2008, 34(10): 1126-1129.
Abstract:
A new class of dao ben lab code division multiple access (DBL-CDMA) spreading codes with zero correlation window (ZCW) was presented, which is constructed by making kronecker product of basic loose synchronous (LS) codes and special complex matrix which is constructed by Barker sequence and its phase rotation. The auto-correlation and cross-correlation function of these new codes were analyzed and some basic theorems and corollaries on these new codes were proved. In addition, the realization methods of these new codes were also discussed. Compared with the basic LS codes, the new DBL-CDMA access codes extend the minimum ZCW, increase the number of available access codes and the number of perfect complementary pair for a fixed code length. Moreover, only few side lobes of auto-correlation and cross-correlation function appear in few time shift axis in the same group. The computer simulation results verify the validity of the theoretical derivations.

2008, 34(10): 1130-1134.
Abstract:
A parametric study on the conceptual design methodology and optimization criteria for an integrated magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) bypass scramjet of a generic waverider-based hypersonic vehicle was performed. An integrated parametric design of an MHD controlled inlet and a built-in MHD generator was first provided using a quasi-one-dimensional MHD model, in conjunction with the theory of oblique shock. Taking the designed configuration as the baseline configuration, a numerical procedure based on a five-equation model associated with low magnetic Reynolds number MHD flow was utilized to simulate and optimize the integrated MHD controlled inlet. It was found that the minimum nonuniform flow parameter at the exit of the inlet channel might act as the criterion for the built-in generator to possess an optimal magnetic interaction parameter capable of improving the performance of the inlet effectively.

2008, 34(10): 1135-1138.
Abstract:
High storage reliability system requires the extremely high reliable assemblies over long periods of storage time. Within severe time and cost constraints, step stress accelerated degradation testing (SSADT) was utilized to evaluate storage reliability and life of microwave electronical assembly. Firstly, the assumptions of SSADT were given. On the basis of failure mode effect and criticality analysis(FMECA) and fault tree analysis(FTA) results of the microwave assembly, accelerated model was determined. Then, reliability evaluation model was generated combined with linear drift Brownian movement. By the independence increment property of linear drift Brownian movement, the maximum likelihood and regression analysis were used to evaluate the parameters of reliability model. In order to eliminate the effect of power cycle on storage reliability and life, degraded rate conversion method and converted function of linear drift Brownian movement was presented in light of GJB108-98. Engineering application validated that reasonable evaluated results could be obtained by the methodology proposed.

2008, 34(10): 1143-1146.
Abstract:
The global and continuous flight control law was designed via the bifurcation tailoring and eigenstructure assignment methods. Based on the equilibrium branches of aircraft flight dynamics, the feedforward control law was designed by utilizing the continuous method, by which the shape of the equilibrium branches was modified to make the output variables trace the input commands. The uncoupled gain-scheduled feedback control law was designed via the eigenstructure assignment technique to meet the requirement of flying qualities, and the equilibrium branches of the uncommand motion were tailored. Control bifurcation was analyzed for the feedforward open-loop control system and the feedback closed-loop control system. The control law design and computer simulation for a static unstable aircraft were presented to demonstrate that the unexpected bifurcation behaviors were restrained and the stable flight envelope was extended.

Li Meng, Wang Zhongyu, Gao Xiaoying
2008, 34(10): 1147-1150.
Abstract:
In pseudo-non-diffracting beam communication system, the intensity variance on the receiver is brought by atmospheric turbulence, and thus the bit-error rate(BER) of the communication system could be effected. Ignoring other noises in the system, the relationship between BER with the refractive index structure parameter, communication distance and wavelength was deducted based on the distribution of intensity variance. The changing law of BER along with index structure parameter was researched through computer simulation, the impact of communication distance and wavelength on BER was discussed and the allowed range of communication distance was determinated under BER criterion of 10-9. It is indicated that the atmospheric turbulence-s effect to BER can be weaken by choosing appropriate weather and sunlight condition, decreasing communication distance and using laser with longer wavelength.

Transonic incoming flow to the stator is determined to be a problem in the design of a high aerodynamic load transonic fan inlet stage. Through discussions, it-s considered that the problem of transonic incoming flow to the stator could be solved by existing design methods. The best design of the single stage fan was picked up, with its aerodynamic load coefficient reached 0.53, and its 3D viscous flow field was analyzed.

