The process starts by collecting low-cost sheep fleece from farms and processed via a production line, including scouring, plucking, carding, thermal bonding, and packing. The design process involves determining an optimal location, infrastructure, staffing, machinery, environmental impact, and utilities. A final economic analysis is undertaken to estimate the product’s cost, selling price, and break-even point based on the anticipated capital and operational costs. The plant is intended to process 6778 tons of sheep wool annually. The study suggests that Mafraq Industrial City is a perfect location for the plant, and purchasing land and structures is the optimal option. The projected capital cost is 1,416,679 USD, while the anticipated operational costs amount to 3,206,275 USD. Insulation material production is estimated to be 114,756 m3 annually. The material may be manufactured into 1 m wide, 0.05 m thick sheets for 2.02 USD per square meter. Thus, for a 10-year plant, a 2.47 USD/m2 selling price breaks even in one year.展开更多

A compound multi-layer insulations structure which composed of inner carbon fibrous materials and outer alternately arranged alumina fibrous materials and high reflectivity foils is proposed for use in high temperature cylinder thermal protection systems. A coupled conductive and radiation governing equations is presented for heat transfer analysis of the structure. The finite volume method and the discrete ordinate method are used to solve the goveming equations. The optimization structure of the compound multi-layer insulations is investigated by considering the pressure of the gas, the density of the carbon fibrous materials, the density of the alumina fibrous materials, the number of reflective foil layers and the emissivity of reflective foils. The results show that the compound structure has the best thermal insulation performance when the pressure of the gas is below 0.01 kPa, the density of carbon fibrous materials is 180 kg m^-3, the density of alumina fibrous materials is 256 kg m^-3 and the number of reflective foil layers is 39. In addition, the thermal insulation performance is much better when the emissivity of reflective foils is lower.展开更多

文摘At present,the emerging solid-phase friction-based additive manufacturing technology,including friction rolling additive man-ufacturing(FRAM),can only manufacture simple single-pass components.In this study,multi-layer multi-pass FRAM-deposited alumin-um alloy samples were successfully prepared using a non-shoulder tool head.The material flow behavior and microstructure of the over-lapped zone between adjacent layers and passes during multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition were studied using the hybrid 6061 and 5052 aluminum alloys.The results showed that a mechanical interlocking structure was formed between the adjacent layers and the adja-cent passes in the overlapped center area.Repeated friction and rolling of the tool head led to different degrees of lateral flow and plastic deformation of the materials in the overlapped zone,which made the recrystallization degree in the left and right edge zones of the over-lapped zone the highest,followed by the overlapped center zone and the non-overlapped zone.The tensile strength of the overlapped zone exceeded 90%of that of the single-pass deposition sample.It is proved that although there are uneven grooves on the surface of the over-lapping area during multi-layer and multi-pass deposition,they can be filled by the flow of materials during the deposition of the next lay-er,thus ensuring the dense microstructure and excellent mechanical properties of the overlapping area.The multi-layer multi-pass FRAM deposition overcomes the limitation of deposition width and lays the foundation for the future deposition of large-scale high-performance components.

