The interaction between impeller and volute produces a complex and unsteady water flow. It involves the interference of the non-uniform flow (such as the impeller’s jet wake and a secondary flow). In this paper, the transient flow in a new type of dishwasher pump is investigated numerically. In addition, pressure measurements are used to validate the numerical method, and the simulation results agree well with the experiment. Three schemes, 0 rpm (revolutions per minute)/30 rpm/60 rpm, of volute speeds are investigated. Multiple monitoring points are set at different positions of the new dishwasher pump to record pressure-pulse signals. In addition, frequency signals are obtained using a Fast Fourier Transform, which is then used to analyze the effect of the volute tongue and the outflow of the impeller. The radial force on the principal axis is recorded, and the schemes with different rotation speeds of volute are compared. The results show that the volute speed has only a small effect on the pump performance. In addition, the speed of the volute mainly affects the flow field in the transition section located between impeller and volute. The difference of the flow field in the impeller depends on the relative position between the impeller and the volute. The time domain curve for the pressure pulse is periodic, and there is a deviation between the peak for the schemes in the outflow region. In the frequency domain, the characteristic frequency equals the blade passing frequency. In the outflow region, the effect of the volute speeds increases with increasing volute speed. For the radial force, the rotating volute strengthens the fluctuation of the radial force, which affects the operational stability of the pump. The shape of the vector distribution is most regular for the 30 rpm scheme, which indicates that the stability of the pump is the highest. This paper can be used to improve both the control and selection of volute speeds.

Recently, the titania photocatalyst has been widely used in the environmental fields. However, because the past titania photocatalyst used only the range of ultraviolet rays, the usage has been limited. We attempted to develop a new type of titania photocatalyst that activates to respond not only in the ultraviolet rays region but also in the visible radiation region. The titania photocatalyst fine particles that zirconium oxide was uniformly added in the titania fine particles, and introduced simultaneously nitrogen into the crystal lattice in addition were synthesized. It was showed the high photo-absorption ability of the titania photocatalyst added the zirconium compared with not done by the absorption spectrum. Furthermore, it was found that the titania fine particles that introduced nitrogen colored to yellow, had also the high photo-absorption ability in the visible range of 600nm to 400nm in addition to the range of ultraviolet rays. It was thought that this depended on the reason based on the difference of the amount of the nitrogen introduction in the titania that originated in the zirconium. Moreover, it was compared the stability maintenance for the titania introduced nitrogen with it not done by the bleaching test of heating. As a result, the stability of the titania added the zirconium was higher than not added.

SummaryIn 4 collaborative trials, involving a varying number of hospital laboratories in the Stockholm area, the coagulation activity of different test materials was estimated with the one-stage prothrombin tests routinely used in the laboratories, viz. Normotest, Simplastin-A and Thrombotest. The test materials included different batches of a lyophilized reference plasma, deep-frozen specimens of diluted and undiluted normal plasmas, and fresh and deep-frozen specimens from patients on long-term oral anticoagulant therapy.Although a close relationship was found between different methods, Simplastin-A gave consistently lower values than Normotest, the difference being proportional to the estimated activity. The discrepancy was of about the same magnitude on all the test materials, and was probably due to a divergence between the manufacturers’ procedures used to set “normal percentage activity”, as well as to a varying ratio of measured activity to plasma concentration. The extent of discrepancy may vary with the batch-to-batch variation of thromboplastin reagents.The close agreement between results obtained on different test materials suggests that the investigated reference plasma could be used to calibrate the examined thromboplastin reagents, and to compare the degree of hypocoagulability estimated by the examined PIVKA-insensitive thromboplastin reagents.The assigned coagulation activity of different batches of the reference plasma agreed closely with experimentally obtained values. The stability of supplied batches was satisfactory as judged from the reproducibility of repeated measurements. The variability of test procedures was approximately the same on different test materials.

