Since the1970 s, various simulation models have been developed, which can be combined with computational fluidic dynamic software to calculate the fluence delivered in a UV reactor. These models strive for experimental validation and further improvement, which is a major challenge for UV technology in water treatment.

Due to the problematic interactions between the engineering foundations and permafrost, the frozen-soil roadbed of the QTE will be subjected to the more intense thermal disturbances due to the wider black surface. The design and construction for long-term thermal and mechanical stability will face more severe challenges than those in ordinary highways and railways in the same region. In order to provide scientific support for cold regions engineering practices, the QTE Experimental Demonstration Project （EDP） was constructed in situ in the vicinity of the Beilu＇he Permafrost Station in the interior of the QTP. In this paper, the anticipated problems of the proposed QTE project are enumerated, and the structures of the test sections for QTE EDP are described. Through numerical simulations, it was found that the heat transfer processes occurring in each specific road structure are significantly different. The heat accumulation in the highway embankment is mainly due to the black bituminous pavement, but in the railway embankment with its gravel surfaces, it mainly comes from the side slopes. As a result, the net heat accumulation of the highway embankment is three times higher than that in the railway. In expressway, the heat accumulation is further increased because of the wider pavement so that significantly more heat will be accumulated in the roadbed beneath the centerline area. Thus, the thermal stability of the fro- zen-soil roadbed and the underlying permafrost of the QTE can be seriously threatened without proper engineering measures protection against thawing. Based on research and practical experiences from the operating Qinghai-Tibet Railway （QTR） and the Qinghai-Tibet Highway （QTH）, combined with the predicted characteristics of heat transfer in an expressway embankment, nine kinds of engineering measures for mitigating the thaw settlement of foundation soils through the cooling the roadbed soils were built and are being tested in the EDP. The design of the monitoring system for the EDP and the observed parameters were also described.展开更多

Ultra- sonic velocity measurements on the rocks from higher Himalayan crystallines （HHC） and Honghe （红河） strike-slip fault zone in Southwest China showed an average anisotropic magnitude of about 5%. However, a series of seismic measurements conducted in Tibet indicated marked anisotropy with a magnitude ranging from 8% to 18% within middle to lower crust. What causes the anomalously strong anisotropy within Tibetan crust？ Parts of HHC rocks, to some extent, had undergone granulitic-grade metamorphism, the temperature and pressure of which were in excess of their solidus. Additionally, oriented leucocratic portions, which are accepted to be products crystallized from localized melt bands and aligned melt pocket （AMP）, are present in HHC pervasively. If melt is oriented, it is expected to be an extremely important factor to influence anisotropy behavior. Experiments performed on analogue materials composed of plexiglass matrix and chocolate demonstrated that aligned melt could result in an extra anisotropy whose magnitude might increase two to three times. The contribution of AMP on anisotropy is likely comparable to or larger than that induced by LPO of major minerals, possibly amphiboles and micas, in middle to lower crust. It is implied that aligned melt may be a potential factor to induce anomalously strong anisotropy within Tibetan middle to lower crust.展开更多

There are many ways to measure the deflection of Bridges, and the inclination angle method is the most commonly used indirect method, but the existing theory of inclination angle method is relatively complicated. Based on the facts of the bridge small inclination, this article proposes the method of obtaining the bridge deflection by the inclination of the secant line constructed from the adjacent measurement points. Firstly, according to the bending deformation curve of general simply supported beam, the deflection calculation formula of each measuring point is derived based on the assumption of small deformation and the inclination Angle of measuring point. Secondly, a large commercial finite element software ANSYS 10.0 is used to carry out numerical simulation on the simply-supported beam under concentrated load in mid-span, and the deflection results of the numerical simulation are compared and verified with the theoretical results of the proposed method. Finally, the measured deflection results of the simply-supported beam model under mid-span load are compared with the theoretical results of the proposed method. The verification results show that if the actual model is consistent with the theoretical model, the proposed method has good accuracy.展开更多