文摘Thermally conductive papers with electrical insulation and mechanical robustness are essential for efficient thermal management in modern electronics.In this study,we introduced a metal ion-assisted interfacial crosslinking strategy to strengthen sugarfunctionalized graphene fluoride(SGF)and cellulose nanofibers(CNF)by hydrogen bonding and metal ion crosslinking that leads to simultaneous enhancements in thermal conductivity and mechanical properties.The facile sugarassisted ball-milling exfoliation method was developed to achieve the exfoliation of graphite fluoride and hydroxyl group functionalization on the surface of graphene fluoride.Thanks to the good dispersibility of the SGF sheets in water,the flexible SGF/CNF composite papers with hydrogen bonding were prepared via vacuum-assisted filtration.We introduced hydrogen bonding and metal ion crosslinking into SGF/CNF papers to obtain densely packed composite papers.Ca^(2+)or Al^(3+)ion-crosslinked SGF/CNF papers exhibited superior thermal and mechanical properties owing to hydrogen bonding and metal ion crosslinking.SGF/CNF-Ca^(2+)and SGF/CNF-Al^(3+)papers at 50 wt%of SGF yield in-plane thermal conductivities of 72.93 and 75.02 W m^(-1) K^(-1),and tensile strengths of 121.5 and 135.7 MPa,respectively.A thermal percolation value was observed at 12.6 vol%of SGF filler content.In addition,the SGF/CNF papers exhibited electrical insulation properties.These remarkable characteristics of the metal ion-crosslinked SGF/CNF papers are attributed to the densely packed structures caused by the strong interfacial interactions from hydrogen bonding as well as metal ion-crosslinking that could promote phonon transport.High-performance metal ion-crosslinked SGF/CNF papers with these fascinating advantages offer great potential for the thermal management of flexible electronics.
文摘This applied research seeks to explore feasible plant design for manufacturing insulation materials for construction projects using waste sheep fleece to address environmental issues related to wasted sheep wool and enhance the gross national product. The process starts by collecting low-cost sheep fleece from farms and processed via a production line, including scouring, plucking, carding, thermal bonding, and packing. The design process involves determining an optimal location, infrastructure, staffing, machinery, environmental impact, and utilities. A final economic analysis is undertaken to estimate the product’s cost, selling price, and break-even point based on the anticipated capital and operational costs. The plant is intended to process 6778 tons of sheep wool annually. The study suggests that Mafraq Industrial City is a perfect location for the plant, and purchasing land and structures is the optimal option. The projected capital cost is 1,416,679 USD, while the anticipated operational costs amount to 3,206,275 USD. Insulation material production is estimated to be 114,756 m3 annually. The material may be manufactured into 1 m wide, 0.05 m thick sheets for 2.02 USD per square meter. Thus, for a 10-year plant, a 2.47 USD/m2 selling price breaks even in one year.

文摘As the application scenarios of aerogels expand,higher requirements are put forward for the materials used to prepare aerogels.Due to the unique chemical structure,polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)has excellent properties such as high-temperature resistance,hydrophobicity,and chemical stability.However,the PTFE aerogels are difficult to be molded due to the weak interaction between resin particles.In this work,poly(ethylene oxide)(PEO)was selected as the carrier to assist the PTFE aerogels molding.The pure PTFE aerogels were prepared by homogeneously mixing PTFE aqueous dispersion and PEO,freeze-drying,and high-temperature sintering.When the mass fraction of PTFE and PEO were appropriate,the porosity of PTFE aerogels exceeded 90%and had a hierarchical honeycomb structure.Results showed that the PTFE aerogels not only had excellent hydrophobicity but also possessed superior acoustic insulation,mechanical strength,thermal insulation,and heat resistance properties.Specifically,the water contact angle is about 140°.The noise reduction coefficient is 0.34 and the average sound absorption coefficient is greater than 88%in the frequency range of 2000-6400 Hz.Meanwhile,the thermal conductivity in the air is about 0.045 W/(m·K),and the initial thermal decomposition temperature is 450℃.More importantly,the PTFE aerogels had excellent temperature and corrosion resistance.Even after extremely thermal and chemical treatment,they remained unchanged porous structure as well as acoustic and thermal insulation properties,which exhibits great potential for application in many harsh environments.

文摘Hygroscopic hydrogel is a promising evaporativecooling material for high-power passive daytime cooling with water self-regeneration.However,undesired solar and environmental heating makes it a challenge to maintain sub-ambient daytime cooling.While different strategies have been developed to mitigate heat gains,they inevitably sacrifice the evaporation and water regeneration due to highly coupled thermal and vapor transport.Here,an anisotropic synergistically performed insulation-radiation-evaporation(ASPIRE)cooler is developed by leveraging a dual-alignment structure both internal and external to the hydrogel for coordinated thermal and water transport.The ASPIRE cooler achieves an impressive average sub-ambient cooling temperature of~8.2℃ and a remarkable peak cooling power of 311 W m^(-2)under direct sunlight.Further examining the cooling mechanism reveals that the ASPIRE cooler reduces the solar and environmental heat gains without comprising the evaporation.Moreover,self-sustained multi-day cooling is possible with water self-regeneration at night under both clear and cloudy days.The synergistic design provides new insights toward high-power,sustainable,and all-weather passive cooling applications.

