Experimental investigation of solar still with opaque north triangular face

Developing a compact, simple, and productive solar still is a main challenge. This paper describes a simple modification of the solar still that significantly enhances its productivity. A laboratory scale of modified single effect double slope glass solar still with the opaque triangular north wall has been developed and tested for enhancement of productivity in sunny days of the summer season in the month of April. The experiments on still have been carried out under three levels of water depths from 1 to 3 cm and compared it with the performance of conventional still of double slope single effect solar still of the same size. It is clear from the observations that opaque type still gave maximum distillate of 1793 ml at 1 cm depth of water while conventional still could produce only 1519 ml for the same depth of water. Also, for 2 and 3 cm depth of water, the opaque type still found to be more productive than conventional double slope solar still. As the former produced 1532 and 1464 ml while the latter produced 1328 and 1235 ml, for 2 and 3 cm depth of water, respectively.     

基于声发射技术的T700碳纤维/树脂基体界面性能评估

目的 采用声发射技术,对东丽T700碳纤维和2款树脂基体的界面性能进行评估。方法 通过多组单丝拉伸试验,获取T700碳纤维Weibull形状参数m和尺度参数σ₀。使用单纤维断裂方法,利用声发射技术进行监测,选择声发射信号的幅值和能量作为特征,对T700碳纤维和透明的E51环氧树脂及不透明的聚苯硫醚树脂的单纤维断点数量分别进行评估,并与显微镜观察的数量进行对比。结果 获取了T700碳纤维与2种树脂的单纤维断裂声发射信号特征数值。通过声发射监测和显微镜观察法,测量得T700碳纤维与E51环氧树脂的界面剪切强度分别为44.03、46.47 MPa,偏差在5.5%左右。通过声发射技术,测量得T700碳纤维与聚苯硫醚树脂的界面剪切强度达33.43 MPa。结论 使用声发射技术能够准确监测碳纤维/树脂界面中单纤维的断裂信号,为评价纤维和不透明树脂的界面性能提供了有效方法。