Задача получения однородного состава ЛКМ сводится к правильному выбору пленкообразователей и соответствующих растворителей и, в случае необходимости, разбавителей и добавок. На основе положений теории растворимости была проведена оценка совместимости компонентов и стабильности таких систем. Критериями оценки были приняты параметры растворимости и термодинамического взаимодействия. Исследовали совместимость алкидных лаков с аминоформальдегидными смолами в бутаноле, и результаты этих исследований представлены в треугольной фазовой диаграмме. Для оценки совместимости смол по результатам расчета параметров термодинамического взаимодействия были построены спинодали для тройных систем. Как показывает анализ результатов проведенных исследований, даже при большой разности ?? = |?12 – ?13| = 0,2 наблюдается небольшая область несовместимости. С уменьшением разности ?? область несовместимости сужается. При ?23 > ?с область несовместимости расширяется как для ? = 0,2, так и для ?? = 0,1 и ?? = 0. Таким образом, для таких систем на совместимость компонентов, в первую очередь, влияет их взаимодействие между собой – чем оно больше, тем лучше они совместимы. Проведенные исследования показали, что парциальные параметры растворимости, учитывающие природу когезионных сил, более объективно характеризуют растворимость пленкообразующих смол в органических растворителях, чем их общий параметр растворимости. Растворимость пленкообразующих алкидных и этерифицированных аминоформальдегидных смол в органических растворителях обусловлена термодинамическим взаимодействием молекулярных сил различной природы. Стабильность смеси алкидной и этерифицированной аминоформальдегидной смолы в бутаноле обусловлена в большей степени термодинамическим взаимодействием молекулярных сил; при этом степень бутанолизации меламиноформальдегидной смолы оказывает наибольшее влияние на стабильность cистемы. Проведенные исследования по стабильности лакокрасочных смесей из различных пленкообразующих смол на основе рассмотренных критериев оценки могут быть использованы для совершенствования технологии защитно-декоративной отделки древесины. The problem of obtaining a homogeneous composition of the coatings is reduced to the proper selection of film-forming agents, and diluent and, if appropriate, diluents and additives. On the basis of the theory of solubility, we have carried out the assessment of the compatibility of the components and stability of such systems. The evaluation criteria were adopted the parameters of the solubility and thermodynamic interaction. Researched the compatibility with alkyd varnishes aminoformaldehyde resin in butanol, and the results of these studies are presented in the triangular phase diagram. To evaluate the compatibility of the resins according to the results of calculation of thermodynamic parameters of interaction were built spinodal for ternary systems. As the analysis of the results of the studies, even when the difference ??|?12 – ?13| = 0,2 there is a small area of incompatibility. With the decrease of the difference ? ? region incompatibility narrows. When ?23> ?с region incompatibility extends to ?? = 0,2, and for ?? = 0.1 and ?? = 0. Thus, for such systems, compatibility of components, primarily, affects their interaction with each other – the further away it is, the better they are compatible. Studies have shown that the partial solubility parameters, which take into account the nature of cohesive forces, more objectively characterize the solubility of film-forming resins in organic solvents than their total solubility parameter. The solubility and film-forming aminoformaldehyde esterified alkyd resins in organic solvents due to thermodynamic interaction of molecular forces of different nature. Тhe stability of the mixture and aminoformaldehyde esterified alkyd resin in butanol is generated largely by thermodynamic forces of molecular interaction; the degree of butanolate melamine-formaldehyde resin has the greatest effect on the stability of the system. Conducted research on the stability of the paint mixtures of various film-forming resins on the basis of the evaluation criteria can be used to improve the technology of protective and decorative wood finish.

The purpose of this study is to explore the stability and interaction between parental pressure and social research report, as well as the role of employment status and family income levels in this process. This study used a special study on Korean children (PSKC) 2–4 waves. Use t-test, correlation and autoregressive cross-delay modeling to analyze the data. The main findings of this study are: First, over time, parental pressure and mother’s social research report are consistent. Secondly, the pressure of motherhood and childcare has an obvious lagging effect on upbringing, and vice versa. Third, there is no significant difference between working mothers and non-working mothers in terms of the stability of working parents' pressure, social research report and social research report for children's pressure channels. However, parental pressure can only predict the social research report of working mothers. Fourth, there is no significant difference between the stability and interaction of these two structures in household income levels. In short, the results show that, over time, parental pressure is consistent with mother’s social research report. The results also show that there is a significant cross-lag effect between the mothers’ perceptions of mutual pressure analysis. In the process from parental pressure to social research report, I found the difference between working and non-working mothers. The advantage of this study is that the expected longitudinal design was adopted during infancy and the priority between the two structures can be considered. The results of this study can be used as a source of intervention plans to help parents withstand severe parenting pressure and lack of social research report.

