Th...A new method for targeted heating of deep tissue was developed by using an ultrasound phased-array system which can generate various multiple loci patterns by electronically changing its amplitude or phase pattern. This method involves using a technique of combining switching and rotating of multiple foei patterns to create a uniform temperature over tissue volumes in various size. Using this method, the target tissue deep in the body can be heated to a specified temperature, which gives conditions for thermo-sensi- tive liposomes release. A simulation study for a 108-element, spherically sectioned array was performed to determine an optimal heating scheme from a set of multiple focus fields which were produced by inputting different combinations of phases and amplitudes. Comparisons of a static multiple foei field, the switched fields and the switched-rotated fields indicated that the technique of combining switching and rotating of multiple foei patterns has advantages of both lowering the peak temperature and evening the temperature distribution. The simulation results also show that the therapeutic heating zones in various size （ Φ5mm ～40mm） with uniform temperature distributions can be obtained employing the combined method. These results offer significant data for desisting thermotherapy equipment for tumor-specific drug release with thermo-sensitive liposomes.展开更多

Complete suppression of sawtooth is achieved for the duration of the ECRH, when the heating power is applied on the high-field side of low-density plasma, and exceeds a threshold value of power. The m = 1 bursts riding on the ramp phase of sawtooth can only be excited when the ECRH location is near the q = 1 surface on the high field side. The conditions under which the various relaxation activities are produced or suppressed are described. Experimental results imply that the energetic electrons generated during ECRH are responsible for the modification/or stabilization/or excitation of the instability. Near the q = 1 surface, the passing electrons play the role of reducing the shear and tending to stabilize the sawtooth activity, while the barely-trapped electrons play the role of enhancing or driving an internal kink instability.展开更多

The electron beam local post weld heat treatment (EBLPWHT) is a rather new heat treatment procedure that provides the advantages of high precision, flexibility and efficiency, energy saving and higher productivity. In this paper, the microstructure, mechanical properties, fracture toughness and fatigue properties of electron beam welded joints of 30CrMnSiNi2A steel in as-welded (AW) and EBLPWHT conditions have been investigated respectively. The results show that the microstructures of different zones of joints in as-welded condition are changed by EBLPWHT procedure, in which the welds from coarse needle martensite into lath-shaped martensite; the main structures of heat affected zones (HAZ) from lath-shaped martensite into lower bainite. The properties of welded joints can be improved by the EBLPWHT in some extent, especially the fracture toughness of the welds and the fatigue crack resistance of welded joints can be sufficiently improved. However, more appropriate heat treatment parameters of the EBLPWHT have to be studied in order to increase the mechanical properties of base metal near by the HAZ.展开更多

Combined withnumerical calculating results, the effects of different EBLPWHT mode and parameters, including heattreating position, heating width and heating time, on the distribution of welding residual stressesare analyzed. The results show that, the residual tensile stresses in weld center can be largelydecreased when the weld is heat treated at back preface of the plate. The numerical results alsoindicated that the magnitude of the residual longitudinal stresses of the weld and the zone vicinityof the weld is decreased, and the range of the residual longitudinal stresses is increased alongwith the increase of heating width and heating time.展开更多

With the employment of heating wire and induction heating unit,this device can carry out torsion strength test at high temperatures at the heating rate ranging from 10 ℃/min to 200 ℃/min.Torsion strength of high alumina brick,magnesia brick and Si3 N4 bonded SiC brick has been tested at different heating rates of 10 ℃/min,100 ℃/min and 200℃/min,separately. Results indicate that,for high alumina brick,the tested torsion strength at the heating rate of 10 ℃/min is very close to that at 100 ℃/min,but very different from that at 200 ℃/min. The tested torsion strength of magnesia brick at different heating rates differs greatly,while that of Si3 N4 bonded SiC brick is similar. This suggests that the structure of refractory materials with poor thermal shock resistance might be damaged when the heating rate of 200 ℃/min was applied,but the heating rate of 100 ℃/min is possible for a lot of refractory products. At fast heating rates,it takes only1 h to finish a test at elevated temperatures,thus saving a lot of time and energy.展开更多

Hence, the early diagnosis of ED can potentially lead to early interventions which could result in a better outcome for these patients. Several methodologies have been developed for the diagnosis of ED. Laser Doppler flowmetry(LDF) enables us to study the microcirculation continuously in a non-invasive manner. In our review we would like to focus on different tests developed for LDF, like postocclusive reactive hyperaemia,local heating, iontophoresis, microdialysis or analysis of flowmotion. We would also like to summarize the available data in CKD with these methodologies to enlighten their perspectives in the clinical use on this patient population.展开更多

