These equations were solved numerically with the finite differential method and the primitive variable approach. This method uses staggered grid and pressure correction schemes. A computer code FASTOR3D integrated the aforementioned algorithm. The preliminary results have been compared with conventional benchmark solutions. With auxiliary software DV, the numerical results were visualized in colorful images to demonstrate the variation of flow patterns and temperature profiles during the transient process. The results of the simulation code for the fluid flows and heat transfer in the sodium pool of a fast breeder reactor are acceptable.展开更多

The relationship between the local structure and the dynamics during the liquid-glass transition was deeply investigated. It was found that the Mg-centered FK polyhedron and the Zn-centered icosahedron play a critical role in the formation of Mg7Zn3 metallic glass. The self-diffusion coefficients of Mg and Zn atoms deviate from the Arrhenius law near the melting temperature and then satisfy the power law. According to the time correlation functions of mean-square displacement, incoherent intermediate scattering function and non-Gaussian parameter, it was found that the β-relaxation in Mg7Zn3 supercooled liquid becomes more and more evident with decreasing temperature, and the α-relaxation time rapidly increases in the VFT law. Moreover, the smaller Zn atom has a faster relaxation behavior than the Mg atom. Some local atomic structures with short-range order have lower mobility, and they play a critical role in the appearance of cage effect in theβ-relaxation regime. The dynamics deviates from the Arrhenius law just at the temperature as the number of local atomic structures begins to rapidly increase. The dynamic glass transition temperature （Tc） is close to the glass transition point in structure （TgStr）.展开更多

Finite element （FE） simulation can obtain the distribution of strain, strain rate, temperature and die filling status, which indicates state-of-stress （SOS） workability decided by die shape and different processing conditions. On the basis of this, a new material driven analysis method for hot deformation was put forward by the combination of FE simulation with 3D processing maps, which can demonstrate material workability of the entire hot deformation process including SOS workability and intrinsic workability. The hot forging process for hard-to-work metal magnesium alloy was studied, and the 3D thermomechanical FE simulation including 3D processing maps of complex hot forging spur bevel gear was first conducted. The hot forging experiments were carried out. The results show that the new method is reasonable and suitable to determine the aoorooriate nrocess narameters.展开更多

Our simulation results ...Single event transient of a real p-n junction in a 0.18μm bulk process is studied by 3D TCAD simulation. The impact of voltage, temperature, substrate concentration, and LET on SET is studied. Our simulation results demonstrate that biases in the range 1.62 to 1.98V influence DSET current shape greatly and total collected charge weakly. Peak current and charge collection within 2ns decreases as temperature increases,and temperature has a stronger influence on SET currents than on total charge. Typical variation of substrate concentration in modern VDSM processes has a negligible effect on SEEs. Both peak current and total collection charge increases as LET increases.展开更多

The developed models were integrated into 3D thermal-mechanical coupled rigid plastic finite element software DEFORM3D. The inhomogeneous hot deformation （IHD） experiments of SA508 3 steel were designed and carried out. Meanwhile, numerical simulation was implemented to investigate the effect of temperature, strain and strain rate on microstructure during IHD process through measuring grain sizes at given positions. The simulated grain sizes were basically in agreement with the experimental ones. The results of experiment and simulation demonstrated that temperature is the main factor for the initiation of dynamic recrystallization （DRX）, and higher temperature means lower critical strain so that DRX can be facilitated to obtain uniform fine microstructure.展开更多

Based on this method, the 3D-microstructure of 9SMn28 free-cutting steel was simulated in solidification processes and the simulation results are consistent with the experimental ones. In addition, the effects of Gaussian distribution parameters were also studied. The simulation results show that the higher the mean undercooling, the larger the columnar dendrite zones, and the larger the maximum nucleation density, the smaller the size of grains. The larger the standard deviation, the less the number of minimum grains is. However, the uniformity degree decreases first, and then increases gradually.展开更多

