Combustion of MSW with high nitrogen content is successfully conducted in a lab-scale vortexing fluidized-bed incinerator （VFBI）. Pigskin with 16.5 wt.% nitrogen content was used to simulate the high nitrogen content kitchen waste, and silica sand was used as the bed material. The effects of operating conditions, such as the bed temperature, freeboard temperature, excess oxygen ratio, and static bed height on the CO and NO concentrations at the exit of combustor and cyclone were investigated. The experimental results show that the freeboard temperature is the most important factor for CO emission. The order of operating conditions impact on the NO emission is： （1） excess oxygen ratio; （2） bed temperature; （3） freeboard temperature; and （4） static bed height. Utilizing cyclone can significantly reduce the CO emission concentration when the CO concentration released from the freeboard is higher than 50 ppm. On the other hand, the cyclone has no significant effect on the NO emission. Despite having high nitrogen content, a low conversion from fuel-N to NO was attained. Compared with other types of combustors, VFBI reduces the CO and NO emission concentrations much better when burning MSW with high nitrogen content.展开更多

The fluidized bed incinerator was constructed of 6 mm stainless steel with 0.45 m in diameter and 5 m in height. The emission characteristics of CO, NO, and SO2 were studied. The effects of operating parameters, such as primary air flow rate, secondary air flow rate, and excess air ratio on the pollutant emissions were also investigated. The results show that a large proportion of combustion occurs at the bed surface and the freeboard zone. The SO2 concentration in the flue gas decreases with increasing excess air ratio, while the NOx concentration shows reverse trend. The flow rate of secondary air has a significant impact on the CO emission. For a fixed primary air flowrate, CO emission decreases with the secondary air flowrate. For a fixed excess air ratio, CO emission decreases with the ratio of secondary to primary air flow. The minimum CO emission of 72 ppm is attained at the operating condition of 40% excess air ratio and 0.6 partition air ratio. The NOx and SO2 concentrations in the flue gas at this condition are 159 and 36 ppm, which conform to the EPA regulation of Taiwan.展开更多

The effect of noncanonical strength, off-axis distance and vortex sign on spatial correlation singularities in far field is stressed. Furthermore, far-field OAM spectra and densities are also investigated, and the OAM detection and crosstalk probabilities are discussed. The results show that the number of dislocations of SCS always equals the sum of absolute values of topological charges for canonical or noncanonical vortex pairs. Although the sum of the product of each OAM mode and its power weight equals the algebraic sum of topological charges for canonical vortex pairs, the relationship no longer holds in the noncanonical case except for opposite-charge vortex pairs. The changes of off-axis distance, noncanonical strength or coherence length can lead to a more dominant power in adjacent mode than that in center detection mode, which also indicates that crosstalk probabilities of adjacent modes exceed the center detection probability. This work may provide potential applications in OAM-based optical communication, imaging, sensing and computing.展开更多

文摘This paper proposes a passive control method to reduce peak values of slipstream and turbulent kinetic energy in a high-speed train wake by attaching vortex generators(VGs)onto the upper surface of the tail car.The impact of the VGs is assessed through the improved delayed detached eddy simulations(IDDES)after validating predictions against previous experimental measurements and other numerical predictions for the base case.The simulations indicate that strategically installed VGs can reduce the average slipstream velocity(U slipstream)and the upper limit of slipstream velocity(U_(slipstream,max))by~17%and~15%,respectively,as well as moving the peaks downstream by approximately train height,thus reducing the danger posed by slipstream to waiting passengers and trackside workers.Analysis shows that the wake turbulent kinetic energy diminishes as the vortex generators decelerate the downwash flow and reduce shear production in the wake.It is also found that the presence of VGs significantly impacts the flow on the upper surface near the tail by modifying the unsteady trailing longitudinal vortices through the formation of additional counter-rotating longitudinal vortices from the VGs.These latter vortices prevent the merging of vortical airflow around the trailing nose tip,which is otherwise induced by the longitudinal vortex of the train.They also reduce vortex intensity through cross-annihilation and cross diffusion as the wake advects downstream,limiting outwards advection through interaction with the image pair,and contributing to a decrease in the peak slipstream value.The method proposed offers a simple approach to wake control leading to significant slipstream benefits.

