Pool boiling on a superhydrophilic surface

Titanium Dioxide, TiO₂, is a photocatalyst with a unique characteristic. A surface coated with TiO₂ exhibits an extremely high affinity for water when exposed to UV light and the contact angle decreases nearly to zero. Inversely, the contact angle increases when the surface is shielded from UV. This superhydrophilic nature gives a self-cleaning effect to the coated surface and has already been applied to some construction materials, car coatings and so on. We applied this property to the enhancement of boiling heat transfer. An experiment involving the pool boiling of pure water has been performed to make clear the effect of high wettability on heat transfer characteristics. The heat transfer surface is a vertical copper cylinder of 17 mm in diameter and the measurement has been done at saturated temperature and in a steady state. Both TiO₂-coated and non-coated surfaces were used for comparison. In the case of the TiO₂-coated surface, it is exposed to UV light for a few hours before experiment and it is found that the maximum heat flux (CHF) is about two times larger than that of the uncoated surface. The temperature at minimum heat flux (MHF) for the superhydrophilic surface is higher by 100 K than that for the normal one. The superhydrophilic surface can be an ideal heat transfer surface.

强折射轴对称流场的干涉再现方法

利用光学方法测量气体状态参数的关键在于确定气体折射率场的变化。光线通过稳定的非均匀折射率场时发生偏折，并且在强折射对称场中会产生交叉，使得条纹位移量的判读困难。本文首先分析了光线在轴对称折射率场中的偏折效应，在此基础上，给出了一种利用成像透镜对强折射轴对称场中折射率的干涉再现方法。该方法与其它方法相比较能够精确地确定折射率ｎ（ｒ）的值。

寻找非构造油气藏的新思路

目前,一种新的理论体系和研究方法已经形成,并正在发展和逐步完善。那就是层序地层学和油气成藏系统理论的诞生和发展;以及由计算机的快速发展带动起来的地震测井资料的采集、处理、显示和各种地质问题的计算机模拟技术,使得地质学和石油地质学都在朝着从定性到定量,从推测到更科学的预测方向发展。在今后的5～10年中,中国的石油地质家们不仅要注意方法和技术方面的进步,还应当重视在陆相层序地层学和陆相层序中油气成藏机制等基本理论方面的研究。     

Design of pole-assignment controller for systems with algebraic-equation constraint

In this paper we have studied the control of linear systems with algebraic-equation constraint. A pole-assignment controller with two-layer structure for such constrained systems has been presented. The objective of the controller is to assign the desired poles to constrained system and simultaneously force the corresponding closed-loop system to satisfy the constraint. The conditions for the existence of pole-assignment controller are discussed in different cases. The implementation algorithm of pole-assignment controller is also presented. An example is given to illustrate the validity of the method in this paper.     

Pi-coefficient analysis of update algorithms for adaptive systems

This paper finds the appropriate pi-coefficients for a parameter estimation adaptive system and uses them to analyze the stability of two estimation algorithms. The estimation error dynamics of the system are modeled by a linear time-invariant subsystem and a nonlinear time-varying update law in a feedback loop. Then the so-called max-p problems are formulated and solved to obtain the pi-coefficients for the linear subsystem and nonlinear update low. For the investigated system, the quantitative results show that the least-squares update algorithm has larger stability range than that of the gradient algorithm, and the σ-modification scheme gives larger stability ranges for both algorithms.     

热流法计算高温炉内辐射传热

高温炉内的辐射传热是工业生产中常遇到的问题。过去，人们在应用热流法计算辐射传热时遇到了一定的困难，使计算结果与实际有一定的偏差。本文运用文献［１］中给出的新热流数学模型，开发出由新热流方程与能量方程相耦合的计算机程序，其中的比热流参数由线加热热源情况下计算得到。用该程序计算了实验室用马弗炉内的温度场，并且用热电偶实测了炉内的一些温度值，理论计算与实测值符合很好。     

APPLICATION OF THE POLYMERASE CHAIN REACTION TO THE RAPID ANALYSIS OF BREWERY YEAST STRAINS

The rapid discrimination of closely-related Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains can pose a significant problem to breweries, in particular where closely related strains are being used simultaneously to manufacture different products. In this study, two PCR approaches have been examined to assess their usefulness for the discrimination of brewery ale and lager yeast strains. PCR using arbitrary primers (RAPD PCR) was found unsuitable for such an application since the DNA profiles generated from brewery strains were generally found to be identical, due presumably to the close genetic relatedness of these yeasts. In contrast, PCR using δ sequence primers could rapidly differentiate between many ale and lager strains and characteristic profiles for these were generated. This method could also be applied directly to yeasts isolated from brewery worts or from active dried yeast preparations. Results of such analyses were available within the working day.
