass-type,algae-type,and grass-algae alternation areas)in great shallow lakes(Taihu Lake,China)were analyzed,and the influence of P competition in the process of As release was also studied.The results showed that changing trend of the values of equilibrium As concentration in sediments were consistent with the regional changes(0 to 28.12μg/L),and the sediments from algaetype areas had the higher values.The sediments from western lake and northwest lake bay were a strong As and a weak P source,and the north lake bay had the opposite trend of these two regions.Intense P source competition with As from the sediments occurred in algae-type areas.The grass-type areas had strong As and P retention capacities,indicating a sink role of sediment with high As and P sorption capacities.The degree of As and P saturation had similar trend in sediments,and the grass-type areas had the higher values,18.3%-21.4%and 15.31%-20.34%,respectively.Contribution analysis results showed that most of As release contribution was from the bottom(30-50 cm)sediments,and the surface(0-10 cm)sediments from algae-type areas contributed more to the overlying water than other region.
文摘An inverse analysis is presented to estimate line heat source in two-dimensional steady-state and transient heat transfer problems.A constant heat source is considered in the steady-state heat transfer problem(a parameter estimation problem)and a time-varying heat source is considered in the transient heat transfer problem(a function estimation problem).Since a general irregular 2D heat conducting body is considered,a body-fitted grid generation is used to mesh the domain.Then governing equations and associated boundary and initial conditions are transformed from the physical domain to the computational domain and finite difference method is used to solve the governing equations to obtain the temperature distribution in the body.Using an efficient,accurate,and very easy to implement sensitivity analysis incorporated in a gradient based minimization method(here,steepest descentmethod),the unknown heat source is estimated accurately.In the function estimation part,it is assumed that there is no prior information on the functional form of the heat source and the estimation process can be performed with a reasonable initial guess for the heat source.The main advantage of the proposed inverse analysis is that the sensitivity matrix(and hence,the objective function gradient with respect to the unknown variables)can be computed during the direct heat transfer solution through newyet simple explicit expressions with no need to solve extra equations such as the sensitivity and adjoint problems and impose additional computational costs comparable to the direct problem solution ones.Some test cases are presented to investigate the accuracy,efficiency,and effect of measurement error on the estimated parameter and function for the line heat source.

文摘An innovative and accurate method for controlling the interfacial structure of Mg-alloy/steel direct lap joints using a hybrid laser-gas tungsten arc(GTA)flexible control heat source was proposed.The study investigated the impact of spatial regulation of a flexible hybrid heat source on the thermal gradient distribution across the joint geometry and the resulting stress states in the joints,revealing the respective bonding and strengthening mechanisms.The findings indicate that the malposition alters the thermal gradient distribution within the joint,influencing the metallurgical bonding area,interfacial structure,fracture mode,and fracture path.Furthermore,the results showed that varying the laser pulse frequency affected the frequency of the laser-induced arc and the number of keyholes generated per unit length of the joint,which effectively altered the joint geometry and interfacial stress state,and could be used to enhance the load-bearing capacity of the joints.The joint's maximum load was measured to be 325.2 N/mm,which is approximately 88%of the Mg-alloy matrix and the highest reported strength for Mg alloy-steel dissimilar lap joints.A composite interfacial layer structure was achieved,consisting of Al_(11)(Mn,Fe)_(4)and a small amount of Mg_(2)Al_(3)intermetallic compounds(IMCs)at the weld front,along with Al_(11)(Mn,Fe)_(4)and Fe3Al IMCs in the weld middle.The key factors to achieving a high bonding strength of Mg-alloy/steel lap joints have been summarized.This study provides a technical and theoretical reference for the precise collaborative control of joint geometry,interfacial structure,and mechanical properties of dissimilar material lap joints.
文摘This study examines the behavior of a micropolar nanofluidflowing over a sheet in the presence of a transverse magneticfield and thermal effects.In addition,chemical(first-order homogeneous)reactions are taken into account.A similarity transformation is used to reduce the system of governing coupled non-linear partial differ-ential equations(PDEs),which account for the transport of mass,momentum,angular momentum,energy and species,to a set of non-linear ordinary differential equations(ODEs).The Runge-Kutta method along with shoot-ing method is used to solve them.The impact of several parameters is evaluated.It is shown that the micro-rota-tional velocity of thefluid rises with the micropolar factor.Moreover,the radiation parameter can have a remarkable influence on theflow and temperature profiles and on the angular momentum distribution.