文摘This paper examines a model that combines vortex generators and leading-edge tubercles for controlling the laminar separation bubble(LSB)over an airfoil at low Reynolds numbers(Re).This new concept of passive flow control technique utilizing a tubercle and vortex generator(VG)close to the leading edge was analyzed numerically for a NACA0015 airfoil.In this study,the Shear Stress Transport(SST)turbulence model was employed in the numerical modelling.Numerical modelling was completed using the ANSYS-Fluent 18.2 solver.Analyses were conducted to investigate the flow pattern and understand the underlying LSB control phenomena that enabled the new passive flow control method to provide this significant performance benefit.The findings indicated that the new concept of passive flow control technique suppressed the formation of an LSB at the suction surface of the NACA0015 airfoil,resulting in a higher lift coefficient and improved aerodynamic performance.Improvements in LSB dynamics and aerodynamic performance through the passive flow control method lead to increased energy output and enhanced stability.

文摘This study presents a comprehensive analysis of 132 tornadic events in northeastern China from 2004 to 2023,utilizing radar and ERA5 reanalysis data to investigate the climatology,environmental drivers,and synoptic linkages with Northeast China cold vortices(NCCVs)of tornadic storms under different convective modes.Results reveal that discrete storms account for 70%of events,with clustered cells(CC)being the most frequent mode,while significant tornadoes(EF2+)are primarily associated with isolated cells(IC)and broken lines(BL).The storm mode distribution in northeastern China resembles that of the central United States but with a higher proportion of CC and lower IC.In contrast,southern China exhibits a higher frequency of quasi-linear(QL)modes(>50%),similar to European patterns.Although no single parameter clearly differentiates between all tornado modes,distinct morphological characteristics emerge through specific parameter combinations:NL modes are characterized by high 0-1 km storm-relative helicity(SRH1)and humidity but low 0-6 km shear(SR6),whereas IC modes display contrasting features with low SRH1 and high CAPE.Notably,83%of tornadoes are associated with NCCVs,preferentially forming in southeastern/southwestern quadrants.Strong tornadoes favor southeastern quadrants,while NCCV intensity correlates with tornadic distance from vortex centers.Three characteristic synoptic configurations emerge:(T1)strong deep vortices with vertically aligned cold troughs,generating southeast-dominant tornado clusters characterized by a high proportion of BL and QL modes;(T2)weaker vortices featuring sub-synoptic troughs,with southern-distributed events dominated by a predominance of the CC mode;(T3)transverse-trough systems exhibiting CAPE-SRH decoupling and reduced tornadic activity.This study enhances our understanding of tornadoes in northeastern China,informing future research on formation mechanisms,prediction methods,and disaster prevention strategies.

