由嘉義地區的氣象資料來探討二十四節氣與聖嬰現象

二十四節氣是中國古代對氣象觀測的智慧結晶,由於近幾年來聖\r 嬰與反聖嬰現象的影響,在透過嘉義氣象觀測站的協助之下,利用\r Excel 進行簡易的雨量和氣溫統計,並配合中央氣象局發布的環流型\r 態和農業災害,來探討二十四節氣在嘉義地區的適用性。\r 以陽曆來區分節氣,每年會誤差6 小時,加上四年一閏,剛好彌\r 補差距,農曆則需19 年。至於聖嬰現象對嘉義地區則呈現涼夏和暖\r 冬,但在反聖嬰現象中則變為加強四季之特性,即是熱夏與寒冬。兩\r 者都造成雨量集中夏秋兩季,形成冬春乾旱。至於二十四節氣則是以\r 夏、秋的氣溫和雨量相關的諺語較適合嘉義地區。\r Abstract\r The 24 Solar Terms, is the achievement of weather observation from\r ancient China. Because of the effects from El Nina and La Nina these\r years, we proceed simple statistics of rainfall and temperature by using\r Excel and the assistance from Chia-yi Weather Station. We adopt the\r Circulation Type and the damage of agriculture from Central Weather\r Bureau, to discuss if the 24 Solar Terms for in Chia-yi area.\r To divide the 24 Solar Terms according to the solar calendar, there’ll\r be a six –hour gap every year. The gap could be made up every four years.\r But with the lunar calendar, it takes nineteen years to offset. The El Nina\r shows cool summer and warm winter in Chia-yi area, but the La Nina\r emphasizes the characteristics of the four seasons. It shows hot summer\r and cold winter. Both of them rain mostly in summer and fall, and cause\r the drought in winter and spring. The saying of the 24 Solar Terms is\r suitable for the temperature and the rainfall during summer and fall in\r Chia-yi area.

什麼尚「氫」--談燃料電池之放氫探討

氫是一種非常理想的能源。不僅效率極高,且不會造成環境污染。空氣中的含量極少,常用的電解水方式又效果不彰。我們利用Ag、Ru、Cu 、C-CuPu、C 等數種電極,與H2SO4、 H3PO4 、HNO3 電解液,分別在10V 雙電極與-0.8V 三電極下做電解水實驗,研究何種電極與何種電解液能得到最多的氫氣量。在低電壓下找出最好的電極,液與太陽能電池結合,成為電池中的一部份,讓發電效果更好,以利未來燃料電池H is a kind of great power.It is not only effective,but also no environment pollution .Owing to the H in the air is very little,so it is not easy to take .Addition to,we often to take it by electro liquid,but the electrolysis effect is not ideal. Except Ag、Ru、Cu、C-CuPt、C and so on ,in theH2SO4、 H3PO4 、HNO3 electro liquid,we have a experiment in the 10V dual electrode and -0.8V triple electrode to study which electrode and which electro liquid to get the most of H.Under the low voltage,we can fund the best electrode.It is easy to bind with solar energy battery,andit can be a part of battery.Besides, it makes the generator effect better,and it is convenient to make the fuel cell commercialize in the future.

On Course Line Management

The Online Course Management system was developed in 2012 by George Moon to address the issue of creating course books at Burnside High School in Christchurch, New Zealand. The course books are designed to inform students, staff and parents of the many courses that are available for students to choose for their next year of study. In the past, the system that the school used consisted of large amounts of paperwork and duplication. Not only did this system require a lot of effort from staff, but the course book cost the school thousands of dollars to produce, as it had to be sent off to be published into a large book that would be read by students for a week, then likely thrown out. This year the school decided to digitise the course book, so that students would look at their courses online. Earlier this year, the school believed that the new School Management System (SMS) ‘KAMAR’ would be able to handle all of the necessary information, however this was not the case. Because of this, they needed a simple solution that would collate all of the course data, and then output it as a course book. I developed my project to do this. It is a web based program that is accessible by staff on their computers which enables them to enter in all of the course and assessment data for their departments. As it is all securely stored on a central database, it reduces duplication and staff workload, as well as the added environmental bonus of less paper being used. The program also outputs data in a number of ways including as a coursebook PDF (digital document which can be uploaded or printed), an Excel spreadsheet and a webpage for easy viewing. It can be sorted or printed by different categories (such as level, faculty, department), which proved to be a very useful feature. Following some research on areas such as design principles, browser compatibility and screen resolution (computer screen size), the program was designed to make best use of this this information. For example, most of the computers that staff would access the website on were of a similar size screen, so I made sure that my website worked well for them. I also used my research on design principles to try and create a simple, clean interface that users with limited computer skills would easily be able to navigate around. The outcome was real, as it was used by the school to generate their coursebook this year. Following a 95% student completion rate of course selection many months earlier than previous years, the system (although it had some issues) was pronounced a success, and the school is looking to use it in the years to come. There are a number of steps I am looking to take in the future with this program including the potential sale to other schools, so they can take advantage of the features it has to offer.

