Soret and Dufour Effects on Double-Diffusive Free Convection Over a Vertical Truncated Cone in Porous Media with Variable Wall Heat and Mass Fluxes

This work studies the Soret and Dufour effects on the double-diffusive free convection over a downward-pointing vertical truncated cone with variable wall heat and mass fluxes in fluid-saturated porous media. A coordinate transformation is used to derive the nondimensional boundary-layer governing equations, and the obtained nonsimilar equations are then solved by the cubic spline collocation method. Results for local surface temperature and the local surface concentration are presented as functions of Soret parameters, Dufour parameters, power-law exponents, buoyancy ratios, and Lewis numbers. Results show that increasing the Dufour parameter tends to increase the local surface temperature, while it tends to decrease the local surface concentration. An increase in the Soret number leads to a decrease in the local surface temperature for buoyancy assisting flows, while it leads to an increase in the local surface temperature for buoyancy opposing flows. Increasing the Soret number tends to increase the local surface concentration. Moreover, the local surface temperature and the local surface concentration of the truncated cones with higher power-law exponents are lower than those with lower exponents.     

Study of Heat Transport in Bénard-Darcy Convection with g-Jitter and Thermo-Mechanical Anisotropy in Variable Viscosity Liquids

The effects of temperature-dependent viscosity, gravity modulation and thermo-mechanical anisotropies on heat transport in a low-porosity medium are studied using the Ginzburg–Landau model. The effect of gravity modulation is to decrease the Nusselt number, Nu and variable viscosity leads to increase in Nu. The thermo-mechanical anisotropies have opposite effect on Nu with thermal anisotropy decreasing the heat transport.     

A Note on the Legendre Series Solution of the Biharmonic Equation for Cylindrical Problems

The solution of cylindrical problems is addressed. A series solution is considered of the biharmonic equation, in which the series terms of the stress function Φ are expressions based upon Legendre polynomials and logarithmically singular functions. An explicit form of a polynomial supplementing each logarithmically singular part of the series solution is obtained.     

An Incompressible Fluid in a Weakly Deformable Shell. Part I: Analysis of the Model

We consider the flow of a viscous incompressible fluid in a pipe when the boundary is a deformable shell of Naghdi type. We prove that the corresponding system of partial differential equations has a solution when the deformation of the shell is smooth and small enough. We propose an algorithm that uncouples the unknowns and prove its convergence.     

Nonlinear analysis of laser droplet generation by means of 0–1 test for chaos

We apply the recently improved version of the 0–1 test for chaos to real experimental time series of laser droplet generation process. In particular two marginal regimes of dripping are considered: spontaneous and forced dripping. The outcomes of the test reveal that both spontaneous and forced dripping time series can be characterized as chaotic, which coincides with the previous analysis based on nonlinear time series analysis.     

低温生长Cu(InGa)Se2薄膜吸收层的掺钠工艺研究

在柔性聚酰亚胺衬底上低温制备Cu(In,Ga)Se₂薄膜太阳能电池, Na的掺入会改善电池特性, 但不同的掺Na工艺对Cu(In,Ga)Se₂薄膜和器件特性的改善机理不同. 本实验通过对比前掺NaF和后掺NaF工艺发现, 在前掺Na工艺下, 由于Na始终存在于Cu(In,Ga)Se₂薄膜生长过程中, Na存在于多晶 Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ 薄膜晶界处, 起到了扩散势垒的作用, 导致晶粒细碎、加剧两相分离, 同时减小了施主缺陷的形成概率; 而在后掺Na工艺下, 掺入的Na对薄膜的结构及生长不产生影响, 仅仅起到了钝化施主缺陷、改善薄膜缺陷态的作用. 同时, 研究表明, 后掺Na工艺中, NaF必须依靠外界能量辅助才能扩散进Cu(In,Ga)Se₂内部, 实验结果证实, 只有衬底温度达到350 ℃以上时, 掺入的NaF才能较好地改善薄膜特性. 最终经掺Na工艺的优化, 得到低温工艺制备的柔性聚酰亚胺衬底器件效率达10.4%.