文摘In bio-inspired flapping-wing flight,lift generation and flexible deformation are intrinsically coupled.Thus,an experimental study is conducted to reveal the fluid-structure interaction mechanism for a flexible plate undergoing pitching and plunging motion,and theoretical models are proposed to predict either lift or deformation based on a series of simplifying assumptions.It is indicated that flexible plates can effectively reduce the amplitude of lift and pitching moment coefficients during dynamic stall,with increased flexibility leading to higher load reduction.To investigate the effect of plate flexibility on lift,a definition of effective angle of attack is proposed,incorporating the pitching and plunging motion and chordwise deformation of the flexible plate,which can reduce the hysteresis effect of the lift coefficient during dynamic stall.As a consequence,a theoretical model is developed to predict lift based on observed motion and deformation.On the other hand,another theoretical model is developed to predict flexible-plate deformation utilizing aerodynamic forces,revealing the effect of leading-edge vortex evolution on passive deformation.The influence of kinematic parameters,including the maximum effective angle of attack,reduced frequency,and Strouhal number,on the aerodynamic forces is further studied.Compared with the rigid plate,flexible plates exhibit lower sensitivity of aerodynamic forces to changes in kinematic parameters due to their inherent compliance and resulting deformation.The proposed theoretical models can serve as a reference for aerodynamic and deformation prediction in bio-inspired flexible structures.
文摘Characterized by high accuracy and operational simplicity,oil-film interferometry(OFI)has served as an effective wall-shear stress(WSS)measurement technique over the past decades.It utilizes the monochromatic light interference principle to measure the temporal variation of oil-film thickness caused by WSS,and calculates time-averaged WSS based on the variation of interference fringe width.However,small-scale noise,which is caused by defects on the target surface,ambient dust,and local oil-film non-uniformity,contaminates the interference fringe patterns and directly increases the measurement uncertainty.One practical way is to apply denoising methods to improve the accuracy of identifying the centroids of fringes.In the present study,quasi-bivariate variational mode decomposition(QBVMD)is proposed as a self-adaptive denoising method to remove small-scale noise.Since no characteristic information of fringe patterns is required in the QBVMD-based denoising method,it has higher accuracy and lower uncertainty than the conventional OFI denoising methods,which need to pre-set the mask signal or the bandpass frequency,i.e.,cross-correlation or spectral filtering.Thus,it facilitates the automatic identification of time-varying inhomogeneous fringes.Two sets of experiments,i.e.,WSS measurement on either a canonical flat-plate turbulent boundary layer(TBL)or a TBL perturbed by micro vortex generators(MVG),were conducted to validate the applicability of this QBVMD-OFI method.The former experiment shows that the accuracy of QBVMD-OFI is equivalent to near-wall high-resolution particle image velocimetry,and is considerably higher than that of a dual hot-film sensor.As for the latter,QBVMD-OFI provides sufficient spatial resolution to resolve fine WSS structures generated by MVG.
文摘By introducing noncanonical vortex pairs to partially coherent beams, spatial correlation singularity (SCS) and orbital angular momenta (OAM) of the resulting beams are studied using the Fraunhofer diffraction integral. The effect of noncanonical strength, off-axis distance and vortex sign on spatial correlation singularities in far field is stressed. Furthermore, far-field OAM spectra and densities are also investigated, and the OAM detection and crosstalk probabilities are discussed. The results show that the number of dislocations of SCS always equals the sum of absolute values of topological charges for canonical or noncanonical vortex pairs. Although the sum of the product of each OAM mode and its power weight equals the algebraic sum of topological charges for canonical vortex pairs, the relationship no longer holds in the noncanonical case except for opposite-charge vortex pairs. The changes of off-axis distance, noncanonical strength or coherence length can lead to a more dominant power in adjacent mode than that in center detection mode, which also indicates that crosstalk probabilities of adjacent modes exceed the center detection probability. This work may provide potential applications in OAM-based optical communication, imaging, sensing and computing.

文摘This study investigates extreme rainfall episodes along the eastern foothills of the Taihang Mountains in North China from 30 July to 1 August 2023.It focuses on two types of extreme hourly rainfall rates(HRRs),i.e.,the maximum regionalaverage HRR and site-observed HRR,which exhibited sequential development over southern,middle,and northern key regions.These rainfall extremes occurred in an environment where a high-pressure barrier over North China prevented the intrusion of cold air masses from the north while a northward-moving typhoon remnant vortex and its associated low-level jet(LLJ)transported warm and moist airflow from the south.Two distinct echo evolution modes and convection initiation mechanisms are identified for the two types of extreme HRRs.The maximum regional-average HRR occurred when the LLJ arrived to the east of the key regions,while the maximum site-observed HRR occurred when the warmer vortex center influenced the regions.Taking the northern key region as a representation,at the time of the maximum regional-average HRR,slantwise ascent of the airflow along a warm-frontal-like boundary released energy related to symmetrical instability,resulting in stratiform rainfall with weak convective cores.The transport of locally initiated convection over the eastern plain region,where the atmospheric stratification was more potentially unstable,also significantly contributed.When the maximum site-observed HRR occurred,the terrain lifting of warm and moist southeast airflow led to intense convection over the mountain foothills.Overall,the passage of the warm-core typhoon remnant vortex and interaction with Taihang Mountains determined the timing and location of extreme HRRs across the key regions.

