The results indicated that when the nitrogen content was increased from 1 to 100 ppm, the discharge pattern evolved from a concentric-ring pattern into a uniform pattern, and then returned to the concentricring pattern. In this process, the discharge mode at the current peak moment transformed from glow mode into Townsend mode, and then returned to glow mode. Further analyses revealed that with the increase of impurity level, the rate of Penning ionization at the pre-ionization stage increased at first and decreased afterwards, resulting in a similar evolution pattern of seed electron level. This evolution trend was believed to be resulted from the competition between the N2 partial pressure and the consumption rate of metastable species. Moreover, the discharge uniformity was found positively correlated with the spatial uniformity of seed electron density as well as the seed electron level. The reason for this correlation was explained by the reduction of radial electric field strength and the promotion of seed electron uniformity as pre-ionization level increases. The results obtained in this work may help better understand the pattern formation mechanism of atmospheric helium DBD under the variation of N2 impurity level, thereby providing a possible means of regulating the discharge performance in practical application scenarios.展开更多

This research focuses on analysis of the neutronic properties of a silicon carbide(SiC) cladding fuel assembly, which provides a greater safety margin as a type of accident-tolerant fuel for pressurized water reactors. The general physical performance of SiC cladding is explored to ascertain its neutronic performance. The neutron spectrum, accumulation of ^(239)Pu, physical characteristics,temperature reactivity coefficient, and power distribution are analyzed. Furthermore, the influences of a burnable poison rod and enrichment are explored. SiC cladding assemblies show a softer neutron spectrum and flatter power distribution than conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel assemblies. Lower enrichment fuel is required when SiC cladding is adopted. However, the positive reactivity coefficient associated with the SiC material remains to be offset. The results reveal that SiC cladding assemblies show broad agreement with the neutronic performance of conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel. In the meantime, its unique physical characteristics can lead to improved safety and economy.展开更多

To improve the measurement's accuracy and precision, a new internal standardization scheme, which we named changed internal standardization, was compared with the traditional internal standardization and no internal standardization for the analysis of inorganic elements. The new internal standardization scheme used the atomic line of carbon at 247.86 nm and the molecular band of CN at 388.34 nm and C_2 at 516.32 nm to normalize the lines of inorganic elements that were distributed in the same spectral channel. The performance of the utilization of the new internal standardization scheme was evaluated using a set of coal samples, including twenty calibration samples and five validation samples. The results show that the coefficients of determination R^2 and the slope of calibration models coupled with changed internal standardization are better than that of the calibration models coupled with fixed internal standardization and no internal standardization. Moreover, the measurement accuracy and reproducibility of changed internal standardization for the analysis of five validation samples also yielded further improvement. The results that we obtained suggest that changed internal standardization could compensate for the matrix effects, as well as the influence of the difference in the spectral response of the light collection system.展开更多

These are the thermostat plan, the thermal accumulator plan, and the CAES plan. Calculations show that the thermostat plan can provide over 15,000 m2 of building air-conditioning/heating load for each kilo- meter of roadway, but electric power is needed to run the system. Numerical research proved that the accumulation of hot water in the roadway for seasonal heating purposes (a temperature swing from 90 to 54 °C) is a viable possibility. The CAES plan proposes using the discarded coal mine tunnel as a peak- ing power station with an energy storage density over 7000 kJ/m3. It can be concluded that presently abandoned coal mines could be reformed into future energy centers for a city.展开更多

Iterative channel estimation( ICE) can be used to refine channel estimation with limited number of pilots,by coupling the channel estimator with channel decoder. In this paper,various feedback strategies in ICE are discussed. The performance of a decision feedback based on the cost function is improved by modifying the design and another four feedback strategies are summarized,including hard/soft decision feedback and their threshold-controlled versions. Simulation results show that ICE can achieve impressive gains over the non-iterative receiver and the gains are more significant with fewer pilots. Furthermore,soft decision feedback outperforms hard decision feedback; while the feedback based on the cost function and soft decision feedback have quite close performance.展开更多

The complicated signal can be decomposed into a finite intrinsic mode functions (IMF) by the EMD, then define and compute the projection area on X-axis of each IMF—, the specific gravity of SIMF—, and the maximum of —. We can get a new scheme of transformer-protection based on comparing the difference between inrush and fault current. Theoretical analysis show that the method can precisely discriminate inrush and fault current, fault clearance time is about 20ms. Moreover, it is convenient to achieve and hardly be affect by not-periodic component.
文摘In this paper, the model of turbine governor?based on the physical principles is constituted to improve the accuracy of power system dynamic simulation, making the results of simulation consistent with the actual situation. The unit and grid coupling model which reflects the interaction between thermal system of power plant and power system is built using EMTDC/PSCAD. The influence of nonlinear characteristics on the valve opening and the steam turbine mechanical power is also analyzed in this paper. The results of simulation show that the improper setting of parameters reflecting nonlinear characteristics of turbine governor can lead to the cyclical oscillations of the valve opening and the?steam turbine mechanical power, and even can lead to the power oscillation persistently. The research achievements in this paper have a certain reference value on exploring the causes of power oscillation from the prime mover.

