Experimental data and approximate estimation for dissociation time of hydrate plugs

New experimental data coupled with a numerical model and an approximate solution are proposed to predict dissociation time of hydrate plugs in oil sub-sea pipelines. The experimental hydrate plugs are dissociated by the method of symmetric depressurisation, both in a specially designed apparatus and a classical batch reactor. The agreement between the estimation of the model and the experimental data and the simplicity of the approximate equation presents an advantage in estimating the time of hydrate plug dissociation in pipelines.     

Transformations for nonideal uniform circular arrays operating in correlated signal environments

The Davies transformation is a method to transform the steering vector of a uniform circular array (UCA) to one with Vandermonde form. As such, it allows techniques such as spatial smoothing for direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation in a correlated signal environment, developed originally for uniform linear arrays, to be applied to UCAs. However, the Davies transformation can be highly sensitive to perturbations of the underlying array model. This paper presents a method for deriving a more robust transformation using optimization techniques. The effectiveness of the method is illustrated through a number of DOA estimation examples.     

Effects of solid retention time on the performance of submerged anoxic/oxic membrane bioreactor.

In this study, four similar bench-scale submerged Anoxic/Oxic Membrane Bioreactors (MBR) were used simultaneously to investigate the effects of solids retention time (SRT) on organic and nitrogen removal in MBR for treating domestic wastewater. COD removal efficiencies in all reactors were consistently above 94% under steady state conditions. Complete conversion of NH(4+)-N to NO(3-)-N was readily achieved over a feed NH(4+)-N concentration range of 30 to 50 mg/L. It was also observed that SRT did not significantly affect the nitrification in the MBR systems investigated. The average denitrification efficiencies for the 3, 5, 10 and 20 days SRT operations were 43.9, 32.6, 47.5 and 66.5%, respectively. In general, the average effluent nitrogen concentrations, which were mainly nitrate, were about 22.2, 27.6, 21.7 and 13.9 mg/L for the 3, 5, 10 and 20 days SRT systems, respectively. The rate of membrane fouling at 3 days SRT operation was more rapid than that observed at 5 days SRT. No fouling was noted in the 10 days and 20 days SRT systems during the entire period of study.     

利津地区深层沙三、沙四段油藏测试评价

利用测试资料，将利津地区深层沙三、沙四段油藏分为5种油藏类型：①高压、低-极低渗、导数曲线后期上翘、地层存在非均质性的油藏；②高压、低渗、无污染、双孔介质的油藏；③高压、低-中渗、无-轻微污染的复合油藏；④常-高压、低渗、有污染的油藏；⑤常-高压、极低渗、无污染、干层的油藏。最后对利津地区深层沙三、沙四段各种类型油藏进行了评价，认为利津地区深层沙三、沙四段自然产能较低，一般需要进行改造措施来提高渗透性，提高产能。     

Dual-Mode Microstrip Open-Loop Resonators and Filters

A miniature dual-mode microstrip open-loop resonator is proposed. Distinct characteristics of this new type of dual-mode resonator are investigated using full-wave electromagnetic simulations. It is shown that the two operating modes, i.e., the even and odd modes, within a single dual-mode resonator of this type do not couple. It is also found that there is a finite-frequency transmission zero inherently associated with the even mode. Two two-pole filters using this type of dual-mode resonator are demonstrated with opposite asymmetric responses, which result from different locations of the transmission zero. Higher order filters of this type are also investigated. Both simulated and measured results are presented.

The oxidation resistance and constitution of Y9Co7 and nearly-relatedcompounds

The ratio of the thermal oxidation parameter to the decomposition point (T _p/T _m) is of the order of 0 85 for Y₉Co₇, indicating a high degree of chemical binding. The persistence of high values of this ratio has been investigated with respect to (a) other compounds in the Y-Co system, (b) replacement of cobalt in Y₉Co₇ by other d-e!ements, and (c) replacement of yttrium by other rare-earth elements. High ratios are found for (a) Y-Co compounds where Y/Co > 0.5, (b) Y-3d compounds with cobalt and niche! only, end (c) RE-Co compounds generally. However, there are differences in level of the ratio amongst the rare-earth compounds, from which it is inferred that the highest values coincide with full electron shells, that is, without participation of 4f electrons. Additional work is described on an effect of preparation arc-melting current 0n theT _p value for Y₉Co₇, and on compounds of the same pattern where both components are changed.
