However, high-frequency circuit oscillation occurs during the underwater high voltage pulse discharge process, which brings security risks to the stability of the pulse fracturing system. In order to solve this problem, an underwater pulse power discharge system was established, the circuit oscillation generation conditions were analyzed and the circuit oscillation suppression method was proposed. Firstly, the system structure was introduced and the charging model of the energy storage capacitor was established by the state space average method. Next, the electrode high-voltage breakdown model was established through COMSOL software, the electrode breakdown process was analyzed according to the electron density distribution image, and the plasma channel impedance was estimated based on the conductivity simulation results. Then the underwater pulse power discharge process and the circuit oscillation generation condition were analyzed, and the circuit oscillation suppression strategy of using the thyristor to replace the gas spark switch was proposed. Finally, laboratory experiments were carried out to verify the precision of the theoretical model and the suppression effect of circuit oscillation. The experimental results show that the voltage variation of the energy storage capacitor, the impedance change of the pulse power discharge process, and the equivalent circuit in each discharge stage were consistent with the theoretical model. The proposed oscillation suppression strategy cannot only prevent the damage caused by circuit oscillation but also reduce the damping oscillation time by77.1%, which can greatly improve the stability of the system. This research has potential application value in the field of underwater pulse power discharge for reservoir reconstruction.展开更多

Unlike a conventional silicon critical electric field that is constant and independent of silicon film thickness, the proposed silicon critical electric field increases sharply with silicon fihn thickness decreasing especially in the case of thin films, and can come to 141V/μm at a film thickness of 0.1 μm which is much larger than the normal value of about 30 V/μm. From the proposed formula of silicon critical electric field, the expressions of dielectric layer electric field and vertical breakdown voltage (VB,V) are obtained. Based on the model, an ultra thin film can be used to enhance dielectric layer electric field and so increase vertical breakdown voltage for SOI devices because of its high silicon critical electric field, and with a dielectric layer thickness of 2 μm the vertical breakdown voltages reach 852 and 300V for the silicon film thicknesses of 0.1 and 5μm, respectively. In addition, a relation between dielectric layer thickness and silicon film thickness is obtained, indicating a minimum vertical breakdown voltage that should be avoided when an SOI device is designed. 2D simulated results and some experimental results are in good agreement with analytical results.展开更多

Much work has been done to investigate single-strike waveforms of VFTO. However, little study has been carried out investigating the repeated strike process, which would influence VFTO significantly. In this paper, we carried out 450 effective experiments in an ultra-high voltage test circuit, and conducted calculations through the Monte Carlo simulation method, to investigate the repeated strike process. Firstly, the mechanism of the repeated strike process is proposed, based on the ex- perimentai results. Afterwards, statistical breakdown characteristics of disconnectors are obtained and analyzed. Finally, simulations of the repeated strike process are conducted, which indicate that the dielectric strength recovery speed and polarity effect factor have a joint effect on VFTO. This study enhances the understanding of the nature of VFTO, and may help to optimize the disconnector designed to minimize VFTO.展开更多

The design is based on optical-to-electrical power converters, solid-state diode lasers and optical fibers. Command signals are transmitted via the same up-fiber used to send power from secondary power supply to primary converter. The upward data transmission is completed during the brief interruption of power delivery without affecting steady power-supply. A simple comparator added to the primary converter can take the command data. Experimental results show that the fibers can provide reliable up-link for data transmission at 200 kb/s from the secondary to the primary converter. Based on the delivery system, the secondary converter can control three auxiliary channels to provide additional information. These monitoring channels are used in a time-multiplexing mode to provide information about the operation temperature, voltage and current at the remote unit for monitoring the ECT. This preventive maintenance or built-in test can increase reliability by giving early warning for necessary maintenance request.展开更多

Based on the model, an ultra thin film can be used to enhance dielectric layer electric field and so increase vertical breakdown voltage for SOI devices because of its high silicon critical electric field, and with a dielectric layer thickness of 2 μm the vertical breakdown voltages reach 852 and 300V for the silicon film thicknesses of 0.1 and 5μm, respectively. In addition, a relation between dielectric layer thickness and silicon film thickness is obtained, indicating a minimum vertical breakdown voltage that should be avoided when an SOI device is designed. 2D simulated results and some experimental results are in good agreement with analytical results.