文摘In order to examine the flow state of the steel-slag interface in a thin slab mold at high casting speed,a flexible thin slab casting mold and a novel five-hole nozzle were investigated.The maximum velocity and fluctuation height of the steel-slag interface in the mold served as the evaluation criteria.Numerical simulation techniques,including large eddy simulation and volume of fluid,were employed to develop a two-phase flow model of liquid steel and slag.This model facilitated the analysis of the fluctuation behavior of the steel-slag interface and the mechanisms of slag entrapment.The results indicated that maintaining the stability of the steel-slag interface could be achieved by ensuring that the maximum velocity did not exceed 0.30 m s^(-1)or that the wave height remained below 30 mm.The relationship between the maximum velocity and wave height of the steel-slag interface was established by analyzing different casting speeds.Slag entrapment occurred when the maximum velocity exceeded the critical value.The critical velocity for shear slag entrapment was 0.485 m s^(-1),while for vortex slag entrapment,it was when the velocity of the swirl center reached 0.235 m s^(-1).Electromagnetic braking proved effective in controlling flow in the mold,reducing fluctuations in the steel-slag interface,preventing slag entrapment,and maintaining the position of the interface.Furthermore,it facilitated the control of the uniformity and stability of slag movement along the outer wall of the submerged entry nozzle and the copper wall of the mold.

文摘In recent years,train-tail swaying of 160 km/h electric multiple units(EMUs)inside single-line tunnels has been heavily researched,because the issue needs to be solved urgently.In this paper,a co-simulation model of vortex-induced vibration(VIV)of the tail car body is established,and the aerodynamics of train-tail swaying is studied.The simulation results were confirmed through a field test of operating EMUs.Furthermore,the influence mechanism of train-tail swaying on the wake flow field is studied in detail through a wind-tunnel experiment and a simulation of a reduced-scaled train model.The results demonstrate that the aerodynamic force frequency(i.e.,vortex-induced frequency)of the train tail increases linearly with train speed.When the train runs at 130 km/h,with a small amplitude of train-tail swaying(within 10 mm),the vortex-induced frequency is 1.7 Hz,which primarily depends on the nose shape of the train tail.After the tail car body nose is extended,the vortex-induced frequency is decreased.As the swaying amplitude of the train tail increases(exceeding 25 mm),the separation point of the high-intensity vortex in the train wake shifts downstream to the nose tip,and the vortex-induced frequency shifts from 1.7 Hz to the nearby car body hunting(i.e.,the primary hunting)frequency of 1.3 Hz,which leads to the frequency-locking phenomenon of VIV,and the resonance intensifies train-tail swaying.For the motor vehicle of the train tail,optimization of the yaw damper to improve its primary hunting stability can effectively alleviate train-tail swaying inside single-line tunnels.Optimization of the tail car body nose shape reduces the amplitude of the vortex-induced force,thereby weakening the aerodynamic effect and solving the problem of train-tail swaying inside the single-line tunnels.

文摘The generation of optical vortices from nonlinear photonic crystals(NPCs)with spatially modulated second-order nonlinearity offers a promising approach to extend the working wavelength and topological charge of vortex beams for various applications.In this work,the second harmonic(SH)optical vortex beams generated from nonlinear fork gratings under Gaussian beam illumination are numerically investigated.The far-field intensity and phase distributions,as well as the orbital angular momentum(OAM)spectra of the SH beams,are analyzed for different structural topological charges and diffraction orders.Results reveal that higher-order diffraction and larger structural topological charges lead to angular interference patterns and non-uniform intensity distributions,deviating from the standard vortex profile.To optimize the SH vortex quality,the effects of the fundamental wave beam waist,crystal thickness,and grating duty cycle are explored.It is shown that increasing the beam waist can effectively suppress diffraction order interference and improve the beam’s quality.This study provides theoretical guidance for enhancing the performance of nonlinear optical devices based on NPCs.

