In this paper, experiment is carried out in hilly terrain pipelines. Three flow patterns of stratified flow, slug flow and stratified entrained flow are observed. The process of gas purging accumulated liquid is divided into four stages, namely liquid accumulation, liquid rising, continuous outflow and tail outflow. At the same time, the flow pattern maps of each stage are drawn. The pressure drop signal is analyzed in time domain and frequency domain, and the contour map of pressure drop distribution is drawn. It is found that the ratio of range to average value can well distinguish the occurrence range of each flow pattern.Based on visualization, the transition process of slug flow to stratified flow and stratified entrained flow is studied, and the transition boundary prediction model is established. An image processing method is proposed to convert the image signal into a similarity curve, and PSD analysis is performed to calculate the slug frequency. The normal distribution is used to fit the slug frequency, and the predicted correlation is in good agreement with the experimental data.展开更多

文摘The 6G network architecture introduces the paradigm of Trust+Security,representing a shift in network protection strategies from external defense mechanisms to endogenous security enforcement.While ZTNs(zerotrust networks)have demonstrated significant advancements in constructing trust-centric frameworks,most existing ZTN implementations lack comprehensive integration of security deployment and traffic monitoring capabilities.Furthermore,current ZTN designs generally do not facilitate dynamic assessment of user reputation.To address these limitations,this study proposes a DPZTN(Data-plane-based Zero Trust Network).DPZTN framework extends traditional ZTN models by incorporating security mechanisms directly into the data plane.Additionally,blockchain infrastructure is used to enable decentralized identity authentication and distributed access control.A pivotal element within the proposed framework is ZTNE(Zero-Trust Network Element),which executes access control policies and performs real-time user traffic inspection.To enable dynamic and fine-grained evaluation of user trustworthiness,this study introduces BBEA(Bayesian-based Behavior Evaluation Algorithm).BBEA provides a framework for continuous user behavior analysis,supporting adaptive privilege management and behavior-informed access control.Experimental results demonstrate that ZTNE combined with BBEA,can effectively respond to both individual and mixed attack types by promptly adjusting user behavior scores and dynamically modifying access privileges based on initial privilege levels.Under conditions supporting up to 10,000 concurrent users,the control system maintains approximately 65%CPU usage and less than 60%memory usage,with average user authentication latency around 1 s and access control latency close to 1 s.
