A numerical simulation of surface wave excitation in a rectangular planar-type plasma source

The principle of surface wave plasma discharge in a rectangular cavity is introduced simply based on surface plasmon polariton theory. The distribution of surface-wave electric field at the interface of the plasma-dielectric slab is investigated by using the three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method （3D-FDTD） with different slotantenna structures. And the experimental image of discharge with a novel slot antenna array and the simulation of the electric field with this slot antenna array are both displayed. Combined with the distribution of surface wave excitation and experimental results, the numerical simulation performed by using 3D-FDTD is shown to be a useful tool in the computer-aided antenna design for large area planar-type surface-wave plasma sources.

A Novel Structure of Slot-Antenna Array for Producing Large-Area Planar Surface-Wave Plasmas

The principle of surface wave plasma discharge in a rectangular cavity is introduced and the distribution of the electromagnetic field within a rectangular waveguide is analysed. A novel structure of a slot antenna array is presented. In comparison with the traditional slotantenna, it is shown that the designed slot antenna array can excite effectively the surface wave coupling into the chamber, and generate a stable large-area high-density plasma. These results are useful for exploring the optimized design of the slot-antenna for surface wave plasmas.

Influence of Plasma Temperature on the Concentration of NO Produced by Pulsed Arc Discharge

This study conducted experiments on producing inhaled medical nitric oxide （iNO） by pulsed arc discharge in dry and clean air under different discharge current. The concentration of NO and NO2 produced by air discharge, as well as the change of the ratio of NO2/NO under different discharge current were investigated. Through the analysis of plasma emission spectrum, the relationship between discharge current and arc plasma temperature was studied. The results indicate that, as discharge current increases, the arc plasma temperature increases, which then leads to the increase of NO concentration, the decrease of NO2 concentration, and the rapid decrease of the ratio of NO2/NO. When the plasma temperature is 9000 K, the ratio of NO2/NO is approximately 60%, while when the plasma temperature varies between 10550 K and 11300 K, the NO2/NO ratio is within the range of 4.2% to 4.6%.

Analysis of sensitivity and errors in Maglev vibration test system

In order to improve work performance of M aglev vibration test systems,the relationships of operating parameters between different components and system were researched. The working principle of photoelectric displacement sensor was analyzed. The relationship between displacement of transducer and the infrared light area received by sensor was given. The method of expanding the dynamic range of vibrator was proposed,which makes dynamic range of Maglev vibrator doubled. By increasing the amplification of the amplifier,the sensitive photoelectric displacement sensor can be maintained. Two modes of operation of the controller were analyzed. Bilateral work of vibration test system designed can further improve the stability of the system.An object vibration was measured by Maglev vibration test system designed when different vibration exciter frequencies were loaded. Experiments showthat the output frequency measured by Maglev vibration test system and loaded are the same. Finally,the errors of test system were analyzed. These errors of vibration test system designed can meet the requirements of application. The results laid the foundation for the practical application of magnetic levitation vibration test system.

Vibration Measurement of Pedestrian Bridge Using Double Magnetic Suspension Vibrator Based on Wavelet Analysis

Aiming at the problem of pedestrian bridge vibration measurement,a vibration measurement system of pedestrian bridge with dual magnetic suspension vibrator structure was designed according to absolute vibration measurement principle. The relationship between the magnetic repulsion force of vibrator and its displacement was obtained by the experimental method and the least square fitting method. The vibration equations of two magnetic suspension vibrators were deduced respectively,and the measurement sensitivity of the system was deduced. The amplitude-frequency characteristic of the system was studied. A simulation model of vibrator measurement system with double magnetic suspension vibrator was established. The analysis shows that the sensitivity of the vibration measurement system with double magnetic suspension vibrator is higher than that with single magnetic suspension vibrator. The four vibration waveforms were measured,that is,no one passes through a pedestrian bridge,there are cars running under the pedestrian bridge,single pedestrian passes through the pedestrian bridge and multiple pedestrians pass through the pedestrian bridge. The multi-scale one-dimensional wavelet decomposition function was used to analyze the vibration signals. The vibration characteristics were obtained using one dimension wavelet decomposition function under four different conditions. Finally,the vibration waveforms of four cases were reconstructed. The measured results show that the vibration measurement system of pedestrian bridge with double magnetic suspension vibrator structure has high measurement sensitivity. The design has a certain value to monitor a pedestrian bridge.

