Entropy generation minimization on electromagnetohydrodynamic radiative Casson nanofluid flow over a melting Riga plate

Minimizing entropy generation is a technique that helps improve the effectiveness of real processes by studying the associated irreversibility of system performance of nanofluid. This study examines the entropy generation analysis of electromagnetohydrodynamic radiative Casson flow induced by a stretching Riga plate in a non-Darcian porous medium under the influence of internal energy change, Arrhenius activation energy, chemical reaction, and melting heat transfer. The thermophysical features of the fluid are assumed constant in most of the literature. However, this current research bridges this gap by considering viscosity, conductivity, and diffusivity as temperature-dependent variables. Also, the exponential decaying Grinberg term is used as a resistive force in this investigation due to the electromagnetic properties of the Riga plate in the momentum conservation equation. Some suitable dimensionless variables are introduced to remodel the transport equations into unitless ones and then solved numerically by employing Galerkin Weighted Residual Method. Analyses reveal that the Casson parameter declines the fluid velocity, while the existence of the melting parameter has the opposite effect. Also, this article includes some future recommendations.     

Effect of nonlinear thermal radiation on 3D magneto slip flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid flow over a slendering sheet with binary chemical reaction and Arrhenius activation energy

An analysis is performed to study the combined effects of nonlinear thermal radiation, Arrhenius activation energy, chemical reaction and heat generation/absorption on the steady three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid flow over a slendering stretchable sheet with velocity, thermal and solutal slips. The prevailing partial differential equations are transmuted into coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations via with the suitable similarity transformations. The resultant non-linear coupled differential equations are solved numerically by using the R-K 4^th order method along with shooting scheme. The results are calculated to measure the influence of sundry parameters on velocity, temperature, concentration, shear stress, temperature gradient and concentration gradient are presented graphically and in tabular form. It is noticed that the temperature is more impactable for higher values of radiative heat transport. The local Sherwood number decays exponentially for all the values of the chemical reaction parameter. We compared the present results for the limiting cases with previously published results, which has shown reliability and efficiency.     

Rayleigh-Type Wave in A Rotated Piezoelectric Crystal Imperfectly Bonded on a Dielectric Substrate

Propagation characteristics of Rayleigh-type wave in a piezoelectric layered system are theoretically investigated. The piezoelectric layer is considered as a cubic crystal with finite thickness rotated about Y-axis and is imperfectly bonded onto a semi-infinite dielectric substrate. The imperfect interface between the two constituents is assumed to be mechanically compliant and dielectrically weakly conducting. The exact dispersion relations for electrically open or shorted boundary conditions are obtained. The numerical results show that the phase velocity of Rayleigh-type wave is symmetric with respect to the cut orientation of 45。 and can achieve the maximum propagation speed in this orientation. The mechanical imperfection plays an important role in the dispersion relations, further the normal imperfection can produce a significant reduction of phase velocity comparing with the tangential imperfection. Comparing with the mechanical imperfection the electrical imperfection makes a relatively small reduction of phase velocity of Rayleigh-type wave. The obtained results can provide some fundamentals for understanding of piezoelectric semiconductor and for design and application of piezoelectric surface acoustic wave devices.     

物联网中基于Multi-Agent的物间动态关系发现

准噶尔盆地南缘中、下组合构造普遍位于中浅层砾岩层之下,砾岩层具有横向展布范围广且不规则、纵横向速度变化大等特点,严重制约中、下组合目标的精细落实。因此,搞清砾岩层结构及分布特征,对下伏构造形态和高点位置的准确落实尤为重要。结合微测井、钻井、测井资料以及地震剖面对准噶尔盆地南缘四棵树地区中浅层砾岩层结构特征进行分析,对低速和高速砾岩层的顶底界面进行识别刻画,并分区、分段建立了砾岩层时深关系曲线,用于指导深度域下组合构造成图和叠前深度偏移中浅层速度模型的建立。实例应用证明,南缘四棵树地区中浅层砾岩层识别刻画对准确落实构造目标,提高地震剖面成像品质至关重要,同样也可以在准噶尔盆地南缘其他类似地区进行推广应用。

A skeletal n-butane mechanism with integrated simplification method

A new skeletal mechanism of n-butane is developed for describing its ignition and combustion characteristics applicable over a wide range of conditions: initial temperature 690–1430 K, pressure 1–30 atm, and equivalence ratio 0.5–2.0. Starting with a detailed chemical reaction kinetic model of 230 species and 1328 reactions (Healy et al., Combust. Flame, 2010), the directed relation graph method is applied as the first step to derive a semi-detailed mechanism with 134 species. Then, the reaction path analysis in conjunction with temperature sensitivity analysis is used to remove the redundant species and reaction paths simultaneously under the condition of low-temperature and moderate-to-high temperatures, respectively. Finally, a skeletal n-butane mechanism consisting of 86 species and 373 reactions can be obtained. Mechanism validation indicates that the new developed skeletal mechanism is in good agreement with the detailed mechanism in predicting the global ignition and combustion characteristics. The new skeletal mechanism is further validated using extensive available literature data including rapid pressure machine ignition delay time, shock-tube ignition delay time, laminar flame speed, and jet-stirred reaction oxidation, covering a large range of temperatures, pressures, and equivalence ratios. The comparison results demonstrate that a satisfactory agreement between predictions and experimental measurements is achieved.