Because of the complexities of the fractures, it is difficult to use fractured reservoir core samples to investigate true underground conditions. Due to the diversity of the fracture parameters, the simulation and evaluation of fractured rock in the laboratory setting is also difficult. Previous researchers have typically used a single material, such as resin, to simulate fractures. There has been a great deal of simplifying of the materials and conditions, which has led to disappointing results in application. In the present study, sandstone core samples were selected and sectioned to simulate fractures, and the changes of the compressional and shear waves were measured with the gradual increasing of the fracture width. The effects of the simulated fracture width on the acoustic wave velocity and amplitude were analyzed. Two variables were defined： H represents the amplitude attenuation ratio of the compressional and shear wave, and x represents the transit time difference value of the shear wave and compressional wave divided by the transit time of the compressional wave. The effect of fracture width on these two physical quantities was then analyzed. Finally, the methods of quantitative evaluation for fracture width with H and x were obtained. The experimental results showed that the rock fractures linearly reduced the velocity of the shear and compressional waves. The effect of twin fractures on thecompressional velocity was almost equal to that of a single fracture which had the same fracture width as the sum of the twin fractures. At the same time, the existence of fractures led to acoustic wave amplitude attenuations, and the compressional wave attenuation was two times greater than that of the shear wave. In this paper, a method was proposed to calculate the fracture width with x and H, then this was applied to the array acoustic imaging logging data.The application examples showed that the calculated fracture width could be compared with fractures on the electric imaging logs. These rules were applied in the well logs to effectively evaluate the fractures, under the case of no image logs, which had significance to prospecting and development of oil and gas in fractured reservoirs.展开更多

Numerical simulations together with typical experimental measurements show that pressure fluctuations originate above the distributor when a gas pulse is injected into the fluidized bed. The pressure above the bubble gradually increases due to the presence of a rising bubble. When the bubble passes through the bed surface, the pressure near the bed surface gradually decreases to a lower value. Moreover, the pressure signals in the bubbling fluidized beds show obviously periodic characteristics. The major frequency of pressure fluctuations at the same vertical position is affected slightly by the operating gas velocity, and the amplitude of pressure fluctuations is related to both the operating gas velocity and the vertical height. In this study, the influence of the operating gas velocity on the pressure wave propagation velocity can be ignored, and only two peak frequencies in the power spectrum of the pressure fluctuations are observed which are associated with the bubble formation above the distributor and its eruption at the bed surface.展开更多

This system consisits of a rigid airfoil which is supported by a nonlinear torsional spring （freeplay） in the pitch degree of freedom and a linear fiexural spring in the plunge degree of freedom. By attaching a piezoelectric material （PSI-5A4E） to the plunge degree of freedom, we can convert aeroelastic vibrations to electrical energy. The focus of this study is placed on the effects of the freeplay nonlinearity gap on the behavior of the harvester in terms of cut-in speed and level of harvested power. Although the freeplay nonlinearity may result in subcritical Hopf bifurcations （catastrophic for real aircrafts）, harvesting energy at low wind speeds is beneficial for designing piezoaeroelastic systems. It is demonstrated that increasing the freeplay nonlinearity gap can decrease the cut-in speed through a subcritical instability and gives the possibility to harvest energy at low wind speeds. The results also demonstrate that an optimum value of the load resistance exists, at which the level of the harvested power is maximized.展开更多

The emphasis of this work has been put on the influence of the external parameters（i.e., the RF power, the pressure, and the Ar/O2 gas ratio） on the plasma properties. The numerical results show that the RF power has a significant influence on the amplitude of the plasma density rather than on the spatial distribution.However, the pressure and the Ar/O2 gas ratio affect not only the amplitude of the plasma density, but also the spatial uniformity. Finally, the comparison between the simulation results and the experimental data has been made at different gas pressures and oxygen contents, and a good agreement has been achieved.展开更多

