基于改进雷达图的配电系统电能质量评估方法

本文针对配电系统电能质量综合评估存在的评估指标权重分配过于主观或客观的问题,提出一种基于改进雷达图法的配电系统电能质量评估方法。该方法利用最小偏差组合权重法计算各评估指标的最优组合权重。并在传统雷达图的基础上对各指标轴间夹角值的确定和特征向量的选取两方面做了进一步的改进。首先采用扇形区域取代原始的三角形区域,并利用最小偏差组合权重法计算各指标轴间夹角值。其次选择新的特征向量构造评估函数对配电系统电能质量进行综合评估。最后通过对某钢铁厂棒材变电站10kV配电系统电能质量进行综合评估,验证了该方法的可行性和合理性。较传统雷达图而言,改进雷达图法解决了传统雷达图法中各指标间信息共用以及评估结果不唯一的问题,使评估结果更加准确合理。     

Stabilizing temperature-capacitance dependence of (Sr,Pb, Bi)TiO3-Bi4Ti3O12 solutions for energy storage

(1-x)Sr_0.7Pb_0.15Bi_0.1TiO₃-xBi₄Ti₃O₁₂ ((1-x)SPBT-xBIT, x = 0-0.125) bulk ceramics were developed and calcined via the solid-state method, aimed at the application of pulsed power capacitors. The phase structures, temperature stability, hysteresis loop, and discharge properties were systematically investigated. Considering both the temperature stability and dielectric properties, 0.925SPBT-0.075BIT bulk ceramics with a capacitance variation satisfying the X7R specification were developed for pulsed power capacitors. The energy storage density was 0.252 J/cm³, and the ceramics showed high temperature stability at 80 kV/cm. The discharge current waveforms of the 0.925SPBT-0.075BIT ceramics were recorded. A high discharge power density of approximately 1.01 × 10⁸ W/kg with an 8 Ω load resistor and short discharge period of 84 ns were achieved at 50 kV/cm. The good temperature stability properties and high power density show that the 0.925SPBT-0.075BIT ceramics are well suited for pulsed power capacitors with a wide temperature range.     

Challenges and new methods for designing reliability experiments

Abstract

Engineers use reliability experiments to determine the factors that drive product reliability, build robust products, and predict reliability under use conditions. This article uses recent testing of a howitzer to illustrate the challenges in designing reliability experiments for complex, repairable systems. We review research in complex system reliability models, failure-time experiments, and experimental design principles. We highlight the need for reliability experiments that account for various intended uses and environments. We leverage lessons learned from current research and propose methods for designing an experiment for a complex, repairable system.     

组合轮径差对地铁车辆动力学性能的影响

为了研究各种轮径差组合形式对地铁车辆动力学性能的影响,基于车辆系统动力学和赫兹非线性接触理论,建立地铁动车非线性动力学模型,分析各种轮径差组合工况下地铁车辆的临界速度、平稳性、安全性和磨耗功率及其变化规律。结果表明:在多种轮径差组合工况下,轮径差增大会使地铁车辆的临界速度有较大幅度降低,会使地铁车辆的横向平稳性和磨耗功率明显增大;轮径差对地铁车辆的垂向平稳性、轮轴横向力、轮轨垂向力、脱轨系数和轮重减载率影响较小;通过左、右曲线时,轮径差对磨耗功率增幅的影响存在差异,但变化规律一致。     

Drag Power Loss Investigation in Cylindrical Roller Bearings Using CFD Approach

In high-speed rolling element bearings, the drag forces can be prominent and it is demonstrated in this investigation that the classical models may not be appropriate for correctly estimating this power loss contribution. A modification of the models is thus proposed, including the usual drag forces formulation relying upon the drag coefficient to be evaluated from a numerical computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach. A three-dimensional approach that considers both the rings and the cylinder ends seems the only adequate approach to be used because a two-dimensional approach predicts a drag coefficient value that is too low. When using the former computed drag coefficient for the evaluation of the total power losses, high values of oil volume fraction must be employed to recover the measured power losses.     

Hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of aluminum promoted by Ni–Li–B catalyst

In this study, the high activity Ni–Li–B catalysts were fabricated through wet chemical reduction method. Their morphological structures, crystallinity, surface area and composition were examined by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The aluminum-water reaction tests were explored in the range of temperatures from 35–75 °C. It was found that water could react with aluminum to generate hydrogen gas. The yield and hydrogen generation rate were significantly increased when all prepared catalysts were added into the reaction. The Ni–Li–B (X_LiCl = 0.1 g) catalyst exhibited the highest cumulative hydrogen volume of 201.3 ml with an average hydrogen production rate of 0.50 ml min⁻¹ at 55 °C. This phenomenon could be pointed to the emergence of the micro galvanic cell formed by the Ni–Li–B, Li/Ni–Li–B, Li and Al, which accelerated aluminum to rapidly react with water.     

Study of MW-scale biogas-fed SOFC-WGS-TSA-PEMFC hybrid power technology as distributed energy system: Thermodynamic,exergetic and thermo-economic evaluation

Advanced biogas power generation technology has been attracting attentions, which contributes to the waste disposal and the mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions. This work proposes and models a novel biogas-fed hybrid power generation system consisting of solid oxide fuel cell, water gas shift reaction, thermal swing adsorption and proton exchange membrane fuel cell (SOFC-WGS-TSA-PEMFC). The thermodynamic, exergetic, and thermo-economic analyses of this hybrid system for power generation were conducted to comprehensively evaluate its performance. It was found that the novel biogas-fed hybrid system has a gross energy conversion efficiency of 68.63% and exergy efficiency of 65.36%, indicating high efficiency for this kind of hybrid power technology. The market sensitivity analysis showed that the hybrid system also has a low sensitivity to market price fluctuation. Under the current subsidy level for the distributed biogas power plant, the levelized cost of energy can be lowered to 0.02942 $/kWh for a 1 MW scale system. Accordingly, the payback period and annual return on investment can reach 1.4 year and about 20%, respectively. These results reveal that the proposed hybrid system is promising and economically feasible as a distributed power plant, especially for the small power scale (no more than 2 MW).

Investigation on the mechanism of charge generation in organic heterojunctions: Analysis of I–V and C–V characteristics

The charge generation mechanism of organic heterojunction (OHJ) consisted of 1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylene-hexacarbonitrile (HAT-CN) and different hole transporting materials (HTMs) are studied systematically by current-voltage (I–V) and capacitance-voltage measurements. The analysis of I–V characteristics of the devices based on OHJs at forward and reverse voltages by comparing the thickness of HTM layers finds that a forward and reverse symmetrical I–V curve is observed at thin HTM layers and the forward current becomes larger than the reverse current with the increase of HTM thickness, fully illustrating the effectiveness of OHJ charge generation. Moreover, the I–V characteristics at different temperatures indicate that the efficient charge generation is originated from electron tunneling rather than diffusion. And the C–V and capacitance-frequency (C–F)characteristics further illustrate the highly efficient charge generation ability of OHJs so that the charge density is as high as 4.5 × 10¹⁷ cm⁻³, guaranteeing the high conductivity of OHJs, which is very beneficial to developing highly efficient OLEDs using OHJs as charge injector and generator.