文摘Gas turbine power units,as an effective way to cope with the severe challenge of renewable energy accommodation in power grids,arouse the interest of power enterprises in the deep peak-load regulation performance.Two common alternative load-control strategies including constant turbine inlet temperature(TIT)and constant turbine exhaust temperature(TET)regulations were taken into consideration.To comparatively investigate the part-load performance under these strategies,both mathematical and physical models were set up successively to serve as a validation and complementary to each other.For the mathematical model of compressor with inlet guide vane(IGV),combustor and turbine,stage-stacking method based on blade average geometric parameter,energy conservation and turbine stage model were adopted respectively.For the physical model,design and off-design analysis were carried out based on GT PRO and THERMOFLEX respectively.The simulation result of mathematical model validated the reliability of the physical model.Based on this,the influence of ambient temperature and different load-regulating strategies on the off-design performance of gas turbine power units was studied in THERMOFLEX.The results in the case of a PG 9351FA gas turbine show that the ambient temperature has a great impact on system performance,i.e.,every 5℃ increase in the ambient temperature produces a reduction of 3.7%in the relative full-load output and 1.1%in the relative efficiency respectively;when the gas turbine operates under constant TIT strategy,TET starts to rise till it reaches the maximum allowable value with the load rate decreasing,and IGV keeps at the minimum angle with both TIT and TET decreasing when the load rate is lower than 65%;when the gas turbine operates under constant TET strategy,TIT drops slightly at load rate of above 60%while both TIT and TET evidently decrease below 60%load rate operating along the constant corrected speed line at the minimum allowable IGV opening;gas turbine effi-ciency is greatly affected by load rate and the performance degradation is more obvious especially in lower load rate regions;constant TET strategy is superior in the operating efficiency to constant TIT strategy under part-load conditions.

文摘The transient multiphysics models were updated in CAMPUS to evaluate the accident-tolerant fuel performance under accident conditions.CAMPUS is a fuel performance code developed based on COMSOL.The simulated results of the UO_(2)–Zircaloy fuel performance under accident conditions were compared with those of the FRAPTRAN code and the experimental data to verify the correctness of the updated CAMPUS.Subsequently,multiphysics models of the UO_(2)–BeO fuel and composite SiC coated with Cr(SiC_(f)/SiC-Cr)cladding were implemented in CAMPUS.Finally,the fuel performance of the three types of fuel cladding systems under Loss of Coolant Accident(LOCA)and Reactivity Insertion Accident(RIA)conditions was evaluated and compared,including the temperature distribution,stress distribution,pressure evolution,and cladding failure time.The results showed that the fuel temperature of the UO_(2) fuel under accident conditions without pre-irradiation was lower after being combined with SiC_(f)/SiC-Cr cladding.Moreover,the centerline and outer surface temperatures of the UO_(2)–BeO fuel combined with SiC_(f)/SiC-Cr cladding reduced further under accident conditions.The cladding temperature increased after the combination with the SiC_(f)/SiC-Cr cladding under accident conditions with pre-irradiation.In addition,the use of SiC_(f)/SiC-Cr cladding significantly reduced the cladding hoop strain and plenum pressure.

文摘In power systems,failures of vulnerable lines can trigger large-scale cascading failures,and vulnerability assessment is dedicated to locating these lines and reducing the risks of such failures.Based on a structure and attribute network embedding(SANE)algorithm,a novel quantitative vulnerability analysis method is proposed to identify vulnerable lines in this research.First,a two-layered random walk network with topological and electrical properties of transmission lines is established.Subsequently,based on the weighted degree of nodes in the two-layered network,the inter-layer and intra-layer walking transition probabilities are developed to obtain walk sequences.Then,a Word2Vec algorithm is applied to obtain lowdimension vectors representing transmission lines,according to obtained walk sequences for calculating the vulnerability index of transmissions lines.Finally,the proposed method is compared with three widely used methods in two test systems.Results show the network embedding based method is superior to those comparison methods and can provide guidance for identifying vulnerable lines.

文摘CF3I has been widely considered as a potential alternative for SF6,because it has low global warming potential(GWP)but an insulation capability that is 1.2 times greater than that of SF6.In this paper,the electron swarm parameters of CF3I and its gas mixture with N2,including the effective ionization coefficient and electron drift velocity,are examined theoretically through the Boltzmann equation method in the condition of steady-state Townsend(SST)experiments.Based on the derived data of the limiting field strength of CF3I-N2gas mixture,taking into consideration of environmental aspects such as GWP,ozone depletion potential(ODP),liquefaction temperature and toxicity,we studied the possibility of applying the gas mixture as the insulation medium in gas-insulated switchgears(GIS)or cubic type gas-insulated switchgears(C-GIS).It is found that CF3I-N2gas mixtures contained 30%～70%CF3I perform comprehensively better than pure SF6and compressed N2,and especially in medium and low voltage environments,the boiling point of CF3I-N2gas mixture meets the domestic and global requirements in mid-low latitude regions.Therefore we conclude that the gas mixture is acceptable for replacing SF6as the insulation medium in C-GISs.

