Performance study on a printed circuit heat exchanger composed of novel airfoil fins for supercritical CO2 cycle cooling system
Authors: Ma Yulong , Hou Qingdong , Wang Tianyi
Published: August 2022

The printed circuit heat exchanger (PCHE) plays a vital role in the supercritical CO2 cooling system for hypersonic aircraft, which significantly affects the efficiency and stability of the cooling system. In this study, a novel structure is proposed to improve the overall performance of airfoil fin PCHE. The RP-3 aviation kerosene and SCO2 are used as working fluids to study the thermal-hydraulic performance and the enhancement mechanism. The results indicate that the overall performance of the PCHE can be improved by slotting the airfoil fin. With the increase in groove thickness, the thermal performance of the new airfoil fin PCHE first improves and then worsens, while the hydraulic performance of the PCHE first worsens and then improves. Compared with the original airfoil fin, the fin with a groove thickness of 0.6 mm reduces the pressure drop by up to 15% without affecting the thermal performance, while the fin with a groove thickness of 0.1 mm increases the heat transfer by 4%-5%. In addition, the optimal mass-flow ratio of SCO2 to kerosene is obtained by thermal resistance matching under different working conditions, which is helpful for the design and optimization of airfoil fin PCHE based on the SCO2 cycle cooling system for scramjets.
The Inherent Conflict Between Progressive Tax Rates and Income Inequality: Lessons from COVID-19 Restrictions
Authors: Goldman Nathan C. , Lusch Stephen J. , Sadka Gil
Published: August 2022

We examine the relation between progressive tax rates, income inequality, and state income tax collections. We provide evidence that states with more progressive tax rate structures have higher tax collections. We then show an enhanced relation for states that enacted more stringent COVID-19 restrictions, which increased income inequality. Finally, we find that restrictions were more severe in states with more progressive tax rates. Our evidence sheds light on the inherent conflict between progressive tax structures and income inequality—income inequality increasing policies result in higher tax collections with a progressive tax system even though the latter aims to address income inequality.

How Subjective Performance Evaluations of Management Accountants Can be Biased by the News that They Report
Authors: Matanovic Sascha , Schmidt Maximilian , Wöhrmann Arnt
Published: August 2022

Internal reporting is a key activity of management accountants. Usually, managers make decisions and later receive a report about the favorable or unfavorable results of their decisions. In this context, we investigate how the favorability of the report affects how these managers evaluate the task performance of the management accountant preparing the report. Using an experiment, we predict and find that the favorability of the reported news biases managers' private assessments of the management accountant. Furthermore, we find that the bias is context-dependent: managers' evaluations of task performance are biased while their assessments of task-unrelated performance dimensions are not. Many internal reporting situations exist in which a decision-maker evaluates another employee who communicates the results of a decision to the decision-maker. Our study shows that subjective performance evaluations provided by these decision-makers can be biased. The results and implications for theory and practice are discussed.

Does Accounting Measurement Influence Market Efficiency? A Laboratory Market Perspective
Authors: Barradale Nigel Jones , Goodson Brian M. , Sooy Matthew
Published: August 2022

Using laboratory markets where accounting regimes can be directly compared with equivalent economic parameters, we test whether and how two different accounting measurement bases—historical cost (HC) and mark-to-market (MTM)—influence trader perceptions and asset mispricing. Our results show that traders perceive otherwise equivalent assets differently by regime, consistent with accounting regimes imposing differential information processing costs. In the MTM regime, traders integrate market price information to a greater extent and integrate asset fundamental information to a lesser extent. We also observe that traders in the MTM regime express prospective preferences for information about future market prices, but in HC prefer information about future dividends. These individual-level effects correspond with greater market-level mispricing/bubbles under MTM. Our results suggest that accounting regimes can, on their own, contribute to price bubbles and their subsequent collapse.

