Assessment of different reconstruction techniques for implementing the NVSF schemes on unstructured meshes

Three new far‐upwind reconstruction techniques, New‐Technique 1, 2, and 3, are proposed in this paper, which localize the normalized variable and space formulation (NVSF) schemes and facilitate the implementation of standard bounded high‐resolution differencing schemes on arbitrary unstructured meshes. By theoretical analysis, it is concluded that the three new techniques overcome two inherent drawbacks of the original technique found in the literature. Eleven classic high‐resolution NVSF schemes developed in the past decades are selected to evaluate performances of the three new techniques relative to the original technique. Under the circumstances of arbitrary unstructured meshes, stretched meshes, and uniform triangular meshes, for each NVSF scheme, the accuracies and convergence properties, when implementing the four aforementioned far‐upwind reconstruction techniques respectively, are assessed by the pure convection of several scalar profiles. The numerical results clearly show that New‐Technique‐2 leads to a better performance in terms of overall accuracy and convergence behavior for the 11 NVSF schemes.

Cluster Light-Emitting Diodes Containing Copper Iodine Cube with 100 % Exciton Utilization Using Host-Cluster Synergy

Clusters combine the advantages of organic molecules and inorganic nanomaterials, which are promising alternatives for optoelectronic applications. Nonetheless, recently emerged cluster light-emitting diodes require further excited state optimization of cluster emitters, especially to reduce population of the cluster-centered triplet quenching state (³CC). Here we report that redox-active ligands enhance reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) of Cu₄I₄ cluster for triplet-to-singlet conversion, and thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) host can provide an external RISC channel. It indicates that the complementarity between TADF host and cluster in RISC transitions gives rise to 100 % triplet conversion efficiency and complete singlet exciton convergence, rendering 100-fold increased singlet radiation rate constant and tenfold decreased triplet non-radiation rate constant. We achieve a photoluminescence quantum yield of 99 % and a record external quantum efficiency of 29.4 %.

Effect of pyrolysis characteristics on ignition mechanism and NO emission of pulverized coal during oxy-fuel combustion

The effect of pyrolysis behavior on the ignition mechanism was investigated by thermogravimetric technique. The pyrolysis tests show that Datong bituminous coal (DT) pyrolyzes earlier and releases volatiles faster than does Guohua bituminous coal (GH). During oxy-fuel combustion, more volatiles accumulated around DT particles can be ignited easily with increasing oxygen concentration which results in the heterogeneous ignition transforming to homogeneous ignition, while for GH, less volatile is released during devolatilization and the coal particles are more likely ignited heterogeneously. After the transformation of ignition mechanism, the ignition temperature of DT decreases significantly, but the combustibility index S is not appreciably affected. The effect of pyrolysis characteristics on NO emissions was studied by a fixed-bed reactor. It is found that compared to GH, DT released NO more quickly and intensively which leads to more fuel-N converting to NO. With the rise in oxygen concentration, the NO yields of both coals reach the peak values at 40 % oxygen concentration and then decline mainly due to the enhanced homogeneous NO reductions at higher oxygen concentration. With the rise in furnace temperature, the NO yields of coal samples increase first and then decrease with a maximum at 900 °C which is possibly a result of the competing reactions of volatile-N oxidation and reduction in the process of NO formation.     

Synthesis of phenyl-s-triazine-based copoly(aryl ether)s derived from hydroquinone and resorcinol

A novel series of soluble and heat-resistant copoly(arylene ether phenyl-s-triazine)s (PAEPs) have been prepared for their potent utilities as structural coatings, high-temperature membranes or adhesives. The copolymers have been synthesized via the nucleophilic displacement polymerization of 2,4-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-6-phenyl-1,3,5-triazine (BFPT) with various ratios of hydroquinone (HQ) and resorcinol (RS). A key feature of these copolymers is the incorporation of multiply meta-ether linkages in the polymer chain, which results in an improvement in the solubility of poly(arylene ether phenyl-s-triazine)s in common organic solvents (e.g., N,N’-dimethylacetamide, N,N’-dimethylformamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone). The new random copolymers exhibit high glass transitions exceeding 241 °C and excellent thermal and thermo-oxidative stabilities associating with decomposition temperatures for 5% mass-loss in excess of 531 °C. These copolymers can be easily cast into tough, clear and creasable films and exhibit good mechanical properties. All copolymers are amorphous except PAEP9010 as evidenced by WAXD. Their solubility increases with an increase in meta-ether linkage content in the polymer backbone, while the crystallinity and the overall thermal stability appear to decrease slightly. This kind of phenyl-s-triazine-based poly(arylene ether) copolymers may be considered a good candidate for using as high-performance polymeric materials.

送风方式对飞机座舱内污染物传播影响研究

采用数值模拟方法研究了波音737-200座舱模型内的气流场以及污染物传播过程,并通过实验数据加以验证;分析了天花板加侧壁送风(混合送风)、侧壁送风以及天花板送风三种送风方式下座舱内的速度场、涡量场、污染物浓度场和空气龄,并且解释了舱内流场结构对污染物传播过程的影响。研究结果表明:不同送风方式下飞机座舱内污染物的传播过程差异明显,这是由流场结构特征的差异造成的,特别是在小尺度范围内,涡结构十分复杂,严重影响污染物的传播规律;在聚集过程中,污染物更容易在漩涡范围内聚集,而变形主导的气流运动会阻碍污染物向更大范围传播;在排除过程中,天花板送风形式下污染物的排除效率最快,混合送风次之,侧壁送风最慢。这对于防控新冠肺炎是有参考价值的。

Self-Assembling Behavior of Polyglyceryl-Modified Silicone Surfactant in Aqueous Solution

We report interesting self-assembly behavior of a polyglyceryl-modified silicone surfactant in the aqueous solution; the sample has been characterized through measurements of surface tension, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), and small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). Aqueous solutions of this surfactant had a low critical aggregation concentration (CAC) and surface tension (21.5 mN · m^?1), substantially lower than those reported for polyether-modified silicone surfactants with a similar molecular architecture. DLS and TEM revealed self-assembled spherical micelles with a narrow size distribution. At higher concentrations (10 wt%), linear packing of micelles was observed, while the micelle size distribution remained similar (50–90 nm). SAXS data could be fitted through the use of a core–shell model and implied that the core radius remained roughly 4.3–6.0 nm for all solutions of the surfactant analyzed. The origin of its curious aggregates behavior is attributed to hydrogen bonding, steric effects, and the directionality of bond angle from the polyglyceryl block of this novel class of silicone surfactant. This type of surfactant coupling lipophilic segments assembles the cores of the micelles in water which may find positive factors for potential applications such as microreaction compartmentalization.     

Thermochemical hole burning on a series of N-substituted morpholinium 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane charge-transfer complexes for data storage

We demonstrate here the thermochemical hole burning (THB) effect on a series of N-substituted morpholinium 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane charge-transfer (C-T) complexes for ultra-high-density data storage. A correlation between the decomposition temperature of the charge-transfer complex and the threshold voltage of hole burning was observed: the higher the decomposition temperature, the larger the writing threshold value, suggesting the possibility of molecular design for optimizing the hole burning performance. The macroscopic decomposition properties of these charge-transfer complexes were studied by thermal gravimetry combined with mass spectrometry. Theoretical estimation of the temperature rise induced by scanning tunneling microscopy current heating was also conducted, which indicated that the maximum temperature certainly exceeds the decomposition temperatures of these C-T complexes. These observations are consistent with the thermochemical hole burning mechanism.