文摘In resonance with the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident lesson, a novel fuel design to enhance safety regarding severe accident scenarios has become increasingly appreciated in the nuclear power industry. This research focuses on analysis of the neutronic properties of a silicon carbide(SiC) cladding fuel assembly, which provides a greater safety margin as a type of accident-tolerant fuel for pressurized water reactors. The general physical performance of SiC cladding is explored to ascertain its neutronic performance. The neutron spectrum, accumulation of ^(239)Pu, physical characteristics,temperature reactivity coefficient, and power distribution are analyzed. Furthermore, the influences of a burnable poison rod and enrichment are explored. SiC cladding assemblies show a softer neutron spectrum and flatter power distribution than conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel assemblies. Lower enrichment fuel is required when SiC cladding is adopted. However, the positive reactivity coefficient associated with the SiC material remains to be offset. The results reveal that SiC cladding assemblies show broad agreement with the neutronic performance of conventional Zr alloy cladding fuel. In the meantime, its unique physical characteristics can lead to improved safety and economy.

文摘A 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser was used to ablate fly ash samples.The characteristics of the spectral lines measured from the laserablated fly ash plasmas are presented with special attention to atomic and molecular carbon emission.It is shown that the intensity of the atomic line C I 192.9 nm is weak and the shot-to-shot intensity is fluctuant.The carbon atomic line C I247.7 nm is relatively intensive and stable,however it is seriously interfered with by Fe I 247.8 nm.The intensity of the CN molecular line is close to that of C I 247.7 nm and the CN line is stable and less interfered with.The comparison of molecular CN emission under different conditions(air,Ar and N_2) shows that the CN lines detected from the plasmas formed in an atmospheric environment are correlated with the reaction of carbon atoms in the plasma with the nitrogen in air,which indicates that the CN line is also important in pulsed laser ablation fly ash plasmas and this information can be incorporated in the detection of unburned carbon content in fly ash.Finally,a calibration curve is established with a correlation coefficient R2 of 0.999,using C I247.7 nm and the CN molecular line as associated variables.In addition,accuracy is improved to a certain extent.

文摘Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy was employed to determine the inorganic elements in coal. To improve the measurement's accuracy and precision, a new internal standardization scheme, which we named changed internal standardization, was compared with the traditional internal standardization and no internal standardization for the analysis of inorganic elements. The new internal standardization scheme used the atomic line of carbon at 247.86 nm and the molecular band of CN at 388.34 nm and C_2 at 516.32 nm to normalize the lines of inorganic elements that were distributed in the same spectral channel. The performance of the utilization of the new internal standardization scheme was evaluated using a set of coal samples, including twenty calibration samples and five validation samples. The results show that the coefficients of determination R^2 and the slope of calibration models coupled with changed internal standardization are better than that of the calibration models coupled with fixed internal standardization and no internal standardization. Moreover, the measurement accuracy and reproducibility of changed internal standardization for the analysis of five validation samples also yielded further improvement. The results that we obtained suggest that changed internal standardization could compensate for the matrix effects, as well as the influence of the difference in the spectral response of the light collection system.

文摘We have studied three plans for re-use of the abandoned mine roadway tunnels as an energy center. These are the thermostat plan, the thermal accumulator plan, and the CAES plan. Calculations show that the thermostat plan can provide over 15,000 m2 of building air-conditioning/heating load for each kilo- meter of roadway, but electric power is needed to run the system. Numerical research proved that the accumulation of hot water in the roadway for seasonal heating purposes (a temperature swing from 90 to 54 °C) is a viable possibility. The CAES plan proposes using the discarded coal mine tunnel as a peak- ing power station with an energy storage density over 7000 kJ/m3. It can be concluded that presently abandoned coal mines could be reformed into future energy centers for a city.

文摘The extremely limited bandwidth in underwater acoustic communication makes channel estimation using fewer pilot symbols more challenging. Iterative channel estimation( ICE) can be used to refine channel estimation with limited number of pilots,by coupling the channel estimator with channel decoder. In this paper,various feedback strategies in ICE are discussed. The performance of a decision feedback based on the cost function is improved by modifying the design and another four feedback strategies are summarized,including hard/soft decision feedback and their threshold-controlled versions. Simulation results show that ICE can achieve impressive gains over the non-iterative receiver and the gains are more significant with fewer pilots. Furthermore,soft decision feedback outperforms hard decision feedback; while the feedback based on the cost function and soft decision feedback have quite close performance.
