Estimation the Sensitivity of Receiver that Implements “Non-Energetic” Me­thod of Signal Reception

P. 7–15.

Fig. 9. Tabl. 1. Refs.: 10 titles.

In this paper, the impulse radio UWB receiver sensitivity is estimated. The receiver implements “non-energetic” method of signal reception which provides pulses selection with amplitude that exceeds the root mean square value of noise and interference rather than accumulation of received pulses energy. Selected pulses are used to start a generator of pulses with a longer duration and higher amplitude. The latter are processed by a passive match filter. Calculations show that such receiver effectively receives the pulse signals and has a disadvantage of only 2 dB compared with the optimal coherent and 1 dB with non-coherent method of signal reception.

Influence of Separation on Heat Transfer and Hydrodynamic of a Flat Working Surface of Heat Power Equipment

P. 28–35.

Fig. 5. Tabl. 1. Refs.: 16 titles.

The results of an experimental study of heat transfer, friction, velocity and temperature characteristics as well as turbulence structure on the flat surface are presented for relaxation zone after a separation at free stream turbulence Tue≈ 0,2 % in the range of velocities 5–10 m/s. The type of a separation (laminar, transitional or turbulent) is adjusted by velocity, shape of an inlet edge of the plate and length of an interceptor, installed in the end of test section of the wind tunnel. The dissimilarity of an internal structure of a hydrodynamic and thermal boundary layers and different rates of their recovery in relaxation zone were confirmed. The similarity equation was proposed for calculation of heat transfer intensification depending on turbulent viscosity.

The Method of Information Security System Design Using Deterministic Game “Defender–Attacker”

P. 46–53.

Fig. 2. Tabl. 1. Refs.: 14 titles.

This study describes the approach to solving the problem of creating a system of information protection with limited resources. The problem is solved using the game theory, notably a formal apparatus which allows taking into account the conflict relationships between an attacker and a defender. In terms of the game theory, the attacker’s reward is the damage inflicted on the victim, while the defender aims to minimize the risk and ensure the stable system operation. Solving the described problem, we obtain the optimal set of security measures that provides the maximum level of protection under the given constraints.

In this paper, we have offered the information technology of chaotic behavior identification of one-dimensional scalar realization of dynamic systems, scalar time series and the pseudophase reconstruction of their attractors. The applied methodology is based on 14 different modern methods. To optimize the computations, we have used the method of length estimation for partitioning phase trajectories. It led to modification of some methods that utilize correlation integrals. In addition, we have estimated the minimum distance between 2 points on the phase trajectory. By presenting the examples of stocks dynamics of a leading issuer according to the capital rating of the PFTS stock exchange, as well as of one-dimensional signal, obtained by calculating the dynamic system, we have conducted the research of chaotic dynamics, have discovered chaotic attractors and have also reconstructed their pseudophase space.

P. 69–76.

Fig. 5. Tabl. 2. Refs.: 6 titles.

We devise the compression method of alphanumeric information in its graphic coding representation. The method of data compression is based on converting data from one alphabet to another – from the alphabet of characters into alphabet of graphic coding symbols. The method provides the data compression on average by 20 % for digit data and by 12 % for text sequences. Furthermore, this method provides the storage of a large information content (over 1000 alphanumerical characters) in the form of graphical codes on a limited area of carrier.

The Experimental Study of Detachable and Attachable Flow Limits of Liquid Film on the External Surface of Rotating Cone

P. 121–125.

Fig. 3. Refs.: 8 titles.

The paper studies detachable and attachable flow limits of liquid film on the external surface of the rotating cone with different angles at the foundation (from 30 to 55 degrees) in the range from 400 to 1700 rpm with the fluid flow up to 45,2 g/s. The film flow in the lift-off zone looks like radial convex streams, from which droplets are falling. The bulk of the liquid flame spray is formed. The angle cosine at the cone base influences the most the beginning of droplets falling from the film surface. Increasing the film thickness (liquid flow) and rising the speed can reduce the radius of droplets falling. Finally, we obtain the equations for calculating the initial radius of drops falling.

P. 148–151.

Fig. 4. Refs.: 14 titles.

This paper deals with the experimental research into the effectiveness of utilizing oxalic acid for decomposition of the phosphate component of phosphorites employing the trisubstituted calcium phosphate as a sample. Furthermore, the impact of such parameters as duration, temperature, the stoichiometric ratio of initial reagents is defined in the process of calcium phosphate dissolution. We determine that the calcium phosphate dissolution by the oxalate acid finishes in 30–45 minutes and the temperature at which the maximum expansion of calcium phosphate is 80 °C. The results obtained indicate the prospects of using organochemical leaching of phosphorites by the oxalic acid.

P. 152–155.

Fig. 3. Refs.: 7 titles.

The paper studies heat resistance and the mechanism of high-temperature oxidation of chromosilicide diffusion coatings applied on a surface of carbon steels by a gas method. We define the factors of influence on the process of high-temperature steels oxidation with the obtained coatings. The interrelation between the composition, the structure of diffusion layers and the speed of high-temperature oxidation is established. We show that the obtained coatings have a high heat resistance in an interval of temperatures between 623–1273 K. Finally, we propose the structure of a sealing mixture to decrease the speed of the high-temperature oxidation of diffusion coatings at a long isothermal endurance.

Neutral and Basic Dialkildithiophosphate Structure Investigation

P. 156–160.

Fig. 3. Tabl. 3. Refs.: 14 titles.

Neutral and basic zinc diisobutyldithiophophate (ZDDP) were synthesized and their structure was investigated. Diisobutyldithiophosphoric acid, neutral and basic ZDDP chemical composition was confirmed by elemental analysis. Obtained neutral and basic ZDDP differed by physical-chemical properties. IR-spectra comparison of neutral and basic ZDDP shows absence of absorption band which corresponds to hydroxyl group. XRD investigation neutral and basic ZDDP results in definite formulas and structures. Basic ZDDP is tetranuclear zinc complex with six organic ligands, and oxygen atom in centre of tetrahedron formed by four zinc atoms. Such structure give extensionality to basic ZDDP molecule and give an explanation to differ physical-chemical and antiwear properties. Thus by complex of proposed methods structure of such substances can be discovered for purposeful synthesis.