It is important in generation, maturation migration, and accumulation of hydrocarbon, but the effects of overpressure on rock frame have not been investigated. In this study, experiments were carried out to study the effects of overpressure on rock frame structures using five core samples from the Junggar basin, Northwest China. The deformations and velocities for the samples were measured at different effective pressures related to non-equilibrium compaction and fluid expansion overpressure mechanisms. The results show that the effect of overpressure on rock frames gradually increases when the effective pressure drops down to a certain value （called critical pressure）. Moreover, non-equilibrium compaction mechanism has more effects on rock frames than fluid expansion mechanism under the same effective pressure. Furthermore to study rock frame structural changes, we use Kuster and Toksoz＇s expressions to simulate the effective aspect ratios of inclusions a （penny shapes） for different effective pressures. The results show that the a decreases dramatically when the effective pressure decreases from the critical pressure. Changes of a can be interpreted as responses to the rock frame changes when grains conform one another by rotating and self-adjusting. However, different mechanisms of overpressure have different effects on rock frames. The rock frame can be affected more easily by overpressure in shallow regions generated by non-equilibrium compaction mechanism. Once this kind of rock frames are preserved after overpressure releases to a normal hydrostatic pressure, they can be identified by their specific rock frame characters. This method provides a new way to study overpressure release and fluid migration and accumulation.展开更多

Monitoring of these parameters was carried out from end February to half of June 2013 just in Physics Department of ITA （Technological Institute of Aeronautics）. By correlating the data of measurements of intensity of X and ）,-radiations with the rainfall it has been found that this meteorological parameter had a significant influence on the background of these radiation profile. A possible reason for this fact is associated with the presence of radon gas in the environment that is dragged to the surface during the occurrences of local rainfall. In relation neutrons, it was possible to note that the rainfall has small influence on this parameter measures.展开更多

文摘It is commonly agreed that seismic anisotropy, most likely caused by lattice preferred orientation （LPO） of major minerals, is a very important indicator of intracrustal deformation. Ultra- sonic velocity measurements on the rocks from higher Himalayan crystallines （HHC） and Honghe （红河） strike-slip fault zone in Southwest China showed an average anisotropic magnitude of about 5%. However, a series of seismic measurements conducted in Tibet indicated marked anisotropy with a magnitude ranging from 8% to 18% within middle to lower crust. What causes the anomalously strong anisotropy within Tibetan crust？ Parts of HHC rocks, to some extent, had undergone granulitic-grade metamorphism, the temperature and pressure of which were in excess of their solidus. Additionally, oriented leucocratic portions, which are accepted to be products crystallized from localized melt bands and aligned melt pocket （AMP）, are present in HHC pervasively. If melt is oriented, it is expected to be an extremely important factor to influence anisotropy behavior. Experiments performed on analogue materials composed of plexiglass matrix and chocolate demonstrated that aligned melt could result in an extra anisotropy whose magnitude might increase two to three times. The contribution of AMP on anisotropy is likely comparable to or larger than that induced by LPO of major minerals, possibly amphiboles and micas, in middle to lower crust. It is implied that aligned melt may be a potential factor to induce anomalously strong anisotropy within Tibetan middle to lower crust.
文摘Vibration can be introduced in all mechanical fields in our life.Engineers try to avoid its negative effect leading in some cases to deformation in the machines.Many researches are dedicated to study the identification of damping especially in multi degree of freedom systems with particular attention to the source of energy dissipation.They focus on developing new tools or methods which may be used in real problems to obtain accurate results about the amount(or value)and the location of energy dissipation in the structure.The aim of this paper is to present an original procedure aims to experimentally determine the modal damping ratio of a mechanical structure.The proposed procedure consists of extracting the Frequency Response Function of the vibrating system using the video magnification method and then calculate the modal damping ratio using the 3-dB method.These experimental measurements are carried out by giving an external force on a cantilever beam,then the modal damping ratios are extracted using motion magnification.The obtained results show a relative error less than 4.2% between the experimental measurements and the analytical calculation for the Frequency Response Function(FRF)curves.The novelty of the paper is to combine the video magnification technique and the 3dB method in a procedure that aims to experimentally measure the modal damping of a mechanical structure.The proposed procedure in this paper represents the damping identification as a simple and easy engineering application.
文摘Deflection is the most direct indicator that reflects the bearing capacity of the bridge and the overall stiffness. There are many ways to measure the deflection of Bridges, and the inclination angle method is the most commonly used indirect method, but the existing theory of inclination angle method is relatively complicated. Based on the facts of the bridge small inclination, this article proposes the method of obtaining the bridge deflection by the inclination of the secant line constructed from the adjacent measurement points. Firstly, according to the bending deformation curve of general simply supported beam, the deflection calculation formula of each measuring point is derived based on the assumption of small deformation and the inclination Angle of measuring point. Secondly, a large commercial finite element software ANSYS 10.0 is used to carry out numerical simulation on the simply-supported beam under concentrated load in mid-span, and the deflection results of the numerical simulation are compared and verified with the theoretical results of the proposed method. Finally, the measured deflection results of the simply-supported beam model under mid-span load are compared with the theoretical results of the proposed method. The verification results show that if the actual model is consistent with the theoretical model, the proposed method has good accuracy.