Study on Electromagnetic Environment of AC-DC Hybrid Transmission Lines

With the expansion of electricity demand,transmission corridors are becoming scarce.AC and DC circuits running parallel to each other and sharing the same right-of-way or even the same tower become a possible option.Due to the existence of the adjacent line,space electromagnetic field and corona of another line may be changed.Different characteristics of two line types make the electromagnetic field of transmission corridors become more complex.Hybrid line is viewed as a whole.The calculation contains surface gradient,ground level electric field,radio interference and audible noise.Interaction between the two line types is considered.The calculation results show that the interaction is mainly concentrated in the inner corridor.In the role of DC electric field,AC electric field is no longer symmetrical and ground level electric field is significantly enhanced.Under the negative DC voltage,the positive corona of the waveform is significantly strengthened,and it is inhibited under the positive DC voltage.It is better to erect the positive DC line near AC line.

Theoretical investigation of structural and optical properties of semi-fluorinated bilayer graphene

We have studied the structural and optical properties of semi-fluorinated bilayer graphene using density functional theory. When the interlayer distance is 1.62A, the two graphene layers in AA stacking can form strong chemical bonds. Under an in-plane stress of 6.8 GPa, this semi-fluorinated bilayer graphene becomes the energy minimum. Our calculations indicate that the semi-fluorinated bilayer graphene with the AA stacking sequence and rectangular fluorinated configuration is a nonmagnetic semiconductor （direct gap of 3.46 eV）. The electronic behavior at the vicinity of the Fermi level is mainly contributed by the p electrons of carbon atoms forming C=C double bonds. We compare the optical properties of the semi- fluorinated bilayer graphene with those of bilayer graphene stacked in the AA sequence and find that the semi-fluorinated bilayer graphene is anisotropic for the polarization vector on the basal plane of graphene and a red shift occurs in the [010] polarization, which makes the peak at the low-frequency region located within visible light. This investigation is useful to design polarization-dependence optoelectronic devices.

The Effect of the Semiconductive Screen on Space Charge Suppression in Cross-Linked Polyethylene

The space charge distributions of cross-linked polyethylene （XLPE） with Borouge＇s BorlinkTM semiconductive screen type LE0550 and LE0595 from a pulsed electro-acoustic method are obtained. The contact interface morphology at the semiconductive screen and the structure of XLPE near the interface are characterized. The dielectric spectrum and the conductivity current of XLPE with the different semiconduetive electrodes are com- pared. The semiconduetive screen changes the structure and the dielectric characteristic of XLPE near the contact interface, which may be the main reason for space charge suppression in XLPE with Borouge＇s type LEO550 semiconduetive screen.

交直流混合输电线路空间电场分析(英文)

As the transmission line corridors become more and more rare in China,it is now inevitable for people to construct HVAC-HVDC hybrid transmission lines.The research on the electric field around the transmission lines plays an important role in evaluating the electromagnetic environment nearby.However,few existing research now considered the mutual effect of HVAC-HVDC hybrid transmission lines.Thus,this research designed a program based on windows,which calculated the surface voltage gradient on the transmission lines and the electric field at ground level respectively.This research calculated the surface voltage gradient on the transmission lines by applying the improved method of successive images.For the electric field at ground level under AC transmission line,simulation charge method is used,while for the electric field at the ground level under DC transmission lines,deutsch assumption method is used.Comparing the results generated by the calculation with those in published literature,the program is reliable.Taking 500 kV transmission lines as an example,when considering the mutual effect of the HVAC-HVDC lines,the amplitude of the surface voltage gradient will increase by about 10%and the amplitude of the electric field at ground level will increase by about 8%,making the mutual effect of the AC and DC lines unneglectable. Larger part of the electric field at ground level under hybrid lines is produced by the DC line.Thus,in order to control the electric field at ground level under hybrid lines,it should pay more attention on that produced by the DC line.