Cross-Cultural Differences in Perceived Control Effectiveness: The Role of Cognition
Authors: Du Mengjiao Nancy , Wong-On-Wing Bernard , Yang Dan
Published: August 2022

Considerable evidence from cultural psychology indicates that East Asians tend to reason holistically whereas Westerners tend to think analytically. We propose that this important difference in cognition can explain divergences in the perceived effectiveness of, and preference for, controls between the two cultures. We experimentally test our predictions by studying American and Chinese employees' perceptions of the Code of Conduct used by companies in both the U.S. and China. Overall, the results are consistent with our predictions and provide evidence of the role of cognition in influencing perceived control effectiveness. We contribute to efforts at a systematic understanding of cross-cultural differences in preferences for controls, and add to research that is important for furthering theory building.

How Do Auditors Assess Key Inputs in a Discounted Cash Flow Model of Goodwill?
Authors: Boritz J. Efrim , Timoshenko Lev M.
Published: August 2022

Using verbal protocol analysis, this study examines how 21 experienced auditors from four different firms assess the seven key inputs in a discounted cash flow (DCF) model used by management to value goodwill. The analysis compares the auditors' processes against a theoretical model derived from an analysis of accounting and auditing standards and authoritative sources of valuation methodology and identifies systematic omissions and inaccurate applications of key audit steps. It also relates those issues to audit outcomes at the individual input and the overall goodwill evaluation levels. The study's findings can help regulators, standard setters, practitioners and academics to better understand the limitations of auditors' competencies so that they can design strategies for mitigating them.
Accounting for Leases and Corporate Investment
Authors: Chen Ciao-Wei , Correia Maria , Urcan Oktay
Published: August 2022

We examine the real effects of lease-capitalization rules (i.e., standards that require firms to capitalize finance leases) on corporate investment. We show that the introduction of these rules leads to a decrease in investment, which is more pronounced for firms with high reliance on leases. We posit and find that lease capitalization affects investment via a learning channel and a contracting channel. Regarding the first channel, we argue that managers identify areas of overinvestment and activities that should be discontinued or downsized because of the information they collect and analyze to comply with lease-capitalization rules. Accordingly, we find that the effect of lease capitalization is stronger when learning opportunities are higher. Regarding the second channel, we argue that lease capitalization affects investment via its effect on contracts. Accordingly, we document an increase in the likelihood of covenant breaches and a stronger decline in investment for financially constrained firms.

Paraplough and Mouldboard Plow Performance Evaluation for Seedbed Preparation and Supporting Conservation Tillage
Authors: Abbaspour Gilandeh Mohammad Reza , Shahgholi Gholamhossein , Abbaspour Gilandeh Yousef
Published: August 2022

The final yield of agricultural products depends on the effective factors during the growing season of plants, especially the size of soil aggregates and proper size distribution of aggregates. Therefore, it is very important to select appropriate tillage implement and to provide a suitable seedbed in terms of aggregate size with the least energy consumption. It is a new idea to use paraplough and winged-paraplough as tools for seedbed preparation. To measure and determine the factors affecting the mean weight diameter (MWD) of aggregates and percentage of crop residues on the soil surface, a series of field trials were performed in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with five replications. The trials were conducted at three forward speeds of 2, 5 and 7 km·h−1 and three operating depths of 0–10; 0–20; 0–30 cm using the mouldboard plough and the paraplough with different wing configurations (without wings, with forward wings, with backward wings). The main impacts of implemented type, forward speed and operating depth and their mutual binary effects were significant at P <1% for both the MWD of aggregates and percentage of remaining residue. The highest MWD of aggregates was related to mouldboard plough (5.59 mm) and the lowest value was related to paraplough with backward wings (2.9 mm). It was found that the winged paraplough created a good pulverization in the soil and sustained a high percentage of crop residues on the soil surface. This issue can be very useful and important in the conservation tillage and the conservation of soil resources, especially in the water deficient areas where the soil is prone to erosion.

