We mainly take three factors related to the shear equilibrium plasma flow into consideration to study the stabilizing effect of the shear flow on the resistive wall modes （RWMs）. The three factors are the velocity amplitude of flow, the shear rate of flow on plasma surface, and the inertial energy of equilibrium plasma flow. In addition, a local shear plasma flow is also calculated by the LARWM code. Consequently, it is found that the inertial energy of the shear equilibrium plasma flow has an important role in the stabilization of the RWMs.展开更多

The second-order Harten-TVD scheme was used for the spatial discretization. The efficient implementation of the scheme with diagonalization of Jacobin matrix was established and carried out for the semi-cylindrical around flow. Current observations showed that the numerical results were in good agreement with those obtained by the classical explicit three-stage Runge-Kutta scheme (RK3) and implicit LU scheme. Efficiency assessments promised the effectiveness of the ETDRK3 scheme. The rationality of the application of this scheme was proved by its preferable accuracy and efficiency.展开更多

Compared with previous approaches, the main advantage of the present approach is allowing an analytic solution without involving any semi-empirical parameter for the whole non-equilibrium flow regimes. The effects of some important physical quantities therefore can be fully revealed via the analytic solution. By combining the current solution with Ideal Dissociating Gas（IDG） model, we investigate the effects of free stream kinetic energy and free stream dissociation level（which can be very different between different facilities） on the shock stand-off distance.展开更多

In this paper the effect is studied numerically using the EFIT （Equilibrium Fitting） code on EAST （Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak）. Firstly, the numerical calculation exhibits a clear outward shift of pressure contour from the magnetic surfaces in the plasma core and the shift grows with the increase of the toroidal velocity. The peak shift of 8% is observed when the ratio between the plasma velocity and the Alfvdn speed equals to 0.15. Secondly, it is shown that the magnetic surfaces shift outwards from those without flow. With a certain plasma current the safety factor on the magnetic axis decreases as the plasma flow velocity increases. The magnetic shear increases about 10% on the plasma boundary compared with the case without flow.展开更多

It is known that secondary flow causes longitudinal vortices to form near the wall of the nozzle corner, making the nozzle outlet flow unstable and induces loss of transport energy. When the working fluid is a condensable gas with relatively large latent heat such as moist air or steam, rapid accelerated expansion in the nozzle causes non-equilibrium condensation due to supersaturation. After the release of latent heat during phase transition, nozzle flow continues expanding at an equilibrium saturation condition. In the absence of foreign particles, e.g. ions or dust particles, condensation nuclei are formed in the gas itself causing non-equilibrium homogeneous condensation. Supersonic nozzle flow properties vary considerably due to the occurrence of condensation phenomenon. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of non-equilibrium homogeneous condensation on the longitudinal vortices which form in the range close to the corner of rectangular arc nozzle numerically.展开更多

First, the critical angles of transition from detachment criterion and yon Neumann criterion are determined by the extended shock-polar method considering the non-equilibrium effects. Then wave patterns and the transition process are numerically obtained. Results of the critical transition angles from shock-polar calculation and numerical simulation show evident disagreement, indicating transition mechanism between RR and MR of type V interaction is changed. By comparing with the frozen counterpart, it is also found that non-equilibrium effects lead to a larger critical wedge angle and a larger hysteresis interval.展开更多

Both frequencies and damping rates increase with respect to the poloidal Mach number which indicates the strength of the radial electric field. The strength of anisotropy is denoted by the ratio of the parallel temperature（T_‖） to the perpendicular temperature（T_⊥）. It is shown that, when the parallel temperature is lower than the perpendicular temperature, the enhanced anisotropy tends to enlarge the real frequency but reduces the damping rate, and when the parallel temperature is higher than the perpendicular temperature, the effect is opposite. The radial equilibrium electric field has stronger effect on the frequency and damping rate for the case with higher parallel temperature than the case with higher perpendicular temperature.展开更多

What the highlighted contribution lies in is that the paper not only expands theory of supply chain model with reducing path flow but also generalizes the traditional transportation network equilibrium problem by new applications.展开更多
