By combining energy and mass balance equations with heat and mass transfer coefficients and air psychrometric correlations, the model provides insights into the impact of design and operational parameters on the exchanger cooling performance. Validated against an established numerical model, it accurately simulates cooling behavior with a Root Mean Square Deviation of 0.43 - 1.18˚C under varying inlet air conditions. The results show that tube geometry, including equivalent diameter, flatness ratio, and length significantly influences cooling outcomes. Smaller diameters enhance wet-bulb effectiveness but reduce cooling capacity, while increased flatness and length improve both. For example, extending the flatness ratio of a 15 mm diameter, 0.6 m long tube from 1 (circular) to 4 raises the exchange surface area from 0.028 to 0.037 m2, increasing wet-bulb effectiveness from 60% to 71%. Recommended diameters range from 5 mm for tubes under 0.5 m to 1 cm for tubes 0.5 to 1 m in length. Optimal air velocities depend on tube length: 1 m/s for tubes under 0.8 m, 1.5 m/s for lengths of 0.8 to 1.2 m, and up to 2 m/s for longer tubes. This model offers a practical alternative to complex numerical and CFD methods, with potential applications in cooling tower optimization for thermal and nuclear power plants and geothermal heat exchangers.展开更多

文摘The Global-Regional Integrated forecast System(GRIST)is the next-generation weather and climate integrated model dynamic framework developed by Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences.In this paper,we present several changes made to the global nonhydrostatic dynamical(GND)core,which is part of the ongoing prototype of GRIST.The changes leveraging MPI and PnetCDF techniques were targeted at the parallelization and performance optimization to the original serial GND core.Meanwhile,some sophisticated data structures and interfaces were designed to adjust flexibly the size of boundary and halo domains according to the variable accuracy in parallel context.In addition,the I/O performance of PnetCDF decreases as the number of MPI processes increases in our experimental environment.Especially when the number exceeds 6000,it caused system-wide outages(SWO).Thus,a grouping solution was proposed to overcome that issue.Several experiments were carried out on the supercomputing platform based on Intel x86 CPUs in the National Supercomputing Center in Wuxi.The results demonstrated that the parallel GND core based on grouping solution achieves good strong scalability and improves the performance significantly,as well as avoiding the SWOs.
文摘With the expansion of the office building area,the energy consumption of office buildings is growing.High⁃performance building design contributes to energy saving and the development of green buildings.However,there is a lack of high⁃performance building tools and the workflow is often time⁃consuming.The building performance simulation,multiple objective optimizations,and the decision support model are the new approaches of high⁃performance building design.This paper proposes a newly developed decision support model,a high⁃performance building decision model named HPBuildingDSM,which integrates the building performance simulation,building performance multiple objective optimizations,building performance sampling,and parameter sensitivity analysis to design high⁃performance office buildings.In this research,the HPBuildingDSM was operated to search for the desirable office building design results with low⁃energy and high⁃quality daylighting performances.The simulated results had better daylighting performance and lower energy consumption,whose UDI100-2000 was 37.94%and annual energy consumption performance was 76.28 kWh/(m2·a),indicating a better building performance than the optimized results in the previous case study.

文摘Multi⁃performance optimization of tread rubber composites is a key issue of great concern in automotive industry.Traditional experimental design approach via“trial and error”or intuition is ineffective due to mutual inhibition among multiple properties.A“Uniform design⁃Machine learning”strategy for performance prediction and multi⁃performance optimization of tread rubber composites was proposed.The wear resistance,rolling resistance,tensile strength and wet skid resistance were simultaneously optimized.A series of feasible optimization designs were screened via statistical analysis and machine learning analysis,and were experimentally prepared.The verification experiments demonstrate that the optimization design via machine learning analysis meets the optimization requirements of all target performance,especially for Akron abrasion and 60℃tanδ(about 21%and 9%lower than the design targets,respectively)due to the inhibition of mechanical degradation and good dispersion of fillers.