文摘This study conducted the experimental investigation of aerodynamic heating of Micro-scale Rotational Shearing Flow with Axial Limited-Length(MRSFALL).The temperature riseof the stator is captured by the high response thermocouples.The eccentricity ratio and clearanceheight are guaranteed by means of instantaneous trajectory and torsion monitoring of the rotator.The result shows that the maximum temperature rise takes place upstream of the minimum clear-ance height along circumferential direction.The distribution of temperature rise presents asymmet-ric curve along axial direction,and peak value occurs near the dimensionless axial position of-0.18.The effect of aerodynamic heating becomes notable as the rotational speed is larger than3×10^(4)r/min.The effect of end leakage and the viscous dissipation have great impact on temper-ature rise of MRSFALL.More specially,the peak value of temperature rise at dimensionless clear-ance height of 0.0080 is larger than the case at dimensionless clearance height of 0.0044.Furthermore,when the eccentricity ratio is too large,the viscous dissipation is induced,and theadditional temperature rise is achieved.The heat flux identification of shear flow has been realizedby Sequential Function Specification Method(SFSM)and its estimation of thermal load has been given.The heat flux induced by the aerodynamic heating in this study varies from 950 W/m^(2)to1330 W/m^(2).

文摘Grains are widely present in industrial productions and processing,and are stored in silos.In the silo,auxiliary structures are added to achieve efficient production.However,little effort has been devoted to the influence of the internal structure of the silo on the granular flow.In this work,a silo with a central decompression tube is studied through experimental measurements and discrete element methods.Then,the influences of the central decompression tube on the flow behavior of grains and wall pressure are analyzed.Results show that the grains are in mass flow in the silo without a central decompression tube,while the grains are in funnel flow in the silo with a central decompression tube.Moreover,regardless of whether there is a central decompression tube in the silo,the maximum pressure appears at the top of the conical silo.In the lower part of the silo,the wall pressure of the silo with a central decompression tube is lower than that of the silo without a central decompression tube.Therefore,a silo with a central decompression tube is more conducive to grain storage and discharge than a silo without a central decompression tube.

文摘Fractures in oil and gas reservoirs have been the topic of many studies and have attracted reservoir research all over the world. Because of the complexities of the fractures, it is difficult to use fractured reservoir core samples to investigate true underground conditions. Due to the diversity of the fracture parameters, the simulation and evaluation of fractured rock in the laboratory setting is also difficult. Previous researchers have typically used a single material, such as resin, to simulate fractures. There has been a great deal of simplifying of the materials and conditions, which has led to disappointing results in application. In the present study, sandstone core samples were selected and sectioned to simulate fractures, and the changes of the compressional and shear waves were measured with the gradual increasing of the fracture width. The effects of the simulated fracture width on the acoustic wave velocity and amplitude were analyzed. Two variables were defined： H represents the amplitude attenuation ratio of the compressional and shear wave, and x represents the transit time difference value of the shear wave and compressional wave divided by the transit time of the compressional wave. The effect of fracture width on these two physical quantities was then analyzed. Finally, the methods of quantitative evaluation for fracture width with H and x were obtained. The experimental results showed that the rock fractures linearly reduced the velocity of the shear and compressional waves. The effect of twin fractures on thecompressional velocity was almost equal to that of a single fracture which had the same fracture width as the sum of the twin fractures. At the same time, the existence of fractures led to acoustic wave amplitude attenuations, and the compressional wave attenuation was two times greater than that of the shear wave. In this paper, a method was proposed to calculate the fracture width with x and H, then this was applied to the array acoustic imaging logging data.The application examples showed that the calculated fracture width could be compared with fractures on the electric imaging logs. These rules were applied in the well logs to effectively evaluate the fractures, under the case of no image logs, which had significance to prospecting and development of oil and gas in fractured reservoirs.