文摘The growing incidence of cyberattacks necessitates a robust and effective Intrusion Detection Systems(IDS)for enhanced network security.While conventional IDSs can be unsuitable for detecting different and emerging attacks,there is a demand for better techniques to improve detection reliability.This study introduces a new method,the Deep Adaptive Multi-Layer Attention Network(DAMLAN),to boost the result of intrusion detection on network data.Due to its multi-scale attention mechanisms and graph features,DAMLAN aims to address both known and unknown intrusions.The real-world NSL-KDD dataset,a popular choice among IDS researchers,is used to assess the proposed model.There are 67,343 normal samples and 58,630 intrusion attacks in the training set,12,833 normal samples,and 9711 intrusion attacks in the test set.Thus,the proposed DAMLAN method is more effective than the standard models due to the consideration of patterns by the attention layers.The experimental performance of the proposed model demonstrates that it achieves 99.26%training accuracy and 90.68%testing accuracy,with precision reaching 98.54%on the training set and 96.64%on the testing set.The recall and F1 scores again support the model with training set values of 99.90%and 99.21%and testing set values of 86.65%and 91.37%.These results provide a strong basis for the claims made regarding the model’s potential to identify intrusion attacks and affirm its relatively strong overall performance,irrespective of type.Future work would employ more attempts to extend the scalability and applicability of DAMLAN for real-time use in intrusion detection systems.

文摘Due to excellent thermal insulation performance at room temperature and ultralow density,silica aero-gels are candidates for thermal insulation.However,at high temperatures,the thermal insulation prop-erty of silica aerogels decreased greatly caused by transparency to heat radiation.Opacifiers introduced into silica sol can block heat radiation yet destroy the uniformity of aerogels.Herein,we designed and prepared a silica aerogel composite with oriented and layered silica fibers(SFs),SiC nanowires(SiC_(NWs)),and silica aerogels,which were prepared by papermaking,chemical vapor infiltration(CVI),and sol-gel respectively.Firstly,oriented and layered SFs made still air a wall to block heat transfer by the solid phase.Secondly,SiC_(NWs) were grown in situ on the surface of SFs evenly to weave into the network,and the network reduced the gaseous thermal conductivity by dividing cracks in SFs/SiC_(NWs)/SA.Thirdly,SiC_(NWs) weakened the heat transfer by radiation at high temperatures.Therefore,SFs/SiC_(NWs)/SA presented remarkable thermal insulation(0.017 W(m K)^(-1) at 25℃,0.0287 W(m K)^(-1) at 500℃,and 0.094 W(m K)^(-1) at 1000℃).Besides,SFs/SiC_(NWs)/SA exhibited remarkable thermal stability(no size transform after being heat treated at 1000℃ for 1800 s)and tensile strength(0.75 MPa).These integrated properties made SFs/SiC_(NWs)/SA a promising candidate for highly efficient thermal insulators.

文摘This study focuses on the electrical properties and microstructure of polypropylene(PP)-based blends used for cable insulation in nuclear power plants(NPPs).The PP-based blend,comprising isotactic PP and propylene-based elastomer(PBE)at concentrations ranging from 0 to 50 wt%,underwent a melt blending process and subsequent cobalt-60 gamma-ray irradiation with doses ranging from 0 to 250 kGy.Electrical conductivity,trap distribution,and alternating(AC)breakdown strength were chosen to assess the insulation performance.These results indicate that the addition of PBE significantly improves the electrical properties of PP under irradiation.For PP,the electrical conductivity increased with irradiation,whereas the trap depth and breakdown strength decreased sharply.Conversely,for the blend,these changes initially exhibit opposite trends.When the irradiation was increased to 250 kGy,the AC breakdown strength of the blend improved by more than 21%compared to that of PP.The physical and chemical structures of the samples were investigated to explore the improvement mechanisms.The results offer insights into the design of new cable-insulation materials suitable for NPPs.

