Specimens from the center and the outer surface of Abee exhibit identical microstructures within their metal phase—platelets of an iron carbide. Thus the entire body must have cooled at a nearly uniform rate. The density, heat capacity, and thermal conductivity have been measured and used in a theoretical heat flow analysis. From these calculations and observations it is concluded that Abee cooled from 700 °C to 200 °C in about two hours.  相似文献

We consider spheres of water ice of about 1 km in radius moving on three different orbits with a common perihelion distance of 8 AU. As evaporation is negligible in these cases, we call them inactive ice bodies. The surface temperature has been numerically calculated for two extreme situations: (1) The spheres are composed of amorphous ice with a heat conduction to the interior presumed to be negligible. (2) The spheres are composed of compact hexagonal ice with a heat conduction coefficient known from laboratory experiments. Whereas in case 1 the temperature is an unambiguous function of heliocentric distance, in case 2 we observe a thermal “hysteresis” and the maximum temperature has a phase lag with respect to perihelion. The perihelion temperature depends on the eccentricity of the orbit. The case of active ice bodies is also discussed. We come to the conclusion that an ice body moving on the orbit of Tempel 2 must contain crystalline ice and the variations of the surface temperature must be smoothed out in an important way. In the case of Halley's orbit, we suppose that the center of the ice body still contains large amounts of amorphous ice.  相似文献

We study Parker instability (PI) operating in a non-adiabatic, gravitationally stratified, interstellar medium. We discuss models with two kinds of heating mechanisms. The first one results from photoionization models. The other, relying on supplemental sources, has been postulated by Reynolds, Haffner & Tufte. The cooling rate, corresponding to radiative losses, is an approximation to the one given by Dalgarno & McCray. An unperturbed state of the system represents a magnetohydrostatic and thermal equilibrium. We perform linear stability analysis by solving the boundary value problem. We find that the maximum growth rate of PI rises for increasing magnitudes of non-adiabatic effects. In the pure photoionization model, the maximum growth rate of the general non-adiabatic case coincides with the isothermal limit. Adding other sources of heat leads to a maximum growth rate that is larger than the one corresponding to the isothermal limit. We find that the influence of the supplemental heating on PI also leads to a decrease in temperature in magnetic valleys. Finally, we conclude that the initial gas cooling due to the action of PI may promote a subsequent onset of thermal instability in magnetic valleys and formation of giant molecular clouds.  相似文献

We think that a steady material exchange in the upper solar atmosphere can act as a heat engine that cools the corona and heats the corona-chromosphere transition region. We have considered heat conduction from the corona and radiation loss in the transition region and have calculated the temperature, density and velocity distributions in the transition region. Also discussed is the relation between the material flux, the velocity boundary value and the thickness of the transition region.  相似文献

Abstract— Asteroid thermal models have typically employed a constant value of specific heat capacity, although this parameter is a function of temperature. We examine whether incorporation of the temperature dependence of specific heat capacity is a necessary refinement and find that including it produces considerable differences in thermal history. Though the temperature effect is demonstrated in a representative calculation for a chondritic asteroid with 26Al decay as a heat source, this result also has implications for asteroidal thermal models based on electromagnetic induction heating or heating by impact, as well as for thermal models of the terrestrial planets.  相似文献

It is shown that the influences of the thermal and tidal effects on Mercury's libration are in equilibrium with the periods of rotation and revolution of Mercury locked in the 32 resonant state. The suggestion by Liu that the solar gravitational couple on the thermal bulges accelerates Mercury's rotation is investigated and the production of mechanical energy to balance the dissipation of the bodily tides is discussed. It is possible for Mercury to rotate with two bulges as a solar thermal engine; the tidal effect causes this engine to function and its maximum power is close to 1016 ergs per sec.  相似文献

