Numerical simulation research on ecological protection device for marine water intake engineering based on cfd
1941-1948The ecological protection originated from marine engineering is the key factor for the healthy and sustainable development of marine ecological system. Combined with the tidal dynamic characteristics, a new optimistic ecological protection device concept model is designed for marine water intake engineering to avoid the ecological loss, which following the principles of safe, stable, easy installation and maintenance, unaffected water intake. Based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), the three dimensional mathematical model of ecological protection device for marine water intake engineering is constructed to simulate and evaluate the feasibility of the proposed device. The flow field and pressure distribution are simulated and analyzed before and after the device installation. The numerical results of flow velocity in the intake, intake box and intake channel show that the ecological protection device has a weak effect on the flow field and the device can provide ecological safeguard for marine intake engineering. The pressure distribution from the ecological protection device would also reflect the underlying reason of the flow velocity change
A REAL TIME MONITORING MODEL OF THE CALCIUM CARBONATE FOULING INDUCTION PERIOD BASED ON THE CONDUCTANCE TITRATION
A new method has been developed to monitor the calcium carbonate fouling induction period (CCFIP) in real time. Based on the conductance titration, this paper investigated the forming process of CCFIP by a staticdynamic combined simulation experiment unit. With the help of titration analysis (that is titrimetry), an accurate definition of CCFIP and the corresponding real time monitoring model were built up. The investigation results show that the proposed model applies not only to measure the CCFIP in real time, but also applies to an investigation of the influence of various factors on the CCFIP
A Search for Exoplanets in Open Clusters and Young Associations based on TESS Objects of Interest
We report the results of our search for planet candidates in open clusters and young stellar associations based on the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) Objects of Interest Catalog. We find one confirmed planet, one promising candidate, one brown dwarf and three unverified planet candidates in a sample of 1229 open clusters from the second Gaia data release. We discuss individual planet-star systems based on their basic parameters, membership probability and the observation notes from the ExoFOP-TESS website. We also find ten planet candidates (P > 95%) in young stellar associations by using the BANYAN ς Multivariate Bayesian Algorithm. Among the ten candidates, five are known planetary systems. We estimate the rotation periods of the host stars using the TESS light curves and estimate their ages based on gyrochronology. Two candidates with periodic variations are likely to be young planets, but their exact memberships to young stellar associations remain unknown
Anomalous Crossing Frequency in Odd Proton Nuclei
A generic explanation for the recently observed anomalous crossing
frequencies in odd proton rare earth nuclei is given. As an example, the proton
band in Ta is discussed in detail by using the
angular momentum projection theory. It is shown that the quadrupole pairing
interaction is decisive in delaying the crossing point and the changes in
crossing frequency along the isotope chain are due to the different neutron
shell fillings
Metamaterial Polarization Converter Analysis: Limits of Performance
In this paper we analyze the theoretical limits of a metamaterial converter
that allows for linear-to- elliptical polarization transformation with any
desired ellipticity and ellipse orientation. We employ the transmission line
approach providing a needed level of the design generalization. Our analysis
reveals that the maximal conversion efficiency for transmission through a
single metamaterial layer is 50%, while the realistic re ection configuration
can give the conversion efficiency up to 90%. We show that a double layer
transmission converter and a single layer with a ground plane can have 100%
polarization conversion efficiency. We tested our conclusions numerically
reaching the designated limits of efficiency using a simple metamaterial
design. Our general analysis provides useful guidelines for the metamaterial
polarization converter design for virtually any frequency range of the
electromagnetic waves.Comment: 10 pages, 11 figures, 2 table