Published: August 2022

The automotive industry is experiencing an era of technological innovations from conventional passenger cars, trucks to agricultural machinery. Digital side mirror technology is one of the latest topics in the field of advanced driver assistance systems which is developing rapidly. This study evaluates the applicability of digital side mirror technology in the car interior, based on drivers’ feedbacks. The research was conducted in the form of a questionnaire to determine the drivers’ reactions and affinity to new technology, based on personal experience gained in simulated traffic and also in real traffic situations. The data obtained from this research were then subjected to Pearson’s Chi-squared test to evaluate the drivers’ dependence and comfort with the digital side mirror technology. Subsequently, mainly statistically significant dependencies in the preferences of individual drivers were sought due to their personal and anthropometric parameters. The results published in this study can be used mainly to understand the process by which drivers form an opinion on new technology which may be key to their further stance on the technology and may also affect the commercial success of digital mirror technology during their involvement in serial production.

Published: August 2022

When using complex spatial patterns for transportation, the straight screw conveyors have a series of obvious disadvantages. This paper presents a design of a flexible screw sectional working body that allows increasing the functional and operational characteristics of screw conveyors used in the transportation of bulk agricultural materials. A mathematical model of the dynamic system of a flexible screw conveyor has been established, and dynamic starting torques have been calculated at the rated load of loaded screw, and when the system is braking. Analysis of the results obtained shows that, with significant damping coefficients, the start-up transition process occurs smoothly, and the load reaches its rated value without torque and speed fluctuations. It has been established that fast braking significantly increases the dynamic loads that may exceed the maximum critical torque of the electric motor (by 50–70% on average) and the rated load torque (by 2.5–3 times).

Published: August 2022

The goal of this research was to determine the impact of a pooled and flat stepped spillway on energy losses. FLOW3D, which is a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) program, with mesh size of 0.015 mm was used for this purpose. First, the code was tested against an available experimental model data for both water flow depth and inception point position. The outcome precisely shows agreement with the available laboratory work. Second, the energy dissipation and residual head of two different types of stepped spillways, flat and pool was computationally compared. The results show that in a pooled stepped spillway, energy dissipation is larger than in a flat step. In addition, the residual head reduces for pooled stepped chutes.

Published: August 2022

Background:

Multiple primary malignancies (MPMs), especially coexistence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), are rare. The most likely clinical diagnosis in patient with tumor in another organ is metastatic brain tumor. Although GBM is the most common brain tumor, it is rarely coexistent with other malignancies.

Case Description:

A 64-year-old female presented with headache and dizziness, along with abdominal pain for 2 weeks before being admitted. The abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan showed a kidney tumor. The patient developed left hemiplegia, and the brain CT scan showed an intracranial tumor. The patient suggested for radical nephrectomy and craniotomy tumor removal. Histopathology of the kidney and brain tumor revealed two different features, which showed RCC and GBM. Immunohistochemistry result confirmed the diagnosis of GBM and IDH1 wild type; coexistent with clear cell RCC.

Conclusion:

The coexistence of carcinoma and glioma should be regarded as coincidental cases if it did not accomplish the criteria for tumor-to-tumor metastasis or proven to be a genetic syndrome. This case report provides an addition to the literature about double primary malignancy in a single patient. More studies are needed to confirm whether they have causal relationship or merely coincidental findings.

To get a comprehensive investigation, the respondents were required to perceive their views in the form of short comments of open-ended questions. Although most writers viewed positive responses towards the use of Grammarly, two main problems faced during the use of Grammarly were covered on technical issues and un maximum usage of particular features. Interestingly, the writers also considered that the role of teachers could not be replaced despite all the growing technological sophistication and implementation of self-learning, which is currently becoming a relatively dominant need in terms of learning independently. DOI: 10.26905/enjourme.v7i1.6849

Published: August 2022

The existence of multi varieties of English in today’s international communication requires the inclusion of what is called World Englishes (WE) in English teaching. While many have attempted to incorporate WE in English classrooms, such clear procedures on how to implement this along with the outcomes are so far hard to find. Therefore, this review elaborates on the implementation of WE, examines the challenges, and highlights the benefits of this incorporation. 18 research articles from the year 2010 to 2019 on the incorporation of WE worldwide starting from school to university context were reviewed. The review reveals that the teaching of WE is mostly still in the introduction phase since a majority of English teachers and learners still prefer the native English varieties. On the other hand, the introduction of WE to English learners may improve their confidence to use English. This review is expected to be able to provide clear current conditions of WE teaching, impose challenges that need to be addressed, and at the same time encourage the incorporation of WE in an English classroom.DOI: 10/26905/enjourme.v7i1/7827

