In recent years, the new type design of current transformer with bushing structure has been widely used in the distribution network system due to its advantages of miniaturization, high mechanical strength, maintenance-free, safety and environmental protection. The internal temperature field distribution is an important characteristic parameter to characterize the thermal insulation and aging performance of the transformer, and the internal temperature field distribution is mainly derived from the joule heat generated by the primary side guide rod after flowing through the current. Since the electric environment is a transient field and the thermal environment changes slowly with time as a steady field under the actual conditions, it is more complex and necessary to study the electrothermal coupling field of current transformer (CT). In this paper, a 3D simulation model of a new type design of current transformer for distribution network based on electric-thermal coupling is established by using finite element method (FEM) software. Considering that the actual thermal conduction process of CT is mainly by conduction, convection and radiation, three different kinds of boundary conditions such as solid heat transfer boundary condition, heat convection boundary condition and surface radiation boundary condition are applied to the CT. Through the model created above, the temperature rise process and the distribution characteristics of temperature gradient of the inner conductor under different current, different ambient temperatures and different core diameters conditions are studied. Meanwhile, the hottest temperature and the maximum temperature gradient difference are calculated. According to this, the position of weak insulation of the transformer is determined. The research results can provide a reference for the factory production of new type design of current transformer.

The simulation calculation on the temperature field of the disc brake system on high-speed trains under the working condition of constant speed at 50Km/h is made. A steady-state calculation model is established according to the actual geometric size of a brake disc and a brake pad, and the analog calculation and simulation on the temperature field of the brake disc and the brake pad by using the large-scale nonlinear finite element software ABAQUS are carried out. The distribution rules of the temperature field of the brake disc and the brake pad under the working condition of constant speed are made known. The surface temperature of the brake disc at friction radius is the highest, with a band distribution for temperature. There exists a temperature flex point in the direction of thickness, of which the thickness occupies 15% of that of the brake disc; due to the small volume of the brake pad, the temperature gradient of the whole brake pad is not sharp, and larger temperature gradient occurs only on the contact surface.

The motion of a viscous droplet in unbounded Poiseuille flow under the combined influence of bulk-insoluble surfactant and linearly varying temperature field aligned in the direction of imposed flow is studied analytically. Neglecting fluid inertia, thermal convection and shape deformation, asymptotic analysis is performed to obtain the velocity of a force-free surfactant-laden droplet. The droplet speed and direction of motion are strongly influenced by the interfacial transport of surfactant, which is governed by surface Péclet number. The present study is focused on the following two limiting situations of surfactant transport: (i) surface-diffusion-dominated surfactant transport considering small surface Péclet number, and (ii) surface-convection-dominated surfactant transport considering high surface Péclet number. Thermocapillary-induced Marangoni stress, the strength of which relative to viscous stress is represented by the thermal Marangoni number, has a strong influence on the distribution of surfactant on the droplet surface. The present study shows that the motion of a surfactant-laden droplet in the combined presence of temperature and imposed Poiseuille flow cannot be obtained by a simple superposition of the following two independent results: migration of a surfactant-free droplet in a temperature gradient, and the motion of a surfactant-laden droplet in a Poiseuille flow. The temperature field not only affects the axial velocity of the droplet, but also has a non-trivial effect on the cross-stream velocity of the droplet in spite of the fact that the temperature gradient is aligned with the Poiseuille flow direction. When the imposed temperature increases in the direction of the Poiseuille flow, the droplet migrates towards the flow centreline. The magnitude of both axial and cross-stream velocity components increases with the thermal Marangoni number. However, when the imposed temperature decreases in the direction of the Poiseuille flow, the magnitude of both axial and cross-stream velocity components may increase or decrease with the thermal Marangoni number. Most interestingly, the droplet moves either towards the flow centreline or away from it. The present study shows a critical value of the thermal Marangoni number beyond which the droplet moves away from the flow centreline which is in sharp contrast to the motion of a surfactant-laden droplet in isothermal flow, for which the droplet always moves towards the flow centreline. Interestingly, we show that the above picture may become significantly altered in the case where the droplet is not a neutrally buoyant one. When the droplet is less dense than the suspending medium, the presence of gravity in the direction of the Poiseuille flow can lead to cross-stream motion of the droplet away from the flow centreline even when the temperature increases in the direction of the Poiseuille flow. These results may bear far-reaching consequences in various emulsification techniques in microfluidic devices, as well as in biomolecule synthesis, vesicle dynamics, single-cell analysis and nanoparticle synthesis.

