Design for a high power-density Astron reactor

A liquid lithium blanket surrounding the plasma volume is described. The liquid lithium flows along magnetic flux tubes at a high speed. There is no vacuum wall between the blanket and the plasma. The E-layer of relativistic particles within which the plasma is confined serves as a vacuum wall protecting the plasma from the lithium vapor, which is continuously produced at the surface of the blanket, by ionizing the lithium atoms and ejecting the same along open magnetic lines. The heat load at the surface of the blanket generated by 14 MeV neutrons can be several hundred MW per square meter.Work performed under the auspices of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.Deceased September 24, 1972.     

基于拓扑信息加速马尔科夫毯学习

目标变量的马尔科夫毯（MB）是用于预测其状态的最优特征子集。提出一种新的约束学习类MB推导算法FSMB,它遵循后向选择的搜索策略,并依赖条件独立（CI）测试删除任意结点对之间的伪连接。与传统约束学习类算法不同,FSMB能从已执行的CI测试推导出不同结点扮演d 分割（d separation）结点的优先等级;而后基于该信息在未来优先执行条件集中包含高优先级结点的CI测试,从而更快速地判断并删除伪连接边。该策略可帮助快速缩小搜索空间,从而大大提升学习效率。基于仿真网络的实验研究显示,FSMB在计算效率上较经典的PCMB和IPC MB有显著的提升,而学习效果相当;在面对较大网络结构时（比如100和200个结点）,甚至比公认最快速的IAMB还节省近40%的计算量,但学习效果要远优于IAMB。基于16个UCI数据集和4个经典的分类模型的实验显示,基于FSMB输出的特征集合所训练模型的分类准确率普遍接近或高于基于原有特征全集训练所得模型。因此,FSMB是快速且有效的MB推导算法。     

医用充气式保温毯控制系统设计及仿真

针对医用充气式保温毯的温度控制要求,提出其温度控制闭环系统的结构,系统的硬件电路主要由温度传感器、单片机及RS232通讯模块等组成。采用PWM方法控制晶闸管导通时间的方式来改变加热丝的加热时间、采用自适应模糊PID控制方法实现保温毯气囊出气温度的自动调节与控制。将整个控制过程分为两个阶段:自动调节初始阶段,加热丝加热的占空比为100%;当温度达到一定值后转入自适应模糊PID控制阶段,由相应控制量来决定加热丝加热的占空比,实现气体温度的调节。通过MATLAB仿真分析表明,所采用的自适应模糊PID控制方法优于常规的PID控制,具有良好的适应性和鲁棒性,可明显提高系统的稳态精度。

Options and methods for instrumentation of Test Blanket Systems for experiment control and scientific mission

Europe is currently developing two reference breeder blankets concepts for DEMO reactor specifications that will be tested in ITER under the form of Test Blanket Modules (TBMs): the Helium-Cooled Lithium-Lead (HCLL) concept which uses the eutectic Pb-16Li as both breeder and neutron multiplier; the Helium-Cooled Pebble-Bed (HCPB) concept which features lithiated ceramic pebbles as breeder and beryllium pebbles as neutron multiplier. Each TBM is associated with several sub-systems required for their operation; together they form the Test Blanket System (TBS). This paper presents the state of HCLL and HCPB TBS instrumentation design. The discussion is based on the systems functional analysis, from which three main categories of instrumentation are defined: those relevant to safety functions; those relevant to interlock functions; those designed for the control and scientific exploitation of the devices based on the TBM program objectives.     

Development of the breeding blanket and shield model for the fusion power reactors system SYCOMORE

SYCOMORE, a fusion reactor system code based on a modular approach is under development at CEA. Within this framework, this paper describes the relevant sub-modules which have been implemented to model the main outputs of the breeding blanket and shield block of the system code: tritium breeding ratio, peak energy deposition in toroidal field coils, reactor layout and power deposition, blanket pressure drops and materials inventory.Blanket and shield requirements are calculated by several sub-modules: the blanket assembly and layout sub-module, the neutronic sub-module, the blanket design sub-module (thermal hydraulic and thermo-mechanic pre-design tool). A power flow module has also been developed which is directly linked to the blanket thermo-dynamic performances, which is not described in this paper.For the blanket assembly and layout and the blanket module design sub-modules, explicit analytic models have been developed and implemented; for the neutronic sub-module neural networks that replicate the results of appropriate simplified 1D and 2D neutronic simulations have been built. Presently, relevant model for the Helium Cooled Lithium Lead is available.Sub-modules have been built in a way that they can run separately or coupled into the breeding blanket and shield module in order to be integrated in SYCOMORE.In the paper, the objective and main input/output parameters of each sub-module are reported and relevant models discussed. The application to previous studied reactor models (PPCS model AB, DEMO-HCLL 2006–2007 studies) is also presented.     

Effects of an electric blanket on sleep stages and body temperature in young men

The aim of this study was to investigate any effects of electric blanket on sleep stages and body temperature. Nine male subjects slept under two conditions: using the electric blanket (HB); and not using the electric blanket (C). The ambient condition was controlled at 3°C relative humidity 50?–?80%. Electroencephalography, electrooculography (EOG) and electromyography, rectal temperature, skin temperature and microclimate temperature and humidity were recorded continuously through the night. Body weight was measured before and after sleep. The amount of stage 1 and number of stage 1 and rapid eye movement sleep decreased in HB compared to C. No significant difference was observed in other sleep stages. Rectal temperature was higher in HB compared to C. The thigh, leg and foot skin temperature was higher in HB than C. The microclimate temperature of the foot area was higher in HB compared to C. No significant difference was observed in whole body sweat loss between the conditions. These results suggest that use of an electric blanket under low ambient temperature may decrease cold stress to support sleep stability and thermoregulation during sleep.