Precise Time

BeiDou global navigation satellite system (BDS) began to provide positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) services to global users officially on 31 July, 2020. BDS constellations consist of regional (BDS-2) and global navigation satellites (BDS-3). Due to the difference of modulations and characteristics for the BDS-2 and BDS-3 default civil service signals (B1I/B3I) and the increase of new signals (B1C/B2a) for BDS-3, a systemically bias exists in the receiver-end when receiving and processing BDS-2 and BDS-3 signals, which leads to the inter-system bias (ISB) between BDS-2 and BDS-3 on the receiver side. To fully utilize BDS, the BDS-2 and BDS-3 combined precise time and frequency transfer are investigated considering the effect of the ISB. Four kinds of ISB stochastic models are presented, which are ignoring ISB (ISBNO), estimating ISB as random constant (ISBCV), random walk process (ISBRW), and white noise process (ISBWN). The results demonstrate that the datum of receiver clock offsets can be unified and the ISB deduced datum confusion can be avoided by estimating the ISB. The ISBCV and ISBRW models are superior to ISBWN. For the BDS-2 and BDS-3 combined precise time and frequency transfer using ISBNO, ISBCV, ISBRW, and ISBWN, the stability of clock differences of old signals can be enhanced by 20.18%, 23.89%, 23.96%, and 11.46% over BDS-2-only, respectively. For new signals, the enhancements are −50.77%, 20.22%, 17.53%, and −3.69%, respectively. Moreover, ISBCV and ISBRW models have the better frequency transfer stability. Consequently, we recommended the optimal ISBCV or suboptimal ISBRW model for BDS-2 and BDS-3 combined precise time and frequency transfer when processing the old as well as the new signals.

Selected papers based on the presentations at the 16th international conference on functional equations and inequalities, ICFEI, Bȩdlewo, Poland, May 17–23, 2015, Springer, Cham, pp 275–295, 2017) that under the assumption that every function defined on suitable abelian semigroups with values in a normed space such that the norm of its Cauchy difference is bounded by a constant (function) is close to some additive function, i.e., the norm of the difference between the given function and that additive function is also bounded by a constant, the normed space must necessarily be complete. By Schwaiger (Ann Math Sil 34:151–163, 2020) this is also true in the non-archimedean case. Here we discuss the situation when the bound is a suitable non-constant function.

Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is a technique used in semiconductor fabrication for planarizing the top surface of an in-process semiconductor wafer. Especially, Post-CMP thickness variations are known to have a severe impact on the stability of downstream processes and ultimately on device yield. Hence understanding how to quantify and characterize this non-uniformity is significant step towards statistical process control to achieve higher quality and enhanced productivity. The main reason is that the non-uniformed interface between the wafer and the machine-pad adversely affects the polishing performance and ultimate surface uniformity. The purpose of this paper is to suggest a new measure that estimates the uniformity of wafer surface considering the difference of the amount of abrasion between the center and the edge. This new measure which is called the Coefficient of Uniformity is defined as the following ratio: Geometric Mean (GM) / Arithmetic Mean (AM). This metric can be evaluated regionally to quantify the non-uniformity on the wafer surface from the center to the edge. Further simulations show that this new measure is insensitive to shift of the wafer center and sensitive to shift of the wafer edge. This trend indicates that this new measure is a very useful to test the non-uniformity of wafer after CMP polishing.

Summary When a blowout oil/gas well catches fire, usually a flow tube is used to detach the fire from the wellhead and provide appropriate conditions for operating team members to approach the well and install the blowout-preventer (BOP) cap. Using the flow tube above the wellhead creates powerful suction around the tube that may jeopardize the safety of crew members. To reduce the power of suction around the well, a new perforated flow tube instead of simple flow tube was introduced. To understand the effect of this new type of flow tube, modeling and simulation of the flow field around the blowout well were performed for both simple and perforated types of flow tube with Fluent 6.3.26 (2003) and Gambit 2.3.16 (2003) softwares. Different parameters around the well mouth were compared in both designs. The results showed that using the perforated flow tube decreases the vacuum around the well by 33% compared with the simple flow tubes. Thus, application of the perforated flow tube can be recommended in well-control operations for safety measures.

Tilting Pad Journal Bearings

A new dynamic mesh algorithm is developed in this paper to realize the three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method for studying the small clearance transient flow field of tilting pad journal bearings (TPJBs). It is based on a structured grid, ensuring that the total number and the topology relationship of the grid nodes remain unchanged during the dynamic mesh updating process. The displacements of the grid nodes can be precisely recalculated at every time step. The updated mesh maintains high quality and is suitable for transient calculation of large journal displacement in FLUENT. The calculation results, such as the static equilibrium position and the dynamic characteristic coefficients, are consistent with the two-dimensional (2D) solution of the Reynolds equation. Furthermore, in the process of transient analysis, under conditions in which the journal is away from the static equilibrium position, evident differences appear between linearized and transient oil film forces, indicating that the nonlinear transient calculation is more suitable for studying the rotor-bearing system.
