Distributed wide field electromagnetic method based on high-order 2^(n) sequence pseudo random signal

To make three-dimensional electromagnetic exploration achievable,the distributed wide field electromagnetic method(WFEM)based on the high-order 2^(n) sequence pseudo-random signal is proposed and realized.In this method,only one set of high-order pseudo-random waveforms,which contains all target frequencies,is needed.Based on high-order sequence pseudo-random signal construction algorithm,the waveform can be customized according to different exploration tasks.And the receivers are independent with each other and dynamically adjust the acquisition parameters according to different requirements.A field test in the deep iron ore of Qihe−Yucheng showed that the distributed WFEM based on high-order pseudo-random signal realizes the high-efficiency acquisition of massive electromagnetic data in quite a short time.Compared with traditional controlled-source electromagnetic methods,the distributed WFEM is much more efficient.Distributed WFEM can be applied to the large scale and high-resolution exploration for deep resources and minerals.

Non-Dimensional Analysis of Thermal Effect on Skin Exposure to an Electromagnetic Beam

We consider the problem of inducing withdrawal reflex on a test subject by exposing the subject’s skin to an electromagnetic beam. Heat-sensitive nociceptors in the skin are activated wherever the temperature is above the activation temperature. Withdrawal reflex occurs when the activated volume reaches a threshold. We non-dimensionalize the problem to write the temperature as the product of a parameter-free function of non-dimensional variables and a function of beam parameters. This formulation allows studying beam parameters without knowing skin material parameters. We examine the effects of spot size, total power and distribution type of the electromagnetic beam on 3 quantities at reflex: 1) the time to reflex, 2) the maximum temperature increase, and 3) the total energy consumption. We find that the flat-top beam is the best, with the lowest energy consumption and the smallest maximum temperature increase. The Super-Gaussian beam is only slightly inferior to the flat-top. The Gaussian beam has by far the worst performance among these three.

An 2d Analysis of Electromagnetic and Joule Heating Distribution in Electro-Slag Remelting Process

Electro-Slag Remelting(ESR)is a commonly used for the production of high-value-added alloys such as superalloys and specialty steels.In consideration of high trial costs and the complexity of the process,a steady-state numerical model has been developed that accounts for electromagnetic phenomena and coupled heat in an axisymmetrical geometry.The model considers electromagnetic effects and heat transfer.First of all,Maxwell equations are solved to determine the magnetic flux density,current density and Joule heating.Especially,the skin effect is shown and discussed based on numerical results.It is shown that the current density distribution on the external surfaces of slag and ingot.In slag,due to the low electrical conductivity of slag,the current distribution changes,gathering on the end of electrode.Next,Joule heating distribution is calculated by the Joule law.Joule heating is mainly in the slag,because the electrical conductivity in the slag is much lower than that in the electrode and the ingot.The maximum joule heating is below the interface of electrode and slag.

Electric-magnetic-force characteristics of rare earth barium copper oxide superconductor high-field coils based on screening effect and strain sensitivity

Rare earth barium copper oxide(REBCO)is the most researched and commercialized second-generation high-temperature superconducting material.Due to the anisotropic structure,strong deformation sensitivity,and central field errors caused by screening current effects,it is still a challenge for commercialization applications.In this study,the transversely isotropic constitutive relationship is selected as the mechanical model based on the structural characteristics of REBCO tapes,and suitable microelements are selected to equate the elastic constants using their average stress-strain relationships.Then,a two-dimensional axisymmetric model for coils wound by single-layer tapes is constructed to analyze the dependence of the electric-magnetic-force distribution in the tape on the strain.Finally,the anisotropic approximation of the homogenized bulk method is used to equate large-turn high-field coils,and the electric-magnetic-force distribution characteristics of the coils with/without screening effects and mechanical strain conditions are investigated,respectively.The results reveal that the mechanical strain has a weakening effect on the electromagnetic field distribution of superconducting tapes,but causes a significant enhancement in the force field distribution.In the presence of 0.5% mechanical strain,the maximum weakening of the peak value of the current density and the critical current density inside the high-field coil can reach about 8% and 13%,respectively,with a nearly 5 times increase in the peak stress.The screening current makes the current field distribution inside the coil improve by about 10 times.The screening current induced magnetic field can reach up to 0.8 T,making the relative error of the high-field coil center up to 7.8%.

Research on a Folded Blumlein Line Using Kapton Film as Dielectrics

In this project, a Blumlein line with a folded parallel-plates configuration using Kapton film as dielectrics was investigated. The characteristic parameters of this Blumlein line were analysed theoretically. The electric field distributions under different inner radii of the folded part were simulated. The output waveforms on the match load were also simulated by means of an equivalent electric circuit. According to the results of the theoretecal analysis and simulation, a Blumlein line with the folded parallel-plates configuration with an output voltage of 500 kV, a pulse duration of 100 ns, and a characteristic impedance of 4.773Ω was designed and manufactured. The experimental results properly demonstrated the wave transmitting process in the Blumlein line, and provided the voltage waveform of 500 kV and the current waveform of 50 kA with a pulse duration of 150 ns. Some engineering problems such as the edge electric breakdown and measuring precision by a resistance divider were revealed, which must be solved in future work to produce a more compact transmission line.
