Air/water two-phase flow test tunnel for airfoil studies     

H. Ohashi  Y. Matsumoto  Y. Ichikawa  T. Tsukiyama 《Mineralium Deposita》1994,29(1):249-256

A test tunnel for the study of airfoil performances under air/water two-phase flow condition has been designed and constructed. This facility will serve for a better understanding of the flow phenomena and characteristics of hydraulic machinery under gas/ liquid two-phase flow operating conditions. At the test section of the tunnel, a two-dimensional isolated airfoil or a cascade of airfoils is installed in a two-phase inlet flow with a uniform velocity (up to 10 m/s) and void fraction (up to 12%) distribution. The details of the tunnel structure and the measuring systems are described and the basic characteristics of the constructed tunnel are also given. As an example of the test results, void fraction distribution around a test airfoil is shown.Dedicated to the 60th Birthday of Professor Klaus Gersten  相似文献   

Polysynthetically-twinned structures of enstatite and wollastonite     

Yoshikazu Ohashi 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1984,10(5):217-229

Crystal structures of clinoenstatite, orthoenstatite, wollastonite-1T and wollastonite-2M (parawollastonite) were refined to an R factor 3–4 percent level. Molar volumes at room temperature are 31.270(15), 31.315(8), 39.842(5) and 39.901(10) cm³/MSiO₃, in the above-mentioned order, indicating that one-layer polytypes (clinoenstatite and wollastonite-1T) are stable at higher pressures than two-layer polytypes (orthoenstatite and wollastonite-2M). The polytypic relation of the enstatite polytypes can be described by four twinning operations — b glide ∥ to (110), a glide ∥ to (001), twofold screw axis ∥ to a (of orthoenstatite) and a twofold screw axis ∥ to c. For the wollastonite polytypes, twinning operations are twofold screw axis ∥ to b and a glide ∥ to (010). Structural adjustments after twinning are not necessarily the largest at the twin boundary (true in enstatite but not so in wollastonite). In both cases octahedral sites that involve bridging oxygens tend to show relatively large changes. Lattice strain ellipsoids associated with twinning are also different for enstatite and wollastonite, which implies that wollastonite may react differently from enstatite to non-hydrostatic pressure.  相似文献   

The distribution of Fe3+ and Ga3+ between two tetrahedral sites in melilites,Ca2(Mg,Fe3+, Ga,Si)3O7     

Masahide Akasaka  Haruo Ohashi  Isamu Shinno 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1986,13(3):152-155

The distribution of Fe³⁺ and Ga³⁺ between the two tetrahedral sites in three synthetic melilites has been studied by using ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. In the melilite, (Ca₂Ga₂SiO₇)₅₀ (Ca₂Fe³⁺GaSiO₇)₅₀ (mol %), the distribution of Fe³⁺ and Ga³⁺ in T1 and T2 sites is apparently random, which can be explained in terms of the electrostatic valence rule. However in the melilites, (Ca₂MgSi₂O₇)₅₂ (Ca₂Fe³⁺GaSiO₇)₄₂ (Ca₂Ga₂SiO₇)₆ and (Ca₂MgSi₂O₇)₆₂ (Ca₂Fe³⁺GaSiO₇)₃₆ (Ca₂Ga₂SiO₇)₂ (mol %), Fe³⁺ shows preference for the more ionic T1 site and Ga³⁺ for the more covalent T2 site. If the electronegativity of Ga³⁺ is assumed to be larger than that of Fe³⁺, the mode of distribution of Fe³⁺ and Ga³⁺ can be explained in terms of our previous hypothesis that a large electronegativity induces a stronger preference for the more covalent T2 site.  相似文献   

Synthesis of highly dense and fine-grained aggregates of mantle composites by vacuum sintering of nano-sized mineral powders     

Sanae Koizumi  Takehiko Hiraga  Chihiro Tachibana  Miki Tasaka  Tomonori Miyazaki  Tamio Kobayashi  Asako Takamasa  Naoki Ohashi  Satoru Sano 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》2010,37(8):505-518

