Comparison Between Heat Pipe and Direct Heat Exchange Solar Louvre Collectors

International concern about the environmental implications of climate change coupled with increasing demand for energy to fuel modern society has lead to growing interest in using renewable energy sources as alternatives to conventional sources. The work presented in this paper compares two types of solar collector integrated into louvred shading devices. In addition to protecting glazed spaces in buildings from excessive solar gain, the collector would provide the flexibility to produce systems customized for collecting heat over a temperature-range appropriate to particular building services applications at various climates/locations. This would allow considerable savings to be made in primary energy consumption and lead to a reduction in global warming impact. Two solar absorbers, based on different techniques of heat exchange, were tested experimentally. The first was based on a direct heat exchange technique, and the second used heat pipe technology. Various comparisons were made and it was concluded that the heat pipe solar louvre collector was the preferred device.     

Modeling of Low Temperature Geothermal District Heating Systems

Abstract

In this work, low temperature geothermal district heating systems with heat pumps have been studied and compared with fuel-oil boiler heating systems for intermittent and continuous regimes according to the optimum indoor air temperature and operational cost. Izmir Institute of Technology (IZTECH) Campus is taken as a case study. Various heat pump and boiler configurations are studied to meet required duty. Operational cost analysis for each alternative is conducted. According to the results, for IZTECH Campus the best alternative, which gives the optimum indoor air temperature and the lowest operational cost, is heat pump continuous regime.

Urban climate in the Tokyo metropolitan area in Japan

Long-term climate changes related with urbanization in Tokyo, Japan, and recent temperature and heavy rainfall distribution in the Tokyo metropolitan area are reviewed. A relatively high temperature increase in annual mean temperature at the rate of 3.0°C/century was detected in Tokyo for the period 1901–2015. Some observational evidence showed the existence of both thermal and mechanical effects of urbanization on recent heavy rainfall occurrences, and modeling studies also support precipitation enhancement. Urban influences were recognized in other climatological elements, such as number of fog days, relative humidity, and wind circulation.

研究中国保护性耕作净碳汇的时空格局对其推广政策的合理制定具有重要意义。在分析保护性耕作固碳排碳机理和构建其测度方法的基础上,以中国各省（市、自治区）为单元,对2000—2019年中国保护性耕作净碳汇的时空格局进行分析,并对其潜力进行预测。结果表明：（1）每年保护性耕作的碳汇基本都是碳排的2倍,土壤固碳占保护性耕作碳汇的2/3以上,生物固碳占比小于1/3。（2）中国保护性耕作净碳汇在时间上呈现逐年递增趋势,其中,华北、西北和东南地区增幅较大;在空间上表现为扩张—集聚—扩张态势,其重心由北向南移动。（3）中国保护性耕作净碳汇具有明显的空间非均衡性特征,2019年呈现华北、西北和东南地区“三足鼎立”之格局,河南、山东、内蒙古、新疆、安徽、湖北和江西7省区属于高碳汇区,河北、吉林、陕西和山西属于低碳汇区,其他省份属于碳中和区。（4）2020—2030年中国保护性耕作的净碳汇潜力继续保持增长态势,2030年的峰值将处于5794.38万~7962.93万t C之间。     

Dynamic model for a heat exchanger tube rupture discharging a high-pressure flashing liquid into a low-pressure liquid-filled shell

Shell-tube type heat exchangers are often used to exchange heat between a high-pressure fluid and a low-pressure fluid. The pressure difference between these two fluids could be significantly high. In the event of a partial or full rupture of a tube, a problem may arise in that a transient pressure rise phenomenon could occur due to the flashing of the high-pressure sub-cooled fluid in the tube into the low-pressure shell, which may cause the shell to rupture with subsequent damage to equipment. This paper presents a dynamic model to describe the transient phenomenon occurring on the shell side following various scenarios of tube rupture. The spatial and temporal aspects of the flow transients along the pressure safety valve riser are accounted for by solving the one-dimensional continuity and momentum hyperbolic partial differential equations as applied to the liquid-filled riser. The dynamics of the attached piping system are also accounted for via two mechanistic models; the first is based on an inertial-resistive assumption of the fluids in this system, while the other is based on the assumption of anechoic perturbations passing through a long section of the attached piping. The latter is justified in cases where the attached piping is long enough such that reflections from the downstream end do not interfere with transients occurring in the shell during the initial phase of fluid flashing into the shell side following rupture. The various phases of this phenomenon are described, however the paper focuses on the initial phase of the phenomenon during which shell overpressure may be encountered. The model is applied to two ethylene heaters in tandem; the first uses propylene on the shell side to heat the ethylene on the tube side, while the second uses methanol, also on the shell side. The ratio between the shell design pressure to the tube design pressure in these two heaters are 0.169 and 0.154, respectively, hence the motivation to accurately model the transients involved in this phenomenon. The practical aspects and discussion around techniques to alleviate potential overpressure scenarios due to tube rupture are emphasized throughout the paper.

黄土区典型小流域矿物化学风化及碳汇效应

黄土中蕴含了巨大的碳库,黄土中碳的转移对区域乃至全球碳循环具有重要影响。本文选择山西省临县一典型黄土小流域青凉寺沟流域进行调查分析,研究黄土水的化学特征及离子来源,分析黄土矿物的溶蚀过程及碳汇效应,并利用正演模型和水化学方法估算不同矿物的离子贡献比例及流域碳汇通量。结果发现,研究区黄土化学成分的含量由高到低依次为SiO_2、Al_2O_3、CaO、Fe_2O_3、MgO、K_2O、Na_2O,表现出贫SiO_2、Fe_2O_3,富CaO、MgO的特点;黄土水的pH呈中性偏碱,阴离子主要以HCO_3~-为主,阳离子以Na~+为主,水化学类型为重碳酸-钠型(HCO_3~--Na~+),水化学组成与黄土的化学组成相对应;流域内不同端元离子来源贡献计算结果表明,大气沉降、人类输入、蒸发盐矿物、硅酸盐矿物和碳酸盐矿物化学风化贡献的溶解物质分别占总溶解物质的1. 66%、6. 32%、10. 38%、62. 23%、19. 31%;黄土区长时间的水-矿物作用是硅酸盐矿物溶解贡献占主导的主要原因,阳离子置换反应、土壤-盐分浸出与蒸发以及人类输入对硅酸盐矿物溶解也有一定的贡献;受黄土区相对低温少雨的影响,黄土矿物的平均化学风化速率较低,为9. 31 t/(km~2·a),低于全球岩石的化学风化速率平均值36 t/(km~2·a),但是其消耗大气CO_2的速率较高,约为6. 34 t CO_2/(km2·a),明显高于同纬度三川河岩溶流域的碳汇速率(5. 28 t CO_2/(km~2·a));利用水化学径流法计算的青凉寺沟黄土小流域的矿物化学风化的大气CO_2消耗量为0. 18×10~4t/a,为中国黄土区大气CO_2消耗量的估算提供基础数据。
