A composite strategy has been applied for comparative analysis of the optimal venting volume and the airflow distribution between the conventional hood and the novel one in this study. A Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) method is used to simulate the airflow fields and dust-polluted air moving paths. The CFD results show that a two-outlet hood, with one outlet located on the left of the hood, is better for improving dust-polluted air than the hood with one outlet only. It can be concluded that the number of the outlets as well as their location on the hood has a significant influence on the air flow pattern in the hood. The optimal venting volume is also a major consideration that is discussed in the study. The venting volume should be designed by considering both the effective level of air flow velocity around the dust source and the energy saving. The optimal airflow distribution may reduce the turbulence in the hood system.展开更多

It is also reported after chest trauma, cardiac surgery, and endocarditis. We report a rare case of an LV pseudoaneurysm induced by an LV venting catheter through the right superior pulmonary vein during thoracic aortic surgery. A 77-year-old man was referred for surgical repair of a distal aortic arch aneurysm. He underwent total aortic arch reconstruction with the frozen elephant trunk technique. The early postoperative period was uneventful. Postoperative contrast computed tomography and transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) revealed a pseudoaneurysm with a narrow neck at the apex of the LV that had sub-clinically progressed. Because of the risk of spontaneous rupture, an urgent aneurysmectomy was performed via a repeat sternotomy. Under cardioplegic arrest, the pseudoaneurysm was opened and the small orifice, which communicated with the LV, was confirmed. No myocardial ischemic changes were observed around the orifice. The pseudoaneurysm was thought to be induced by endocardial laceration by the tip of the venting catheter. The pseudoaneurysm was closed by linear repair reinforced with felt strips. The patient recovered well and was discharged 18 days after the second surgery. TTE showed no recurrence of LV aneurysm at the last follow-up.展开更多

The characteristics of the combustible cloud, flame and pressure distribution in the external flow field during venting were analyzed in terms of the predicted results.The results show that the external explosion is generated due to violent turbulent combustion in the high pressure region within the external combustible cloud ignited by a jet flame. And the turbulence and vortex in the external flow field were also discussed in detail. After the jet flame penetrating into the external combustible cloud, the turbulent intensity is greater in the regions with greater average kinetic energy gradient, rather than in the flame front; and the vortex in the external flow field is generated primarily due to the baroclinic effect, which is greater in the regions where the pressure and density gradients are nearly perpendicular.展开更多

Left ventricle (LV) distension can worsen already distended and hypocontractile heart. Early recognition and aggressive management of LV distension are essential for the treatment of patients with low cardiac output. The case report presented intends to show advantages of left ventricular venting on ECMO after post-cardiotomy shock. With direct flow measurements on bypass-grafts before and after the vent implantation, it was possible to clearly demonstrate the importance of venting for myocardial perfusion.展开更多

So far, scenarios in which particles were part of the system and should have been accounted for did ignore their presence; the scenarios were treated like a two-phase system. Current research shows that particles can have a major influence on the venting behaviour. Experimental results indicate that particles affect level swell and relief flow especially of foamy systems. Based on those results four different layers of influence of the particle have been identified and are presented in a first model. Based on this model recommendations for the development of new and more complex models are given.展开更多