文摘The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things(IoT)has led to the widespread adoption of sensor networks,with Long-Range Wide-Area Networks(LoRaWANs)emerging as a key technology due to their ability to support long-range communication while minimizing power consumption.However,optimizing network performance and energy efficiency in dynamic,large-scale IoT environments remains a significant challenge.Traditional methods,such as the Adaptive Data Rate(ADR)algorithm,often fail to adapt effectively to rapidly changing network conditions and environmental factors.This study introduces a hybrid approach that leverages Deep Learning(DL)techniques,namely Long Short-Term Memory(LSTM)networks,and Machine Learning(ML)techniques,namely Artificial Neural Networks(ANNs),to optimize key network parameters such as Signal-to-Noise Ratio(SNR)and Received Signal Strength Indicator(RSSI).LSTM-ANN model trained on the“LoRaWAN Path Loss Dataset including Environmental Variables”from Medellín,Colombia,and the model demonstrated exceptional predictive accuracy,achieving an R2 score of 0.999,Mean Squared Error(MSE)of 0.041,Root Mean Squared Error(RMSE)of 0.203,and Mean Absolute Error(MAE)of 0.167,significantly outperforming traditional regression-based approaches.These findings highlight the potential of combining advanced ML and DL techniques to address the limitations of traditional optimization strategies in LoRaWAN.By providing a scalable and adaptive solution for large-scale IoT deployments,this work lays the foundation for real-world implementation,emphasizing the need for continuous learning frameworks to further enhance energy efficiency and network resilience in dynamic environments.
文摘This study develops an analytical model to evaluate the cooling performance of a porous terracotta tubular direct evaporative heat and mass exchanger. By combining energy and mass balance equations with heat and mass transfer coefficients and air psychrometric correlations, the model provides insights into the impact of design and operational parameters on the exchanger cooling performance. Validated against an established numerical model, it accurately simulates cooling behavior with a Root Mean Square Deviation of 0.43 - 1.18˚C under varying inlet air conditions. The results show that tube geometry, including equivalent diameter, flatness ratio, and length significantly influences cooling outcomes. Smaller diameters enhance wet-bulb effectiveness but reduce cooling capacity, while increased flatness and length improve both. For example, extending the flatness ratio of a 15 mm diameter, 0.6 m long tube from 1 (circular) to 4 raises the exchange surface area from 0.028 to 0.037 m2, increasing wet-bulb effectiveness from 60% to 71%. Recommended diameters range from 5 mm for tubes under 0.5 m to 1 cm for tubes 0.5 to 1 m in length. Optimal air velocities depend on tube length: 1 m/s for tubes under 0.8 m, 1.5 m/s for lengths of 0.8 to 1.2 m, and up to 2 m/s for longer tubes. This model offers a practical alternative to complex numerical and CFD methods, with potential applications in cooling tower optimization for thermal and nuclear power plants and geothermal heat exchangers.
文摘Electron beam fluorescence technology is an advanced non-contact measurement in rarefied flow fields,and the fluorescence signal intensity is positively correlated with the electron beam current.The ion bombardment secondary emission electron gun is suitable for the technology.To enhance the beam current,COMSOL simulations and analyses were conducted to examine plasma density distribution in the discharge chamber under the effects of various conditions and the electric field distribution between the cathode and the spacer gap.The anode shape and discharge pressure conditions were optimized to increase plasma density.Additionally,an improved spacer structure was designed with the dual purpose of enhancing the electric field distribution between the cathode-spacer gaps and improving vacuum differential effects.This design modification aims to increase the pass rate of secondary electrons.Both simulation and experimental results demonstrated that the performance of the optimized electron gun was effectively enhanced.When the electrode voltage remains constant and the discharge gas pressure is adjusted to around 8 Pa,the maximum beam current was increased from 0.9 mA to 1.6 mA.
