2014年北京市CO浓度水平和时空分布

对北京市地面监测站点的CO浓度进行分析,探讨其浓度水平、变化趋势和时空分布特征。2014年春、夏、秋、冬四季北京市CO平均浓度分别为1.06、0.87、1.34、2.17 mg/m³。CO浓度均呈双峰型变化,第一个峰值出现在07：00-09：00,主要由交通早高峰的排放引起;第二个峰值出现在23：00左右,主要受交通晚高峰排放和夜间边界层高度降低的挤压效应的共同影响。从空间分布来看,全年整体呈现南高北低的分布特征,尤其是秋、冬季较为明显,体现了工业布局和区域传输对CO的影响。从全年来看,湿度对CO浓度的影响最大。对2014年冬季北京市的一次高CO浓度分析结果表明,此次过程是由本地排放和区域传输共同造成的,气象要素中地面气压对CO浓度影响最大。

Optimization of low-temperature drying of laying-hen manure using response surface methodology

ABSTRACT

Manure-drying system using exhausted air from laying hen houses or ambient air has been extensively used in China to dewater the manure for easy transportation and to reduce pathogen levels prior to land application. Due to the climate influence or inappropriate setting of technological parameters, there are some issues in this manure-drying system, such as low dehydration rate, high energy consumption, and high ammonia emission. A purpose-designed experimental drying apparatus was set up to simulate the commercial manure drying system. Drying experiments were carried out to assess the impacts of hot air temperature (15–35°C), air velocity (0.6–1.8 m/s) and manure layer thickness (60–140 mm) on fan’s energy consumption, dehydration rate, and nitrogen loss rate. The response surface analysis method and sub-stepping method was used to analyze the relationships between the response variables and the influence factors. The drying curves were drawn, and the quadratic regression mathematical models that described the relations between the experimental indices and the influence factors were established. The optimal combination of technological parameters for drying laying-hen manure was obtained through conducting a multi-objective function optimization by function-expected optimization. The optimal parameters are as follows: hot air temperature of 35°C, air velocity of 1.60 m/s, and manure layer thickness of 85 mm. The results also indicate that raising the hot air temperature increased the value of synthesis objective function when the hot air temperature was in 26–35°C. The results can provide a theoretical basis for low-temperature drying of laying-hen manure in actual production.

Implications: A large amount of poultry manure is produced yearly in China, which has become a tremendous pressure on the environment when it cannot be utilized as resources. A more sustainable solution using the residual heat from the poultry house ventilation or ambient hot air has been widely used in China. This drying method can significantly reduce energy consumption compared to the traditional way. However, due to the influence of climate or inappropriate setting of technological parameters, issues such as high energy consumption and high ammonia emission still exist in this method. It is necessary to optimize the low-temperature drying process of laying-hen manure, to reduce energy consumption and nitrogen loss rate.     

Effects of mobile phone use on driving performance in a multiresource workload scenario

Objective: This study explores the influence of mobile phone secondary tasks on driving from the perspective of visual, auditory, cognitive, and psychomotor (VACP) multiple resource theory, and it is anticipated to benefit the human-centered design of mobile phone use while driving.

Methods: The present study investigated 6 typical phone use scenarios while driving and analyzed the effects of phone use distractions on driving performance. Thirty-six participants were recruited to participate in this experiment. We abandoned traditional secondary tasks such as conversations or dialing, in which cognitive resources can become interference. Instead, we adopted an arrow secondary task and an n-back delayed digit recall task.

Results: The results show that all mobile phone use scenarios have a significant influence on driving performance, especially on lateral vehicle control. The visual plus psychomotor resource occupation scenario demonstrated the greatest deterioration of driving performance, and there was a significant deterioration of driving speed and steering wheel angle once the psychomotor resource was occupied.

Conclusions: Phone use distraction leads to visual, cognitive, and/or motor resource functional limitations and thus causes lane violations and traffic accidents.