文摘The process of explosion venting to air in a cylindrical vent vessel connected to a duct, filling with a stoichiometric methane-oxygen gas mixture, was simulated numerically by using a colocated grid SIMPLE scheme based on k-epsilon turbulent model and Eddy-dissipation combustion model. The characteristics of the combustible cloud, flame and pressure distribution in the external flow field during venting were analyzed in terms of the predicted results.The results show that the external explosion is generated due to violent turbulent combustion in the high pressure region within the external combustible cloud ignited by a jet flame. And the turbulence and vortex in the external flow field were also discussed in detail. After the jet flame penetrating into the external combustible cloud, the turbulent intensity is greater in the regions with greater average kinetic energy gradient, rather than in the flame front; and the vortex in the external flow field is generated primarily due to the baroclinic effect, which is greater in the regions where the pressure and density gradients are nearly perpendicular.
文摘Prolonged cardiorespiratory support can be achieved with ECMO that may provide time for myocardial recovery, prevent multiorgan dysfunction and reduce mortality. Left ventricle (LV) distension can worsen already distended and hypocontractile heart. Early recognition and aggressive management of LV distension are essential for the treatment of patients with low cardiac output. The case report presented intends to show advantages of left ventricular venting on ECMO after post-cardiotomy shock. With direct flow measurements on bypass-grafts before and after the vent implantation, it was possible to clearly demonstrate the importance of venting for myocardial perfusion.
文摘Venting is the common safety measure to protect plant equipment against excessive overpressure. So far, scenarios in which particles were part of the system and should have been accounted for did ignore their presence; the scenarios were treated like a two-phase system. Current research shows that particles can have a major influence on the venting behaviour. Experimental results indicate that particles affect level swell and relief flow especially of foamy systems. Based on those results four different layers of influence of the particle have been identified and are presented in a first model. Based on this model recommendations for the development of new and more complex models are given.

文摘Background In High Energy Photon Source(HEPS)the beam vacuum pipes employ TiZrVHf non-evaporable getter(NEG)coatings in order to meet the operation requirements.In many occasions it is inevitable to bring the sectors to atmosphere in order to open detectors,insert or change faulty parts.Consequently,NEG coatings will be saturated and followed with activation to restore the vacuum.Such an intervention would require heating up the whole sector to hundreds of degree and last from 2 to 4 weeks.Purpose Therefore,a Neon venting system is developed in HEPS in order to perform fast interventions without losing much of the performance of the activated NEG coating.Methods Preliminary experiments has been carried out to test the venting with Neon of different purity by comparing pumping speed lost and vacuum recovery before and after Neon venting.Results Results show that Neon with ultrahigh purity(purified by NEG cartridge purifier)could preserve full pumping performance of the NEG coated pipes.Neon with 6 N purity could preserve half pumping performance of the NEG coated pipes,but vacuum could be fully restored in only 2 days.Neon with 5 N purity could saturate the NEG coated pipes,leading to full pumping performance lost.Therefore,Neon with 6 N purity or above is promising in applications of efficient operations in HEPS.

文摘The internal and external flow fields during vented explosions of methane were characterized through numerical simulation,and the capability of numerical simulation thereof was validated by previous experimental data at three ignition positions.The venting mechanism was revealed by the simulated concentration distribution,temperature profile,and airflow velocity.The results show rear ignition results in the external methane mass distribution taking the form of"mushroom"and columnar flames in the external space,which can be expressed as a third-order polynomial relationship with distance;central ignition forms a relationship of the form y=AxB.Front ignition causes the temperature to show a tendency to repeated oscillations(rising,falling,and rising).Central ignition generates the maximum vented airflow velocity(V_(max)=320 m/s)upon vent opening.The results indicate that it is acceptable to apply numerical simulation of methane explosions in practice.

