Protecting the infrastructure with thermal spray coatings—Technical note

Thermal sprayed aluminum and zinc provide long-term (> 20 years to first maintenance) corrosion control coatings. However, this application is usually more expensive than painting or galvanizing if thermal spraying (metallizing) is not integrated into the design and fabrication phases of new construction and repair projects. Aluminum and zinc metallized coatings are tough enough to withstand fabrication, transportation, and assembly operations. The improved capabilities and productivity of metallizing equipment for aluminum and zinc spraying are a major factor in their current cost competitiveness. The net result is that the cost difference between metallizing, paint, and galvanizing is getting closer every day. Even though the initial application cost of metallizing may be higher, the life cycle cost (LCC) and average equivalent annual costs (AEAC) are lower than paint coating systems. Metallizing LCCs, when properly engineered into the construction schedule, are equal to or less than paint coating LCCs. This article summarizes some metallizing considerations for installing improved corrosion control coating systems in new construction and in maintenance and repair of infrastructure.

A case study: California utilities and the progressive business model

Concentration on the new technological and funding requirements for decarbonizing utilities has obfuscated the reality that there is a new utility business model. The Progressive Business Model is legislation and regulatory actions taken to address climate change. Lacking a feedback loop for policy correction, it has raised utility rates, coopted utility management’s operational and investment independence, and sacrificed ratepayer safety and reliability.     

基于可行空间并行的安全约束最优潮流

为了提高电网控制决策的实时性,文中将计及预想故障安全约束的经济性优化问题分解为以发电成本最小为目标的基态最优潮流主问题和预想故障安全校核子问题,并提出一种基于可调空间切片并行的分解协调算法进行求解,以避免交替迭代。首先,按不同比例对可调空间进行切片形成多个切片方案,并基于并行计算平台采用原始-对偶内点法对各切片方案进行基态最优潮流主问题求解;然后,对各优化后方式进行预想故障并行安全校核;接着从通过安全校核的切片方案中挑选出发电成本最小的方案;最后,以贵州省某市电网为算例分析验证了所提方法的有效性。     

混合材对水泥浆体泌水性能的研究

通过调整水泥中钢渣粉、粉煤灰和石灰石粉的含量,检测水泥浆体泌水速率,研究了多种混合材对水泥的泌水性能的影响,结果表明：建立的水泥浆体泌水检测方法可以表征水泥的泌水性能;5%～6%的钢渣粉的加入促进了水泥整体的保水效果,泌水速率和累积泌水率较现行水泥配比和中联水泥的低,但水泥成本上升 2.13元/t和2.89元/t;粉煤灰因其密度低,且多为球状形貌,不利于水泥泌水性能;2%石灰石粉的加入,可降低水泥的泌水率和累积泌水率,其性能曲线与中联水泥的相近,水泥成本降低0.96元/t。