The welding temperature field, the distributions of residual stresses in as-welded (AW) and electron beam local post-weld heat treatment (EBLPWHT) conditions have been successfully simulated. The results show that: (1) In the weld center, the maximum magnitude of residual tensile stresses of BT20 thin plates of Ti alloy is equal to 60%- 70% of its yield strength σs. (2) The residual tensile stresses in weld center can be even decreased after EBLPWHT and the longitudinal tensile stresses are decreased about 50% compared to joints in AW conditions. (3) The numerical calculating results of residual stresses by using FEM are basically in agreement with the experimental results. Combined with numerical calculating results, the effects of electron beam welding and EBLPWHT on the distribution of welding residual stresses in thin plates of BT20 have been analyzed in detail.展开更多

With electron beam as the non-melted heat source, previous experimental study performed on titanium alloys has proved the feasibility of TSCB. However, the thermal stress–strain process during bonding, which is of very important significance in revealing the mechanism of TSCB, was not analysed. In this paper, finite element analysis method is adopted to numerically study the thermal elasto-plastic stress–strain cycle of thermal self-compressing bonding. It is found that due to the localized heating, a non-uniform temperature distribution is formed during bonding, with the highest temperature existed on the bond interface. The expansion of high temperature materials adjacent to the bond interface are restrained by surrounding cool materials and rigid restraints, and thus an internal elasto-plastic stress–strain field is developed by itself which makes the bond interface subjected to thermal compressive action. This thermal self-compressing action combined with the high temperature on the bond interface promotes the atom diffusion across the bond interface to produce solid-state joints. Due to the relatively large plastic deformation, rigid restraint TSCB obtains sound joints in relatively short time compared to diffusion bonding.展开更多

Moreover, for the special case r = s = 1, lim t→T＊（T＊-t）^p＋1/pq-1u（x,t）=（p＋1）^1/pq-1（q＋1）^p/pq-1（pq-1）^-p＋1/pq-1, lim t→T＊（T＊-t）^q＋1/pq-1u（x,t）=（p＋1）^1/pq-1（q＋1）^p/pq-1（pq-1）^-p＋1/pq-1 are obtained uniformly on compact subsets of/2, where T＊ is the blow-up time.

