Heat transfer evaluation is conducted using convective thermal constraints, and numerical computations are carried out using the Runge–Kutta method.

The calculations are done for the constant electron temperatures (1–4 eV) and concentrations (10<jats:sup>10</jats:sup> cm<jats:sup>−3</jats:sup> to 10<jats:sup>14</jats:sup> cm<jats:sup>−3</jats:sup>). The mole fractions of air and water vapor vary from 100 to 10,000 ppm. The presented analysis reveals that at low electron temperature and H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O contents, the dissociative electron attachment to O<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> dominates over attachment to H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O in production of OH. At higher amount, H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O modifies the high-energy tail of electron distribution function and increases rate coefficients for electron impact processes. Dissociative electron attachment to H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O dominates in the production of OH at 1 eV and remains important at higher energies when processes with O(<jats:sup>1</jats:sup>D), O(<jats:sup>1</jats:sup>S), O<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>(<jats:sup>1</jats:sup>∆) produce OH. Impact dissociation of H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O dominates over the dissociative attachment at 3 and 4 eV. NO comes mainly from air effluent in the plasma and O + NO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> at 100 ppm of H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O. Above 2 eV, the conversion process between OH and NO dominates in NO production at higher amount of H<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>O. Regarding dependencies on electron concentration, at low electron temperatures, electron distribution function is affected only at 10<jats:sup>14</jats:sup> cm<jats:sup>−3</jats:sup>. But in the case of higher temperature, electron concentration and water vapor have negligible influence. The best agreement with measured data is obtained for electron concentration 10<jats:sup>10</jats:sup> cm<jats:sup>−3</jats:sup> and at temperature of 2 eV for OH and 10<jats:sup>12</jats:sup> cm<jats:sup>−3</jats:sup> and 3 eV for NO.","PeriodicalId":48710,"journal":{"name":"Open Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141741573","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To promote the development of camouflaged object detection tasks based on RGB-D images, we construct an RGB-D camouflaged object detection dataset, dubbed CODD. This dataset is obtained by converting the existing salient object detection RGB-D datasets by image-to-image translation techniques, which is comparable to the current widely used camouflaged object detection dataset in terms of diversity and complexity. In particular, in order to obtain high-quality translated images, we design a selection strategy that takes into account the structural similarity between pre- and post-conversion images, the similarity between the appearance of objects and their surroundings, as well as the ambiguity of object boundaries.

The bvp4c routine in MATLAB R2020a has been used to solve the raised problem for linear instability. The impact of gravity parameter, Peclet number, and power-law index on linear instability has been investigated. Linear and quadratic variations of gravity field are considered. From the results, it is evident that the critical Rayleigh number exhibits a non-monotonic relationship with the Peclet number.

The principal equations are solved implementing the semi-implicit method for pressure linked equations algorithm, and the outcomes are compared with existing literature. The study shows that rising estimations of Darcy number, velocity ratio, Richardson number, and nanoparticles volume fraction lead to improved heat transfer rates. For example, at high Richardson number (100) and solid volume fraction (0.05), increasing the velocity ratio from 0.5 to 1.5 results in a 6% (5%) upsurge in heat transport rate. Conversely, at smaller Richardson number (0.01), the heat transport rate upsurges by 29% (28%). Similarly, at high Darcy numbers and low wall velocity ratios, a 3% (4%) escalate in heat transport rate is observed with an increase in nanoparticles concentration from 0 to 0.05, while a 9% (8%) increase in thermal performance is achieved at low Darcy numbers.

Cavitation bubbles collapsed at the tail end of the cavity to form a local void area. The blade frequency amplitude of pressure pulsation shows the significant periodic change.