文摘Poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF)foam has received widespread attention due to its high strength,and excellent combination of flame-retardancy,antibacterial performance,and chemical stability.However,the foaming ability of conventional PvDF is severely limited by its rapid crystallization kinetics and poor melt strength.Although ultra-high molecular weight PVDF(H-PVDF)theoretically offers prolonged melt elasticity favorable for foaming,the extremely high melt viscosity poses substantial processing challenges,and its foaming behavior has remained largely unexplored.To address these issues,this study proposes a novel fabrication strategy combining solvent casting with microcellular foaming to prepare H-PVDF foams.Dynamic mechanical analysis and differential scanning calorimetry reveal that extensive chain entanglements in H-PVDF impose constraints on crystallization and significantly enhance melt strength.By tuning the processing parameters,the distinctive foaming be-havior of H-PVDF under various conditions is systematically elucidated.Remarkably,a record-high expansion ratio of 55.6-fold is achieved,ac-companied by a highly uniform and fine cellular structure.The resulting H-PVDF foams exhibit a low thermal conductivity of 31.8 mW·m^(-1).K^(-1),while retaining excellent compressive strength,flame-retardancy,and hydrophobicity.These outstanding properties highlight the great potential of H-PVDF foams as the thermal insulation materials for applications in aerospace,energy infrastructure,and other extreme environments.

文摘This study proposes a general imperfect thermal contact model to predict the thermal contact resistance at the interface among multi-layered composite structures.Based on the Green-Lindsay(GL)thermoelastic theory,semi analytical solutions of temperature increment and displacement of multi-layered composite structures are obtained by using the Laplace transform method,upon which the effects of thermal resistance coefficient,partition coefficient,thermal conductivity ratio and heat capacity ratio on the responses are studied.The results show that the generalized imperfect thermal contact model can realistically describe the imperfect thermal contact problem.Accordingly,it may degenerate into other thermal contact models by adjusting the thermal resistance coefficient and partition coefficient.

文摘The demand for anisotropic aerogels with excellent comprehensive properties in cutting-edge fields such as aerospace is growing.Based on the above background,a novel heterocyclic para-aramid nanofiber/reduced graphene oxide(HPAN/rGO)composite aerogel was prepared by combining electrospinning and unidirectional freeze-drying.The anisotropic HPAN/rGO composite aerogel exhibited a honeycomb morphology in the direction perpendicular to the growth of ice crystals,and a through-well structure of directed microchannels in the direction parallel to the temperature gradient.By varying the mass ratio of HPAN/rGO,a composite aerogel with an ultra-low density of 5.34-7.81 mg·cm^(-3) and an ultra-high porosity of 98%-99%was obtained.Benefiting from the anisotropic structure,the radial and axial thermal conductivities of HPAN/rGO-3 composite aerogel were 29.37 and 44.35 mW·m^(-1)·K^(-1),respectively.A combination of software simulation and experiments was used to analyze the effect of anisotropic structures on the thermal insulation properties of aerogels.Moreover,due to the intrinsic self-extinguishing properties of heterocyclic para-aramid and the protection of the graphene carbon layer,the composite aerogel also exhibits excellent flame retardancy properties,and its total heat release rate(THR)was only 5.8 kJ·g^(-1),which is far superior to many reported aerogels.Therefore,ultralight anisotropic HPAN/rGO composite aerogels with excellent high-temperature thermal insulation and flame retardancy properties have broad application prospects in complex environments such as aerospace.

