Thus, broadband wide-angle impedance matching (WAIM) is imple-mented to promote two-dimensional (2D) wide scanning. For the isolated element, to radiate the wide-beam patterns approximat-ing to the cosine form, two identical slots backed on one sub-strate integrated cavity are excited by the feeding network con-sisting of a reactive splitter and two striplines connected with splitter output paths. For adjacent elements staggered with each other, with the metasurface superstrate, the even-mode cou-pling voltages on the reactive splitter are cancelled out, yielding reduced MC. With the suppression of MC and the compensa-tion of isolated element patterns, WAIM is realized to achieve 2D wide-angle beam steering up to ± 65° in E-plane, ± 45° in H-plane and ± 60° in D-plane from 4.9 GHz to 5.85 GHz.展开更多

However, the influences of splitter plates on the VIV and aerostatic performances are more complicated due to aerodynamic interference between highway and railway decks. To study the effects of splitter plates, wind tunnel experiments for measuring VIV and aerostatic forces of twin decks under two opposite flow directions were conducted, while the surrounding flow and wind pressure of static twin decks with and without splitter plates are numerically simulated. The results showed that the incoming flow direction affects the VIV response and aerostatic coefficients. The highway deck has poor vertical and torsional VIV, and the VIV region and amplitude are different under different directions. While the railway deck only has vertical VIV when located upstream. The splitter plates can impede the process of vortex generation, shedding and impinging at the gap between twin deck, and significantly reducing the surface fluctuating pressure coefficient, thus effectively suppressing the VIV of twin decks. While, the splitter plates hurt the upstream deck regarding static wind stability and have little effect on the downstream deck. The splitter plates of appropriate width are recommended to improve VIV performances in twin parallel bridges.展开更多

Based on this analysis, the principle of increasing pump head and efficiency are discussed. New results are obtained from the analysis of turbulence kinetic energy and relative velocity distribution： Firstly, unreasonable length or deviation design of the splitter blades may cause great turbulent fluctuation in impeller channel, which has a great effect on the stability of impeller outlet flow; Secondly, it is found that the occurrence of flow separation can be decreased or delayed with splitter blades from the analysis of blade loading; Thirdly, the effect of splitter blades on reforming the structure of ＂jet-wake＂ is explained from the relative velocity distribution at different flow cross-sections, which shows the flow process in the impeller.

PBS performance is usually measured by spectrophotometer after coating and cementing, but the measured result cannot represent the actual performance in practice because people usually change the incident angle in one plane (horizontal plane) and do not consider the other plane (vertical plane). Geometrical polarization rotation occurring at reduced F-number influences the measuring precision of s-polarization transmittance (Ts) and p-polarization reflectance (Rp). A more accurate and practical way to measure the performance of broadband, wide-angle PBS is presented in this paper.展开更多

Three different grid resolutions were employed in the verification and validation study of the adopted turbulence model. Various fluid characteristics such as Strouhal number, lift coefficient of the cylinder and the splitter with respect to various splitter lengths and different Reynolds numbers were investigated. It was revealed that the lift coefficient ratio of the splitter over the cylinder remains near 1.6 when the splitter length is 1.5—4 times the cylinder's diameter. Vortex shedding is strongly inhibited when the splitter length is greater than a critical value of around four times the cylinder's diameter. The phase difference of the lift coefficient on the upper and lower surface of the splitter varies between-30?and 30?. The maximal lift coefficients are reached when the splitter length is about 2 times the cylinder's diameter. Besides, the splitter length has little influence on the separation angle around the cylinder.展开更多

The unit cell of the beam splitter is composed of a metal pattern, a dielectric substrate, and a metallic ground. Each subarray structure of the device is composed of four unit cells, which are gradually rotated at 45°. The horizontal and vertical subarrays form a 4×4 gradient metasurface supercell.

文摘A novel ultra-broadband polarization splitter based on a dual-core photonic crystal fiber(DC-PCF)is designed.The full-vector finite element method and coupled-mode theory are employed to investigate the characteristics of the polarization splitter.According to the numerical results,a graphene-filled layer not only broadens the working bandwidth but also reduces the size of the polarization splitter.Furthermore,the fluorine-doped region and the germanium-doped region can broaden the bandwidth.Also,the 4.78 mm long polarization splitter can achieve an extinction ratio of-98.6 d B at a wavelength of 1550 nm.When extinction ratio is less than-20 d B,the range of the wavelength is 1027 nm-1723 nm with a bandwidth of 696 nm.Overall,the polarization splitter can be applied to all-optical network communication systems in the infrared and near-infrared wavelength range.
文摘The splitter is an important component of water-based cooling systems used to extract heat from computer boards.In the present study,the flow characteristics of a 16-splitter structure were numerically simulated and compared with experimental results to verify the reliability of the numerical simulation method.Accordingly,the concept of splitter structural coefficients was proposed.Based on the results of this study,we recommend a selection range of 5≤k≤6 for the structure factor k of the splitter;after optimization,the maximum deviation of the splitter outlet flow was reduced from the original value of 100%to 8.3%.

文摘Numerical research of flow past a circular cylinder with a splitter at the subcritical Reynolds number region of 5 × 10~4—9 × 10~4 was researched based on Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) through solving twodimensional incompressible unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes(URANS) equations with the shear stress transport(SST) k-ω turbulence model. Three different grid resolutions were employed in the verification and validation study of the adopted turbulence model. Various fluid characteristics such as Strouhal number, lift coefficient of the cylinder and the splitter with respect to various splitter lengths and different Reynolds numbers were investigated. It was revealed that the lift coefficient ratio of the splitter over the cylinder remains near 1.6 when the splitter length is 1.5—4 times the cylinder's diameter. Vortex shedding is strongly inhibited when the splitter length is greater than a critical value of around four times the cylinder's diameter. The phase difference of the lift coefficient on the upper and lower surface of the splitter varies between-30?and 30?. The maximal lift coefficients are reached when the splitter length is about 2 times the cylinder's diameter. Besides, the splitter length has little influence on the separation angle around the cylinder.

文摘A reflective beam splitter is proposed and verified. The unit cell of the beam splitter is composed of a metal pattern, a dielectric substrate, and a metallic ground. Each subarray structure of the device is composed of four unit cells, which are gradually rotated at 45°. The horizontal and vertical subarrays form a 4×4 gradient metasurface supercell. In the operating frequency band, the incident linearly polarized terahertz wave is reflected and divided into four beams of approximately equal power but different propagation directions. The proposed terahertz beam splitter based on metasurface has the advantages of small size, low cost and easy processing, and can be applied to terahertz stealth and imaging.
