    This is the first release of the cloud parcel model developed by Jingyi Chen. The development of this model was supported by Stony Brook University and Brookhaven National Laboratory in 2012-2014 (adiabatic version) and 2015-2017 (entrainment-mixing with entrained aerosols).

Zhi-Teng Chen (ICJUST). Egg. Disc shaped (Fig. 17), similar to Yoraperla (Stark & Nelson 1994), diameter approximately 0.35 mm. Entire chorionic surface covered with irregular follicle cell impressions; dorsal aspect with a circular depression, the cells in which are obscure (Fig. 17A, B). Impressions on circular lid shallow and obscure (Fig. 17C, D). Remarks. Egg of M. qinlinga is characterized by the conspicuously deep, circular depression on dorsal aspect of chorion, which is absent in M. geei, the misidentified species in Stark & Sivec (2000) and the Japanese M. brevicauda (see figs. 5–10 in Stark & Sivec 2000); impressions on the circular lid of M. qinlinga are visible, completely absence in M. geei. The Microperla species described by Stark & Sivec (2000) appears to be neither M. geei nor M. qinlinga based on differences in egg morphology. This species is more similar to M. retrolobata in regard to the terminalia of both sexes. It is suggested that this species currently remain unidentified until egg morphology of M. retrolobata from Gansu Province becomes available.Published as part of Chen, Zhi-Teng, 2020, Holomorphology and Neotype designation of Microperla geei Chu, with egg morphology of Microperla qinlinga Chen (Plecoptera: Peltoperlidae), pp. 563-578 in Zootaxa 4780 (3) on page 576, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4780.3.8, http://zenodo.org/record/385537

    Scirpophaga adunctella Chen, Song & Wu, 2006 (Figs 38, 45, 53) Scirpophaga adunctella Chen, Song & Wu, 2006. Zootaxa, 1236: 15. Type locality: China, Yunnan. Description. Wing span ♀ 30–38 mm. Female white, anal tuft pale ochreous; others same to male. Both male and female sometimes have a dark fuscous spot present at the lower angle of cell on forewing. Female genitalia. Anal papillae broad, covered with long setae; apophyses anterioris and posterioris well developed and with the same length; ostium bursae broad and long, strongly wrinkled, sclerotized towards ductus bursae, different with other species; ductus bursae membranous; corpus bursae round, lined with dense spines.

Distribution. China (Yunnan, Xizang). Remarks. The female of this species is firstly reported here. Chen et al. (2006) reported the species according to a single male specimen. At that time, we could not match the right female with the male, although some possible materials were checked. Later, more materials of the species were gotten from Xizang. The materials from Xizang sometimes have a dark fuscous spot present at the lower angle of cell on forewing, which is common in excerptalis group.Published as part of Chen, Fu-Qiang & Wu, Chun-Sheng, 2014, Taxonomic review of the subfamily Schoenobiinae (Lepidoptera: Pyraloidea: Crambidae) from China, pp. 163-208 in Zoological Systematics 39 (2) on page 175, DOI: 10.11865/zs20140201, http://zenodo.org/record/461732

    Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses

    Full text link
    Following an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied
