Direct numerical simulation of the motion of circular pollutant particles in Newtonian fluid

An improved implementation of distributed multiplier/fictitious domain method is presented for the direct numerical simulation of particulate flow. The key improvement is to replace a finite-element triangulation for the velocity and a “twice-coarser“ triangulation for the pressure with a rectangular discretization for the velocity and pressure. For code validation, the sedimentation of a single particle in a twodimensional channel was simulated. The results showed that the simulation is independent of the mesh size as well as the time step. The comparison between experimental data and this simulation showed that our code can give a more accurate simulation on the motion of particlesthan previous DLM code. The code was then applied to simulate the sedimentation of 600 particles in a rectangular box. The falling course ispresented and discussed. At the same time, this simulation also demonstrates that the method presented in this paper can be used for solving the initial problems involving a lager number of particles exaclly with computing durations kept at acceptable levels.     

挡烟垂壁作用下狭长通道内烟气输运特征研究

为揭示挡烟垂壁对狭长通道火灾烟气特征及温度分布的影响,运用火灾动力学软件FDS,研究了狭长通道内不同高度挡烟垂壁下火灾烟流运动行为,重点探讨了密度跳跃过程及近火源区烟气特征参数变化。结果表明:挡烟垂壁增加了密度跳跃中翻滚区的长度,缩小了卷吸空气范围,造成烟气质量流率相应减少;挡烟垂壁对烟气垂直速度分布的影响主要作用在挡烟区,且与垂壁高度有关;垂高大于0.3 m,受挡烟垂壁高度影响,在垂直高度1.5~2 m位置出现一定速度的烟气逆流,速度分布曲线呈现与无挡烟垂壁不同的凹陷区,非挡烟区烟气垂直速度服从高斯分布;与无挡烟垂壁相比,挡烟垂壁上游顶棚附近温度普遍增高,下游温度衰减速率随挡烟垂壁高度的增加而加快。

污染物负荷与组成对潜流人工湿地脱氮效果影响研究

为研究污染物负荷与组成对人工湿地系统脱氮效果的影响,在构建小试湿地试验装置的基础上,使用模拟污水进行了TN去除试验．试验的影响因素包括：水力学停留时间,单一污染物负荷量,P（C）：P（N）,TN组成,有机质（以COD计）-氨氮-硝氮比例等。其中,3种污染物最佳比例试验采用正交试验法进行。停留时间试验、单一负荷试验、p（C）：p（N）试验、TN组成试验得到各自的变化趋势,并能够用人工湿地基本理论解释。正交试验确定的3种污染物的最佳比例质量浓度为：有机质：氨氮：硝氮=20：3：3。结论认为．湿地脱除污染物的不同机理是影响TN去除效果根本原因。氨氮的去除主要是依靠好氧微生物的作用．硝氮的去除则主要依靠反硝化菌的作用．并需要充足的碳源。TN组成问题应综合考虑氨氮和硝氮的负荷总量和水力学停留时间,3种污染物对TN去除影响的主次顺序为：氨氮〉硝氮〉有机质．最优方案的理论TN去除率达到92．26％。此外．可能还存在着其它重要的影响人工湿地TN去除率的因素。     

铅元素人为循环环境释放物形态分析

环境中铅污染物来自于物质人为循环的环境释放,铅释放物的形态差异意味着其在环境介质中迁移和转化的起始状态不同.确定铅元素人为循环环境释放物的形态,可以为环境风险评估和源头管理提供科学依据.本研究通过追踪铅元素人为循环流动过程,应用物理化学分析方法,辨识生命周期各阶段环境释放物中铅元素的形态,并以2010年为例,定量分析中国铅元素人为循环中环境释放物的形态分布特征.结果表明,2010年中国铅人为循环中环境释放物主要形态表现为PbSO4,约占总量的23.4%;其次是PbO、Pb和PbCO3,共占总释放量的46.2%.国内每消费1 kt精铅,将向环境释放547.9 t的铅,这些环境释放物中73.3%来源于产品使用阶段和废物处置与回收阶段;从形态看,PbSO4占释放物的量为128.2 t,主要来源于生产阶段和废物处置与回收阶段,PbO、Pb和PbCO3则分别主要来源于废物处置与回收、产品使用和生产几个阶段.

Spatiotemporal Evaluation of Simulated Evapotranspiration and Streamflow over Texas Using the WRF‐Hydro‐RAPID Modeling Framework

This study assesses a large‐scale hydrologic modeling framework (WRF‐Hydro‐RAPID) in terms of its high‐resolution simulation of evapotranspiration (ET) and streamflow over Texas (drainage area: 464,135 km²). The reference observations used include eight‐day ET data from MODIS and FLUXNET, and daily river discharge data from 271 U.S. Geological Survey gauges located across a climate gradient. A recursive digital filter is applied to decompose the river discharge into surface runoff and base flow for comparison with the model counterparts. While the routing component of the model is pre‐calibrated, the land component is uncalibrated. Results show the model performance for ET and runoff is aridity‐dependent. ET is better predicted in a wet year than in a dry year. Streamflow is better predicted in wet regions with the highest efficiency ~0.7. In comparison, streamflow is most poorly predicted in dry regions with a large positive bias. Modeled ET bias is more strongly correlated with the base flow bias than surface runoff bias. These results complement previous evaluations by incorporating more spatial details. They also help identify potential processes for future model improvements. Indeed, improving the dry region streamflow simulation would require synergistic enhancements of ET, soil moisture and groundwater parameterizations in the current model configuration. Our assessments are important preliminary steps towards accurate large‐scale hydrologic forecasts.     

Streamflow Depletion Modeling: Methods for an Adaptable and Conjunctive Water Management Decision Support Tool

Groundwater pumping depletes streamflow, which can have significant ecological impacts depending on the magnitude of depletion relative to environmental flow needs. Streamflow depletion estimates from groundwater pumping have been quantified using both analytical and numerical methods, but are not routinely compared to environmental flow needs or used in practical water management tools. Decision support tools that incorporate groundwater dynamics are becoming increasingly necessary for water managers as groundwater regulations become more important in environmental policy, particularly concerning the preservation of environmental flow needs. We develop and apply methods for a web‐based decision support tool for conjunctive groundwater and surface water management, demonstrated using a case study watershed in British Columbia, Canada. Open‐source data are analyzed with a combination of spatial algorithms and previously developed analytical models, such that the tool can be applied to other regions. Streamflow depletion estimates are calculated in four regions in the largely undeveloped Bulkley Valley, British Columbia. Our transparent methodology has geographic and data input flexibility which is a significant improvement on currently existing water management tool methods.
