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。     

A mini review on two-dimensional nanomaterial assembly

Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials have attracted a great deal of attention since the discovery of graphene in 2004, due to their intriguing physicochemical properties and wide-ranging applications in catalysis, energy-related devices, electronics and optoelectronics. To maximize the potential of 2D nanomaterials for their technological applications, controlled assembly of 2D nanobulding blocks into integrated systems is critically needed. This mini review summarizes the reported strategies of 2D materials-based assembly into integrated functional nanostructures, from in-situ assembly method to post-synthesis assembly. The applications of 2D assembled integrated structures are also covered, especially in the areas of energy, electronics and sensing, and we conclude with discussion on the remaining challenges and potential directions in this emerging field.

     

Research on optimization design of PWR flow distribution device based on numerical simulation

ABSTRACT

In the lower chamber of pressurized water reactor (PWR), the flow distribution device is the core module to distribute coolant into the core. It has complex structure and numerous design parameters. Therefore, it has important theoretical and practical significance to optimize the device. The mesh independence verification, turbulence model selection, and data processing all can influence the numerical simulation results of the lower chamber, in order to research the influence, a numerical simulation method based on the original model of CNP1000 reactor lower chamber is proposed in this paper. In the method, an optimization design method of flow distribution device is established based on surrogate model. The main design variables and optimization objectives are determined based on the device’s structure and function characteristics. And then it respectively adopts Kriging algorithm and multi-objective genetic algorithm to establish a surrogate model of flow distribution device and optimize it globally. Finally, the optimal design variables are obtained. Compared with the device’s performance before optimization, the after optimization has smaller total pressure loss and more uniform flow. The effectiveness and practicability of proposed optimization design method can be verified.