文摘Neutron well logging,using instruments equipped with neutron source and detectors(e.g.,^(3)He-tubes,Nal,BGO),plays a key role in lithological differentiation,porosity determination,and fluid property evaluation in the petroleum industry.The growing trend of multifu nctional neutron well logging,which enables simultaneous extraction of multiple reservoir characteristics,requiring high-performance detectors capable of withstanding high-temperature downhole conditions,limited space,and instrument vibrations,while also detecting multiple particle types.The Cs_(2)LiYCl_(6):Ce^(3+)(CLYC)elpasolite scintillator demonstrates excellent temperature resistance and detection efficiency,making it become a promising candidate for leading the development of the novel neutron-based double-particle logging technology.This study employed Monte Carlo simulations to generate equivalent gamma spectra and proposed a pulse shape discrimination simulation method based on theoretical analysis and probabilistic iteration.The performance of CLYC was compared to that of common detectors in terms of physical properties and detection efficiency.A double-particle pulsed neutron detection system for porosity determination was established,based on the count ratio of equivalent gamma rays from the range of 2.95-3.42 MeVee energy bins.Results showed that CLYC can effectively replace ^(3)He-tubes for porosity measurement,providing consistent responses.This study offers numerical simulation support for the design of future neutron well logging tools and the application of double-particle detectors in logging systems.
文摘Upon the conservation of mass, momentum and energy, volume fraction and surface penetrative rate were employed to modify the conservative equations to simulate the effect of blockages on fluid flows and heat transfer. These equations were solved numerically with the finite differential method and the primitive variable approach. This method uses staggered grid and pressure correction schemes. A computer code FASTOR3D integrated the aforementioned algorithm. The preliminary results have been compared with conventional benchmark solutions. With auxiliary software DV, the numerical results were visualized in colorful images to demonstrate the variation of flow patterns and temperature profiles during the transient process. The results of the simulation code for the fluid flows and heat transfer in the sodium pool of a fast breeder reactor are acceptable.

文摘The rapid solidification process of Mg7Zn3 alloy was simulated by the molecular dynamics method. The relationship between the local structure and the dynamics during the liquid-glass transition was deeply investigated. It was found that the Mg-centered FK polyhedron and the Zn-centered icosahedron play a critical role in the formation of Mg7Zn3 metallic glass. The self-diffusion coefficients of Mg and Zn atoms deviate from the Arrhenius law near the melting temperature and then satisfy the power law. According to the time correlation functions of mean-square displacement, incoherent intermediate scattering function and non-Gaussian parameter, it was found that the β-relaxation in Mg7Zn3 supercooled liquid becomes more and more evident with decreasing temperature, and the α-relaxation time rapidly increases in the VFT law. Moreover, the smaller Zn atom has a faster relaxation behavior than the Mg atom. Some local atomic structures with short-range order have lower mobility, and they play a critical role in the appearance of cage effect in theβ-relaxation regime. The dynamics deviates from the Arrhenius law just at the temperature as the number of local atomic structures begins to rapidly increase. The dynamic glass transition temperature （Tc） is close to the glass transition point in structure （TgStr）.

文摘The three-dimensional （3D） processing maps considering strain based on the two-dimensional （2D） processing maps proposed by PRASAD can describe the distribution of the efficiency of power dissipation and flow instability regions at various temperatures, strain rates and strains, which exhibit intrinsic workability related to material itself. Finite element （FE） simulation can obtain the distribution of strain, strain rate, temperature and die filling status, which indicates state-of-stress （SOS） workability decided by die shape and different processing conditions. On the basis of this, a new material driven analysis method for hot deformation was put forward by the combination of FE simulation with 3D processing maps, which can demonstrate material workability of the entire hot deformation process including SOS workability and intrinsic workability. The hot forging process for hard-to-work metal magnesium alloy was studied, and the 3D thermomechanical FE simulation including 3D processing maps of complex hot forging spur bevel gear was first conducted. The hot forging experiments were carried out. The results show that the new method is reasonable and suitable to determine the aoorooriate nrocess narameters.
文摘An SOI MOSFET with FINFET structure is simulated using a 3 D simulator. I V characteristics and sub threshold characteristics,as well as the short channel effect(SCE) are carefully investigated.SCE can be well controlled by reducing fin height.Good performance can be achieved with thin height,so fin height is considered as a key parameter in device design.Simulation results show that FINFETs present performance superior to conventional single gate devices.
文摘Single event transient of a real p-n junction in a 0.18μm bulk process is studied by 3D TCAD simulation. The impact of voltage, temperature, substrate concentration, and LET on SET is studied. Our simulation results demonstrate that biases in the range 1.62 to 1.98V influence DSET current shape greatly and total collected charge weakly. Peak current and charge collection within 2ns decreases as temperature increases,and temperature has a stronger influence on SET currents than on total charge. Typical variation of substrate concentration in modern VDSM processes has a negligible effect on SEEs. Both peak current and total collection charge increases as LET increases.