文摘Low Earth Orbit(LEO)mega-constellation networks,exemplified by Starlink,are poised to play a pivotal role in future mobile communication networks,due to their low latency and high capacity.With the massively deployed satellites,ground users now can be covered by multiple visible satellites,but also face complex handover issues with such massive high-mobility satellites in multi-layer.The end-to-end routing is also affected by the handover behavior.In this paper,we propose an intelligent handover strategy dedicated to multi-layer LEO mega-constellation networks.Firstly,an analytic model is utilized to rapidly estimate the end-to-end propagation latency as a key handover factor to construct a multi-objective optimization model.Subsequently,an intelligent handover strategy is proposed by employing the Dueling Double Deep Q Network(D3QN)-based deep reinforcement learning algorithm for single-layer constellations.Moreover,an optimal crosslayer handover scheme is proposed by predicting the latency-jitter and minimizing the cross-layer overhead.Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method in the multi-layer LEO mega-constellation,showcasing reductions of up to 8.2%and 59.5%in end-to-end latency and jitter respectively,when compared to the existing handover strategies.
文摘BACKGROUND Elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery are at high risk for hypothermia-related complications.This study explores the efficacy of periop-erative composite insulation interventions in maintaining normothermia and reducing postoperative risks in this vulnerable group.AIM To evaluate the efficacy of perioperative composite insulation in older patients undergoing colorectal cancer surgery.METHODS We selected 100 older patients who underwent laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer at Huzhou Central Hospital from September 2023 to April 2024.Using a random number table,patients were divided into a control group and inter-vention group of 50 patients each.After returning to the regular ward,the con-ventional group received traditional insulation intervention measures,while the intervention group received composite insulation nursing intervention.We ob-served and recorded postoperative blood pressure and heart rate changes,as well as postoperative anesthesia recovery time and incidence of complications.RESULTS The statistical results showed significant differences(P<0.05)in heart rate changes and systolic blood pressure between the two groups.There was a sig-nificant change in heart rate between the groups immediately after surgery and at 15 and 30 minutes after surgery(P<0.05).The heart rate and systolic blood pressure of the intervention group were significantly lower than those of the control group at 15 and 30 minutes after surgery(P<0.05).The rewarming time of the intervention group was shorter than that of the control group,and the overall incidence of postoperative complications was significantly lower than that of the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION For elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery,a composite insulation intervention during the perioperative period can maintain body temperature,reduce postoperative stress,and significantly reduce the incidence of hypothermia and related complications.
文摘Objective:This study primarily analyzes the effectiveness of thermal insulation nursing(empowered by temperature intervention)in urological stone patients during the general anesthesia recovery period.Methods:A total of 76 urological stone patients who underwent surgical treatment as the preferred option were selected as the research subjects.The earliest consultation time was May 2024,and the latest was May 2025.The patients were randomly divided into two groups using the random number table method,namely the observation group and the control group,with 38 patients in each group.The intervention indicators of the patients were compared.Results:The overall satisfaction rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,and the incidence of adverse reactions was lower,with p<0.05.At 0.5 hours,1 hour after surgery,and at the end of surgery,the body temperature in the observation group was significantly different from that in the control group,with p<0.05.Postoperatively,various hemodynamic indicators in the observation group were significantly different from those in the control group,with p<0.05.The time to clench the first upon verbal command,the time to open the eyes upon verbal command,the extubating time,and the recovery retention time in the observation group were all shorter than those in the control group,with p<0.05.Postoperative stress indicators and agitation scores at different time points in the observation group were significantly different from those in the control group,with p<0.05.Conclusion:For urological stone patients during the general anesthesia recovery period,actively implementing thermal insulation nursing combined with temperature intervention not only enhances hemodynamic stability but also effectively reduces the risk of adverse reactions such as hypothermia and shivering.It optimizes the recovery condition,significantly improves the stress state,and increases nursing satisfaction.

