The method of superposition was used to divide the solution into two parts, the part satisfying the mechanical boundary conditions and continuity conditions was first obtained by solving a system of linear equations; the other part was obtained by the separation of variables method. The present method is suitable for a multilayer piezoelectric infinite hollow cylinder consisting of arbitrary layers and subjected to arbitrary axisymmetric electric excitation. Dynamic responses of stress and electric potential are finally presented and analyzed.展开更多

The relationship among the reaction thrust, flow rate pressure, diameter do and length L of a cylinder nozzle is analyzed theoretically. The simulation of the flow field characteristics was conducted via the FLUENT computational fluid dynamics package. Effects of the inlet conditions and the nozzle dimensions on the reaction thrust of a water jet were addressed particularly. The reaction thrust experiments were performed on a custom-designed test apparatus. The experimental results reveal that a） the nozzle diameter and the inlet conditions exert great influence on the water jet reaction thrust; and b） for L≤4d0, where the nozzle is treated as a thin plate-orifice, the reaction thrust is independent of nozzle length; for L〉4d0, where the nozzle is treated as a long orifice, the reaction thrust can reach maximum under the condition of a certain flow rate. These findings lay a theoretical foundation for the design of nozzles and have significant value, especially for the future development of high-oressure water-let orooulsion technology.展开更多

Three engines are generator drivers whilst three engines are compressor drivers. Two of the compressor drive engines are running at peak load （T5.4-control）, hence production rate is limited by the available power from these engines. All the six engines analyzed run continuously without redundancy, hence gas turbine uptime is critical for the field＇s production and economy. The performance and operational experience with on-line wash at different water-to-air ratios and engine loads, as well as economy potentials related to successful on-line wash are given. This work is based on long-term operation with on-line wash, where operational data are collected and performance analyzed, over a 4-5 year period. All engines are operated with four-month intervals between maintenance stops, where off-line crank-wash is performed as well as other necessary maintenance and repairs. On-line wash is performed daily between the maintenance stops at full load （i.e., normal operating load for the subject engine）. To keep the engine as clean as possible and reduce degradation between maintenance stops, both an effective on-line water wash system as well as effective air intake filter system, are critical factors. The overall target is to maintain high engine performance, and extend the interval between maintenance stops through effective on-line wash. It is of vital importance to understand the gas turbine performance deterioration. The trending of its deviation from the engine baseline facilitates load-independent monitoring of the gas turbine＇s condition. Engine response to water injection at different loads and water-to-air ratios, as well as engine response to compressor deterioration is documented and analyzed. Instrument resolution and repeatability are key factors required in order to obtain reliable performance analysis results. Offshore instrumentation on older installations is often limited to the necessary instruments for machine control/protection, and additional instruments for effective performance monitoring and analysis are often missing or, if installed, have less accuracy. As a result of these analyses, a set of monitoring parameters is proposed for effective diagnosis of compressor degradation. Avenues for further research and development are proposed in order to further increase the understanding of the deterioration mechanisms and the gas turbine performance and response.展开更多

But the biggest challenge is super-knock, whose mechanism is unclear and has no effective strategy to suppress this super-knock until now. The effects of injection strategies on super-knock were experimentally investigated in a turbocharged GDI engine. It was found that two-stage injections during intake stroke （TSII） can eliminate super-knock. Meanwhile, the fuel consumption, emissions and exhaust tem- perature can keep optimized level. By sweeping the start of the 1st injection （SOIl）, end of the 2nd injection （EOI2） and the split injection ratios （ROI2） using 5000 cycles evaluation test at low-speed high load operating point, the optimized injection strategy for the typical TC-GDI engine is TSII with SOIl at middle of intake stroke, EOI2 at end of intake stroke, and ROI2 of 0.3.展开更多