In this study, heat waves at three meteorological stations in Serbia were analyzed based on the daily maximum temperature during the summer (June, July and August). The warmest summers as regards heat wave duration and severity occurred within the periods 1951–1952, 1987–1998 (especially 1994) and 2000–2007. The longest heat waves were recorded in 1952, lasting 16 days in Smederevska Palanka and 21 days in Ni?, while in 1994 in Belgrade lasting 18 days. The summer of 1994 in Belgrade and Smederevska Palanka, and 2003 in Ni? were characterized with the highest number of consecutive tropical days (21 and 29, respectively).The autoregressive-moving-average models were applied to generate long series of the daily maximum temperature, from which the relative frequencies of heat waves were estimated. The relationships between the longest heat waves, and the circulation conditions were analyzed using the subjective Hess–Brezowsky catalogue of weather types.  相似文献

Magma genesis in the Moon could have been significantly altered by large impacts if they melted solidified residual liquids and late cumulates from the ‘magma ocean’. Calculations of the heat required to melt these materials, under different assumed conditions, are compared to estimates of the total kinetic energy of the Imbrium impact. For a significant amount of these materials to have been melted, they must have been near their solidus temperatures, the impacts must have been very large, and the lunar lithosphere must have been locally heated at depths of 70 to 140 km. Unless the Imbrium impact released at least the maximum estimated kinetic energy, only larger impacts, e.g., the proposed ‘Gargantuan’ impact, could have augmented the intrinsic lunar heat budget enough to locally alter the abundance, timing of eruption, and chemical compositions of lunar magmas. The mechanical and thermal energy generated by such an impact could have been critical in creating (1) the higher concentrations of radioactive elements in the Imbrium/Procellarum area by migration of residual liquids driven by differential lithospheric thickness; and (2) hybrid mare basalts (representing varying proportions of late cumulates and/or residual liquids incorporated into primitive magmas rising from the partially molten lunar interior). Complete compositional spectra of lunar basalts are to be expected, from primitive mare basalts to pure KREEP and to Ti-rich varieties. Comparison of the Gargantuan/Imbrium area with ancient basins in the eastern nearside area suggests that the interplay between the Moon's internal heat engine and the timing of large impacts was a crucial factor in determining the time of tunar volcanism and the chemical composition of the lavas.  相似文献

In continuation of an earlier study of the influence of phase transitions on the thermal behavior of cometary nuclei, the heat flux into nuclei at various distances from the Sun before and after perihelion has been investigated for the isothermal case and for the fixed subsolar point. It turns out that this heat flux may be a large fraction of the incident solar heat input, so that the surface temperature and the associated rate of evaporation are lower than usually calculated. The effect is strongly dependent on the porosity of the nucleus. The surface temperature of the nucleus reaches a maximum after perihelion, as does the size of the coma, in agreement with several observations. The denser surface layers made either of ice or of dust may break away. An ideal, initially homogeneous and spherical nucleus cannot remain isothermal so that it must gradually develop considerable surface nonuniformities through localized phase changes, evaporation, and break-away. An explanation of the splitting of comets as far as 9 AU from the Sun is suggested in terms of heating of a CO2-rich inclusion in a nucleus.  相似文献

Thermal transfer in closed magnetic tubes in the corona and transition region is described on the basis of a static model in which all heat generated is radiated away, though conduction transfers much of the heat to the transition region prior to emission. The rate of conductive transfer depends on the cross-section of the magnetic tube as it passes through the chromosphere and transition region. This is derived from the pressure in the normal chromosphere. There is then only one main parameter to establish conditions in the corona and transition region, viz. the heating per unit area of the Sun's surface, which must equal the observed radiation from corona and transition region. The density adjusts itself so as to radiate away all heat generated within the tube; conditions in the tube below the transition region have little influence other than to decide where the base of the transition region lies and the width of the region particularly in its lower parts. For the observed rate of heating, the computed densities (or pressures), the ratio of coronal to transition region emissions, and the distribution of radiation in the EUV spectrum agree closely with those observed. The optimum maximum temperatures are found with heating concentrated in the highest regions of the flux tubes. It is only in the lowest 20–40 km of the transition region, where T<105K, that any additional heating is needed to explain EUV line intensities. The equation of heat transfer also has solutions in which the temperature is oscillatory with disance. These do not apply to the normal corona, but may be relevant to prominences.  相似文献

