Parasitic virophages are small unicellular eukaryotic dsDNA viruses that rely on the viral factories of coinfecting giant/large dsDNA viruses for propagation. Presently, the identified eukaryotic hosts of isolated virophages were restricted to a free-living amoeba,
Acanthamoeba polyphaga
, and a widespread marine heterotrophic flagellate,
Cafeteria roenbergensis
.
The adaptability of vehicle-mounted heating systems that include burner and stove remarkably influences the system efficiency, heat flux uniformity, and pollutants emission. In this work, the performance of a rotary cup burner assembly with three different cooking stoves was investigated using ANSYS Fluent software based on five factors of thermal efficiency, heat transfer intensity, heating uniformity, CO emissions, and flue gas outlet temperature. The Eulerian-Lagrangian method was used to perform the diesel spray, and the shear stress transfer k-ω turbulence model and the probability density function model were employed to simulate the turbulent combustion. Based on the simulation results, the performance pentagon of the above five factors was constructed to evaluate the comprehensive performance of the new rotary cup burner system. The rotary cup burner had a good performance when it is used in two staple food stoves and a subsidiary food stove. In staple food stove A, its higher furnace increased the heat exchange area of the vessel, while the higher fireboard of staple food stove B caused a higher heat transfer intensity at the bottom of the vessel. However, the higher fireboard also led to higher CO emissions. In consideration of these two factors, the thermal efficiency of stove A was about 7% higher than that of stove B. Different from the staple food stove, the furnace of subsidiary food stove C had better wrapping to the bottom of the boiler so that it had the highest heat transfer intensity. The obtained performance pentagon shows that the comprehensive adaptability performance of stove A was the best and that of stove B was the worst, which is mainly caused by the height of the fireboard and the shape of the vessel. This research guides the optimization of the heating system and promotes the application of the rotary cup burner.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