Abstract. We examine volume mixing ratios (vmr) retrieved from limb emission spectra recorded with the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) on board Envisat. In level 2 (L2) data products of three different retrieval processors, which perform one dimensional (1-D) retrievals, we find significant differences between species' profiles from ascending and descending orbit parts. The relative differences vary systematically with time of the year, latitude, and altitude. In the lower stratosphere their monthly means can reach maxima of 20% for CFC-11, CFC-12, HNO3, H2O, 10% for CH4 and N2O. Relative differences between monthly means of 1-D retrieval results and of the true atmospheric state can be expected to reach half of these percentage values, while relative differences in single vmr profiles might well exceed those numbers. Often there are no physical or chemical reasons for these differences, so they are an indicator for a problem in the data processing. The differences are generally largest at locations where the meridional temperature gradient of the atmosphere is strong. On the contrary, when performing the retrieval with a tomographic two dimensional (2-D) retrieval, L2 products generally do not show these differences. This suggests that inhomogeneities in the temperature field, and possibly in the species' fields, which are accounted for in the 2-D algorithm and not in standard 1-D processors, may cause significant deviations in the results. Inclusion of an externally given adequate temperature gradient in the forward model of a 1-D processor helps to reduce the observed differences. However, only the full tomographic 2-D approach is suitable to resolve the horizontal inhomogeneities. Implications for the use of the 1-D data, e.g. for validation, are discussed. The dependence of the ascending/descending differences on the observation strategy suggests that this problem may affect 1-D retrievals of infrared limb sounders, if the line of sight of the instrument has a significant component in the direction of the horizontal temperature variation.

In contrast to methods that do not take into account multiconnectivity in a broad sense of this term, we develop mathematical models and highly effective combination (BIEM and FDM) numerical methods of calculation of stationary and quasi‐stationary temperature field of a profile part of a blade with convective cooling (from the point of view of realization on PC). The theoretical substantiation of these methods is proved by appropriate theorems. For it, converging quadrature processes have been developed and the estimations of errors in the terms of A. Ziqmound continuity modules have been received.

AbstractSpectral properties of convective magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in two and three dimensions are studied by means of direct numerical simulations (Skandera D. & Müller W.-C. 2006). The investigated system is set up with a mean horizontal temperature gradient in order to avoid a development of elevator instabilities in a fully periodic box. All simulations are performed without mean magnetic field. The applied resolution is 5123 and 20482. The MHD equation are solved by a numerical code (Müller & Biskamp 2000) that uses a standard pseudospectral scheme. For removing of aliasing errors a spherical truncation method is employed. Obtained results are compared with predictions of various existing phenomenological theories for magnetohydrodynamic and convective turbulence (Müller & Biskamp 2000). While the three-dimensional system is found to operate in a Kolmogorov-like regime where buoyant forces have a negligible impact on the turbulence dynamics (relatively low Rayleigh number achieved in the simulation; Ra ∼106), the two-dimensional system exhibits interesting irregular quasi-oscillations between a buoyancy dominated Bolgiano-Obukhov-like regime of turbulence and a standard Iroshnikov-Kraichnan-like regime of turbulence (Müller & Biskamp 2000). The most important parameter determining the turbulent regime of 2D magnetoconvection, apart from a high Rayleigh number, seems to be the mutual alignment of velocity and magnetic fields. The non-linear dynamics and the interplay between individual fields are examined with different transfer functions that confirm basic assumptions about directions of energy transfer in spectral space. Kinetic, magnetic and temperature energy are transported by a turbulent cascade from large to smaller scales. The local/nonlocal character of the transport is tested for several individual terms in the governing equations. Moreover, other statistical quantities, e.g. probability density functions, are computed as well. A passive character of the temperature field in the investigated three-dimensional magnetoconvection is supported by computations of intermittency using extended self-similarity. The intermittency of the Elsasser field z+ is in agreement with results from numerical simulations of isotropic MHD turbulence (Müller & Biskamp 2000). The intermittency of the temperature field is found to approximately agree with results of passive scalar measurements in hydrodynamic turbulence (Ruiz-Chavarria, Baudet & Ciliberto 1996).

Presented in this paper is a solution for countercurrent heat exchange between two parallel vessels embedded in an infinite medium with a linear temperature gradient along the axes of the vessels. The velocity profile within the vessel is assumed to be parabolic. This solution describes the temperature field within the vessels, as well as in the tissue, and establishes that the intravessel temperature is not uniform, as is generally assumed to be the case. An explicit expression for the intervessel thermal resistance based on the difference between cup-mixed mean temperatures is derived.
