深井型直流接地极散流机理研究

准确计算直流接地装置的散流性能及接地特性是优化设计直流接地极的基础。提出了基于恒定电场理论的直流接地装置性能有限元数值计算模型,针对求解区域和接地导体截面尺寸的差异导致的剖分困难、计算量大的问题,引入"薄壳"理论,在保证计算精度的前提下大大减小了计算量;通过与文献数据对比,验证了该方法的有效性。建立典型结构的深井型接地极模型,计算深井接地极散流过程产生的地中电流密度、电场强度、接地电阻和最大跨步电压等参数;分析电流注入点个数、接地极导体长度、接地极埋深、导体并联根数以及土壤电阻率等因素对接地性能的影响。结果表明:深井型直流接地极的散流具有明显的端部效应,其接地性能基本不受电流注入点个数的影响;接地电阻和最大跨步电压随导体长度、埋深、并联根数的增加而减小,并呈现饱和趋势;在均匀土壤中,接地电阻和最大跨步电压与土壤电阻率成线性关系。

Electrochemical Properties of Electrodes with Different Shapes and Diffusion Kinetic Analysis of Microbial Fuel Cells on Ocean Floor

Microbial fuel cell(MFC) on the ocean floor is a kind of novel energy-harvesting device that can be developed to drive small instruments to work continuously.The shape of electrode has a great effect on the performance of the MFC.In this paper,several shapes of electrode and cell structure were designed,and their performance in MFC were compared in pairs:Mesh(cell-1) vs.flat plate(cell-2),branch(cell-3) vs.cylinder(cell-4),and forest(cell-5) vs.disk(cell-6) FC.Our results showed that the maximum power densities were 16.50,14.20,19.30,15.00,14.64,and 9.95 mWm-2 for cell-1,2,3,4,5 and 6 respectively.And the corre-sponding diffusion-limited currents were 7.16,2.80,18.86,10.50,18.00,and 6.900 mA.The mesh and branch anodes showed higher power densities and much higher diffusion-limited currents than the flat plate and the cylinder anodes respectively due to the low diffusion hindrance with the former anodes.The forest cathode improved by 47% of the power density and by 161% of diffusion-limited current than the disk cathode due to the former's extended solid/liquid/gas three-phase boundary.These results indicated that the shape of electrode is a major parameter that determining the diffusion-limited current of an MFC,and the differences in the elec-trode shape lead to the differences in cell performance.These results would be useful for MFC structure design in practical applica-tions.

STUDY ON THE FUNCTION OF REINFORCED RUBBER OF MODIFIED POWDERED COAL ASH

The powdered coal ash (PCA) was classified, then the ash particle (- 45μm) was modified by a surface active agent and obtained modified powder coal ash (MPCA). The character of the MPC was investigated, when it was used as a new type reinforced filler of rubber.The results show that MPCA can replace or party replace carbon black or silica as reinforced fillers of rubbers.

Density distribution in a heavy-medium cyclone

Heavy-medium cyclones are widely used to upgrade run-of-mine coal.But the understanding of flow in a cyclone containing a dense medium is still incomplete.By introducing turbulent diffusion into calculations of centrifugal settling a theoretical distribution function giving the density field can be deduced.Qualitative analysis of the density field in every part of a cylindrical cyclone suggests an optimum design that has exhibited good separation effectiveness and anti-wear performance when in commercial operation.

Evapotranspiration and Removal Performance in the Treatment of High Salinity LandfilI-Leachate Using HSF

In this study, the water budget in the treatment of high salinity landfill-leachate was estimated and the influence of evapotranspiration （ET） on treatment performance was investigated. The salinity of the inside of horizontal subsurface flow constructed wetland （HSF） of the raw leachate inflow was 15.0± 3.4 g.Cl/L which was in the level of the salinity of the survival limit of reed, and that of the double diluted leachate inflow was 9.3 ± 1.9 g.CI7L. There were large differences in the vegetation between HSF of the raw leachate inflow and that of the double diluted leachate inflow. The dense vegetation bed of double diluted leachate inflow during the growing season （April-October） provided a high ET and a large water loss, which made great contributions to the reduction of the outflow load of COD and T-N. The HSF with die-back reeds in the non-growing season （November-March） provided a slight ET and a small water loss and made less of a contribution to pollutant removal compared to the HSF with dense vegetation bed during the growing season. However, the HSF with die-back reeds during the non-growing season exhibited higher removal performance than the unplanted HSF.