日光燈下的二道彩虹

某次於學校的科學表演中,見到黑白陀螺在旋轉後會產生顏色的\r 變化,使人印象深刻。文獻上記載此類陀螺稱為“Prevost”圓盤,\r 其色彩產生的原因一般被認為是人眼產生之錯覺。不過究竟為何會有\r 這種錯覺,總令人相當納悶。於是我們請教了老師,不僅做了實驗,\r 也用像機拍攝下來分析,不過令我們感到奇怪的是:如果是眼睛產生\r 的錯覺,又為何能拍出顏色?甚至,在研究的過程中我們意外的觀察到鏤空圓盤內的色塊裡,\r 尚有像水波「波紋」般的條紋出現。這個現象十分奇特,於是我們設\r 計了一系列的實驗去探討這些現象,開始了這次的研究。在研究過程中我們遇到相當大的困難,所幸同伴的程式設計技術\r 卓越。為了實驗也撰寫了許多套色彩分析程式,使得實驗更能得心應\r 手。而我是負責實驗儀器的架設及實驗操作,希望能以分工合作的方\r 式,來完成這次的研究。

3D立體建構模擬之研究

現在的市面上,四處充斥著各式各樣的電玩或是3D立體動畫,但是在呈現動畫的\r 時候,依然存在著很多地方的不足,與狀況表現上的矛盾情形!於是令我興起:一個普\r 通的高中學生,是否也有機會運用所學的知識,創造出自己的虛擬實境?\r 我嘗試地寫出各種物體架構的函數,再對這函數圖形所呈現出的立體加工處理,使\r 它能自由的運動,甚至使它能多采多姿就有如我們在現實生活中所看見的一般,有著自\r 己的花紋與圖案!\r 期望在架構完整之後,有一天,我們這些學生可以不再被那些軟體公司牽著走,花\r 大把的錢買電腦動畫中種種的不合理,而可以自己擁有自己的3D 世界!!

最小積包絡現象

思考公車車門開關時在地面上掃過的區域形狀與面積時,發現其中變動的直線為過定點與座標軸圍成三角形面積最小的直線,我們很好奇,這類圍成最小面積的直線更進一步的包絡現象,所以就動手去嘗試做研究。\r \r The research is done out of the curiosity we had when we pondered over the area and the shape a bus door sweeps on the floor when it opens or closes, and thus to discover the graph of the varying line which forms the smallest area so that we attempt to do research on such envelopment phenomena.

利用雙雷射精密測定準靜物的極微小變位

To-be static objects, such as bridges, volcanoes, seldom move ordinarily but have mini displacement only under special conditions, like flood or earthquakes. Therefore, how to measure their mini displacement has never become fully popular with scientists’ research. Then, beginning with “ Optical Lever Theorem”, through a series of speculation and discussion, I decide to use laser ray as light source to perform an experiment ------- trying to find objects with mini displacement in our daily lives, such as revolving electric fans, engine-opening motorcycles, shaken trees, testing their magnifying effect first. Next, I try to use the control-experiment method to find out the magnifying relation and formula of the rotation angle of the plane mirror and the displacement quantity of light focus. As to the measure of mini displacement on objects, I utilize the pillar mirror as a reflection plane to research the magnifying relation of reflection light focus and original displacement quantity. The image made from the light focus of pillar mirror’s reflection, however, isn’t so perfect that I have to use a special plastic-made light-concentrating mirror, which is also called “ Fresnel Lens ”, to focalize the light for easy observation. Besides, I find out the “ function graph ” of the mini displacement quantity on to-be static objects and the displacement quantity of reflection light focus. At last, I try to build up a “ Bridge Alarm System ” of Optical Lever Theorem. 準靜物如橋樑、火山,由於平常不輕易移動,只有在特殊情況下(如洪水、地震)時,才會發生位移的現象。因此,其微小變位如何測量,一向是科學界較少探討的題目。於是,先由光學槓桿原理著手,經過一番思考、探討,決定採用雷射光作為光源,並作了第一個實驗--找生活中具極微小變位的東西,如轉動中的電扇、引擎發動的摩托車、被搖動的樹木等,先測試其放大效果。接著就試圖用控制變因的方法,找出平面鏡旋轉角度和光點平移量的放大關係和公式。至於物體微小的平移量之測量,則是利用柱面鏡作為反射面,來探討反射光點的位移與本來的平移量之放大關係。然而,柱面鏡的反射光點成像並不理想,於是用一種特製的塑膠集光鏡,又稱Fresnel Lens,將光點集中以利觀測,並且找出準靜物之微小平移量及反射光點的位移量的函數圖形。最後,嘗試建立一套光學槓桿式的「橋樑預警系統」。

