Modelling the attenuation of laminar fluid transients in piping systems

The damping of laminar fluid transients in piping systems is studied numerically using a two-dimensional water hammer model. The numerical scheme is based on the classical fourth order Runge–Kutta method for time integration and central difference expressions for the spatial terms. The results of the present method show that the damping of transients in piping systems is governed by a non-dimensional parameter representing the ratio of the Joukowsky pressure force to the viscous force. In terms of time scales, this non-dimensional parameter represents the ratio of the viscous diffusion time scale to the pipe period. For small values of this parameter, the damping of the fluid transient becomes more pronounced while for large values, the fluid transient is subjected to insignificant damping. Moreover, the non-dimensional parameter is shown to influence other important transient phenomena such as line packing, instantaneous wall shear stress values and the Richardson annular effect.

Relaxation auto-oscillations in a fluidized bed

Oscillations of nonuniform fluidized bed in the slugging regime are considered. A nonlinear one-dimensional model of bed oscillations is developed and investigated, including the equations of the bed surface motion and the oscillations of the pressure drop in the bed for the phase of the surface ascent and for the phase of its fall. A quasi-discrete process of the gas escape from the layer with large bubble and the relaxation (discontinuous) type of oscillations of the bed surface and of the pressure, which are related to the above process, are shown based on the model analysis, the obtained numerical solutions, and the comparison with experiment.     

Magnetohydrodynamic flow of a Sisko fluid in annular pipe: A numerical study

This paper presents a numerical study for the unsteady flow of a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) Sisko fluid in annular pipe. The fluid is assumed to be electrically conducting in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. Based on the constitutive relationship of a Sisko fluid, the non‐linear equation governing the flow is first modelled and then numerically solved. The effects of the various parameters especially the power index n, the material parameter of the non‐Newtonian fluid b and the magnetic parameter B on the flow characteristics are explored numerically and presented through several graphs. Moreover, the shear‐thinning and shear‐thickening characteristics of the non‐Newtonian Sisko fluid are investigated and a comparison is also made with the Newtonian fluid.

Three‐dimensional flow in a thin annular layer of silicon melt with bidirectional temperature gradients

Bidirectional temperature gradients coexist virtually in surface tension driven flows. However, the simulations have been performed to the flow with only one temperature gradient. A series of 3 D numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the Marangoni‐thermocapillary flow of silicon melt in a thin annular layer with bidirectional temperature gradients. The temperature gradients are produced by the temperature difference ΔT between walls and the constant heat flux q on the bottom, respectively. When changing q, the melt presents different state evolutions at different ΔT. Furthermore, two critical q are found, one makes the minimum melt temperature higher than the crystallization temperature and the other makes the flow unsteady. Both of the critical heat fluxes decrease with increasing ΔT. q contributes more to the elevation of the melt temperature, while ΔT contributes more to the enhancement of the melt instability. In addition, the melt on the free surface flows mainly along the radial direction.     

新型大视场消杂光眼底相机光学系统的设计

设计了一款大视场、免散瞳便携式眼底相机。综合考虑接目物镜被成像和照明系统共用、人眼的像差和视度差异等因素,采用16重结构进行优化设计。设计结果的视场角达60°,分辨率为200万像素,对-8 D~+10 D(1 D=1 m-1)的人眼普遍适用,在120 lp/mm处各视场的调制传递函数(MTF)均大于0.2,畸变小于5%。为消除角膜反射产生的严重杂散光,提出采用LED环形光源改进传统科勒式照明光路,不仅保证眼底照明均匀,而且大大提高了系统的光能利用率,降低了光学系统的复杂程度。为了解决传统系统中接目物镜杂散光无法消除的难题,提出采用偏振分光棱镜代替系统中的分光镜,同时在接目物镜前端加入λ/4波片,消除了99.5%以上的由接目物镜反射产生的杂光。

在商用0.35 μm互补金属氧化物半导体工艺上制备了两种栅氧化层厚度(t_ox)的条形栅、环形栅和半环形栅N沟道金属氧化物半导体 (n-channel metal oxide semiconductor, 简记为NMOS) 晶体管, 并进行了2000 Gy(Si)的总剂量辐射效应实验. 实验结果显示, 栅氧厚度对阈值电压漂移的影响大于栅氧厚度的3次方. 对于t_ox为11 nm的低压NMOS晶体管, 通过环形栅或半环形栅的加固方式能将其抗总剂量辐射能力从300 Gy(Si)提高到2000 Gy(Si)以上; 而对于t_ox为26 nm的高压NMOS晶体管, 通过环栅或半环栅的加固方式, 则只能在低于1000 Gy(Si)的总剂量下, 一定程度地抑制截止漏电流的增加. 作为两种不同的版图加固方式, 环形栅和半环形栅对同一t_ox的NMOS器件加固效果类似, 环形栅的加固效果略优于半环形栅. 对于上述实验结果, 进行了理论分析并阐释了产生这些现象的原因. 关键词： 环形栅 半环形栅 总剂量 辐射效应     

Propagation of vectorial nonparaxial Gaussian beams through an annular aperture

Starting from the vectorial Rayleigh diffraction integrals, the nonparaxial propagation of vectorial Gaussian beams through an annular aperture is studied. The analytical propagation expressions are derived, which permit us to treat the on-axis field and far field of vectorial nonparaxial Gaussian beams diffracted at the annular aperture, the nonparaxial diffraction at a circular aperture and a circular disc as our special cases in a unified way. The validity of our treatment is confirmed by direct numerical integration of the Rayleigh formulae. It is shown that the f-parameter and annular obscuration affect the beam nonparaxiality in the case of diffraction at the annular aperture.