文摘A simple hydrodynamic model based on two-fluid theory, taking into account the effect of discrete particles on both the gas- and solid-phase momentum equations, was used to numerically investigate the pressure fluctuation characteristics in a gas-solid fluidized bed with the aid of CFX 4.4, a commercial CFD software package, by adding user-defined Fortran subroutines. Numerical simulations together with typical experimental measurements show that pressure fluctuations originate above the distributor when a gas pulse is injected into the fluidized bed. The pressure above the bubble gradually increases due to the presence of a rising bubble. When the bubble passes through the bed surface, the pressure near the bed surface gradually decreases to a lower value. Moreover, the pressure signals in the bubbling fluidized beds show obviously periodic characteristics. The major frequency of pressure fluctuations at the same vertical position is affected slightly by the operating gas velocity, and the amplitude of pressure fluctuations is related to both the operating gas velocity and the vertical height. In this study, the influence of the operating gas velocity on the pressure wave propagation velocity can be ignored, and only two peak frequencies in the power spectrum of the pressure fluctuations are observed which are associated with the bubble formation above the distributor and its eruption at the bed surface.
文摘We investigate experimentally how controlled freeplay nonlinearity affects harvesting energy from a wing-based piezoaeroelastic energy harvesting system. This system consisits of a rigid airfoil which is supported by a nonlinear torsional spring （freeplay） in the pitch degree of freedom and a linear fiexural spring in the plunge degree of freedom. By attaching a piezoelectric material （PSI-5A4E） to the plunge degree of freedom, we can convert aeroelastic vibrations to electrical energy. The focus of this study is placed on the effects of the freeplay nonlinearity gap on the behavior of the harvester in terms of cut-in speed and level of harvested power. Although the freeplay nonlinearity may result in subcritical Hopf bifurcations （catastrophic for real aircrafts）, harvesting energy at low wind speeds is beneficial for designing piezoaeroelastic systems. It is demonstrated that increasing the freeplay nonlinearity gap can decrease the cut-in speed through a subcritical instability and gives the possibility to harvest energy at low wind speeds. The results also demonstrate that an optimum value of the load resistance exists, at which the level of the harvested power is maximized.

文摘In this work, a two-dimensional fluid model has been employed to study the characteristics of Ar/O2 radio frequency（RF） inductively coupled plasma discharges. The emphasis of this work has been put on the influence of the external parameters（i.e., the RF power, the pressure, and the Ar/O2 gas ratio） on the plasma properties. The numerical results show that the RF power has a significant influence on the amplitude of the plasma density rather than on the spatial distribution.However, the pressure and the Ar/O2 gas ratio affect not only the amplitude of the plasma density, but also the spatial uniformity. Finally, the comparison between the simulation results and the experimental data has been made at different gas pressures and oxygen contents, and a good agreement has been achieved.

文摘More and more researchers have paid attention to Taylor-Couette flow whose axial dimension is much larger than other dimensions.However,featured by the limited axial length of the bearing,its flow field and convective heat transfer between the rotator and the stator are highly conglutinated with the leakage at the end of the clearance.An investigation was conducted on the flow field and convective heat transfer of small-scale Taylor-Couette flow induced by end leakage through means of numerical simulation and experimental measurement.The static pressure and temperature of the stator were captured by a micromanometer and a time-resolved infrared camera,respectively.Large Eddy Simulation(LES)was performed to reveal the instantaneous and mean flow field of the shearing flow.Results show that the flow field and convective heat transfer are tightly associated with the presence of end leakage.As approaching the end of the clearance,the flow is dominated by the axial flow induced by the end leakage,and then a series of Taylor vortices gradually distorts and tilts as moving downstream.Along the angular direction,the maximum and minimum static pressures take place near minimum clearance height,respectively.The static pressure along the angular direction and the axial velocity near the minimum clearance height as well as the Nusselt number increase with increases of the rotational Reynolds number and the eccentricity ratio while decreasing with an increase of the dimensionless clearance height.Both natural convection by buoyancy and forced convection by the shearing flow play a significant role in convective heat transfer.Compared with classic Taylor-Couette flow,the occurrence of leakage decreases the maximum static pressure while increasing the minimum static pressure.The formation and evolution of the Taylor vortex are dominated by the axial flow.