文摘This study examines the development of loose-fill thermal insulation materials derived from annual plant residues,such as wheat straw,water reeds,and corn stalks,processed using the chemimechanical pulping(CMP)technique.The chopped plants were soda-cooked for 30 min,varying NaOH concentration(2%–8%on a dry basis of biomass),and mechanically refined using different disc types.The CMPprocess enhances the homogeneity and stability of defibratedmaterial,yielding improved insulation properties compared to untreated chopped rawmaterials.Chemical analysis revealed that CMP increases cellulose content and reduces lignin levels,enhancing water retention and vapor diffusion properties.Settlement tests confirmed that CMP materials are more resistant to compaction under vibration,maintaining long-term performance.Additionally,the CMP enables the production of lightweight materials that require less resource consumption while achieving comparable thermal insulation performance.The investigated biobased materials offer a sustainable alternative to conventional insulation,with competing thermal conductivity values(0.041-0.046 W/mK)at the settlement-resistant bulk density level of 60 kg/m^(3).The thermal conductivity of CMP materials remains minimally affected.However,the resulting fibers demonstrate significant advantages in stability and material efficiency.This highlights its suitability for loose-fill applications to improve the sustainability of the construction.Using renewable plant residues,CMP-based insulation materials align with circular economy principles and contribute to environmental sustainability.This research underscores the potential of CMP materials to reduce greenhouse gas emissions,optimize resource use,and promote eco-friendly building practices.
文摘Stab-resistant textiles play a critical role in personal protection,necessitating a deeper understanding of how structural and layering factors influence their performance.The current study experimentally examines the effects of textile structure,layering,and ply orientation on the stab resistance of multi-layer textiles.Three 3D warp interlock(3DWI)structures({f1},{f2},{f3})and a 2D woven fabric({f4}),all made of high-performance p-aramid yarns,were engineered and manufactured.Multi-layer specimens were prepared and subjected to drop-weight stabbing tests following HOSBD standards.Stabbing performance metrics,including Depth of Trauma(DoT),Depth of Penetration(DoP),and trauma deformation(Ymax,Xmax),were investigated and analyzed.Statistical analyses(Two-and One-Way ANOVA)indicated that fabric type and layer number significantly impacted DoP(P<0.05),while ply orientation significantly affected DoP(P<0.05)but not DoT(P>0.05).Further detailed analysis revealed that 2D woven fabrics exhibited greater trauma deformation than 3D WIF structures.Increasing the number of layers reduced both DoP and DoT across all fabric structures,with f3 demonstrating the best performance in multi-layer configurations.Aligned ply orientations also enhanced stab resistance,underscoring the importance of alignment in dissipating impact energy.

文摘Thermal protection systems are very essential for high temperature thermal conductivity measurement system to reduce the heat loss to environment at the range of 600-1800 K. A compound multi-layer insulations structure which composed of inner carbon fibrous materials and outer alternately arranged alumina fibrous materials and high reflectivity foils is proposed for use in high temperature cylinder thermal protection systems. A coupled conductive and radiation governing equations is presented for heat transfer analysis of the structure. The finite volume method and the discrete ordinate method are used to solve the goveming equations. The optimization structure of the compound multi-layer insulations is investigated by considering the pressure of the gas, the density of the carbon fibrous materials, the density of the alumina fibrous materials, the number of reflective foil layers and the emissivity of reflective foils. The results show that the compound structure has the best thermal insulation performance when the pressure of the gas is below 0.01 kPa, the density of carbon fibrous materials is 180 kg m^-3, the density of alumina fibrous materials is 256 kg m^-3 and the number of reflective foil layers is 39. In addition, the thermal insulation performance is much better when the emissivity of reflective foils is lower.

文摘Marine umbilical is one of the key equipment for subsea oil and gas exploitation,which is usually integrated by a great number of different functional components with multi-layers.The layout of these components directly affects manufacturing,operation and storage performances of the umbilical.For the multi-layer cross-sectional layout design of the umbilical,a quantifiable multi-objective optimization model is established according to the operation and storage requirements.Considering the manufacturing factors,the multi-layering strategy based on contact point identification is introduced for a great number of functional components.Then,the GA-GLM global optimization algorithm is proposed combining the genetic algorithm and the generalized multiplier method,and the selection operator of the genetic algorithm is improved based on the steepest descent method.Genetic algorithm is used to find the optimal solution in the global space,which can converge from any initial layout to the feasible layout solution.The feasible layout solution is taken as the initial value of the generalized multiplier method for fast and accurate solution.Finally,taking umbilicals with a great number of components as examples,the results show that the cross-sectional performance of the umbilical obtained by optimization algorithm is better and the solution efficiency is higher.Meanwhile,the multi-layering strategy is effective and feasible.The design method proposed in this paper can quickly obtain the optimal multi-layer cross-sectional layout,which replaces the manual design,and provides useful reference and guidance for the umbilical industry.