明察秋毫-動態測微器

The purpose of this research is to create a device that is able to precisely measure small dynamic changes which cannot be recognized by the human eyes. The Vernier Caliper and the screw micrometer are common tools used to precisely measure lengths of objects. However, things which are measured by the Vernier Caliper or the screw micrometer have to be in a solid state, and the shape cannot be changed. By applying the light lever principle on Lego bricks, this research uses the LabVIEW graphical programming system to design a device which is able to automatically measure small dynamic changes. The precision of this device is higher than that of the Vernier Caliper and the screw micrometer. Moreover, this device is able to precisely detect the small dynamic changes of solids and liquids as well. Through numerous tests, the least count of the device can reach the level of 10-3cm. Also, this device has successfully measured small changes, such as the height of the liquid surface by one drop of water, the evaporation of water in one minute, and the growth of a plant in one hour. By popularizing this device, people will be able to precisely measure small dynamic changes which are difficult to be measured in a short time.

流體碰撞物體所產生的波形之研究及應用

當流體由圓管流下,在碰撞到物體後水流會產生類似駐波的形狀。為瞭解此現象的產生機制,及影響此現象的變因,我們改變流體的表面張力、流速及與碰撞物體間的距離,以探討各變因對波形所產生的影響,進而研究此現象的成因。由實驗結果發現波形會因流速加快、擋板距離增加、表面張力減少而有波長變短的趨勢,且可以用表面張力波的理論解釋。由理論推導的結果,可測量液體表面張力。由於圓球狀的外型使表面積增大,可增加液體之散熱的面積,因此可應用在水冷系統方面。A phenomenon similar to the standing wave, which occurs when a slow-velocity fluid jet collides with an obstacle, was observed. Because the free surface profile was observed to be stable, the phenomenon was not considered as standing wave. To understand the mechanism of this phenomenon and the factors that can affect the free surface profile, the surface tension of the fluid, jet velocity and the distance between the exit of the tube and the obstacle are varied to study their influences on the free surface profile. According to our experiment, the wave length is shortened when the jet velocity or the distance between the tube and the obstacle increases or when the surface tension decreases. The tendency of the investigated phenomenon can be explained by the capillary wave theory. Based on Bernoulli’s principle, continuity principle and surface tension\r equation, an ODE (ordinary differential equation) could be formulated. By using numerical method to solve this ODE, we predict the free surface profile which could match the experimental photo well. The tendency of the phenomenon can also be explained by the ODE. In order to measure the surface tension of the fluid, we wish to minimize the experiment apparatus. To enhance our assumption we use laser to locate the individual particle that we add in the fluid and calculate the velocity field of the flow jet.

「膠」流電-黏度及外加電壓對電解質溶液離子暫穩態通道之影響

在本次實驗中,我發現膠狀電解質溶液中的帶電離子,會因為離子團的熱運動,和電偶極的庫倫吸引力 (electric dipole) 的交互作用下,使溶液的I-V curve (電流-電壓曲線),具有類似磁滯曲線(Hysteresis curve) 的效果;而膠狀溶液之濃度越高,電解起始點的對應I-V 值也越大。此外,白金電極與銅箔電極的距離若改變,也會使溶液的I-V curve 變的不一樣。另一方面,我也發現,在給予膠狀電解質溶液一緩慢外加的電壓或衝擊電壓並持續維持此一定額外加電壓時,會因為該溶液的黏度持續增高、帶電離子濃度增高且反應不斷變化下,而使該溶液的對應電壓,形成一重複出現「先降-後升-再降」的震盪現象,且電壓值節節升高。最後,我利用掃描式電子顯微鏡(SEM)及能量分散光譜儀(EDS)觀察銅箔電極之表面變化並分析其上之化學組成,藉此嘗試解釋上述這些有趣的現象。In this experiment, with the interaction of the heating action of ionic atmosphere and electric dipole, I find that ions in the gel make the I-V curve in the colloid electrolyte liquor show up with the effect similar to Hysteresis curve. The higher concentration of the colloidal solution, the bigger value of I-V at the initial electrolysis reaction was found. Furthermore, the shape of I-V curve is dependent on the distance between platinum electrode and cupper electrode. On the other hand, I find that when I apply a gradual extra-voltage or a fast extra-voltage to the colloidal electrolyte solutions and then maintain to a fixed value, this will make a unique ‘two peaks’ state oscillation of corresponding voltage. The reason is owing to the climbing viscosity and ion concentration in the solution. With the methods of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), I observe the change and analyze the components of chemicals on the surface of the cupper electrodes. Finally, I present the interesting results and try to interpret these phenomena.