Study on Heat Dissipater for High-Power Thyristors in Explosion-Proof Shell

A new type water-cooled heat dissipater for multiple high-power thyristors in explosion-proof shell used in coal mine was designed, and then, the numerical computation of the three-dimensional steady-state temperature distributions under different working conditions for cooling core was conducted in order to understand in detail the heat transfer performance. Based on the computation results, the temperature differences and the maximum heat transfer rates were given. These results of the study on the heat dissipater lay a basis for optimising its structure design and guiding its operation.

Experimental and Numerical Studies of Paraguayan Chaco Natural Gas in a Counterflow Diffusion Flame

Combustion is a chemical phenomenon in which a multitude of elementary chemical reactions take place, resulting in the overall process of fuel oxidation. Natural gas fuel has been explored for a few decades and extracted for a few years in the region of Paraguayan Chaco, near Bolivia border. Currently, natural gas is not very important in Paraguay＇s energy matrix, however it could be in the near future if higher volumes are extracted and transported to the most populated cities, specially to the capital. In order to improve Paraguayan natural gas combustion performance, an understanding of its fundamental properties and the combustion pathways is required. This study presents new data for Paraguayan Chaco natural gas combustion in a laminar counterflow diffusion flame configuration at atmospheric pressure. Visible chemiluminescence of excited radicals CH＊ and C2^＊ is employed experimentally. 1D numerical simulation was carried out using Paraguayan Chaco natural gas chemical composition and a standard kinetic mechanism, to which we added CH＊ and C] reactions. Typical flame structures resulting from simulation are presented and a validation of the model is realized comparing experimental and numerical CH＊ and C~ radicals profiles.

Constructal optimization for H-shaped multi-scale heat exchanger based on entransy theory

Analogizing with the definition of thermal efficiency of a heat exchanger,the entransy dissipation efficiency of a heat exchanger is defined as the ratio of dimensionless entransy dissipation rate to dimensionless pumping power of the heat exchanger.For the constraints of the total tube volume and total tube surface area of the heat exchanger,the constructal optimization of an H-shaped multi-scale heat exchanger is carried out by taking entransy dissipation efficiency maximization as optimization objective,and the optimal construct of the H-shaped multi-scale heat exchanger with maximum entransy dissipation efficiency is obtained.The results show that for the specified total tube volume of the heat exchanger,the optimal constructs of the first order T-shaped heat exchanger based on the maximizations of the thermal efficiency and entransy dissipation efficiency are obviously different with the lower mass flow rates of the cold and hot fluids.For the H-shaped multi-scale heat exchanger,the entransy dissipation efficiency decreases with the increase in mass flow rate when the heat exchanger order is fixed;for the specified dimensionless mass flow rate M(M<32.9),the entransy dissipation efficiency decreases with the increase in the heat exchanger order.The performance of the multi-scale heat exchanger is obviously improved compared with that of the single-scale heat exchanger.Moreover,the heat exchanger subjected to the total tube surface area constraint is also discussed in the paper.The optimization results obtained in this paper can provide a great compromise between the heat transfer and flow performances of the heat exchanger,provide some guidelines for the optimal designs of heat exchangers,and also enrich the connotation of entransy theory.

Connection between heat diffusion and heat conduction in one-dimensional systems

Heat and energy are conceptually different, but often are assumed to be the same without justification. An effective method for investigating diffusion properties in equilibrium systems is discussed. With this method, we demonstrate that for one-dimensional systems, using the indices of particles as the space variable, which has been accepted as a convention, may lead to misleading conclusions. We then show that though in one-dimensional systems there is no general connection between energy diffusion and heat conduction, however, a general connection between heat diffusion and heat conduction may exist. Relaxation behavior of local energy current fluctuations and that of local heat current fluctuations are also studied. We find that they are significantly different,though the global energy current equals the globe heat current.
