Experimental research on flame spectra of methane-coal dust explosions

The significance of experimental research on flame spectra of methane-coal dust explosions is explained. Weak explosions of methane-coal dust-air mixtures were carried out in a large-scale tube of Ø 200 cm×2900cm with one end open, and the absolute radiation intensities as well as their variation under different conditions for characteristic wavelengths of 0.8875, 1.000, 1.505, 2.801, and 4.346μm were obtained by using small angle of view and a multichannel detector developed by us. The experimental results are discussed and compared with those published abroad. Based on the absolute radiation intensity measured at wavelength 4.346μm and the selected blackbody radiation model, the temperature of explosion flame was determined. The results obtained are not only of great practical importance to the industry but may also be used in the study of flame and chemical kinetics.     

Initiation of Combustion in a Supersonic Hydrogen-Air Mixture Flow by CO<Subscript>2</Subscript>-Laser Radiation

Features of the ignition kinetics of an H₂/air mixture in the supersonic flow behind an inclined shock front are analyzed when asymmetric vibrations of a small amount (<1%) of O₃ molecules specially introduced into the initial mixture are excited by 9.7 μm wavelength radiation. It is shown that this radiation leads to intensification of the chain reactions and makes it possible to organize combustion at small distances from the front (of the order of 1 m) of even relatively weak shocks at small values of the laser radiation energies absorbed by the gas. This method of initiating combustion in a supersonic flow is 10–100 times more efficient than the thermal method.__________Translated from Izvestiya Rossiiskoi Academii Nauk, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, 2005, pp. 157–167.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Lukhovitskii, Starik, and Titova.     

VIBRATION AND ACOUSTIC RADIATION FROM SUBMERGED STIFFENED SPHERICAL SHELL WITH DECK-TYPE INTERNAL PLATE

Based on the motion differential equations of vibration and acoustic coupling system for thin elastic spherical shell with an elastic plate attached to its internal surface, in which Dirac-δ functions are employed to introduce the moments and forces applied by the attachment on the surface of shell, by means of expanding field quantities as Legendre series, a semi-analytic solution is derived for the vibration and acoustic radiation from a submerged stiffened spherical shell with a deck-type internal plate, which has a satisfactory computational effectiveness and precision for an arbitrary frequency range. It is easy to analyze the effect of the internal plate on the acoustic radiation field by using the formulas obtained by the method proposed. It is concluded that the internal plate can significantly change the mechanical and acoustic characteristics of shell, and give the coupling system a very rich resonance frequency spectrum. Moreover, the method can be used to study the acoustic radiation mechanism in similar structures as the one studied here.     

A NOVEL SEMI-ANALYTICAL METHOD FOR SOLVING ACOUSTIC RADIATION FROM LONGITUDINALLY STIFFENED INFINITE NON-CIRCULAR CYLINDRICAL SHELLS IN WATER

Based on the extended homogeneous capacity high precision integration method and the spectrum method of virtual boundary with a complex radius vector, a novel semi-analytical method, which has satisfactory computation effectiveness and precision, is presented for solving the acoustic radiation from a submerged infinite non-circular cylindrical shell stiffened by longitudinal ribs by means of the Fourier integral transformation and stationary phase method. In this work,besides the normal interacting force, which is commonly adopted by some researchers, the other interacting forces and moments between the longitudinal ribs and the non-circular cylindrical shell are considered at the same time. The effects of the number and the size of the cross-section of longitudinal ribs on the characteristics of acoustic radiation are investigated. Numerical results show that the method proposed is more efficient than the existing mixed FE-BE method.     

Attenuation of shock waves propagating over arrayed baffle plates

The paper reports results of shock tube experiments of the attenuation of shock waves propagating over arrayed baffle plates, which is motivated to simulate shock wave attenuation created accidentally at the acoustic delay line in synchrotron radiation factory upon the rupture of a metal membrane separating the acceleration ring at high vacuum and atmospheric test chambers. Experiments were carried out, by using double exposure holographic interferometry with double path arrangement, in a 100 mm×180 mm shock tube equipped with a test section of 180 mm×1100 mm view field. Two baffle plate arrangements were tested: Oblique and staggered baffle plates; and vertical symmetric ones. Pressures were measured along the shock tube sidewall at individual compartments for shock Mach numbers ranging from 1.2 to 3.0 in air. The results were compared with a numerical simulation. The rate of shock attenuation over these baffle plates was compared for vertical and oblique baffle plates. Shock wave attenuation is more pronounced in the oblique baffle plate arrangements than in the vertical ones. PACS 47.40.Nm; 42.40.Kw Communicated by C. Needham

Unsteady Radiative–Convective Heat Transfer in a Flow Emitting‐Absorbing and Scattering Medium around an Ablating Plate

A conjugate problem of radiative–convective heat transfer in a turbulent hightemperature gasdisperse flow around a thermally thin ablating plate is considered. The plate experiences intense radiative heating by an external source, which is a blackbody. The temperature fields and the distributions of heat fluxes along the plate under unsteady conditions are calculated. The data gained make it possible to examine the effect of the Stark number and phasetransition heat in the plate material on the time evolution of the thermal state of the boundarylayer medium and the plate itself being heated by a hightemperature radiation source.     

Thermal radiation effect on mixed convection from horizontal surfaces in saturated porous media

An analysis is presented to investigate the effect of radiation on mixed convection from a horizontal flat plate in a saturated porous medium. Both a hot surface facing upward and a cold surface facing downward are considered in the analysis. The conservation equations that govern the problem are reduced to a system of nonlinear ordinary different equations. The important parameters of this problem are the radiation parameter R, the buoyancy parameter B, and the freestream to wall temperature ratio T _∞/T _w for the case of a hot surface or the wall to freestream to wall temperature T _w /T _∞ for the case of a cold surface.

表面效应对铁<100>间隙型位错环的影响

在材料辐照损伤过程中,间隙型位错环的形成及动力学行为严重影响材料在辐照条件下的服役行为.在常用的以体心立方铁为基的合金材料中,1/2<111>和<100>是两种主要的位错环,其对辐照损伤的影响一直都是核材料领域研究的热点之一.在之前的研究中,人们对{111}面与单个1/2<111>位错环的相互作用进行了深入研究,发现表面对位错环性质确实有重要的影响.采用分子动力学方法,在原子尺度详细研究了另一个重要的表面铁{100}面对<100>间隙型位错环动力学过程的影响.模拟发现位错环伯格斯矢量与表面法线方向的关系、距表面的深度、位错环之间的相互作用以及温度等,都对位错环与表面的相互作用产生重要影响,其中,表面作用下的伯格斯矢量的演化以及<100>位错环在此过程中的一维运动首次被发现.基于这些模拟结果,就<100>位错环对表面辐照损伤结构的影响进行详细地研究,给出<100>位错环对表面凹凸结构的贡献,这些结果为理解辐照过程中材料表面的演化提供一种可能的解释.
