The fertilizer treatments significantly increased rice yields compared with the control（ no nitrogen added） yields to different degrees at different sites. Applying CRU and U increased the rice yield more than adding the same amount of nitrogen as U only. Higher increasing production rate were found using a nitrogen application rate of 105 kg/hm2 than 150 kg/hm2. A 70∶ 30 CRU∶ U ratio increased the yield more than other four ratios. Nitrogen use efficiency was 21. 9% higher using a nitrogen application rate of 105 kg/hm^2 than 150 kg/hm^2,and 46. 6%,38. 1%,34. 7%,and 22. 2% higher than when only U was applied when CRU∶ U ratios of 70 ∶ 30,50 ∶ 50,100 ∶ 0,and 30 ∶ 70,respectively,were used. A 70 ∶ 30 CRU ∶ U ratio gave the highest economic output（ yuan/hm^2）. Applying both CRU and U gave an output 3 078. 87 yuan/hm^2 higher at a nitrogen application rate of 150 kg/hm^2 than at a nitrogen application rate of 105 kg/hm^2. Economic output was always higher using both CRU and U than using U only. The highest economic output was given using a 70∶ 30 CRU∶ U ratio.Increasing the amount of nitrogen added decreased the output efficiency（ per hm2） because CRU is expensive. Significant relationships were found between the yield increase rate and the proportion of CRU added（ regression equation y = 7. 429 x-185. 7,R^2= 0. 663） and between the total rainfall over the whole growth period and the proportion of CRU added（ y =-0. 087 1 x ＋ 112. 29,R^2= 0. 687 9）. These regression equations can be used to determine the appropriate proportion of CRU that should be added at a site,depending on the rainfall and target rice yield.展开更多

The heat transfer loss is taken into account. The expressions of power output, thermal efficiency, entropy generation rate(EGR) and ecological function are addressed using finite-time thermodynamic theory. Through numerical calculations, the influences of compression ratio, cut-off ratio and polytropic exponent on the performance are thermodynamically analyzed. The model can be simplified to other cycle models under specific conditions, which means the results have an certain universality and may be helpful in the design of practical heat engines. It is shown that the entropy generation minimization does not always lead to the best system performance.展开更多
