Screening,Growth Medium Optimisation and Heterotrophic Cultivation of Microalgae for Biodiesel Production

This article presents a study on screening of microalgal strains from the Peking University Algae Collection and heterotrophic cultivation for biodiesel production of a selected microalgal strain. Among 89 strains, only five were capable of growing under heterotrophic conditions in liquid cultures and Chlorella sp. PKUAC 102 was found the best for the production of heterotrophic algal biodiesel. Composition of the growth medium was optimised using response surface methodology and optimised growth conditions were successfully used for cultivation of the strain in a fermentor. Conversion of algal lipids to fatty acid methyl esters (FAMEs) showed that the lipid profile of the heterotrophically cultivated Chlorella sp. PKUAC 102 contains fatty acids suitable for biodiesel production.     

pH-Sensitive Wettability Induced by Topologicaland Chemical Transition on the Self AssembledSurface of Block Copolymer简

pH-sensitive wettability of polystyrene-b-poly（4-vinylpyridine） （PS-b-P4VP） self assembled films, exhibiting superoleophobicity under water and hydrophilicity at low pH value, and oleophobicity under water and hydrophobicity at neutral condition, has been realized. The wettability properties resulted from the surface topological and chemical transition, which were confirmed by in situ AFM measurements under water at different pH. At low pH, P4VP chains, which were confined in the hexagonal-packed nanodomains, got protonated into a swollen state, while at high pH, P4VP chains were deprotonated into a collapsed state. The reversible protonation/deprotonation procedure on the molecular scale leads to surface topological and chemical transition, thereby pH-sensitive wettability.     

收缩扩张管内液氮空化流动演化过程试验研究

本文基于低温空化试验平台研究了收缩扩张流道内液氮非定常空化流动的演化过程. 试验采用高时空分辨率的高速摄像机对77 K液氮在不同空化数σ下空穴结构的演变进行了精细化的分析和研究. 利用试验得到的空穴长度和面积等数据, 定量分析了液氮空化流动的非定常特性与时空演变规律. 研究结果表明: (1)在相似来流速度和温度条件下, 随着空化数的减小, 液氮空化流动呈现四种典型流型, 空穴长度在2.5 h以内为初生空化、空穴长度在2.5 h ~ 7.5 h之间为片状空化、空穴长度在7.5 h ~ 15 h之间为大尺度云状空化, 空穴长度超过15 h为双云状空化, 且在大尺度云状空化和双云状空化阶段均捕捉到了回射流现象; (2)液氮空化流动从初生空化到双云状空化, 脱落空穴的尺度逐渐增大, 空穴面积脉动的幅值和准周期均有所增加. 同时, 在大尺度云状空化与双云状空化阶段, 喉口处堵塞效应对空化流动的影响显著增强; (3)相比于初生空化, 片状空化、大尺度云状空化以及双云状空化中脱落空穴的移动距离依次增加了0.97倍、2.65倍与2.68倍, 溃灭时间依次增加了1.18倍、3.59倍与4.47倍, 但溃灭速度依次减小了0.10倍、0.20倍与0.30倍. 除此之外, 对于双云状空化阶段, 存在两种显著不同的脱落空穴演化过程.

一种弹体入水冲击波阴影成像可视化系统及其试验研究

扩大成像视野对于开展充水容器中弹体入水冲击波传播及弥散方面的可视化研究具有重要的实际意义。阴影成像技术适用于大视野实验,且对流场冲击波和扰动的可视化研究具有简单性和通用性,其中直接阴影成像最为简单,但可靠点光源的缺乏是阻碍其发展应用的瓶颈。因此基于国产短弧氙灯管,自制了短弧氙灯点光源,根据阴影成像原理,设计出一种弹体入水冲击波阴影成像可视化系统,详细介绍了其组成和运行原理。利用该系统对高速弹体入水进行了试验研究,获得了弹体入水冲击波的阴影成像和冲击波信号的压力时程曲线,通过阴影成像和冲击波信号相结合分析了弹体入水冲击波的传播特性,并进行了理论验证。结果表明:该弹体入水冲击波阴影成像可视化系统具有可靠性和设计的合理性。弹体高速入水后,初始冲击波的强度最大,随着冲击波的传播,冲击波强度逐渐降低,水中冲击波的传播速度不断降低,球形冲击波的半径逐渐增大。     

波荡器谐波场增强效应对电子自发辐射谱的影响

 有效利用电子束在波荡器中运动时产生的谐波辐射,是获得更短波长辐射最直接的方法之一。提高波荡器磁场的谐波分量可以提高电子束的谐波辐射光场强度。分析了一种改进Halbach型波荡器结构,计算了其磁场的构成,分析表明这种结构可以使磁场的三次谐波分量提高至基波分量的25%左右。以合肥光源的电子束参数为例,计算了波荡器磁场谐波分量增强后对电子束自发辐射谱的影响。计算结果表明,波荡器磁场谐波分量增强至25%时,可以使电子束自发辐射的三次谐波辐射增强至基波辐射光子通量的67%左右。

Open-circuit voltage analysis of p-i-n type amorphous silicon solar cells deposited at low temperature

This paper identifies the contributions of p-a-SiC:H layers and i-a-Si:H layers to the open circuit voltage of p-i-n type a-Si:H solar cells deposited at a low temperature of 125 C.We find that poor quality p-a-SiC:H films under regular conditions lead to a restriction of open circuit voltage although the band gap of the i-layer varies widely.A significant improvement in open circuit voltage has been obtained by using high quality p-a-SiC:H films optimized at the "low-power regime" under low silane flow rates and high hydrogen dilution conditions.

Multiscale molecular dynamics using the matched interface and boundary method

The Poisson-Boltzmann (PB) equation is an established multiscale model for electrostatic analysis of biomolecules and other dielectric systems. PB based molecular dynamics (MD) approach has a potential to tackle large biological systems. Obstacles that hinder the current development of PB based MD methods are concerns in accuracy, stability, efficiency and reliability. The presence of complex solvent-solute interface, geometric singularities and charge singularities leads to challenges in the numerical solution of the PB equation and electrostatic force evaluation in PB based MD methods. Recently, the matched interface and boundary (MIB) method has been utilized to develop the first second order accurate PB solver that is numerically stable in dealing with discontinuous dielectric coefficients, complex geometric singularities and singular source charges. The present work develops the PB based MD approach using the MIB method. New formulation of electrostatic forces is derived to allow the use of sharp molecular surfaces. Accurate reaction field forces are obtained by directly differentiating the electrostatic potential. Dielectric boundary forces are evaluated at the solvent-solute interface using an accurate Cartesian-grid surface integration method. The electrostatic forces located at reentrant surfaces are appropriately assigned to related atoms. Extensive numerical tests are carried out to validate the accuracy and stability of the present electrostatic force calculation. The new PB based MD method is implemented in conjunction with the AMBER package. MIB based MD simulations of biomolecules are demonstrated via a few example systems.