文摘Based on hot compression tests by a Gleeble-1500D thermo-mechanical simulator, the flow stress model and microstructure evolution model for SA508-3 steel were established through the classical theories on work hardening and softening. The developed models were integrated into 3D thermal-mechanical coupled rigid plastic finite element software DEFORM3D. The inhomogeneous hot deformation （IHD） experiments of SA508 3 steel were designed and carried out. Meanwhile, numerical simulation was implemented to investigate the effect of temperature, strain and strain rate on microstructure during IHD process through measuring grain sizes at given positions. The simulated grain sizes were basically in agreement with the experimental ones. The results of experiment and simulation demonstrated that temperature is the main factor for the initiation of dynamic recrystallization （DRX）, and higher temperature means lower critical strain so that DRX can be facilitated to obtain uniform fine microstructure.

文摘It was analyzed that the finite element-cellular automaton （CAFE） method was used to simulate 3D-microstructures in solidification processes. Based on this method, the 3D-microstructure of 9SMn28 free-cutting steel was simulated in solidification processes and the simulation results are consistent with the experimental ones. In addition, the effects of Gaussian distribution parameters were also studied. The simulation results show that the higher the mean undercooling, the larger the columnar dendrite zones, and the larger the maximum nucleation density, the smaller the size of grains. The larger the standard deviation, the less the number of minimum grains is. However, the uniformity degree decreases first, and then increases gradually.

文摘The standard three dimensional（3D） k-ε turbulence model was applied to simulate the flow field of a small scale combined oxidation ditch. The moving mesh approach was used to model the rotor of the ditch. Comparison of the computed and the measured data is acceptable. A vertical reverse flow zone in the ditch was found, and it played a very important role in the ditch flow behavior. The flow pattern in the ditch is discussed in detail, and approaches are suggested to improve the hydrodynamic performance in the ditch.

文摘The LaBr3(Ce)detector has attracted much attention in recent years because of its superior characteristics compared with other scintillating materials in terms of resolution and efficiency.However,it has a relatively high intrinsic background radiation because of the naturally occurring radioisotopes in lanthanum,actinium,and their daughter nuclei.This limits its applications in low-counting rate experiments.In this study,we identified the radioactive isotopes in theφ3"x 3"Saint-Gobain B380 detector by a coincidence measurement using a Clover detector in a low-background shielding system.Moreover,we carried out a Geant4 simulation of the experimental spectra to evaluate the activities of the main internal radiation components.The total activity of the background radiation of B380 is determined to be 1.523(34)Bq/cm^3.The main sources include 138La at 1.428(34)Bq/cm^3,207Tl at 0.0135(13)Bq/cm^3,211Bi at 0.0136(15)Bq/cm^3,215Po at 0.0135(3)Bq/cm^3,219Rn at 0.0125(12)Bq/cm^3,223Fr at 0.0019(11)Bq/cm^3,223Ra at 0.0127(10)Bq/cm^3,227Th at 0.0158(22)Bq/cm^3,and 227Ac at 0.0135(13)Bq/cm^3.Of these,the activities of 207Tl,211Po,215Po,223Fr,and 227Ac are deduced for the first time from the secular equilibrium established in the decay chain of 227Ac.
文摘Historical simulations of annual mean surface air temperature over China with 25 CMIP5 models were assessed.The observational data from CRUT3v and CN05 were used and further compared with historical simulations of CMIP3.The results show that CMIP5 models were able to simulate the observed warming over China from 1906 to 2005(0.84 C per 100 years)with a warming rate of 0.77 C per 100 years based on the multi-model ensemble(MME).The simulations of surface air temperature in the late 20th century were much better than those in the early 20th century,when only two models could reproduce the extreme warming in the 1940s.The simulations for the spatial distribution of the 20-yearmean(1986–2005)surface air temperature over China fit relatively well with the observations.However,underestimations in surface air temperature climatology were still found almost all over China,and the largest cold bias and simulation uncertainty were found in western China.On sub-regional scale,northern China experienced stronger warming than southern China during 1961–1999,for which the CMIP5 MME provided better simulations.With CMIP5 the diference of warming trends in northern and southern China was underestimated.In general,the CMIP5 simulations are obviously improved in comparison with the CMIP3 simulations in terms of the variation in regional mean surface air temperature,the spatial distribution of surface air temperature climatology and the linear trends in surface air temperature all over China.