文摘Overpressure is a hot topic in the study of sedimentary basins. It is important in generation, maturation migration, and accumulation of hydrocarbon, but the effects of overpressure on rock frame have not been investigated. In this study, experiments were carried out to study the effects of overpressure on rock frame structures using five core samples from the Junggar basin, Northwest China. The deformations and velocities for the samples were measured at different effective pressures related to non-equilibrium compaction and fluid expansion overpressure mechanisms. The results show that the effect of overpressure on rock frames gradually increases when the effective pressure drops down to a certain value （called critical pressure）. Moreover, non-equilibrium compaction mechanism has more effects on rock frames than fluid expansion mechanism under the same effective pressure. Furthermore to study rock frame structural changes, we use Kuster and Toksoz＇s expressions to simulate the effective aspect ratios of inclusions a （penny shapes） for different effective pressures. The results show that the a decreases dramatically when the effective pressure decreases from the critical pressure. Changes of a can be interpreted as responses to the rock frame changes when grains conform one another by rotating and self-adjusting. However, different mechanisms of overpressure have different effects on rock frames. The rock frame can be affected more easily by overpressure in shallow regions generated by non-equilibrium compaction mechanism. Once this kind of rock frames are preserved after overpressure releases to a normal hydrostatic pressure, they can be identified by their specific rock frame characters. This method provides a new way to study overpressure release and fluid migration and accumulation.

文摘A 1 kW-class arcjet thruster was fired in a vacuum chamber at a pressure of 18 Pa. A gas mixture of H2 ： N2 = 2.8 ： 1.5 in volume at a total flow rate of 4.3 slm was used as the propellant with an input power fixed at 860 W. The time-dependent thrust, nozzle temperature and inlet pressure of the propellant were measured simultaneously. Results showed that with the increase in nozzle temperature the thrust decreased and various losses increased. The physical mechanisms involved in these effects are discussed.
文摘In this context,four specimens,i.e.(i)circumferentially notched cylindrical torsion(CNCT),(ii)circum-ferentially notched cylindrical direct tension(CNCDT),(iii)edge notch disc bend(ENDB)and(iv)three-point bend beam(3PBB),were utilized to measure the modesⅠandⅢfracture toughness values of gypsum.While the CNCT specimen provides pure modeⅢloading in a direct manner,this pure mode condition is indirectly produced by the ENDB specimen.The ENDB specimen provided lower KⅢc and a non-coplanar(i.e.twisted)fracture surface compared with the CNCT specimen,which showed a planar modeⅢfracture surface.The ENDB specimen is also employed for conducting pure modeⅠ(with different crack depths)and mixed modeⅠ/Ⅲtests.KIc value was independent of the notch depth,and it was consistent with the RILEM and ASTM standard methods.But the modeⅢfracture results were highly sensitive to the notch depth.While the fracture resistance against modeⅢwas significantly lower than that of modeⅠ,the greater work of fracture under modeⅢwas noticeable.
文摘The article aims to study the possible correlation between the presence and intensity of rainfall X- and T-radiation and low energy neutrons at one specific location in S[io Jos6 dos Campos, SP, Brazil. Monitoring of these parameters was carried out from end February to half of June 2013 just in Physics Department of ITA （Technological Institute of Aeronautics）. By correlating the data of measurements of intensity of X and ）,-radiations with the rainfall it has been found that this meteorological parameter had a significant influence on the background of these radiation profile. A possible reason for this fact is associated with the presence of radon gas in the environment that is dragged to the surface during the occurrences of local rainfall. In relation neutrons, it was possible to note that the rainfall has small influence on this parameter measures.
