Abstract The power generation of the photovoltaic plant is related to the cleanliness of the photovoltaic modules. The accumulation of natural dust is the main source of pollution, which is affected by human activities and meteorological factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, and rainfall concentration in the current region. On the basis of particle swarm optimization (PSO) and the least‐squares support vector machine (LSSVM), the density of dust on photovoltaic modules was estimated. The authors proposed that the inertia weight decreased as a concave function to improve the efficiency of optimization and let the two positive constants change dynamically to improve convergence performance. The dust accumulation prediction model was established considering natural rainfall and the authors obtained the attenuation rate of the photovoltaic power output. Finally, the experiments in Hangzhou showed that the model can predict the density of accumulated dust quickly, which provides a theory for predicting PV power generation and managing the cleaning frequency.

Abstract Cetirizine hydrochloride (CTZ), an antiallergic drug, is a new‐generation H1 receptor antagonist and a second‐generation H1 antihistamine. We aimed to prepare cetirizine hydrochloride liposomes, based on which cetirizine hydrochloride liposomal (CTZL) in situ gel (ISG) was prepared, to improve the retention time in the eye. CTZL were prepared by the ethanol injection method combined with the ammonium sulfate gradient method. A CTZ liposomal temperature‐sensitive gel was prepared using the cold dissolution method. Large‐eared white rabbits were used in retention and irritation experiments. The liposomes were small single‐chambered liposomes, spherical or sphere‐like, with a vesicle size of 187.03 ± 6.20 nm, an encapsulation efficiency of 70.39 ± 1.13%, and a drug loading capacity of 4.63 ± 0.06%. The gelling temperatures before and after dilution by simulated tear fluid were 26.1 ± 0.2°C and 34.2 ± 0.2°C, the vesicle size was 184.94 ± 7.28 nm, and the liposomes were spherical or sphere‐like in the gel matrix. The in vitro dissolution and release experiments indicate that the gel was released upon dissolution and exhibited a zero‐level release pattern. Preparation into liposomes and liposomal gels prolonged the ocular retention time of the formulation without ocular irritation.

A new design optimization method is proposed for the problem of high-precision aerodynamic design of multistage axial compressors. The method mainly contains three aspects: full-blade surface parametrization can significantly reduce the number of control variables per blade row and increase the degrees of freedom of the leading edge blade angle compared with the traditional semiblade parametric method; secondly, the artificial bee colony algorithm improved initialization and food source exploration and exploitation mechanism to enhance the global optimization ability and convergence speed, and a distributed optimization system is built on the supercomputing platform based on this method; finally, a phased optimization strategy based on the “synchronous change in multirow blades” is proposed, and expert experience is introduced to achieve a better balance between exploration and exploitation. The optimization method is applied to the AL-31F four-stage low-pressure compressor. As a result, the adiabatic efficiency is improved by 0.67% and the surge margin is improved by 3.1% under the premise that the total pressure ratio and mass flow rate satisfy the constraints, which verifies the effectiveness and engineering practicality of the proposed optimization method in the field of multistage axial flow compressor aerodynamic optimization.