文摘Using the 1961–1995 monthly averaged meteorological data from 148 surface stations in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau (QXP) and its surrounding areas, calculation of the 35-year atmospheric heat source/sink (<Qi>) and an analysis on its climatic features and relation to rainfall in China have been made. It is found that on the average, the atmospheric heat source over the QXP is the strongest in June (78 W / m2) and cold source is the strongest in December (?72 W/m2). The sensible heat of the surface increases remarkably over the southwest of the QXP, causing the obvious increase of <Qi> there in February and March, which makes a center of the atmospheric heat source appear over the north slope of the Himalayas. Afterwards, this center continues to intensify and experiences noticeable migration westwards twice, separately occurring in April and June. The time when the atmosphere over the east of the QXP becomes heat source and reaches strongest is one month later than that over the southwest of the QXP. In summer, the latent heat of condensation becomes a heating factor as important as the sensible heat and is also a main factor that makes the atmospheric heat source over the east of the QXP continue growing. On the interdecadal time scale, (Q1) of the QXP shows an abrupt change in 1977 and a remarkable increase after 1977. The atmospheric heat source of the spring over the QXP is a good indicator for the subsequent summer rainfall over the valleys of the Changjiang and Huaihe rivers and South China and North China. There is remarkable positive correlation between the QXP heat source of summer and the summer rainfall in the valleys of the Changjiang River.

文摘Based on the 1961-1995 atmospheric apparent heat source/sink and the 1961-1990 snow-cover days and depth over the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau (QXP) and the 1961-1995 reanalysis data of NCEP/NCAR and the 1975-1994 OLR data, this paper discusses the interannual variability of the heat regime and its relation to atmospheric circulation It is shown that the interannual variability is pronounced, with maximal variability in spring and autumn, and the variability is heterogeneous horizontally. In the years with the weak (or strong) winter cold source, the deep trough over East Asia is to the east (or west) of its normal, which corresponds to strong (or weak) winter monsoon in East Asia. In the years with the strong (or weak) sum mer heat source, there exists an anomalous cyclone (or anticyclone) in the middle and lower troposphere over the QXP and ifs neighborhood and anomalous southwest (or northeast) winds over the Yangtze River valley of China, corresponding to strong (or weak) summer monsoon in East Asia. The summer heat source of the QXP is related to the intensity and position of the South Asia high. The QXP snow cover condition of April has a close relation to the heating intensity of summer. There is a remarkable negative correlation between the summer heat source of the QXP and the convection over the southeastern QXP, the Bay of Bengal, the Indo-China Peninsula, the southeastern Asia, the southwest part of China and the lower reaches of the Yangtze River and in the area from the Yellow Sea of China to the Sea of Japan.

文摘The Tibetan Plateau(TP),acting as a large elevated land surface and atmospheric heat source during spring and summer,has a substantial impact on regional and global weather and climate.To explore the multi-scale temporal variation in the thermal forcing effect of the TP,here we calculated the surface sensible heat and latent heat release based on 6-h routine observations at 80(32)meteorological stations during the period 1979–2016(1960–2016).Meanwhile,in situ air-column net radiation cooling during the period 1984–2015 was derived from satellite data.This new data-set provides continuous,robust,and the longest observational atmospheric heat source/sink data over the third pole,which will be helpful to better understand the spatial-temporal structure and multi-scale variation in TP diabatic heating and its influence on the earth’s climatic system.
文摘Micropolar theories present an excellent mechanism for exploring new non-Newtonian materials processing provides a stimulating area for process engineering simulation.Motivated by area for process engineering applications,the present article presents the scope offinite element method in solving a mathematical model for magnetohydrodynamic,incom-pressible,dissipative and chemically reacting micropolar fluid flow and heat and mass transferthrough a porous medium from an inclined plate with heat sourcelsink has been investigated.For this purpose,the set of governing equations have been reframed and put into adimensionless form under the assumption of low Reynolds number with appropriatedimensionless quantities that can fit into the finite element fommulation.In addition tohighlighting the operational aspects of weighted residual scheme,a detailed investigation hasbeen camied out on the associated flow stnucture,heat and mass transfer.The evolution ofmany multi-physical parameters in these variables is illustrated graphically.Finite elementcode is benchmarked with the results reported in the literature to check the validity andaccuracy under some limiting cases and excellent agreement is seen with published solutionsand results of skin friction coefficient,couple stress coefficient,Nusselt number and Sherwoodnumber for invoked parameter are tabulated which shows that increasing heat sourcelsinkparameter elevates temperature.Chemical reaction parameter reduces velocity and concentra-tion gradients.Sherwood number enhances as chemical reaction parameter increases but reverse phenomena is observed in case of inclination of angle.Furthermore,a gridindependency test has been caried out for different grid sizes which has proven this methodis adequate.
文摘This study focuses on the combined impact of heat source/sink and chemical reaction on slip flow of micropolar fluid through a permeable wedge in the existence of Hall and ion-slip currents.The governing highly non-lincar PDEs were altered into a set of non-linear coupled ODEs by using similarity transformations.Differential transformation method(DTM)has been implemented in transformed ODEs equations.The comparison with previous literatures was performed and the data of this study was found to be in accordance with each other.The analytical solutions for skin-friction coefficients(surface drag forces),Nussclt and Sherwood numbers are depicted through graphs and tables.The study of boundary layer flow over a wedge surface plays an imperative role in the field of aerodynamics,heat exchanger,ground water pollution and geothermal system etc.

