文摘The dissolution of MgO-refractory into the slag had an obvious influence on the steel-slag reaction and the slag property,especially for high-aluminum steels.The dissolution behavior of MgO-refractory was investigated under various conditions,including the temperature,the initial steel composition,and the initial slag composition.A steel-slag-refractory kinetic model for high-aluminum steel was developed,which incorporated the process of MgO-refractory dissolution.The dependence of the MgO mass transfer coefficient k_(MgO)^(r)on temperature T during MgO-refractory dissolution process was established,as described by ln k_(MgO)^(r)=63,754/T+24.38524.It was indicated that the MgO dissolution rate was significantly influenced by the temperature.A higher temperature increased the dissolution rate of MgO.The initial steel composition had a slight impact on the MgO dissolution rate.Additionally,the initial slag composition strongly impacted the MgO saturation concentration and the dissolution rate.A lower initial Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2)ratio increased the MgO dissolution rate.The steel-slag-refractory kinetic model accurately predicted the dissolution of MgO-refractory and the influence of dissolved MgO on the viscosity and composition change during steel-slag-refractory reactions.It was suggested that a higher temperature can hardly reduce the viscosity due to the dissolution of the MgO-refractory.

文摘Background:Large language models(LLMs)have shown considerable promise in supporting clinical decision-making.However,their adoption and evaluation in dermatology remains limited.This study aimed to explore the preferences of Chinese dermatologists regarding LLM-generated responses in clinical psoriasis scenarios and to assess how they prioritize key quality dimensions,including accuracy,traceability,and logicality.Methods:A cross-sectional,web-based survey was conducted between December 25,2024,and January 22,2025,following the Checklist for Reporting Results of Internet E-Surveys guidelines.A total of 1247 valid responses were collected from practicing dermatologists across 33 of China's provincial-level administrative divisions.Participants evaluated responses to five categories of clinical questions(etiology,clinical presentation,differential diagnosis,treatment,and case study)generated by five LLMs:ChatGPT-4o,Kimi.ai,Doubao,ZuoYiGPT,and Lingyi-agent.Statistical associations between participant characteristics and model preferences were examined using chi-square tests.Results:ChatGPT-4o(Model 1)emerged as the most preferred model across all clinical tasks,consistently receiving the highest number of votes in case study(n=740),clinical presentation(n=666),differential diagnosis(n=707),etiology(n=602),and treatment(n=656).Significant variation in model preference by professional title was observed only for the differential diagnosis task(χ^(2)=21.13,df=12,p=0.0485),while no significant differences were found across hospital tiers(p>0.05).In terms of evaluation dimensions,accuracy was most frequently rated as“very important”(n=635).A significant association existed between hospital tier and the most valued dimension(χ^(2)=27.667,df=9,p=0.0011),with dermatologists in primary hospitals prioritizing traceability more than their peers in higher-tier hospitals.No significant associations were found across professional titles(p=0.127).Conclusions:Chinese dermatologists suggest a strong preference for ChatGPT-4o over domestic LLMs in psoriasis-related clinical tasks.While accuracy remains the primary criterion,traceability and logicality are also critical,particularly for clinicians in lower-tier hospitals.These findings suggest that future clinical LLMs should prioritize not only content accuracy but also source transparency and structural clarity to meet the diverse needs of different clinical settings.