文摘In mid-April 2025,northern and central-eastern China experienced a catastrophic compound disaster marked by Beaufort 8 or greater wind gusts affecting∼3.5×10^(6)km^(2),exposing∼610 million residents to extreme conditions,with Typhoon-equivalent Beaufort 12 gusts battering Beijing’s Yanshan Mountains and Beaufort 14-15 winds devastating Inner Mongolia.This unprecedented event surpassed historical extremes at 64 weather stations,impacting 996 monitoring sites with winds exceeding the 99th percentile,including 478 stations recording historic top-three maxima.Concurrently,sandstorms engulfed∼4.3×10^(6)km^(2),reaching 18°N,while Hulunbuir faced a 1.5-m snowpack-a 30-year April record.Cascading infrastructure failures resulted in 1884 uprooted trees,approximately¥16.6 million in urban damages(in Beijing),and the collapse of utility-scale photovoltaic systems across northern China and the Huang-Huai region,exacerbating the multi-faceted crisis.A brief analysis indicates the event was primarily driven by a vertically coupled cyclone system featuring a cold vortex at the middle and upper troposphere dynamically aligned with a lower-level cyclone/mesoscale vortex.The intense,deeply coupled cyclone system sustained the wind intensification primarily through its enhanced pressure gradient force and subsidence-induced downward transport of kinetic energy(KE)behind the cyclone’s core.Clarifying the controlling synoptic-scale weather systems and dominant physical mechanisms governing such extreme wind generation is critical for refining predictive models of these high-impact events while advancing the understanding of dynamic interactions within extreme wind regimes.

文摘Pairs of entangled vortex photons can promise new prospects of application in quantum computing and cryptography.We investigate the possibility of generating such states via two-level atom emission induced by a single photon wave packet with a definite total angular momentum(TAM).The entangled pair produced in this process possesses well-defined mean TAM with the TAM variation being much smaller than h.On top of that,the variation exponentially decreases with the increase in TAM of the incident photon.Our model allows one to track the time evolution of the state of the entangled pair.An experimentally feasible scenario is assumed,in which the incident photon interacts with a spatially confined atomic target.We conclude that induced emission can be used as a source of entangled vortex photons with applications in atomic physics experiments,quantum optics,and quantum information sciences.

文摘To delay the vortex breakdown position of the slender delta wing,this study innovativelyproposes the application of control near the Leading-Edge Vortex(LEV)core sweeping path,whichis called Coupled Core Rotation Dual Synthetic Jets(CCR-DSJ)control.The results show that thevortex breakdown points at each angle of attack are moved backward after control,and the max-imum delayed displacement is 32.4%of the root chord at 30°.Besides,there is a linear relationshipbetween the breakdown position and the angle of attack after control,indicating that CCR-DSJcontrol has a significant effect on the pressure gradient of the vortex axis.Furthermore,the lift coef-ficient C_(L)is enhanced after control,with a maximum CLincrement of 0.078 at 27°,and an effectiveincrement interval of[25°,32°].This interval is different from most previous studies,which isdirectly related to the position of the actuators.According to the lift change mechanism,the anglesof attack are divided into three stages:Stage 1(a=15°–25°),Stage 2(a=25°–32°),and Stage 3(a=32°–40°).In conclusion,CCR-DSJ control can significantly change the pressure distribution,thereby offering promising prospects for the flight stage of the slender delta wing.

文摘The vortex dynamics after the initial ring dark solitons in two-component ultracold Rydberg atomic systems have been investigated.The two parameters characterizing the Rydberg long-range interaction—namely,the Rydberg strength and the blockade radius—along with the initial depth,are identified as the main factors that affect the vortex dynamics.In the absence of Rydberg soft-core potential and spin-orbit coupling,the late vortex dipoles move along x-or y-axis first.However,this work demonstrates that,with certain Rydberg strength and blockade radius,the late vortex dipoles move towards the edge at an oblique angle to the coordinate axes,and it reveals that the Rydberg nonlocal nonlinear interaction shortens the lifetime of late vortices.When the intra-component and inter-component Rydberg strengths are different,the backgrounds of the two components gradually complement each other,and the lifetime of late vortices is significantly shortened.The presented results show that the Rydberg dressing breaks the rule that the initial average depth determines the number and paths of vortices.The motion features of vortex dipoles in the ultracold Rydberg atomic system have been ascertained,and their directions of movement can be predicted to some degree based on the rotation directions and initial positions of the vortices.