文摘In this paper,an investigation is made to study the effects of radiation and heat source/sink on the unsteady boundary layerflow and heat transfer past a shrinking sheet with suction/injection.Theflow is permeated by an externally applied magneticfield normal to the plane offlow.The self-similar equations correspond-ing to the velocity and temperaturefields are obtained,and then solved numerically byfinite difference method using quasilinearization technique.The study reveals that the momentum boundary layer thickness increases with increasing unsteadiness and decreases with magneticfield.The thermal boundary layer thickness decreases with Prandtl number,radiation parameter and heat sink parameter,but it increases with heat source parameter.Moreover,increasing unsteadiness,magneticfield strength,radiation and heat sink strength boost the heat transfer.

文摘The spring atmospheric heat source(AHS)over the Tibetan Plateau(TP)has been suggested to affect the Asian summer monsoon and summer precipitation over South China.However,its influence on the summer precipitation in Northeast China(NEC)remains unknown.The connection between spring TP AHS and subsequent summer precipitation over NEC from 1961 to 2020 is analyzed in this study.Results illustrate that stronger spring TP AHS can enhance subsequent summer NEC precipitation,and higher soil moisture in the Yellow River Valley-North China region(YRVNC)acts as a bridge.During spring,the strong TP AHS could strengthen the transportation of water vapor to East China and lead to excessive rainfall in the YRVNC.Thus,soil moisture increases,which regulates local thermal conditions by decreasing local surface skin temperature and sensible heat.Owing to the memory of soil moisture,the lower spring sensible heat over the YRVNC can last until mid-summer,decrease the land–sea thermal contrast,and weaken the southerly winds over the East Asia–western Pacific region and convective activities over the South China Sea and tropical western Pacific.This modulates the East Asia–Pacific teleconnection pattern,which leads to a cyclonic anomaly and excessive summer precipitation over NEC.

文摘Background At presenti heat stress(HS)has become a key factor that impairs broiler breeding industry,which causes growth restriction and poor meat quality of broilers.S elenium(Se)is an excellent antioxidant and plays a unique role in meat quality improvement.Recent years,nano-selenium(NanoSe)has received tremendous attention in livestock production,due to its characteristic and good antibacterial performance in vitro.Here,we developed the heat stressed-broiler model to investigate the protective effects of NanoSe on growth performance and meat quality of broilers and compare whether there are differences with that of other Se sources(Sodium selenite,SS;Selenoyeast,SeY;Selenomethioninec SeMet).Results HS jeopardized the growth performance and caused poor meat quality of breast muscle in broilers,which were accompanied by lowered antioxidant capacity,increased glycolysis,increased anaerobic metabolism of pyruvate,mitochondrial stress and abnormal mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid(TCA)cycle.All Se sources supplementation exhibited protective effects,which increased the Se concentration and promoted the expression of selenoproteins,improved the mitochondrial homeostasis and the antioxidant capacity,and promoted the TCA cycle and the aerobic metabolism of pyruvate,thus improved the breast muscle meat quality of broilers exposed to HS.However,unlike the other three Se sources,the protective effect of NanoSe on meat quality of heat stressed-broilers was not ideal,which exhibited limited impact on the pH value,drip loss and cooking loss of the breast muscle.Compared with the other Se sources,broilers received NanoSe showed the lowest levels of slow MyHC,the highest levels of fast MyHC and glycogen,the highest mRNA levels of glycolysis-related genes(PFKM and PKM),the highest protein expression of H5P60 and CLPP,and the lowest enzyme activities of GSH-Px,citroyl synthetase(CS)and isocitrate dehydrogenase(ICD)in breast muscle.Consistent with the SS,the Se deposition in breast muscle of broilers received NanoSe was lower than that of broilers received SeY or SeMet.Besides,the regulatory effciency of NanoSe on the expression of key selenoproteins(such as SELENOS)in breast muscle of heat stressed-broilers was also worse than that of other Se Sources.Conclusion Through comparing the meat quality,Se deposition,muscle fiber type conversion,glycolysis,mitochondrial homeostasis,and hond rial TCA cycle-related indicators of breast muscle in heat stressed broilers,we found that the protective effects of organic Se(SeY and SeMet)are better than that of inorganic Se(SS)and NanoSe.As a new Se source,though Nanose showed some protective effect on breast muscle meat quality of heat stressed broilers,the protective effect of NanoSe is not ideal,compared with other Se sources.