Synthesized mineral powders with particle size of <100 nm are vacuum sintered to obtain highly dense and fine-grained polycrystalline mantle composites: single phase aggregates of forsterite (iron-free), olivine (iron containing), enstatite and diopside; two-phase composites of forsterite + spinel and forsterite + periclase; and, three-phase composites of forsterite + enstatite + diopside. Nano-sized powders of colloidal SiO₂ and highly dispersed Mg(OH)₂ with particle size of ≤50 nm are used as chemical sources for MgO and SiO₂, which are common components for all of the aggregates. These powders are mixed with powders of CaCO₃, MgAl₂O_4, and Fe(CO₂CH₃)₂ to introduce mineral phases of diopside, spinel, and olivine to the aggregates, respectively. To synthesize highly dense composites through pressureless sintering, we find that calcined powders should be composed of particles that have: (1) fully or partially reacted to the desired minerals, (2) a size of <100 nm and (3) less propensity to coalesce. Such calcined powders are cold isostatically pressed and then vacuum sintered. The temperature and duration of the sintering process are tuned to achieve a balance between high density and fine grain size. Highly dense (i.e., porosity ≤1 vol%) polycrystalline mantle mineral composites with grain size of 0.3–1.1 μm are successfully synthesized with this method.  相似文献   

Evaluation of urban thermal environments in commercial and residential spaces in Okayama City, Japan, using the wet-bulb globe temperature index     

Y. Ohashi  T. Kawabe  Y. Shigeta  Y. Hirano  H. Kusaka  H. Fudeyasu  K. Fukao 《Theoretical and Applied Climatology》2009,95(3-4):279-289

We estimated wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT) using measured meteorological data to understand the bioclimates of human living spaces during the summer season. Our research focused on commercial and residential areas of Okayama City, Japan (population ～700,000). The commercial spaces (CO) mainly consisted of multi-story office buildings, whereas the residential spaces (RE) consisted of one- or two-story residential buildings. On a fine day with southeast winds, the spatially averaged WBGT measured in the CO was higher than that in the RE. The difference was statistically significant and would have caused noticeable discomfort and a high risk of heat disorder for occupants of the CO over the long term. For instance, at 1900 Japan Standard Time (JST), the maximum difference in the WBGT between the CO and RE sites was 2.0°C (23.5°C for the CO and 21.5°C for the RE). From 1800 to 1900 JST, the wet-bulb temperature in the CO was still 1.5–2.0°C higher than that in the RE, even though both areas had the same dry-bulb temperature. This indicates that the CO retained greater amounts of water vapor for longer periods compared to the RE. The wet-bulb temperature in the CO increased rapidly at most observation points when the southeast sea breeze arrived. In contrast, in the RE, the wet-bulb temperature decreased until evening. This difference was caused by moist air transported from a river about 1 km upwind from the CO. The moist air forced an increase in the WBGT and elevated the risk of heat disorder in the CO. The spatially averaged globe temperature of the CO at 1500 JST was 6.2°C lower than that at the RE, causing the WBGT of the CO to decrease. The results suggest that the higher WBGT in the CO was caused by higher wet-bulb temperatures. On a day with southwest winds, the CO and RE showed no difference in WBGT because the river was not included in the upwind source area.  相似文献   

Observational signature of planet formation: The ALMA view     

Nagayoshi Ohashi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2008,313(1-3):101-107

Protoplanetary disks are the most probable sites where planet formation takes place. According to theory, planet formation in protoplanetary disks should show remarkable signatures, such as a gap/hole or a spiral structure. In fact, recent high-angular and high-sensitivity observations in millimeter and submillimeter wavelengths, as well as optical/near-IR wavelengths, have shown such structures in protoplanetary disks. Two particular examples of such disks around AB Aurigae and HD 142527 are discussed here, with an emphasis on results obtained using the Submillimeter Array. These disks—and their probable planet formation—will be very important future targets for ALMA to study the physical process of planet formation in detail.  相似文献   

