Based on regulated and transparent power transactions, SGCC actively enhanced service quality, strived for optimal allocation of electricity in a wider scope. Meanwhile, great achievements have been made in energy-conservation and emission-reduction. This paper briefly introduces three-tier power market construction with market transaction data in 2007, then summarizes and analyzes the characteristics of power trading. Finally, suggestions on further development of power market are tentatively given.展开更多

No doubt, inter-party exchange has played an important part in this process. After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949. the Communist Party of China (CPC), China's ruling Party, has maintained friendly relations with its counterparts in African countries, greatly promoting cooperation in various fields between China and Africa.展开更多

Power spectrum density (PSD) analysis was applied to obtain the dominant frequency (F) of the simulated differential particle number (APLR) between the two half beds. Effects of fluidization velocity (u) and bed material inventory (H) on the solid exchange behavior were studied using the CFD-DEM model. Not only snapshots of the simulated particle flow patterns using the OpenGL code but also the dominant frequency of APLR was similar to the experimental results. The simulation results show that higher fluidization velocity assists the exchange of more particles between the two half beds, but the dispersion of clusters on the bed surface into single particles decreases the cluster exchange frequency. A greater bed material inventory results in more intense cluster exchange. The cluster exchange frequency decreases with an increase of the bed material inventory.展开更多
