高压软管试验台自动夹紧装置研究

从检验要求、机构设计及夹紧力分析等方面,阐述了高压软管耐压与气密性能试验台的设计过程,为了保证在多种通径软管接头的情况下,试验时不发生泄漏现象,在夹具的夹紧端面采用多圈同心圆矩形沟槽密封,以压入式液压自动夹紧方式取代手动法兰连接方式,并对液压夹紧力进行计算与分析,得出在软管最大通径100mm时,所需液压夹紧力最大,液压缸所需提供的最小工作压力约为13.4MPa。试验结果表明:与现有法兰连接方式相比,在规定试验压力下,该试验台装置无泄漏现象,自动化程度高,软管平均检验效率提高约49.4%。     

Categorical observers for metamerism

A method is proposed to generate categorical colour observer functions (individual colour matching functions) for any field size based on the CIE 2006 system of physiological observer functions. The method combines proposed categorical observer techniques of Sarkar et al with a physiologically-based individual observer model of Asano et al and a clustering technique to produce the optimal set of categorical observers. The number of required categorical observers varies depending on an application with as many as 50 required to predict individual observers' matches when a laser projector is viewed. However, 10 categorical observers are sufficient to represent colour-normal populations for personalized colour imaging. The proposed and recommended categorical observers represent a robust and inclusive technique to examine and quantify observer metamerism in any application of colorimetry.     

双季戊四醇在3种混合溶剂中的固-液相平衡

采用动态平衡法，在293.15～332.80 K、常压下，测定了双季戊四醇(DPE)在水+(甲醇、乙醇、异丙醇)三种混合溶剂中的溶解度数据。结果表明：DPE在不同质量分数的水+(甲醇、乙醇、异丙醇)混合溶剂中的溶解度随体系温度升高而增大；同一温度下，其在所选取溶剂体系中的溶解度随着甲醇、乙醇或异丙醇质量分数的增大而先增大后减小。λh方程、两参数方程与Apelblat方程均能够对所测定的溶解度数据进行较好的关联；通过修正的van’t Hoff方程计算得到DPE在所选取溶剂体系中Δ_sol H ⁰、Δ_sol S ⁰和Δ_sol G ⁰均大于零，表明DPE在所选取溶剂体系中的溶解过程为吸热、熵增的非自发过程。     

Hydrogen Production from Catalytic Steam Reforming of Bio-Oils: A Critical Review

In the future, hydrogen will be an important energy carrier and industrial raw material. Catalytic steam reforming of bio-oils is a promising and economically viable technology for hydrogen production. However, during the reforming process, the catalysts are rapidly deactivated due to coke formation and sintering. Thus, maintaining the activity and stability of catalysts is the key issue in this process. Optimized operation conditions could extend the catalyst lifetime by affecting the coke morphology or promoting coke gasification. This article summarizes the recent developments in the field of catalytic steam reforming of bio-oils, focusing on the operation conditions, the properties of the catalysts, and the effects of the catalyst supports. The expected insights into the catalytic steam reforming of bio-oils will provide further guidance for hydrogen production from bio-oils.     

An exploration of corrosion inhibition of mild steel in sulphuric acid solution through experimental study and Monte Carlo simulations

Abstract

4-[4-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]methylbenzophenone (ITBP) and 4[4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]methylbenzophenone (TTBP) are synthesized as new heterocyclic compounds of the triazole derivative family and tested successfully as potential inhibitors for MS in 1?M H₂SO₄ corrosive medium by using gravimetric analysis, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, potentiodynamic polarization, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Polarization curves show that the tested inhibitors are mixed-type inhibitors. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) affirmed the existence of an adsorbed film on the steel surface. Monte Carlo simulations were in excellent agreement with the experimental tests.

客车涂装底层材料配套性分析

针对南方客户在使用我司客车一段时间后，车身涂层不同程度出现了起泡的质量问题，进行了现场查看，发现起泡位置在车身左右侧蒙皮，且发生在涂层最底层。初步分析原因是热镀锌板+阴极电泳漆 +原子灰三者之间配套存在问题，通过热镀锌板 +阴极电泳漆 +原子灰三者之间的耐高温 80 ℃配套试验，以及室外曝晒试验，得出镀锌板表面是否钝化、电泳漆膜致密程度和原子灰苯乙烯含量是造成涂层底层起泡的主要原因。为了控制涂层起泡问题，重新修订了我司原子灰、镀锌板、电泳漆的技术标准以及部分工艺文件。     

A comparative study on hygroscopic and physiochemical properties of chicken powders obtained by different drying methods

Abstract

Different drying methods (spray drying (SD), vacuum drying (VD), microwave vacuum drying (MVD), and infrared vacuum drying (IFVD)) were applied in order to compare the hygroscopicity behavior of chicken powders. The hygroscopicity curves and glass transition temperature were used to evaluate the influence of ambient humidity and temperature on moisture absorption of powders. The results showed that the chicken powder dried by MVD had the lowest moisture absorption, followed by IFVD, VD, and SD. The hygroscopicity of SD chicken powders was different from other three kinds of chicken powders due to the physical properties of particles and the changes of protein secondary structure as detected by the Fourier transform-infrared spectrometer. For the three vacuum drying methods, the difference of protein secondary structure was the main reason of differences in hygroscopicity. Although MVD chicken powders were slightly inferior to SD chicken powders in taste, MVD chicken powders were the best in terms of smell and color as suggested by instrumental sensory parameter evaluations. It was found that MVD had a positive effect on reducing moisture absorption and maintaining sensory quality of chicken powders.