Kur’ân Ayetlerinin Anlaşılmasında Tarihsel Arka Planın Önemi: Tefhîmü’l-Kur’ân Örneği
Authors: SAK Hasan İslam
Published: August 2022

Kur’ân-ı Kerîm’in indiği ortam hakkında bilgi sahibi olmak, ayetlerin daha iyi anlaşılmasına olanak sağlayacaktır. Zira Kur’ân; geleneği, göreneği olan bir topluma inmiş ve bu toplumu şekillendirmiştir. Kur’ân’ın, indiği toplumu şekillendirme biçimini anlayabilmek için ayetlerin tarihsel arka planı önem arz etmektedir. Böylece ayetler ile o günkü âdet ve alışkanlıklar arasındaki ilişkinin mahiyeti anlaşılabilecektir. Biz de bu çalışmamızda konunun önemine işaret etmeye gayret ettik. Bunu da tarihsel arka plan bilgisi bakımından zengin bir muhtevaya sahip olduğu için Mevdûdî’nin tefsiri “Tefhîmü’l-Kur’ân”daki örnekler üzerinden göstermeye çalıştık. Mevdûdî’nin eserinin bu husustaki farkını ortaya koymak amacıyla onun açıklamalarını diğer tefsirlerdeki izahlarla karşılaştırdık. Ayetlerin “tarihsel arka plan”ı denilince her ne kadar Ku’ân’ın nüzûl sürecinde toplumun içinde bulunduğu siyasî, sosyal, kültürel, ekonomik vb. durumlar anlaşılıyorsa da Mevdûdî bunu daha geniş anlamda kullanmış ve nüzûl öncesi döneme ait bilgileri de bu minvalde değerlendirmiştir. Yani o, ayetlerde yer alan nüzûl öncesi dönemlere müteallik bir olay yahut ifadenin nasıl ve ne zaman ortaya çıktığına, tarihî süreç içinde nasıl bir gelişim ve değişim gösterdiğine dair bilgilere de tarihî arka plan adı altında yer vermiştir. Mevdûdî’nin tarihî arka plan bilgisi verirken ayetlerin muhtevasından, sebeb-i nüzûl rivayetlerinden, tarih kitaplarından, Kitab-ı Mukaddes ve Talmud’dan, ansiklopedilerden, arkeolojik bilgi ve bulgulardan, Yahudi ve Hristiyan âlimlerin yazdığı günlüklerden istifade ettiği görülmüştür. Bu bilgileri paylaşırken zaman zaman haritalara ve krokilere de yer vermiştir. Onun eserinin bu yönüyle kendisinden önceki tefsirlerden ayrıldığı söylenebilir.

The purpose of the study is to find the optimal conditions for using digital technologies to evaluate learning outcomes and the quality of educational services. The article presents the results of an empirical study (an anonymous online survey) of the attitude of teachers and students in three Russian universities to pedagogical assessment using distance technologies. The educational environments of higher education institutions of different universities have achievements in activating the use of e-technologies and demand for their development in the pedagogical assessment of learning outcomes remains. The main problems hindering the process of introducing remote assessment of the results of teaching linguists using ICT are the lack of highly qualified personnel; insufficient level of readiness of subjects of the educational process for this form of control; difficulty in forming project groups for the development of educational tests; weak feedback and insufficient motivation among teachers and students.

Published: August 2022

The purpose of the research is to conduct an experiment to study the impact of translation memory systems (in terms of the use of terminology bases) on the effectiveness of future translators. The article substantiates the relevance of the use of translation memory systems, presents various areas of research on translation automation, considers the possibilities and prospects for the development of CAT systems. Article presents the results of an experimental study that would show how much novice translators rely on translation memory systems and whether they have the vocabulary at the proper level, which is typical for socio-political texts. The obtained results confirmed the hypothesis that when translating the original text by means of a CAT tool using a terminological base with erroneously translated lexical units, the quality of the translation of novice translators will decrease, and it will increase without using a terminological base with erroneously translated lexical units.