Abstract:
Video codec has a very high computation complexity and features intensive vector accesses to memory. A 2-D parallel memory scheme based on linear skewing scheme was proposed. The memory scheme can be combined with simple instruction multiple data (SIMD) vector processor to address the computation challenge of video.

Abstract:
Based on the multi-objective optimization problems in the aircraft conceptual parameter design, improved multi-objective genetic algorithms were proposed. The "Pareto front "of Multi-objective optimization (MO) was tried to seek by using inherent parallelism of genetic algorithms (GA) while emphasizing the Pareto optimal conception. Different improved genetic algorithms were applied to a same two-objective optimization arterial airliner conceptual parameter optimization design, where both the ratio of lift to drag in cruise and the useful load fraction were asked to be maximized. Through general analysis and comparison to solutions of different algorithms, it can conclude that the Pareto optimal results of the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm(NSGA) are better than the improved vector-evaluated genetic algorithm(VEGA) and the random-weight genetic algorithm(RWGA), while the results of VEGA and RWGA are equal.

2008, 34(10): 1191-1194.
Abstract:
A homo-equilibrium model was used to compute the hydrodynamic cavitation flow field over an axisymmetric projectile by solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The governing equations were resolved in a finite volume manner, the convective fluxes were treated by an upwind differencing scheme and the time was integrated using the LU-SGS approach. A mass transfer model introduced by Kunz was implemented in a viscous Navier-Stokes solver. A preconditioning method was used for the low-speed computations and the point implicit method for the mass transfer source terms. The computations were performed for the cavitation flow of an axisymmetric projectile under the Reynold number of 136000 and the cavitation number of 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3. The wall pressure coefficients on the axisymmetric projectile were obtained and compared with experimental data, the agreements were excellent. And then, the super-cavitation phenomena were studied for σ=0.2,0.1, 0.06, and the super-cavitation flow-field was obtained for cavitation number σ=0.06.
CFD study of fluid flow in an all-glass evacuated tube solar water heater
Ai Ning, Fan Jianhua, Li Yumin
2008, 34(10): 1195-1199.
Abstract:
The all-glass evacuated tube solar water heater is one of the most widely used solar thermal technologies. The aim of the paper is to investigate fluid flow in the solar water heater by means of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The investigation was carried out with a focus on the convective heat transfer in the tube. The buoyancy induced flow circulation in different parts of the tube was analyzed. It is shown that fluid flow becomes stochastic and turbulent if fluid temperature is high enough. The flow instability leads to mixing of the warm uprising flow and the cold downward flow, which decreases efficiency of the heat exchange process. A baffle in the tube can prevent the flow instability and secure the flow circulation in the tube. The results of the investigation provide a helpful guidance for further investigation of the mechanism of heat transfer processes and a reference for future system optimization.

2008, 34(10): 1200-1203.
Abstract:
The interconnect test and fault diagnosis for system buses are important to the manufacturing and maintenance of electronic products. The previous test algorithms which are proposed in literatures have some problems, such as existing redundant test vectors and having long test time etc. An adaptive and fast diagnosis algorithm was proposed according to the analysis of the interconnect-fault syndromes on system buses. The test process was divided into two phases. In the first phase, the short and stuck-at faults on supernets were diagnosed and then the supernets were divided into several groups according to the diagnosed short faults. In the second phase, the "parallel walking 1" test vectors were applied to the grouped supernets to diagnose the open faults. The results show that the proposed algorithm can support maximal diagnosis, remove the redundant test vectors, shorten the test time and realize fast diagnosis.

Li Zhiqiang, Tian Tao, Chen Qin
2008, 34(10): 1204-1209.
Abstract:
The numerical simulation was used to study the film cooling effectiveness of plate with multi-inclined jet hole. The effect of the blowing ratio, oblique angle of the hole, array way of the hole, compound angle and shape of jet holes was investigated for increasing cooling efficiency. The computational results show that the blowing ratio and the oblique angle of the hole have important influence for the cooling efficiency. With the increase of the blowing ratio, the cooling efficiency increases, but the trend of increase is decreasing. And with the decrease of the oblique angle of the hole, the high cooling efficiency can be gained. The array way of the holes has a certain effect on the cooling efficiency, i.e. long diamond distribution is better than the regular diamond distribution. Also, the computational results show the introduction of the hole offset angle in the y direction is unfavorable for cooling. In addition, compared with cylinder holes, when the holes with the cone contractive entrance and the cone outspread exit are used, it is found that the cooling efficiency can be improved with low blowing ratio, and the cooling efficiency is inferior with high blowing ratio.