文摘Bathymodiolus mussels distribute in both deep-sea cold seep and hydrothermal vent environments,whose endosymbiotic gill tissue is a prominent character for the adaptation of extreme habitats.However,few studies explored the adaptation mechanisms through comparative transcriptome sequencing and analysis of different tissues between seep mussels and vent mussels.We performed the comparative transcriptome sequencing and analysis for three tissue types(gill,mantle,and adductor muscle)of Bathymodiolus mussels collected from a cold seeping site Station S 11 and the 50-km away hydrothermal field Minami-Ensei Knoll in the Okinawa Trough.Results show that gene expression patterns had distinct tissue specificity.Compared with the non-endosymbiotic tissues(mantle and adductor muscle),the significantly strengthened gene functions in endosymbiotic gill included microbial recognition(fibrinogen C domain-containing protein 1-B-like(fibcd),fibrinogen-related protein 8(frp),peptidoglycan recognition proteins(pgrp),and C-type lectin(clec)),cell apoptosis and immunity(interferon regulatory factor 1/2-like 1(ir f),cathepsin D(ctsd),caspase 2(casp 2)),and antioxidant capacity(copper/zinc superoxide dismutase(czsod),glutathione peroxidase(gpx),selenoprotein(sel)),in both seep and vent individuals.Consistent with metal accumulation,high expression levels of genes related to heavy metal detoxification(cytochrome P 450(cyp),ferritin-like(ftl),metallothionein(mt),glutathione S-transferase(gst))were also observed in gill.Moreover,to adapt to high hydrostatic pressure in the deep sea,the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathways associated with cellular community were significantly enriched in all three tissues,suggesting the regulation of cell structure and cell adhesion at transcriptional level.This study obtained gene expression profiles of deep-sea mussels subsisting at cold seep and hydrothermal vent sites,which could lay foundations for comprehensive investigations of molecular basis in adaptation of deep-sea mussels to the two extreme ecosystems.
文摘Post-reperfusion syndrome(PRS)in liver transplant recipients remains one of the most dreaded complications in liver transplant surgery.PRS can impact the short-term and long-term patient and graft outcomes.The definition of PRS has evolved over the years,from changes in arterial blood pressures and heart and/or de-creases in the systemic vascular resistance and cardiac output to including the fibrinolysis and grading the severity of PRS.However,all that did not reflect on the management of PRS or its impact on the outcomes.In recent years,new scientific techniques and new technology have been in the pipeline to better understand,manage and maybe prevent PRS.These new methods and techniques are still in the infancy,and they have to be proven not in prevention and management of PRS but their effects in the patient and graft outcomes.In this article,we will review the long history of PRS,its definition,etiology,mana-gement and most importantly the new advances in science and technology to prevent and properly manage PRS.

文摘A surface micro-/nano-structured metal plate can be joined with an injection molded plastic piece in a mold,which has been named injection molded direct joining(IMDJ).The injected plastic melt infiltrates the micro-/nano-structure,e.g.,a porous structure with micro/nano pores,on the metal plate while flowing in the mold cavity where the metal plate is inserted.After solidification of the plastic,the metal and plastic materials are directly joined via the micro-/nano-structured metal surface.Since air is trapped by the plastic melt,it is easily imagined that the air in the mold cavity prevents the melt plastic from contacting the metal surface and infiltrating the micro-/nano-structure,which could result in poorer joining performance.To avoid the prevention of the air for the better joining performance,the present study proposes a system actively venting the mold cavity during injection molding.To apply the active venting to IMDJ,venting and sealing systems were newly developed.In addition,a system measuring air pressure of the mold cavity was developed.The proposed system was evaluated by a measurement of joining strengths of IMDJ specimens that were produced under various conditions.From the results,it is concluded that the active venting does not necessarily have a positive effect in any cases:the effect depends on the type of surface micro-/nano-structure.

文摘Dissolved carbon(dissolved organic carbon and dissolved inorganic carbon)is the major component of the ocean carbon cycle,representing one of the largest carbon pools on Earth.Cold seeps and hydrothermal systems serve as the two main windows for the material and energy recycling exchange between the lithosphere and outer spheres(biosphere,hydrosphere and atmosphere).However,recent studies have found that the dynamic activities of fluids in these two extreme systems are a crucial source of‘new'carbon in the deep ocean.These carbon sources may become vital contributors to carbon and energy in marine ecosystems,which affect the global deep-sea carbon budget,and the marine ecosystems as well.In this review,we summarize the sources and formation mechanisms of dissolved carbon in the seep fluids from the cold seeps and hydrothermal vents,the contribution of methane oxidation to dissolved carbon,and the characteristics of the carbon isotope composition in the fluid.Furthermore,we analyze and discuss the influence of carbon discharged from seabed on the seawater carbon cycle by comparing and contrasting these two extreme environments.The research may assist in promoting a deeper understanding of the carbon cycle and material interaction in the ocean,particularly further carbon cycle research in the back-arc basin where cold seeps and hydrothermal vents commonly prevail.
