A two-dimensional inviscid solver applies finite volume method and unstructured quadrilateral grids were employed to simulate the flow. Theoretical analysis was also conducted to understand the phenomenon. Both numerical and theoretical results indicate a wall-jet penetrating forward is responsible for the occurrence of Mach stem protrusion. The protrusion degree seems to depend on the thermal energy buffer capacity of the testing gas. Approaches to increase the energy buffer capacity, such as vibrational relaxation, molecular dissociation, and increase of frozen heat caoacitv, all tend to escalate the orotrusion effect.展开更多

However, its complex synthesis method, use of toxic gases, and serious effects on supported noble metals catalyst during hightemperature sintering processes have seriously affected its hydrogen evolution reaction(HER) activity and stability. Here, we report an efficient strategy for synthesizing Mo_(2)N using the high temperature shock(HTS) method in just 1.67 s, while also uniformly loading Ru onto Mo_(2)N nanosheets. The HTS enables the homogeneous dispersion of the noble metal Ru, leading to an increased electrocatalytic activity,along with a strong charge transfer between Mo_(2)N and Ru. Ru/Mo2N exhibited an overpotential of 66 m V at 10 m A/cm^(2)in 1 mol/L KOH. In the evaluation of catalytic activity, Ru/Mo_(2)N demonstrates superiority over commercial Pt/C catalysts in terms of mass activity(1.71 A/mg Ru vs. 0.91 A/mg Pt at 200 m V) and turnover frequency(1.41 s^(-1)vs. 0.18 s^(-1)at 100 m V). This result provides a rational and effective pathway for the preparation of efficient electrocatalysts.展开更多

The shock wave experiments were carried out at pressure range between 11 and 42 GPa. Shock data on olivine sample yielded a linear relationship between shock wave velocity D and particle velocity u described by D=3.56(?0.13)+2.57(?0.12)u. The shock temperature is determined by an energy relationship which is approximately 790°C at pressure 28 GPa. Due to low temperature and short experimental duration, we suggest that no phase change occurred in our sample below 30 GPa and olivine persisted well beyond its equilibrium boundary in metastable phase. The densities of metastable olivine are in agreement with the results of static compression. At the depth shallower than 410 km, the densities of metastable olivine are higher than those of the PREM model, facilitating cold slab to sink into the mantle transition zone. However, in entire mantle transition zone, the shock densities are lower than those of the PREM model, hampering cold slab to flow across the "660 km" phase boundary.展开更多

文摘Large olivine samples were hot-pressed synthesized for shock wave experiments. The shock wave experiments were carried out at pressure range between 11 and 42 GPa. Shock data on olivine sample yielded a linear relationship between shock wave velocity D and particle velocity u described by D=3.56(?0.13)+2.57(?0.12)u. The shock temperature is determined by an energy relationship which is approximately 790°C at pressure 28 GPa. Due to low temperature and short experimental duration, we suggest that no phase change occurred in our sample below 30 GPa and olivine persisted well beyond its equilibrium boundary in metastable phase. The densities of metastable olivine are in agreement with the results of static compression. At the depth shallower than 410 km, the densities of metastable olivine are higher than those of the PREM model, facilitating cold slab to sink into the mantle transition zone. However, in entire mantle transition zone, the shock densities are lower than those of the PREM model, hampering cold slab to flow across the "660 km" phase boundary.
