Calculations of optical properties in p-doped nitrides quaternary alloys multiple quantum wells

We present theoretical photoluminescence (PL) and absorption spectra of p-doped InGaN/AlInGaN and AlInGaN/InGaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs). The calculations were performed within the k.p method by means of solving a full eight-band Kane Hamiltonian together with the Poisson equation in a plane wave representation, including exchange–correlation effects within the local density approximation. Strain effects due to the lattice mismatch and an internal electric field are also taken into account. We show that by changing the In and Al composition we can reach short and long emission wavelengths. The trends in the calculated Stokes shift, due to many-body effects within the quasi-two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG), are analyzed as a function of the acceptor doping concentration. Since the studies of optical properties of quantum wells based on nitrides quaternary alloys are at an early stage, the results reported here will provide guidelines for the interpretation of forthcoming experiments.     

Experimental study of advanced cogeneration system with ammonia–water mixture cycles at bottoming

In this study, an advanced cogeneration system (ACGS) composed of three turbine systems and an ammonia absorption refrigerator is presented. The overall system configurations and some experimental results of the steady state are shown. The effectiveness of the bottoming stage that employs an ammonia–water mixture (AWM) as the working fluid is confirmed by experimental investigation. The experimental investigation shows that the AWM bottoming power-refrigeration cycles contributes to a higher bottoming efficiency, which is about 7.0% in electric power. Otherwise, the efficiency at the middle stage in conventional combined gas and steam turbine power plants is 4.6%. The cogeneration efficiency at the bottoming reached about 26.5% which is the heat and power ratio to the heat input from the heat recovery steam generator.     

Flame inertia into lean region in stratified hydrogen mixture

In hydrogen engines, the direct-injection stratified charge system has the ability to realize a more lean operation than homogeneous charge systems. Flame propagation into the lean region in the stratified hydrogen mixture was investigated in this study. Hydrogen was injected into a lean hydrogen–air premixed mixture charge of the equivalence ratio of 0.074–0.257. This stratified hydrogen mixture was ignited by an electric spark. The flame generated in the hydrogen jet propagated into the lean premixed mixture charge as if it had “inertia”, even though the stoichiometry of the premixed mixture charge was less than the lower flammability limit. The amount of burned hydrogen in the case of a stratified mixture was greater than that in the case of the homogeneous mixture. The flame seems to be supported from behind by the burned gas in the rich region until the decay of this support.

研究BP神经网络模型,通过计算机模拟人脑建立神经元网络,使用一部分人脸朝向信息作为训练的实例集,训练稳健后,可以推广应用判断其他人脸的朝向信息,以实现计算机自动识别人脸朝向。先对图片进行归一化等预处理,再应用主成分分析提取特征信息,每幅提取出的特征信息都是8个数据的列向量,构建一个8个输入、17个隐含、3个输出的三层BP网络模型。将训练实例集的特征向量代入训练,调整参数后保证其性能和收敛速度。最后通过大量实验验证,计算机识别的误判率仅为6.7%,模型可靠。
