An improved two-colour pyrometer based method for measuring dynamic temperature mapping of hydrogen-air combustion

To solve the problem of measuring the combustion temperature of hydrogen gas, an improved two-colour pyrometer with suspended tungsten powder was developed and calibrated by a tungsten halogen lamp. The characteristic temperature parameters of the premixed 30% H₂/70% air flame, including temperature distribution, proportion, maximum value, minimum value, and average value, could be measured and calculated using the improved two-colour pyrometer method and a python code. The temperature measuring results of H₂-air mixture obtained by this technique were compared with that of thermocouples and previous studies. The results verified its feasibility to measure the flame temperature structure of H₂ combustion. Future work concerning the influential factors of the improved two-colour pyrometer was also mentioned.     

Effect of Ni and SAPO-34 co-additive on enhancing hydrogen storage performance of MgH2

The hydrogen storage performances of MgH₂ improved by the addition of Ni and SAPO-34 were studied in detail. The mixture of MgH₂ with Ni and SAPO-34 was a physical reaction as shown by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) results. The SAPO-34 and Ni were uniformly distributed on the surface of MgH₂. The thermodynamic and kinetic properties of 90MgH₂/5Ni/5SAPO-34 were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and pressure-composition-isothermal (PCI) methods. The results showed that the dehydrogenation activation energy of 90MgH₂/5Ni/5SAPO-34 decreased by 64.3 kJ/mol compared with that of MgH₂. In addition, the relationship between the value of dehydrogenation heat and hydrogen content was also investigated by in-situ calorimetry. The enthalpy value of each sample in the dehydrogenation processes were calculated by in-situ calorimetry measurement. The dehydrogenation enthalpies of as-milled MgH₂ and 90MgH₂/5Ni/5SAPO-34 were 63.2 kJ/mol H₂ and 53.6 kJ/mol H₂, respectively. Thus, the co-doping of Ni and SAPO-34 contributed significantly to decrease the thermodynamic stability and improve the hydrogen sorption kinetic properties of MgH₂.     

The effect of measurement error on the performance of Mann-Whitney and Signed-Rank nonparametric control charts

Mann-Whitney and Signed-Rank control charts are two well-known nonparametric charts used for controlling the center of the process when the distribution of the process parameter is unknown or nonnormal. Considering the effect of measurement error on the performance of control charts, the mentioned effect with additive model is investigated on Mann-Whitney and Signed-Rank charts. Furthermore, a comparison is made between the two charts and a Shewhart-type $\overline{\mathrm{X}}$ chart (as a parametric one) in the presence of the error. To do so, a simulation program is used and average run length (ARL) of the charts are calculated under three distributions. The results for all three distributions show that the existence of measurement error weakens the performances of both nonparametric charts and larger values of the variance of the error will increase the effect. A numerical example is also discussed to show the effect on the performance of the charts. Multiple measurements is used as a way to decrease the effect of measurement error. Knowing the fact that it requires extra time and money, it can be used in real cases depending on the financial limitations of the user.     

Experimental investigation of aerodynamic effects of probe on heat transfer from hot-wire sensors at vertical and horizontal orientations

Aerodynamic effects due to hot-wire anemometer (HWA) probe directly influence heat transfer from the probe sensor and result in reduced accuracy in two-dimensional measurements. This experimental research investigates the aerodynamic effects for hot-wire sensors through the study of some important factors such as probe geometry, flow scheme (velocity and direction) and orientation of the probe relative to the flow direction. In addition, flow velocity field between the prongs of a 10:1 model of a single normal probe is explored at different velocities and yaw angles, both at vertical and horizontal orientations of the probe. Results indicate that in vertical orientation, heat transfer from the sensors is always higher than horizontal orientation. Moreover, the aerodynamic effects cause a velocity increase of up to 6% in the vicinity of the sensor. In addition, the presence of the sensor in the flow, generates low-velocity field in the flow wake and a minor rotation of the flow in the vicinity of the sensor, which result in reduced heat transfer from the sensor in horizontal orientation compared to the vertical orientation.

