Rotational viscosity of a liquid crystal mixture: a fully atomistic molecular dynamics study

Fully atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at 293, 303 and 313~K have been performed for the four-component liquid crystal mixture, E7, using the software package Material Studio. Order parameters and orientational time correlation functions (TCFs) were calculated from MD trajectories. The rotational viscosity coefficients (RVCs) of the mixture were calculated using the Nemtsov--Zakharov and Fialkowski methods based on statistical-mechanical approaches. Temperature dependences of RVC and density were discussed in detail. Reasonable agreement between the simulated and experimental values was found.     

On estimating of the number of constituents of a finite mixture of continuous distributions

Summary Suppose thatH is a mixture of distributions for a given familyF A necessary and sufficient condition is obtained under whichH is, in fact, a finite mixture. An estimator of the number of distributions constituting the mixture is proposed assuming that the mixture is finite and its asymptotic properties are investigated.

Phase behaviors in a binary mixture of diblock copolymers confined between two parallel walls

The phase behaviors in a binary mixture of diblock copolymers confined between two parallel walls are investigated by using a cell dynamics simulation of the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau theory.The morphological dependence of the wall-block interaction and the distance between walls(confinement degree) has been systematically studied,and the effect of repulsive interactions between different monomers is also discussed.It is interesting that multiple novel morphological transitions are observed by changing these factors,and various multilayered sandwich structures are formed in the mixture.Furthermore,the parametric dependence and physical reasons for the microdomain growth and orientational order transitions are discussed.From the simulation,we find that much richer morphologies can form in a binary mixture of diblock copolymers than those in a pure diblock copolymer.Our results provide an insight into the phase behaviors under parallel wall confinement and may provide guidance for experimentalists.This model system can also give a simple way to realize orientational order transition in soft materials through confinement.

超临界CO2-DME混合物竖直圆管内传热特性数值研究

本文采用RNG k-ε湍流模型对超临界CO₂/DME(二甲醚)二元混合工质在竖直圆管内的传热特性进行了数值模拟研究。管径4 mm,管长为1000 mm;CO₂/DME浓度配比分别为97/3、95/5、92/8、90/10、85/15、以及70/30;质量流速为125～200 kg·m^-2.s^-1;热流密度为15～30 kW.m^-2,入口温度295～308 K,入口压力8～15 MPa。不同浓度配比的混合工质在各自临界压力下应用时,随着DME浓度的增加,换热系数的峰值逐渐减低,但在温度大于310 K时混合工质的换热系数会高于纯CO₂。压力相同时,随着DME浓度的增大,拟临界温度升高,换热系数峰值点也随之向温度升高的方向移动。混合工质的换热系数随质量流速的增大而增大。在拟临界点前,增大热流密度及降低压力对管内传热有利,而在拟临界点之后,换热系数随热流密度的升高以及压力的降低而降低。     

一种新型空气源高温热泵的热力学分析

本文提出了一种供热温度为80~100℃的新型空气源高温热泵循环(EIHP),该循环采用非共沸混合工质R290/R600a,利用内部自复叠技术和喷射器提升循环性能。针对EIHP循环建立了相应的热力学计算模型,并与传统热泵循环(CHP)进行了对比研究。根据计算结果,当冷凝器出口温度为100℃,蒸发器出口温度从25℃下降到-10℃时,相较于CHP循环,EIHP循环的COP提高了15%~27%,压缩机压比降低了20%~46%,容积制热量提高了22%~51%。此外,本文还研究了冷凝器出口温度,工质配比等参数对循环性能的影响情况。     

On Testing for the Number of Components in a Mixed Poisson Model

Poisson mixtures are usually used to describe overdispersed data. Finite Poisson mixtures are used in many practical situations where often it is of interest to determine the number of components in the mixture. Identifying how many components comprise a mixture remains a difficult problem. The likelihood ratio test (LRT) is a general statistical procedure to use. Unfortunately, a number of specific problems arise and the classical theory fails to hold. In this paper a new procedure is proposed that is based on testing whether a new component can be added to a finite Poisson mixture which eventually leads to the number of components in the mixture. It is a sequential testing procedure based on the well known LRT that utilises a resampling technique to construct the distribution of the test statistic. The application of the procedure to real data reveals some interesting features of the distribution of the test statistic.     

Achieving ultracold Bose-Fermi mixture of 87Rb and 40K with dual dark magnetic-optical-trap

We demonstrate that dual dark magnetic-optical-traps (MOTs) have great importance in the two-species ⁸⁷Rb and ⁴⁰K mixture compared with dual bright MOTs. The dark MOT has a little improvement in the trapping of single-species ⁸⁷Rb or ⁴⁰K gases compared with bright MOT. For the case of loading two-species ⁸⁷Rb and ⁴⁰K simultaneously, the improvement of ⁴⁰K in the dual dark MOTs is mainly from the reduction of light-assisted collision losses. The dual dark MOTs employ a pair of conical lenses to produce the hollow beam for repump laser with high efficiency. The number and density of ⁸⁷Rb and ⁴⁰K atoms after evaporative cooling in the hybrid magnetic trap with dark MOT loading are compared with those in bright MOT. The atoms with large number and high density make it easier to realize the quantum degenerate of Bose-Fermi mixture.