In this paper, the development of heat flow probes for measuring the geothermal gradient and conductivity of lunar regolith are presented. These two measurements are the required information for determining the heat flow of a planetary body. Considering the Moon as an example, heat flow properties are very important information for studying the radiogenic isotopes, the thermal evolution and differentiation history, and the mechanical properties of the interior. In order to obtain the best measurements, the sensors must be extended to a depth of at least 3 m, i.e. beyond the depth of significant thermal cycles. Two approaches to heat flow deployment and measurement are discussed in this paper: a percussive approach and a pneumatic approach. The percussive approach utilizes a high frequency hammer to drive a cone penetrometer into the lunar simulant. Ring-like thermal sensors (heaters and temperature sensors) on the penetrometer rod are deployed into the simulant every 30 cm as the penetrometer penetrates to the required 3 m depth. Once the target depth has been achieved, the deployment rod is removed from the simulant, eliminating any thermal path to the lander. The pneumatic approach relies on pressurized gas to excavate, using a cone-shaped nozzle to penetrate the simulant. The nozzle is attached to a coiled stem with thermal sensors embedded along the length of the stem. As the simulant is being lofted out of the hole by the escaping gas, the stem is progressively reeled out from a spool, thus moving the cone deeper into the hole. Thermal conductivity is measured using a needle probe attached to the end of the cone. Breadboard prototypes of these two heat flow probe systems have been constructed and successfully tested under lunar-like conditions to approximately 70 cm, which was the maximum possible depth allowed by the size of the test bin and the chamber.  相似文献

We examine the role of the crust heat capacity on the cooling history of a neutron star. We find that taking into account the non-uniform structure of the crust, a sizeable increase in the heat diffusion time should be expected.  相似文献

An analytical study is performed to examine the heat transfer characteristics on the flow of a viscous, incompressible rarefied gas in a parallel plate channel under the action of transverse magnetic field when (i) suction velocity normal to the plate is constant, (ii) the second plate oscillates in time about a constant non-zero mean, (iii) fluid is subjected to a constant heat source of absorption type. Apprximate solutions for velocity, temperature, phase, and amplitude of skin-friction and rate of heat transfer are evaluated. Mean temperature profiles, phase and amplitude of rate of heat transfer at both plates are discussed graphically followed by a quantitative discussion. Mean rate of heat transfer is tabulated in Table I.  相似文献

The interaction between a large meteoroid and the atmosphere is modeled as its destruction into a cloud of fragments and vapors moving with a common shock wave. Under the action of aerodynamic forces the shape of this cloud is deformed—it is expanded in the direction transverse to the motion and compressed in the longitudinal direction. With allowance for the pressure distribution over the surface of a body varying its shape (it is assumed that the sphere is transformed into a flattened spheroid), the relation for the rate of increase in the midsection radius of a fragmented meteoroid has been obtained. This rate significantly depends on the degree of the meteoroid flattening which leads to a significantly smaller increase in the transverse size of the meteoroid along the trajectory as compared to similar models used in the literature where the influence of the body shape was not considered. The proposed model also takes into account the change in the density of the cloud of fragments due to an increase in gaps between them. An approximate analytical solution of equations of the physical theory of meteors with drag and heat transfer coefficients varying along the trajectory has been obtained for a fragmented meteoroid. The interaction of the Chelyabinsk meteoroid with the atmosphere is modeled and the solution obtained for the energy release curve is compared with the observational data.  相似文献