Compressive thermal stress and microstructure-driven charge carrier transport in silicon oxycarbide thin films

This work correlates the charge carrier transport mechanism of silicon oxycarbide-based thin films with their morphology and thermal stress. Segregation of highly-graphitized carbon-rich, oxygen-depleted C/SiC areas homogeneously dispersed within an oxygen-rich C/SiOC matrix was seen on the 500 nm-SiOC thin films. Compressive biaxial stress induced by the mismatch with the Si-substrate thermal expansion coefficient was calculated at 109 MPa. Through Hall measurements, p-type carriers were shown dominating the SiOC film similar to monolithic samples. Thin films and monoliths have comparable carrier concentrations while the carrier mobility in SiOC thin films was 2 magnitudes higher than that of monolithic samples and is considered a consequence of the compressive thermal stress acting on the film. Improved conductivity of 16 S cm -1 is measured for the SiOC thin film sample which is assumed considering the enhanced carrier mobility alongside the reduced percolation threshold ascribed to the phase-separated morphology of the thin film.     

倾斜入射下的单截面平面度绝对检验

针对大尺寸光学平面的直线度的纳米级测量精度需求，提出了倾斜入射下单截面平面度绝对检验方法，实现了对超过相移干涉仪口径的长平晶绝对检验。利用棱镜转向实现倾斜入射角度的精密预标定，棱镜标定角度的精度高于圆光栅和图像分析等方法，可提高测量不确定度到0.0042 μm。对比了常规三面互检绝对检验结果与本方法的差异，在相同尺寸下，直线度误差仅为1.2 nm。在确认标定反射镜位置后，整个倾斜入射的干涉图调整过程将被完全集中到待测长平晶的工作面上，不需要再对反射平晶进行操作。调整长平晶时各个维度的操作互不干涉，可快速简便地得到测量结果。     

Collineation measurement: A method for constructing the imperial citadel of Thang Long in harmony with nature

The Imperial Citadel of Thang Long is a crucial case in ancient Vietnam’s planning and design history. Although historical materials indicate that the orientation of the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long has a dialectical unity relationship with the surroundingmountains, current research is only speculative generalization and lacks empirical analysis. Based on existing findings, this paper identifies the collineation measurement as a generalmethod in the Sinosphere countries for determining spatial orientation. Using a mixed-method of historical archives, fieldwork and simulation model, this paper summarizeshistorical cluesandthreedesignperspectives related to spatial orientation by statistical analysis. Further, it analyzes the logic and application of collineation measurement in constructing the Imperial Citadel of Thang Long. The results show that Vietnamese designers used Tàn Viên Mountain as a component of Thang Long city by collineating the twomountain peaks to the west. Tàn Viên Mountain and the highlands extending eastward fromit are used as the key to establishing the position of the Imperial Citadel, setting the spatial structure of human settlements, and the development of city space. The location, layout, and formof important buildings in the Imperial Citadel are also closely related to the surrounding landscape within 50 km.

Effect of ligand environment of rare-earth ions on temperature measurement performance of SrAO4:xEu3+ (A = Mo and W) phosphors

Molybdate and tungstate with scheelite-type structure are excellent self-luminescent materials, which can be used as ideal hosts for the doping of rare-earth ions. In this study, a series of Eu³⁺-activated SrAO₄ (A = Mo and W) phosphors were successfully synthesized, and their crystal structures, photoluminescence properties, and temperature measurement performance were analyzed in detail. These phosphors were excited by UV light (291 nm and 247 nm, respectively), with clear energy transfer (ET) (MoO₄^2?→Eu³⁺ or WO₄^2?→Eu³⁺). According to fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) and Judd–Ofelt (J–O) theory, compared to SrWO₄:0.01Eu³⁺ phosphor, SrMoO₄:0.01Eu³⁺ phosphor exhibited better thermal stability, with relatively low Sa value (maximum values were 5.082 %K^?1 and 20.74 %K^?1, respectively), and their Sr values were not significantly different (maximum values were 0.864 %K^?1 and 0.83 %K^?1, respectively). Sa value was negatively correlated to central asymmetry of Eu³⁺, but the optimal Sr value tended to be more suitable for central asymmetry of Eu³⁺. In addition, Eu³⁺ exhibited stronger central asymmetry as well as covalency of Eu–O bond in SrMoO₄. Results reveal that SrMoO₄:xEu³⁺ and SrWO₄:xEu³⁺ can be used for luminescent thermometers.
