Influence of SiC microstructure on its corrosion behavior in molten FLiNaK salt

The influence of the microstructure on the corrosion rate of three monolithic SiC samples in FLiNaK salt at 900 °C for 250 h was studied. The SiC samples, labeled as SiC-1, SiC-2, and SiC-3, had corrosion rates of 0.137, 0.020, and 0.043 mg/cm²h, respectively. Compared with grain size and the presence of special grain boundaries (i.e., Σ3), the content of high-angle grain boundaries (HAGBs) appeared to have the strongest influence on the corrosion rate of SiC in FLiNaK salt, since the corrosion rate increased six times as the concentration of high-angle grain boundaries increased from 19 to 32% for SiC-2 and SiC-1, respectively. These results stress the importance of controlling the content of HAGBs during the production process of SiC.     

Attitudinal choice models with applications in human decision making

A new family of attitudinal discrete choice models is proposed by considering the attitudinal character and the weight vector, both of which are specific to a decision maker (DM). Given the attribute values of different alternatives, the proposed models give varying choice probabilities, as per the DM's-specific attitudinal character and the weight vector. It is also shown that the conventional discrete choice models are the special cases of the proposed attitudinal models. The proposed choice models are also generalized through an additional parameter to add to their capabilities. An application on real data is included to demonstrate their usefulness in the real world.

为更深入并准确研究运行工况条件对多向扰流强化管CaSO_4污垢特性的影响,基于FLUENT软件的UDF功能构建了恒壁温条件下结垢传质过程与温度场的耦合作用关系,进一步采用田口法对运行工况致垢的贡献率进行了模拟比较,分析了贡献率较大的运行工况对污垢特性的影响。结果表明:溶液溶度致垢的贡献率占53.2%,而壁面温度、进口流速和进口温度的贡献率分别为22.2%、19.3%和5.3%;溶液溶度在4.0～2.5 kg/m~3,污垢热阻降低达90.47%,并且随溶度降低其相邻溶度间降低比例基本不变;壁面温度在340.0～315.0 K时,污垢热阻降低了65.22%,在前一阶段相邻温度间降低比例基本上不变,当达到320.0 K后降低明显;流速在1.0～2.5 m/s时,随流速的增加,污垢热阻降低68.65%,且随流速的增加,相邻流速间降低的速度明显减缓。     

Effects of particle fouling and magnetic field on porous fin for improved cooling of consumer electronics

The combined effect of particulate fouling and magnetic field on the efficiency of a convective–radiative porous fin heatsink with temperature‐dependent thermal conductivity is presented. The developed thermal models are solved using differential transformation method. The effects of thermal conductivity, porosity, convection, radiation parameter, and thermal fouling number on the fin thermal efficiency are investigated. The presence of thermal fouling on the surface of the fin is shown to increase the temperature distribution. The presence of particle deposition on the fin surface significantly decreases the rate of heat transfer as additional thermal resistance of the fouling layer decreases the thermal performance of porous fin heatsink. Moreover, the fin efficiency decreases as the value of fouled Biot, Darcy, radiation number, and thermogeometric parameter increases. It is established that M_f < M_c, which indicates that the efficiency of the fouled fin is greater than the efficiency of the clean fin. Furthermore, the result of the present study is validated with the established results of Chebyshev spectral collocation method and fourth‐order Runge–Kutta with shooting method and an error margin of 0.000000023 is established.     

絮体表面形态对膜污染预测的影响

现有对混凝-膜过滤过程中膜污染的预测分析，一般采用XDLVO理论对光滑界面的作用能进行计算，但混凝絮体表面形态会对预测结果产生较大的影响。利用正弦波球体模型对粗糙腐殖酸(HA)絮体表面进行模拟，并通过表面元素积分法(SEI)结合XDLVO理论与复合辛普森规则，对不同粗糙程度的混凝絮体与聚偏氟乙烯(PVDF)膜的界面作用能进行量化模拟；并将结果与传统XDLVO理论模拟的光滑界面作用能进行了比较。实验结果表明，该模型适用于混凝-膜过滤体系中絮体界面作用能的模拟，同时在模拟过程中，由于粗糙度的不同会导致界面作用能在数值上存在1~2个数量级的差异；并且粗糙的絮体较完全光滑的絮体与膜污染趋势的拟合程度更高，即引入絮体表面形态对利用絮体与膜界面间相互作用能表征膜污染趋势的置信度更高。
