激波与椭圆形重气柱相互作用的PLIF实验

在水平激波管中,采用平面激光诱发荧光(planar laser-induced fluorescence, PLIF)方法对椭圆形重气柱界面的Richtmyer-Meshkov不稳定性进行实验。气柱由SF₆混入一定比例的丙酮蒸气构成,环境气体为空气。通过改变椭圆形气柱的长短轴比值,得到了激波马赫数为1.25时,3种初始界面的演化形态。通过相对体积分数标定,得到了界面失稳演化过程中的相对体积分数分布,观察到了激波作用后界面气体聚集、转移、消散等现象。实验结果发现,对于流向轴长与展向轴长之比较大的气柱界面,初始界面产生的涡量更大且分布更广,其界面不稳定性发展得越迅速和剧烈。失稳发展迅速的界面甚至出现涡对碰撞并产生尾部射流结构的现象。初始界面直接决定了失稳发展初期形成的涡对强度和间距,并对后期演化有重要影响。     

扩散型气柱界面R-M失稳中混合率的实验研究

Richtmyer-Meshkov(R-M)不稳定性普遍存在于众多工程问题中,激波管实验是研究R-M失稳问题的主要手段.高精度的平面激光诱导荧光(planar laser-induced fluorescence,PLIF)技术具有分子量级的示踪能力,可获得界面气体浓度(摩尔分数)分布,为研究界面失稳混合问题提供了有力工具.在弱激波(Ma=1.25)冲击扩散型气柱界面实验中,采用PLIF技术对R-M失稳引起的SF6-Air界面混合问题进行了研究.通过改变椭圆形初始界面的长短轴比,得到了3种扩散型初始界面失稳演化过程中气体摩尔分数,观察到了斜压机制下界面的简单拉伸、二次不稳定性、挤压射流等现象.利用浓度分布进一步得到了界面的瞬时混合率,通过瞬时混合率、界面整体平均混合率以及混合率的概率密度分布,分析了界面在不同演化阶段的界面混合特征,初步讨论了界面失稳混合的机制.演化初期,界面在斜压涡的作用下发生拉伸卷曲,通过增大浓度梯度来促进界面的混合.当演化进一步发展,二次不稳定性出现后,界面通过小尺度对流的方式达到湍流混合状态,而浓度梯度驱使的分子间混合逐渐减弱.由浓度梯度引起的扩散与由二次不稳定性引起的对流存在着"竞争"关系,二者共同主导了界面的混合.     

Series solutions of unsteady MHD flows above a rotating disk

The series solutions of unsteady flows of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid caused by an impulsively rotating infinite disk are given by means of an analytic technique, namely the homotopy analysis method. Using a set of new similarity transformations, we transfer the Navier–Stokes equations into a pair of nonlinear partial differential equations. The convergent series solutions are obtained, which are uniformly valid for all dimensionless time 0 ≤ τ < ∞ in the whole spatial region 0 ≤ η < ∞. To the best of our knowledge, such kind of series solutions have never been reported. The effect of magnetic number on the velocity is investigated.

Multi-scale magnetic resonance measurements and validation of Discrete Element Model simulations

This short review describes the capabilities of magnetic resonance (MR) to image opaque single- and two-phase granular systems, such as rotating cylinders and gas-fluidized beds operated in different fluidization regimes. The unique capability of MR to not only image the solids’ distribution (voidage) but also the velocity of the particulate phase is clearly shown. It is demonstrated that MR can provide measurements over different length and time scales. With the MR equipment used for the studies summarized here, temporal and spatial scales range from sub-millisecond to hours and from a few hundred micrometres to a few centimetres, respectively. Besides providing crucial data required for an improved understanding of the underlying physics of granular flows, multi-scale MR measurements were also used to validate numerical simulations of granular systems. It is shown that predictions of time-averaged properties, such as voidage and velocity of the particulate phase, made using the Discrete Element Model agree very well with MR measurements.     

Effect of thermal treatment on structural change of anode electrocatalysts for direct methanol fuel cells

Commercially available carbon-supported Pt,PtCo and PtRu catalysts from E-TEK are heat-treated in turn at 600 ℃ and 800 ℃ each for an hour.The as-received and as-heated catalysts are used as anode catalysts for direct methanol fuel cells.Structural and surface composition changes induced by heating are analyzed by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),respectively.For the Pt catalyst,heating the catalysts caused only the mass activity decrease due to particle sintering,whereas the specific activity and CO tolerance remained unchanged.The performance of the PtCo and PtRu catalysts is affected differently by heating.Heating the PtRu catalyst adversely affects its catalytic activity and its CO tolerance due to Pt depletion at the surface.In contrast,although Pt depletion also takes place for the heated PtCo catalysts,these catalysts show an even higher specific activity and approximately the same CO tolerance.The observed difference is likely due to the optimum atomic ratio difference for Ru/Pt and Co/Pt;an increased atomic ratio on the surface for Co/Pt results in an activity enhancement,which is contrary to the effect of the increase of Ru/Pt atomic ratio.     

3d过渡金属Co掺杂核壳结构硅纳米线的第一性原理研究

基于密度泛函理论的第一性原理计算,研究了横截面为五边形和六边形的核壳结构硅纳米线的过渡金属Co原子替代掺杂.通过比较形成能发现,核心位置掺杂、壳层单链掺杂以及外壳层全替代掺杂的硅纳米线都具有稳定性,其中核心位置掺杂结构的稳定性最高.掺杂体系均呈现金属性,随着掺杂浓度的增加,电导通道数增加.Co原子掺杂的硅纳米线呈现铁磁性,具有磁矩.Bader电荷分析表明,电荷从Si原子转移至过渡金属Co原子.与自由态时过渡金属Co原子的磁矩相比,体系中Co原子的磁矩有所降低,这主要是由Co原子4s轨道向3d/4p轨道的电荷转移以及4s,3d,4p的上自旋电子转移至下自旋导致的.

A multigrid approach for steady state laminar viscous flows

In this paper, we use the laminar viscous flow in a lid‐driven cavity as an example to describe and verify a numerical scheme for non‐linear partial differential equations. The proposed scheme combines a new analytical method for strongly non‐linear problems, namely the homotopy analysis method, with the multigrid techniques. A family of formulas at different orders is given. At the lowest order, the current approach is the same as the traditional multigrid methods. However, our high‐order scheme needs a fewer number of iterations and less CPU time than the classical ones. Copyright © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