The tectonic style of a terrestrial planet depends strongly on the mechanisms of heat release from the mantle through the lithosphere to the surface. Three types of lithospheric heat transfer have been proposed. (1) Lithospheric conduction, (2) (hot spot) volcanism, (3) plate recycling (mainly at spreading plate margins). In the case of the Earth the total heat flow is determined by plate recycling 65%, heat conduction through the lithosphere 20%, decay of radioactive elements in the crust 15%, hot spot volcanism <1%. Scaling the mean surface heat flow density of the Earth to venusian conditions leads to 66 mW/m2. In the case of Venus plate tectonics play only a minor role. Thus, two processes remain for heat release: (hot spot) volcanism and conduction. The term hot spot is written in brackets because volcanism on Venus occurs globally, not necessarily associated with hot spots.The volcanic lava production has been estimated from Venera 15/16 scenes. Arecibo and Magellan images revealed that the surface character south of 30° N is very similar to the area covered by Venera. The main results of the estimation are: (i) The maximum thickness of the plain lavas is 3 km. (ii) With plain lava thicknesses larger than 200 m the lava production from central volcanoes is negligible, (iii) Two age models have been used for the mean age of the area obseved: t 1 = 109 a, t 2 = 400 x 106 a. t 1 leads to the maximum lava production rate of 3 km3/a compared to 20 to 25 km3/a of the Earth; this gives a maximum contribution of 0.75mW/m2 to the heat flow density of Venus, i.e. about 1%. This implies that either heat conduction is the only dominating process for heat release or there is a hidden reservoir of the missing basalt somewhere or there is another unknown tectonic process. Assuming pure conduction and correcting the surface heat flow density for radioactive elements in the crust leads to a thickness of the thermal lithosphere of 45km. A reservoir for the missing basalt could be basaltic underplating to a depth of 100 km. This gives a contribution of about 20 mW/m2 with the age model t 2 to the heat flow density from first order calculations.While the tectonic style of the Earth can be described to be linear formed at the plate margins, the surface of Venus is characterized by global spotty volcanism. The surface is more dominated by volcanic landforms than in the case of the Earth despite the relatively low lava production rate with a maximum of 3 km3/a. As plate tectonics is a minor process on Venus, conduction through a rather thin lithosphere should play an important role for heat release.Contribution No. 437, Institut für Geophysik der Universität Kiel, Germany.  相似文献

The near-infrared output of the nucleus of NGC 1068 increased by a factor of two over the 18 years between 1976 and 1994 and has recently started to decline. It is not clear whether this event has been the response of an extended dusty region to a single outburst in the central engine or is the result of a continuous change in its XUV output. The integrated energy of the event amounts to well over 1052 erg and thus cannot be due to a single supernova. The variable part of the infrared flux from NGC 1068, observed through an aperture of constant diameter, is found to have a constant spectral shape. Comparison with similar data from other Seyfert galaxies shows that the variable infrared component in NGC 1068 is reddened by about 20 mag in Av if the emission mechanism is similar in all cases. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

The maximum size of impact craters on finite bodies marks the largest impact that can occur short of impact induced disruption of the body. Recently attention has started to focus on large craters on small bodies such as asteroids and rocky and icy satellites. Here the large crater on the recently imaged Asteroid (2867) Steins (with crater diameter to mean asteroid radius ratio of 0.79) is shown to follow a limit set by other similar sized bodies with moderate macroporosity (i.e. fractured asteroids). Thus whilst large, the crater size is not novel, nor does it require Steins to possess an extremely large porosity. In one of the components of the binary Asteroid (90) Antiope there is the recently reported presence of an extremely large depression, possibly a crater, with depression diameter to mean asteroid radius ratio of ∼(1.4–1.62). This is consistent with the maximum size of a crater expected from previous observations of very porous rocky bodies (i.e. rubble-pile asteroids). Finally, a relationship between crater diameter (normalised to body radius) is proposed as a function of body porosity which suggests that the doubling of porosity between fractured asteroids and rubble-pile asteroids, nearly doubles the size (D/R value) of the largest crater sustainable on a rocky body.  相似文献
