A fourth‐order compact finite difference scheme for the steady stream function–vorticity formulation of the Navier–Stokes/Boussinesq equations

A fourth‐order compact finite difference scheme on the nine‐point 2D stencil is formulated for solving the steady‐state Navier–Stokes/Boussinesq equations for two‐dimensional, incompressible fluid flow and heat transfer using the stream function–vorticity formulation. The main feature of the new fourth‐order compact scheme is that it allows point‐successive overrelaxation (SOR) or point‐successive underrelaxation iteration for all Rayleigh numbers Ra of physical interest and all Prandtl numbers Pr attempted. Numerical solutions are obtained for the model problem of natural convection in a square cavity with benchmark solutions and compared with some of the accurate results available in the literature.

Synthesis of some chiral liquid crystals and study of the effect of intramolecular hydrogen bonding on the phase behaviour

The synthesis of three new series of chiral Schiff's bases containing benzilideneaniline and 2-hydroxybenzilideneaniline moieties as mesogenic cores is presented. Differential scanning calorimetry, optical polarizing microscopy and X-ray diffraction measurements were used to study the phase transition temperatures and behaviour. The results reveal that most of these materials show chiral smectic mesomorphism.

A flow tube study of methyl iodine uptake on soot surface

The black carbon aerosols are now recognized for their potential impact on climate and the halogenated compounds are thought to be very important in atmospheric chemistry. However, there are very few studies on the interactions between soot aerosols and halogenated compounds. We report the measurement of the uptake of CH₃I on soot. The measured uptake coefficient is 0.0103 ± 0.0015 at a total pressure of 2–4 Torr and 298 K. The results suggest that the uptake of CH₃I occurs efficiently on soot particles. The present work suggests that heterogeneous loss of CH₃I on soot may influence the concentration of CH₃I throughout the atmosphere.     

荧光光纤温度传感器激励光源的选择

本文分析计算了荧光光纤温度传感器的温敏元件——GsAlAs/GaAs双异质结半导体材料的荧光辐射效率与激励光波长的关系。讨论了温度测量范围及温敏元件GaAlAs层铝含量对激励光源的限制,在0～200℃测温范围内,若采用LED作激励光源,其峰值波长应在0.70～0.76μm之间选择。     

Discrete-time GI/Geo/1 queue with multiple working vacations

Consider the discrete time GI/Geo/1 queue with working vacations under EAS and LAS schemes. The server takes the original work at the lower rate rather than completely stopping during the vacation period. Using the matrix-geometric solution method, we obtain the steady-state distribution of the number of customers in the system and present the stochastic decomposition property of the queue length. Furthermore, we find and verify the closed property of conditional probability for negative binomial distributions. Using such property, we obtain the specific expression for the steady-state distribution of the waiting time and explain its two conditional stochastic decomposition structures. Finally, two special models are presented.

经济增长与宏观经济运行模型

对国民经济进行宏观调控，如同经济增长问题一样是一个永恒问题，对宏观调控的基本内容，手段，方法，国内外学者已进行了较多的规范性讨论，尤其是在数理分析方面，也已有许多具有普遍意义的成果，但是，要把那些成果转化为“生产力”从而变成清晰的，简明的，可操作的手段和方法，尚需人们不断的探索，本文通过对国民经济运行过程中若干宏观经济变量之间的数量关系分析，并以此建立了的国民经济宏观数量模型，就是尝试性的探索。