文摘Owing to the high specific capacity and high voltage,Ni-rich(LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2,LNCM811)cathode has been considered as one of the most promising candidate cathode materials for next generation lithium ion batteries,whereas severe capacity fading greatly hinders its practical application.Notably,the compatibility of Ni-rich materials with LiBF4-containing electrolyte has not yet been realized.Herein,1 M LiPF6-based electrolyte with introducing 2 M LiBF4 is proposed to dramatically improve the cyclic stability of high voltage LNCM811/Li half-cell.Addition of high concentrated LiBF4 improves the moisture stability of electrolyte,which hinders the generation of harmful by-product HF,resulting in improved interfacial stability of LNCM811.Lithium plating/stripping reaction of Li/Li symmetric cell confirms that the enhanced cyclic stability is ascribed to the improved interfacial stability of LNCM811 instead of lithium electrode.Morphology and composition characterization results reveal that LiBF4 participates in the CEI film-forming reaction,resulting in suppressed oxidation of electrolyte and interfacial structural destruction of LNCM811.
文摘Manganese dioxide (MnO2) was prepared using the ultrasonic method. Its electrochemical performance was evaluated as the cathode material for a high voltage hybrid capacitor. And the specific capacitance of the MnO2 electrode reached 240 F·g^-1. The new hybrid capacitor was constructed, combining A1/Al2O3 as the anode and MnO2 as the cathode with electrolyte for the aluminum electrolytic capacitor to solve the problem of low working voltage of a supercapacitor unit. The results showed that the hybrid capacitor had a high energy density and the ability of quick charging and discharging according to the electrochemical performance test. The capacitance was 84.4 μF, and the volume and mass energy densities were greatly improved compared to those of the traditional aluminum electrolytic capacitor of 47 μF. The analysis of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) showed that the hybrid capacitor had good impedance characteristics.

文摘In order to improve the drivability and energy efficiency of electric vehicle (EV), more and more batteries are connected in series with high voltage which makes it necessary to monitor the electric parameters of high voltage system (HVS) to ensure the high voltage safety. A high voltage safety management system is developed to solve this critical issue. Several key electric parameters including pre-charge, contact resistance, insulation resistance and remaining capacity are monitored and analyzed based on the presented equivalent models. An electronic unit called high voltage safety controller is developed. By the help of hardware-in-loop system, the equivalent models integrated in the high voltage safety controller are validated and the on-line electric parameters monitor strategy is discussed. The real vehicle experiment results indicate that the high voltage safety management system designed is suitable for EV application.

文摘Currently ether solvents have been regarded as the most compatible organic solvents with lithium metal in electrolytes of lithium batteries.However,ether solvents are unstable under high voltage (>4.0 V),and prone to side reactions with nickel-rich high-voltage cathode materials.In this work,a novel dual-solvent electrolyte in ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (DME) and butyronitrile (BN) mixed solvent was designed and fabricated for Li/Li Ni_(0.5)Mn_(0.3)Co_(0.2)O_(2)-based lithium metal batteries.When charged to high voltage4.3 V,the battery cycled in this optimal electrolyte can maintain the capacity at 133.7 m Ah g^(-1) with a retention of 88.84%after 150 cycles at 0.2 C and-10℃.During long-term cycling,the battery also exhibits excellent cycling performance with capacity maintained at about 112.0 m Ah g^(-1) after 500 cycles at 1C and-10℃.BN has strong oxidation resistance and high conductivity,which can inhibit the decomposition of ether solvents under high voltage and improve the low temperature performance of battery effectively.Additionally,the cyano (–C≡N) group in BN molecular has a strong coordination ability with the high-valent metal ions and can mask the active ions on the cathode,correspondingly reducing the corrosion of cathode material by the electrolyte.Moreover,cyano group can participate in the hydrolysis to remove trace amounts of water and acidic by-products such as HF in the electrolyte.Therefore,the boosting effect of butyronitrile for ether solvents can provide a promising strategy for enhancing the performance of high voltage lithium metal batteries for practical industrialization.