Statistical properties of metal abundances of the intracluster medium in the central region of clusters     

Y. Fukazawa  K. Makishima  T. Tamura  K. Nakazawa  H. Ezawa  Y. Ikebe  K. Kikuchi  T. Ohashi 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2000,313(1):21-31

We measured metal abundances of the intracluster medium in the central regions of 34 nearby clusters of galaxies, using ASCA data. Clusters that have a sharp X-ray emission centred on a cD galaxy are commonly found to exhibit a central increment in the Fe abundance, which is more pronounced in lower temperature clusters; +(0.1–0.2) solar at kT >5 keV, compared with +(0.2–0.3) solar at 1.5< kT <4 keV. These central excess metals are thought to be ejected from cD galaxies. Several low-temperature cD type clusters also show significant Si abundance increase by +(0.1–0.2) solar at the central region. Compared with the Si-rich abundances observed in the outer regions of rich clusters, the Si to Fe abundance ratio of central excess metals tends to be near the solar ratio, implying that type Ia products from cD galaxies are dominant for the central excess metals. On the other hand, some other clusters do not show the central Fe abundance increase. As these clusters tend to contain two or three central giant galaxies, it is suggested that galaxy interactions have removed the central abundance increase.  相似文献   

Observations of disks around protostellar sources with nobeyama millimeter array     

Nagayoshi Ohashi  Masahiko Hayashi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1995,224(1-2):13-16

We present results from a survey observation of circumstellar disks around protostellar sources associated with the Taurus molecular cloud. Our result shows that the 98 GHz continuum emission tends to be weaker for embedded sources than for visible T Tauri stars, which is consistent with our previous interpretation of disk formation. Direct observations of the formation of a centrifugally supported viscous accretion disk around HL Tau is discussed.  相似文献   

(Na,Ca)(Ti3+,Mg)Si2O6-clinopyroxenes at high pressure: influence of cation substitution on elastic behavior and phase transition     

Angela Ullrich  Ronald Miletich  Tonci Balic-Zunic  Lars Olsen  Fabrizio Nestola  Manfred Wildner  Haruo Ohashi 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》2010,37(1):25-43

A compressional study of (Na,Ca)(Ti³⁺,Mg)Si₂O₆-clinopyroxenes was carried out at high pressures between 10⁻⁴ and 10.2 GPa using in situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy and optical absorption spectroscopy. Compressional discontinuities accompanied by structural changes, in particular, the appearance of two distinct Ti³⁺–Ti³⁺ distances within the octahedral chains at 4.37 GPa, provide evidence for the occurrence of a phase transition in NaTi³⁺Si₂O₆. Equation-of-state parameters are K ₀ = 115.9(7) GPa with K′ = −0.9(3) and K ₀ = 102.7(8) GPa with K′ = 4.08(5) for the low- and high-pressure range, respectively. The transition involves a C2/c–P [`1] \overline{1} symmetry change, which can be confirmed by the occurrence of new modes in Raman spectra. Since no significant discontinuity in the evolution of the unit-cell volume with pressure has been observed, the transition appears to be second-order in character. The influence of the coupled substitution Na⁺Ti³⁺↔Ca²⁺Mg²⁺ on the static compression behavior and the structural stability has been investigated using a sample of the intermediate composition (Na_0.54Ca_0.46)(Mg_0.46Ti_0.54)Si₂O₆. No evidence for a deviation from continuous compression behavior has been found, neither in lattice parameter nor in structural data and the fit of a third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation-of-state to the pressure–volume data yields a bulk modulus of K ₀ = 109.1(5) GPa and K′ = 5.02(13). Raman and polarized absorption spectra have been compared to NaTiSi₂O₆ and reveal major similarities. The main driving force for the phase transition in NaTi³⁺Si₂O₆ is the localization of the Ti³⁺ d-electron and the accompanying distortion, which is suppressed in the (Na,Ca)(Ti³⁺,Mg)Si₂O₆-clinopyroxene.  相似文献
