The thermal properties with filling the carbon fiber, graphite conductive particles in asphalt-matrix mixtures are investigated. Based on the generalized effective medium theory ( EMT ), the effective thermal and electrical conductivity of carbon fiber/asphalt and graphite/asphalt composites are theoretically elucidated. The theoretical results are found to be in reasonably well agreement with the experimental data. Moreover, the theoretical and experimental results show that the large-aspect-ratio shape of particles can help to achieve a large enhancement of effective conductivity, and the use of disk-like high conductivity particles can limit the additive contents for preserving the volumetric properties and mechanical properties of asphalt composites. The generalized effective medium theory model can be used for predicting the thermal and electrical properties of asphaltmatrix composites, which is still available for most of the thermal/electrical modifications in two-phase composites.展开更多

The results show that the gas absorption rates can be enhanced significantly in the presence of AC particles, and the maximum enhancement factor 3.7 was observed at low stirring intensities. The enhancement factor increased rapidly with the solid loading during the initial period of absorption and then be- came mild gradually to a maximum value. Both the liquid-solid contact area and the probability of solid particles residing at the gas-liquid interface decreased with the increase of the particle size, leading to a negative effect on the enhancement of mass transfer. The influence of the particles on gas absorption decreased with the reaction rate. The stirring speed changed the interfacial coverage and mass transfer rate on the liquid side and consequently affected the mass transfer between the gas and liquid phases; the enhancement factor decreased with the stirring intensity. A heterogeneous two-zone model was proposed for predicting the enhancement factor and the calculated results agreed well with the experimental data.展开更多

In this study, we chose the different regeneration patterns of Chinese fir for our researches, the results showed different regeneration patterns affected both the quantity and quality of soil organic carbon. clear cutting followed by different regeneration in old-growth Chinese fir decreased the quantity of soil organic carbon both in artificial regeneration forest and natural regeneration forest, and both of them were significantly different with the old-growth Chinese fir forest (p〈0.05). The concentrations of soil organic carbon(SOC) and particulate organic carbon(POC) in natural regeneration forest were higher than those in artificial regeneration forest, and the difference was significant in the 0-5 cm layer (p〈0.05). Different regeneration patterns decreased forest SOC storage. Compared with the old-growth Chinese fir, SOC storage in 0-100 cm layer decreased by 7.09% and 13.27% in natural regeneration forest and artificial regeneration forest respectively, and the differences were both significant (p〈0.05). In addition, SOC storage in 0-100 cm layer of natural regeneration forest was 7.13% higher than that in artificial regeneration forest.展开更多