文摘The distributions of temperature and residual stresses in thin plates of BT20titanium alloy are numerically analyzed by three-dimensional finite element software duringelectron beam welding and electron beam local post-weld heat treatment (EBLPWHT). Combined withnumerical calculating results, the effects of different EBLPWHT mode and parameters, including heattreating position, heating width and heating time, on the distribution of welding residual stressesare analyzed. The results show that, the residual tensile stresses in weld center can be largelydecreased when the weld is heat treated at back preface of the plate. The numerical results alsoindicated that the magnitude of the residual longitudinal stresses of the weld and the zone vicinityof the weld is decreased, and the range of the residual longitudinal stresses is increased alongwith the increase of heating width and heating time.
文摘Industry and energy continue to require piston engines(PICE)at a high level worldwide.Therefore,science and technology must urgently work on improving the PICE working cycle.Improving the quality of the intake process of theworking fluid into the cylinder is one of the most effective ways to improve the operational performance of PICE.The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of various cylinder head(CylH)designs on the gas-dynamic and heat-exchange qualities of air flows within an engine model’s intake system.Three different CylH designs were studied:the basic configuration and upgraded cylinder heads with a square valve and a square valve port.These designs are innovative.Laboratory conditions were used to conduct the studies for stationary air flow.The experiments covered the range of Reynolds numbers from 8500 to 96,000.The intake system’s gas dynamics and heat transfer were determined using the thermal anemometry method,which was based on constant-temperature hot-wire anemometers.It has been established that the use of upgraded CylHs causes an increase in the turbulence number of flow by an average of 13.5%.Additionally,itwas found that the increase in the turbulence number of flowin the cylinder is about 19%when installing new CylH designs.It was shown that therewas an increase in the heat transfer coefficient in the intake pipe by 10%–40%when installing modernized CylH designs in the intake system.The article focused on the problems of increasing the turbulence level and intensifying the heat transfer of stationary air flow in the intake system,specifically in PICEs.The study’s findings are novel in the areas of applied gas dynamics and PICEs.
文摘On basis of the subsection welding and the local heating s reasonable technological parameters obtained by plane experiment,the welding residual stress field of some Francis turbine runner is regulated and controlled.For the experimental plane with a thickness of 16 mm,the effect of subsection welding on decreasing welding residual stress of the prior welding section is obvious when the distance is less than 50 mm away from the end of latter welding section.For the local heating,the best position,where the effect on decreasing the welding residual stress of plane is best,is 60 mm or so away from the edge of heating area.The experimental results of runner show that the subsection welding can make the residual compressive stress engender in the blade dangerous area while the stress value is greatly influenced by the length of the welding section of blade outlet.The local heating can further decrease the value of residual stress near blade outlet,while the local heating processed after heat treatment is better than that processed before heat treatment.
文摘New apparatus for the determination of torsion strength of refractory materials at elevated temperatures has been developed in this work. With the employment of heating wire and induction heating unit,this device can carry out torsion strength test at high temperatures at the heating rate ranging from 10 ℃/min to 200 ℃/min.Torsion strength of high alumina brick,magnesia brick and Si3 N4 bonded SiC brick has been tested at different heating rates of 10 ℃/min,100 ℃/min and 200℃/min,separately. Results indicate that,for high alumina brick,the tested torsion strength at the heating rate of 10 ℃/min is very close to that at 100 ℃/min,but very different from that at 200 ℃/min. The tested torsion strength of magnesia brick at different heating rates differs greatly,while that of Si3 N4 bonded SiC brick is similar. This suggests that the structure of refractory materials with poor thermal shock resistance might be damaged when the heating rate of 200 ℃/min was applied,but the heating rate of 100 ℃/min is possible for a lot of refractory products. At fast heating rates,it takes only1 h to finish a test at elevated temperatures,thus saving a lot of time and energy.
文摘Cardiovascular diseases are the major causes of mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease(CKD).The complex process of accelerated athero- and arteriosclerosis in CKD is associated with this phenomenon,where endothelial dysfunction(ED) is one of the initial steps. Hence, the early diagnosis of ED can potentially lead to early interventions which could result in a better outcome for these patients. Several methodologies have been developed for the diagnosis of ED. Laser Doppler flowmetry(LDF) enables us to study the microcirculation continuously in a non-invasive manner. In our review we would like to focus on different tests developed for LDF, like postocclusive reactive hyperaemia,local heating, iontophoresis, microdialysis or analysis of flowmotion. We would also like to summarize the available data in CKD with these methodologies to enlighten their perspectives in the clinical use on this patient population.
文摘A three-dimensional finite-element model (FEM) used for calculating electron beam (EB) welding temperature and stresses fields of thin plates of BT20 titanium has been developed in which the nonlinear thermophysical and thermo-mechanical properties of the material has been considered. The welding temperature field, the distributions of residual stresses in as-welded (AW) and electron beam local post-weld heat treatment (EBLPWHT) conditions have been successfully simulated. The results show that: (1) In the weld center, the maximum magnitude of residual tensile stresses of BT20 thin plates of Ti alloy is equal to 60%- 70% of its yield strength σs. (2) The residual tensile stresses in weld center can be even decreased after EBLPWHT and the longitudinal tensile stresses are decreased about 50% compared to joints in AW conditions. (3) The numerical calculating results of residual stresses by using FEM are basically in agreement with the experimental results. Combined with numerical calculating results, the effects of electron beam welding and EBLPWHT on the distribution of welding residual stresses in thin plates of BT20 have been analyzed in detail.

文摘Thermal self-compressing bonding(TSCB) is a new solid-state bonding method pioneered by the authors. With electron beam as the non-melted heat source, previous experimental study performed on titanium alloys has proved the feasibility of TSCB. However, the thermal stress–strain process during bonding, which is of very important significance in revealing the mechanism of TSCB, was not analysed. In this paper, finite element analysis method is adopted to numerically study the thermal elasto-plastic stress–strain cycle of thermal self-compressing bonding. It is found that due to the localized heating, a non-uniform temperature distribution is formed during bonding, with the highest temperature existed on the bond interface. The expansion of high temperature materials adjacent to the bond interface are restrained by surrounding cool materials and rigid restraints, and thus an internal elasto-plastic stress–strain field is developed by itself which makes the bond interface subjected to thermal compressive action. This thermal self-compressing action combined with the high temperature on the bond interface promotes the atom diffusion across the bond interface to produce solid-state joints. Due to the relatively large plastic deformation, rigid restraint TSCB obtains sound joints in relatively short time compared to diffusion bonding.