文摘The spinel LiNi_(0.5)Mn_(1.5)O_(4)(LNMO)has been attracted great attention as lithium ion cathode material due to its high voltage and large energy density.However,the practical application of LNMO is still limited by poor cycling stability.Herein,to improve the cycling stability of spinel LNMO,it was treated with anneal process at 900℃for 2 h after prepared by traditional solid-state method(LNMO-A).LNMO-A sample presented better electrochemical property especially under high rate,with capacity of 91.2 mAhg^(-1) after 1000 cycles under 10 C.Its superior electrochemical property was ascribed to the anneal process,resulting a stable crystal structure,indicated by XRD and Raman results of electrodes after 1000 cycles under 10 C and the longer solid-solution reaction,revealed by in-situ XRD.In addition,the optimized particle size,micro morphology and the larger BET area surface induced by the recrystallization in anneal process also contributes to its superior electrochemical property.What's more,the thin layer,which interacted LNMO-A particles with each other,induced by particles remelting in anneal process is also beneficial for its excellent electrochemical property.This study not only improved the electrochemical properties by anneal process,but also revealed the origins and mechanisms for its improvement.

文摘A novel voltage-withstand substrate with high-K(HK, k 〉 3.9, k is the relative permittivity) dielectric and low specific on-resistance(Ron,sp) bulk-silicon, high-voltage LDMOS(HKLR LDMOS)is proposed in this paper. The high-K dielectric and highly doped interface N+-layer are made in bulk silicon to reduce the surface field drift region. The high-K dielectric can fully assist in depleting the drift region to increase the drift doping concentration(Nd) and reshape the electric field distribution. The highly doped N+-layer under the high-K dielectric acts as a low resistance path to reduce the Ron,sp. The new device with the high breakdown voltage(BV), the low Ron,sp, and the excellent figure of merit(FOM = BV^2/Ron,sp) is obtained. The BV of HKLR LDMOS is 534 V, Ron,sp is 70.6 m?·cm^2, and FOM is 4.039 MW·cm^(-2).

文摘Very fast transient over-voltage (VFTO), induced by disconnector operations in gas- insulated switchgears, has become the limiting dielectric stress at ultra-high voltage levels. Much work has been done to investigate single-strike waveforms of VFTO. However, little study has been carried out investigating the repeated strike process, which would influence VFTO significantly. In this paper, we carried out 450 effective experiments in an ultra-high voltage test circuit, and conducted calculations through the Monte Carlo simulation method, to investigate the repeated strike process. Firstly, the mechanism of the repeated strike process is proposed, based on the ex- perimentai results. Afterwards, statistical breakdown characteristics of disconnectors are obtained and analyzed. Finally, simulations of the repeated strike process are conducted, which indicate that the dielectric strength recovery speed and polarity effect factor have a joint effect on VFTO. This study enhances the understanding of the nature of VFTO, and may help to optimize the disconnector designed to minimize VFTO.

文摘This paper describes a prototype power delivery system developed for high voltage electronic current transformer (ECT) that uses laser light to transfer power to and communicates with the primary converter. The design is based on optical-to-electrical power converters, solid-state diode lasers and optical fibers. Command signals are transmitted via the same up-fiber used to send power from secondary power supply to primary converter. The upward data transmission is completed during the brief interruption of power delivery without affecting steady power-supply. A simple comparator added to the primary converter can take the command data. Experimental results show that the fibers can provide reliable up-link for data transmission at 200 kb/s from the secondary to the primary converter. Based on the delivery system, the secondary converter can control three auxiliary channels to provide additional information. These monitoring channels are used in a time-multiplexing mode to provide information about the operation temperature, voltage and current at the remote unit for monitoring the ECT. This preventive maintenance or built-in test can increase reliability by giving early warning for necessary maintenance request.
文摘In order to improve hydrophobic characteristics which will affect the service performance of fast-growing poplar due to growing bacteria in the humid environment.In this study,a simple method was proposed to treat poplar via the high voltage electric field(HVEF)with copper as the electrode plate.Scanning electron microscope(SEM),Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),X-ray diffraction(XRD)and contact angle tester were adopted to evaluate the surface morphology,surface group of poplar,crystallinity and wettability under HVEF.It was found by SEM that a large number of copper particles were uniformly attached to the surface of poplar.In all three sections,the weight percentage of the Cu element was accounting for more than half.The diffraction peaks of copper-containing compounds appeared in the(XRD).FTIR analysis confirmed that the reaction between copper and poplar took place.The surface contact angle of three sections of poplar increased in the following order:cross section<radial section<tangential section(increased by 34°,45°and 53°,respectively).An environmentfriendly and efficient method of HVEF treating fast-growing wood with copper as the electrode plate can promote its outdoor application.
