Estimation of Antenna Correlation Coefficient of N-Port Lossy MIMO Array

This paper proposes a simple yet accurate method for estimating the antenna correlation coefficient (ACC) of a high-order multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna. The conventional method employed to obtain the ACC from three-dimensional radiation patterns is costly and difficult to measure. An alternate method is to use the S-parameters, which can be easily measured using a network analyzer. However, this method assumes that the antennas are highly efficient, and it is therefore not suitable for lossy MIMO antenna arrays. To overcome this limitation, we define and utilize the non-coupled radiation efficiency in the S-parameter-based ACC formula. The accuracy of the proposed method is verified by the simulation results of a 4-port highly coupled lossy MIMO array. Further, the proposed method can be applied to N-port arrays by expanding the calculation matrix.     

An integrated approach to analysing the cost efficiency of postal networks

An integrated approach to measure the cost efficiency of the postal network of Universal Service Provider is proposed. An integrated approach enables the measurement of cost efficiency for delivery and non-delivery postal network units. The proposed approach is verified and tested on the postal network of the selected provider and the results were derived by using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The results show that the main sources of inefficiency are inadequate allocation of resources relative to the network units. In addition, the study indicates that economies of scale have a positive impact on the efficiency of postal network units.

电磁场作用下球形磁极辅助研磨弯管内表面研究

弯管弯曲成形后,在弯折处易产生微裂纹、褶皱等表面质量缺陷问题。本文通过采用六自由度机械手拖动电磁场发生装置沿加工轨迹往复运动,电磁场发生装置驱动球形辅助磁极绕管件内壁转动,实现了对弯管内表面的光整加工。在此基础上,通过对弯管轮廓采集及曲线拟合,重新构建了弯管中心线并转换为新的研磨加工轨迹。采用超景深3D电子显微镜和触针式表面粗糙度测量仪对研磨试验前后弯管内表面的形貌和粗糙度进行了对比分析。结果表明,通过重新构建研磨加工轨迹,试验装置有效解决了研磨弯折处的干涉与研磨不均匀等问题。研磨55 min后,表面粗糙度由原始的0.713μm降低到0.194μm,铜合金弯管内表面原始质量缺陷基本去除,表面纹理较为致密均匀。该方法有效避免了未规划研磨轨迹时出现的犁耕等纹理缺陷,提高了弯管的服役可靠性。     

Primary energy demand and energy costs of fixed-bed drying using the example of chamomile flowers

Abstract

Energy use efficiency in the drying of medicinal and aromatic plants is largely determined by weather conditions and process parameters. While the former are beyond control, the latter can be optimized. In order to achieve such optimization, different energy supply variants, based on typical operating conditions of batch-type grate drying in Thuringia, Germany, were analyzed. It was found that partial air recirculation and integration of heat pumps allow substantial savings in primary energy. However, under the constraint of German energy prices, significant savings in energy costs can only be achieved if combined heat and power generation systems are applied at the same time.     

Enhanced Hydrogen Generation from Empty Fruit Bunches by Charcoal Addition into a Downdraft Gasifier

Hydrogen production by co-gasification of empty fruit bunches of palm oil could be enhanced by adding charcoal. Physiochemical characterization of raw feedstocks was performed to determine their exergy potentiality. The raw feedstocks, gasified charcoal, and the end product of produced gas were analyzed by different techniques. Gasification experiments were performed using a pilot-scale downdraft gasifier. The heating value, composition of product gas, yield of hydrogen, and exergy efficiency were used to verify the improvement of hydrogen production during the co-gasification process. Charcoal with empty fruit bunches of palm oil leads to a much higher yield of hydrogen than lower charcoal ratios or solely empty fruit bunches. This enhanced hydrogen fuel can contribute to future energy demand.

A landscape of hydride compounds for off-board refilling of transport vehicles

The authors compare the energy consumption of hydrogen cars (using fuel cells) with electric cars (using batteries) and conventional petrol cars finding that hydrogen cars are preferable to electric cars for long distances. They evaluate several types of hydrogen storage materials in terms of off-board refilling, in which hydrogen uptake takes place outside the vehicle. Literature values for enthalpy and entropy of formation etc. are used to calculate hydrogen densities, heat production and theoretical desorption temperature. Additionally, experimental literature values for temperature and pressure of (de)hydrogenation, kinetics and cycling stability are summarized. The results are discussed assuming that hydrogen refilling takes place in a replaceable tank outside the vehicle, which reduces the DOE requirements to high volumetric and gravimetric density, moderate release temperature, sufficiently fast release and high reversibility. They are fulfilled by materials like NaAlH₄, while even better performance can be expected from compounds like LiBH₄+MeH_x or Mg-Ti composites.
