Bubble rise velocity in a pulsed gas-solid fluidized bed was studied using photographic and computational fluid dynamics methods. The variation in bubble rise velocity was investigated as a function of the periodic pulsed air flow. A predictive model of bubble rise velocity was derived: ub=ψ(Ut+Up-Umf)+kp(gdb)(1/2). The software of Origin was used to fit the empirical coefficients to give ψ = 0.4807 and kp = 0.1305. Experimental verification of the simulations shows that the regular change in bubble rise velocity is accurately described by the model. The correlation coefficient was 0.9905 for the simulations and 0.9706 for the experiments.展开更多

In this research, the ZETEX avalanche transistors are used as the switches in a Marx circuit to generate stable voltage pulses with double-exponential waveform and fast rise time. By using these transistors, the circuit is able to generate higher pulsed voltage with fewer stages. A three stages and a ten stages Marx circuit, as well as their triggering circuits, are designed. The two Marx circuits are also tested by simulations based on the Pspice code and by experiments, results of which are consistent with each other. With the ten stages Marx circuit, we obtain positive and negative pulses with the rise time of about 1.5 ns, the amplitude above 1 100 V, and the pulse width below 5 ns. It is proved that the proposed Marx circuit equipped with avalanche transistors could be an effective kind of solid-state pulse generator.展开更多

As the core of the main electronic system of the NFM, the neutron-gamma pulse shape discrimination (n-γ PSD) can distinguish the neutron pulse from the gamma pulse and other disturbing pulses according to the thresholds of the rising time and the amplitude pre-installed on the board, the double timing point CFD method is used to get the rising time of the pulse. The n-γ PSD can provide an accurate neutron count.展开更多
