- The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection (HERD) facility is one of several space astronomy payloads onboard China's Space Station, which is planned for operation starting around 2025 for about 10 years. The main scientific objectives of HERD are searching for signals of dark matter annihilation products, precise cosmic electron (plus positron) spectrum and anisotropy measurements up to 10 TeV, precise cosmic ray spectrum and composition measurements up to the knee energy, and high energy gamma-ray monitoring and survey. HERD is composed of a 3-D cubic calorimeter (CALO) surrounded by microstrip silicon trackers (STKs) from five sides except the bottom. CALO is made of about 7,500 cubes of LYSO crystals, corresponding to about 55 radiation lengths and 3 nuclear interaction lengths, respectively. The top STK microstrips of six X-Y layers are sandwiched with tungsten converters to make precise directional measurements of incoming electrons and gamma-rays. In the baseline design, each of the four side STKs is made of only three layers microstrips. All STKs will also be used for measuring the charge and incoming directions of cosmic rays, as well as identifying back scattered tracks. With this design, HERD can achieve the following performance: energy resolution of 1% for electrons and gamma-rays beyond 100 GeV and 20% for protons from 100 GeV to 1 PeV; electron/proton separation power better than 10-5; effective geometrical factors of >3 m2sr for electron and diffuse gamma-rays, >2 m2sr for cosmic ray nuclei. R&D is under way for reading out the LYSO signals with optical fiber coupled to image intensified IsCMOS and CALO prototype of 250 LYSO crystals.

- The High Energy cosmic-Radiation Detection (HERD) facility is one of several space astronomy payloads of the cosmic lighthouse program onboard China's Space Station, which is planned for operation starting around 2020 for about 10 years. The main scientific objectives of HERD are indirect dark matter search, precise cosmic ray spectrum and composition measurements up to the knee energy, and high energy gamma-ray monitoring and survey. HERD is composed of a 3-D cubic calorimeter (CALO) surrounded by microstrip silicon trackers (STKs) from five sides except the bottom. CALO is made of about 104 cubes of LYSO crystals, corresponding to about 55 radiation lengths and 3 nuclear interaction lengths, respectively. The top STK microstrips of seven X-Y layers are sandwiched with tungsten converters to make precise directional measurements of incoming electrons and gamma-rays. In the baseline design, each of the four side SKTs is made of only three layers microstrips.

R and D is under way for reading out the LYSO signals with optical fiber coupled to image intensified CCD and the prototype of one layer of CALO.

Experimental study on thermal performance of transcritical CO 2 air source heat pump for space heating
- 2019

- Employing transcritical CO 2 heat pump system for space heating is an effective way to solve the issue of air pollution during the heating season in China. Thus, an experimental setup is developed to study the thermal performance of the transcritical CO 2 air source heat pump system used for space heating. The test results show that a maximum coefficient of performance (COP) of 2.88 is obtained at the optimum discharge pressure and the ambient temperature of 10 o C. The optimal high pressure is nearly a constant with the value of about 8.5 MPa for the ambient temperature in the range of -15~10 o C. The system COP increases with the ambient temperature increasing, and the outlet temperature of the gas cooler is a dominant influencing factor on the thermal performance of the heat pump system. Little difference can be found between the gas cooler outlet temperatures with the variation in ambient temperatures.

Compatible cathode materials for high performance low temperature (300-600°C) solid oxide fuel cells

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- We have made extensive efforts to develop various compatible electrode materials for the ceria-based composite (CBC) electrolytes, which have been, reported as most advanced LTSOFC electrolyte materials (Zhu, 2003). The electrode materials we have investigated can be classified as four categories: i) LSCCF (LaSrCoCaFeO) and BSCF perovskite oxides applied for our CBC electrolyte LTSOFCs; ii) LFN (LaFeO-based oxides, e.g. LaFe0.8Ni 0.2O3) perovskite oxides; iii) lithiated oxides: e.g. LiNiOx, LiVOx or LiCuOx are typical cathode examples for the CBC LTSOFCs; iv) other mixed oxide systems, most common in a mixture of two-oxide phases, such CuOx-NiOx, CuO-ZnO etc. systems with or without lithiation are developed for the CBC systems, especially for direct alcohol LTSOFCs. These cathode materials used for the CBC electrolyte LTSOFCs have demonstrated excellent performances at 300-600°C, e.g. 1000 mWcm-2 was achieved at 580°C. The LTSOFCs can be operated with a wide range of fuels, e.g. hydrogen, methanol, ethanol etc with great potential for applications.

Experimental investigation on the solidification rate of water in open-cell metal foam with copper fins
- 2018

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This study focused on the effect of inserting fins into metal foam on the solidification rate. To this aim, a well-designed experimental system with solid-liquid interface visualization was built. Metal foam samples with different fin intervals were prepared for experiments. Solidification process of water saturating in finned metal foam under bottom cooling was experimentally investigated. Results showed that inserting fins into metal foam can make a promotional improvement on solidification rate of water. The solid-liquid interface became curved after inserting fins, compared with metal foam sample without fins. Besides, changing the interval has little effect on the solidification rate.

A Resource Allocation Strategy in Fog-Cloud Computing Towards the Internet of Things in the 5G Era
- 2021
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The rapid development of Internet of Things (IoTs) will result in massive amounts of data to be processed. The 5G technology and fog computing can reduce the service delay. A challenging problem in fog computing is how to efficiently allocate resources to guarantee the quality of service (QoS). Therefore, studying the cooperation between fog computing resources and cloud computing resources is of great significance. For resource allocation, four optimization objectives are considered: Minimizing the time delay and cost and maximizing the load balancing and stability of task execution, and an improved Two_Archive2 algorithm using a novel fitness evaluation method and a shift-based density estimation strategy (SDE) is proposed. For the case of resource allocation in fog-cloud computing, the proposed algorithm shows the better performance than the state-of-the-art algorithms and could serve as an effective resource allocation scheme. © 2021 IEEE.
