Grain moisture is one of the key indexes of grain quality, and acquiring an accurate moisture value is critical for grain storage security. However, the sensors used in the traditional methods for testing grain moisture are based on capacitance, microwave, or radio-frequency methods and still exhibit low accuracy and instability because they are susceptible to the temperature, moisture, and micro gas flow of the air in the granary. In this study, we employed a new design for a radio-frequency moisture sensor for grain. The structure of the sensor is based on the difference method and consists of two parallel probe units. These units are at different distances to the tested grain, resulting in different sensitivities in the moisture measurements. Through a phase difference operation on the test signals, the disturbance variable was reduced. The specific size of the two parallel probes was confirmed by calculation and simulation using High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. The simulated and measured parameters of a prototype sensor agreed well. The linear relationship yielded a correlation coefficient of 0.9904, and the average error of the moisture testing was within ±0.3% under the conditions where the VSWR (voltage standing wave ratio) value and return losses were 1.5896 and −20 dB, respectively, at a measured central frequency of 100 MHz. The results indicate that the performance of the sensor was excellent.

In this work, the fluid dynamic and thermal behavior of steel was analyzed during argon gas stirring in a 140-t refining ladle. The Eulerian multiphase mathematical model was used in conjunction with the discrete ordinates (DO) thermal radiation model in a steel-slag-argon system. The model was validated by particle image velocimetry (PIV) and the analysis of the opening of the oil layer in a physical scale model. The effect of Al2O3 and Mg-C as a refractory in the walls was studied, and the Ranz-Marshall and Tomiyama models were compared to determine the heat exchange coefficient. The results indicated that there were no significant differences between these heat exchange models; likewise, the radiation heat transfer model adequately simulated the thermal behavior according to plant measurements, finding a thermal homogenization time of the steel of 2.5 min for a gas flow of 0.45 Nm3·min−1. Finally, both types of refractory kept the temperature of the steel within the ranges recommended in the plant; however, the use of Al2O3 had better heat retention, which would favor refining operations.

In this paper we consider heat exchange system from point of view of Finite-time thermodynamics. At first time the novel estimate of the minimal entropy production in a general-type heat exchange system with given heat load and fixed heat exchange surface is derived. The corresponding optimal distribution of heat exchange surface and optimal contact temperatures are also obtained. It is proven that if a heat flow is proportional to the difference of contacting flows’ temperatures then dissipation in a multi-flow heat exchanger is minimal only if the ratio of contact temperatures of any two flows at any point inside heat exchanger is the same and the temperatures of all heating flows leaving exchanger are also the same. Our result based on those assumptions: 1. heat transfer law is linear (17); 2. summary exchange surface is given; 3. heat load is given; 4. input tempretures for all flows are given; 5. water equivalents for all flows are given.

The finite difference method that is the finite element method is used to solve the plane continuous problems. In this article, the theory and method of the finite difference method, as well as the application on the boundary problem are introduced. By analyzing the potential flew field equation and liquid diffusion equation, they are discreted using the difference method and the numerical analysis under certain boundary condition is conducted. In air pollution, the smoke in the diffusion is typical planar continuous problems. In this paper, the finite difference method is used to analyse and simulate the spread of the smoke.

Standard fixed effects methods presume that effects of variables are symmetric: the effect of increasing a variable is the same as the effect of decreasing that variable but in the opposite direction. This is implausible for many social phenomena. York and Light (2017) showed how to estimate asymmetric models by estimating first-difference regressions in which the difference scores for the predictors are decomposed into positive and negative changes. In this paper, I show that there are several aspects of their method that need improvement. I also develop a data generating model that justifies the first-difference method but can be applied in more general settings. In particular, it can be used to construct asymmetric logistic regression models.
