Different chemical effect of hydrogen addition on soot formation in laminar coflow methane and ethylene diffusion flames

Previous studies showed that adding hydrogen (H₂) can have an opposite chemical effect on soot formation: its chemical effect enhances and suppresses soot formation in methane (CH₄) and ethylene (C₂H₄) diffusion flames, respectively. Such opposite chemical effect of H₂ (CE-H₂) remains unresolved. The different CE-H₂ is studied numerically in the two laminar coflow diffusion flames. A detailed chemical mechanism with the addition of a chemically inert virtual species FH₂ is used to model the gas-phase combustion chemistry in this study. Particularly, a reaction pathway analysis was performed based on the numerical results to gain insights into how H₂ addition to fuel affects the pathways leading to the formation of benzene (A₁) in CH₄ and C₂H₄ flames. The numerical results show that the CE-H₂ in CH₄ diffusion flame to prompt soot formation is ascribed that the higher mole fraction of H atom promotes the formation of A₁ and Acetylene (C₂H₂) and leads to higher nucleation rate and eventually higher soot surface growth rate. In contrast, adding H₂ to C₂H₄ diffusion flames decreases soot nucleation and surface growth rate. The lower soot nucleation rate is due to the lower mole fractions of pyrene (A₄), while the lower soot surface growth rate is due to the lower mole fractions of H atom and C₂H₂, higher mole fraction of H₂ and lower soot nucleation rate. Furthermore, the CE-H₂ in C₂H₄ diffusion flames promotes the formation of A₁, but suppresses the formation of A₄.     

基于方向梯度直方图属性空间的局部放电模式识别改进算法

该文提出一种基于方向梯度直方图(HOG)属性空间的局部放电模式识别改进算法,旨在提高特征对样本信息的概括能力,并克服分类器对高维特征的识别局限.首先,构造局部放电脉冲序列分布(PRPS)模式作为识别依据,利用局部细分叠加窗口滑移的迭代算法自动化构建PRPS图像的HOG属性空间;然后,通过线性变换协方差矩阵的方式重构HOG属性空间,使其满足相互独立性;接着,根据属性重要性重新排列空间后,依次增加输入朴素贝叶斯分类器的属性个数,基于分类精度搜索最佳属性子集;最后,按照归约属性的相对重要性进行加权,最终设计出HOG属性选择加权朴素贝叶斯分类器.大量样本测试结果证明,此算法能够达到很高的识别精度,对传统识别算法的优化效果明显,有较好的应用价值.

Microencapsulation of camellia oil to maintain thermal and oxidative stability with focus on protective mechanism

Camellia oil (CO) microcapsules were developed using chitosan–soybean protein isolate (CS-SPI) complexes as wall materials and transglutaminase (TGase) as the cross-linking agent. Results indicated that CO/SPI under the ratio of 1:2 exhibited the highest microencapsulation efficiency and yield, possessing the best encapsulation effect. Morphology observation showed that CO microcapsules were intact, compact and nearly spherical. The microencapsulated CO exhibited the improved thermal resistance and significantly lower peroxide values after 3 days storage, demonstrating that the produced microcapsule was a promising way to maintain the thermal and oxidative stability of camellia oil. It could be found evidence from FTIR, which indicated that covalent cross-linking and hydrogen bonding might be involved among wall materials, and physical interactions between the core and wall materials. Therefore, the produced CO microcapsules could be an effective way to protect camellia oil, which was helpful for improving the processing and storage qualities of camellia oil.

A simple design approach to analyse the piled embankment including tensile reinforcement and subsoil contributions

There is not one generally accepted approach for the design of geogrid-reinforced pile-supported (GRPS) embankments. Relevant mechanisms include arching of the embankment material, but also the effect of geogrid reinforcement and potentially a contribution from the underlying subsoil. This paper presents a simple design approach to identify the contribution of all three mechanisms, in which the contribution of multi-layered geogrid reinforcement is also presented. To validate the theoretical predictions for the effect of geogrid reinforcement and the potential contribution of underlying subsoil, a series of three-dimensional finite element analyses are conducted. It is found that a point of ‘maximum arching’ is increased with the height of embankment. This study also presents that the reinforcement could reduce the ultimate stress on the subsoil. However, this requires significant sag of the reinforcement. It is found that the sag of reinforcement is very sensitive to the span of the reinforcement between piles, but relatively insensitive to the stiffness of the reinforcement. For a case with three layers of geogrid, the upper two grids carry relatively little tension compared to the bottom layer. This in turn leads to an approximate but simple equation of vertical equilibrium which may be of use in design.     

Evaluation of microbial toxins,trace elements and sensory properties of a high-theabrownins instant Pu-erh tea produced using Aspergillus tubingensis via submerged fermentation

Theabrownins (TB) are polymeric phenolic compounds associated with the multiple bioactivities of Pu-erh tea, a post-fermented Chinese dark tea. High-TB instant Pu-erh tea was produced via a novel submerged fermentation (SF) using Aspergillus tubingensis and compared with samples produced commercially via the conventional solid-state fermentation (SSF). Viable microorganisms and microbial toxins, especially aflatoxins B₁, G₁, B₂, G₂, cyclopiazonic acid, fumonisins B₁, B₂, B₃ and ochratoxin A, were below the detection limit in all samples. Fewer microbial metabolites were found in SF instant tea compared with the SSF teas. Based on an adult consuming 1 g of instant Pu-erh tea daily, the dietary intake of investigated elements was below the safe limits recommended by various authorities. Tasters viewed the instant tea infusions as very mild, smooth, mellow and full. This suggested that submerged fermentation using A. tubingensis offers a speedy and safe alternative to commercial production of instant Pu-erh tea.     

Stabilizing temperature-capacitance dependence of (Sr,Pb, Bi)TiO3-Bi4Ti3O12 solutions for energy storage

(1-x)Sr_0.7Pb_0.15Bi_0.1TiO₃-xBi₄Ti₃O₁₂ ((1-x)SPBT-xBIT, x = 0-0.125) bulk ceramics were developed and calcined via the solid-state method, aimed at the application of pulsed power capacitors. The phase structures, temperature stability, hysteresis loop, and discharge properties were systematically investigated. Considering both the temperature stability and dielectric properties, 0.925SPBT-0.075BIT bulk ceramics with a capacitance variation satisfying the X7R specification were developed for pulsed power capacitors. The energy storage density was 0.252 J/cm³, and the ceramics showed high temperature stability at 80 kV/cm. The discharge current waveforms of the 0.925SPBT-0.075BIT ceramics were recorded. A high discharge power density of approximately 1.01 × 10⁸ W/kg with an 8 Ω load resistor and short discharge period of 84 ns were achieved at 50 kV/cm. The good temperature stability properties and high power density show that the 0.925SPBT-0.075BIT ceramics are well suited for pulsed power capacitors with a wide temperature range.
