文摘Switched-capacitor/flying capacitor(FC)based multilevel converters have been gaining higher attention for their voltage-boosting ability.This feature makes them an attractive solution for renewable energy systems,such as low-voltage input photovoltaic power systems and electric vehicle systems.However,they usually require more high voltage rating switches and flying capacitors along with boosting capability.Furthermore,they suffer from high pulse currents at the switching transients.Aiming to solve these issues,this article proposes a new self-balancing three-phase five-level inverter based on the switched-capacitor(5L-SCTPNPC),which reduces the dc voltage requirement.The number of active switches is relatively smaller and seven active switches are required per phase.Especially,a soft-charging circuit for FC is designed to limit the impulse charging current.Compared to conventional multilevel inverters,the proposed five-level inverter reduces dc bus voltage by 50%.Significantly,the voltage stress of FC and the switches in parallel with FC are all reduced by 50%in comparison with some existing similar boosting five-level active-neutral-point-clamped(5L-BANPC)inverters.The operating principles,modulation strategy,and the design of the FC and charging inductor are provided in detailly.A comprehensive comparison study has been made to highlight the merits of the proposed inverter.Finally,the simulations and experiments validate the feasibility of the proposed topology.

文摘The implementation of multifunctional application scenarios for mobile terminal devices has increased the energy density requirements of batteries.Increasing the charging voltage can rapidly increase the specific capacity of layered transition metal oxides;however,it also exacerbates the release of lattice oxygen and the contraction of the unit cell.Ternary materials are designed in a secondary particle state to meet the requirements of power battery applications.Therefore,to create ternary materials that can operate under ultrahigh voltages,attention should be given to both surface modification and particle integrity maintenance.By utilizing elemental selenium(Se)with a low melting point,easy sublimation,and multiple variable valence states,deep grain boundary modification was implemented inside the particles.The performance of the cathode material was evaluated through pouch cells,and the improvement mechanism was explored through molecular dynamics simulation calculations.Under the protection of a three-dimensional Se-rich modified layer,LiNi_(1/3)Co_(1/3)Mn_(1/3)O_(2)achieved stable operation at ultrahigh voltages(4.6 V vs.Li/Li^(+));a sacrificial protection mechanism based on the chronic decomposition of the Se-rich layer was proposed to explain the efficacy of Se modification in stabilizing ternary materials.This deep grain boundary modification based on elemental Se provides a new solution for the ultrahigh-voltage operation of transition metal oxides and provides a scientific basis and technical support for solving the interface contact problem of all-solid-state batteries.

文摘Reactive compatibilization has been widely applied to enhance the compatibility of polymer blends,thereby improving their mechanical properties.However,it generally reduces the chain mobility and regularity,often leading to slower polymer crystallization.Here,we demonstrate that reactive compatibilization in poly(lactic acid)/poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)(PLA/PBAT)blends unexpectedly promotes PLA matrix crystallization during injection molding,in contrast to the retarded kinetics observed in differential scanning calorimetry isothermal crystallization studies.The phase morphology,rheological behavior,and crystalline structure were systematically analyzed to elucidate markedly different crystallization kinetics under static and shear fields.The potential mechanism underlying crystallization enhancement is attributed to PBAT domain refinement and viscosity increase induced by reactive compatibilization,which,under shear flow,create favorable conditions for crystallization by enhancing PBAT fibril nucleation and retarding the relaxation of oriented PLA chains.This study offers new perspectives on the effect of reactive compatibilization on the polymer crystallization behavior.
文摘Hybrid commutation converters(HCCs)utilizing reverse-blocking integrated gate commutation thyristors(IGCTs)have gained significant attention due to their immunity to commutation failure.Leveraging the recovery enhancement characteristics of IGCTs,HCCs demonstrate superior performance at reduced extinction angles,thereby minimizing reactive power consumption.This study presents a comprehensive investigation into reactive power control strategies for HCCs operating at small extinction angles.First,the topological configuration and commutation principle of HCC are elucidated.Subsequently,the mechanism of HCC reactive power control is analyzed,and a reactive power control strategy is proposed by combining the converter transformer taps with extinction angles.Moreover,the relationship between transformer taps and reactive power exchange under different rated extinction angles is calculated,and the theoretically rated extinction angle is proposed.Finally,to validate the proposed control strategy,a four-terminal ultra-high voltage direct current power grid incorporating HCC technology is modeled and sim-ulated using PSCAD/EMTDC.The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed strategy effectively supports AC systems by reducing reactive power absorption in HCCs,while simultaneously exhibiting enhanced reli-ability and economic efficiency.

文摘The transient synchronization stability of grid-forming converters(GFMCs)is significantly challenged under grid voltage sags.Continuous efforts have been devoted to analyzing the GFMC transient stability,with limited attention paid to the impacts of control loop dynamics.However,the complex control dynamics,especially the interactions between the active/reactive power control loops and the current saturation process(CSP),are crucial for accurately describing the transient behavior and evaluating the stability.Thus,in this study,a new large-signal GFMC model is established,considering the reactive power control(RPC)with different kinds of controllers and the CSP simultaneously.It is revealed that GFMC does not switch to the current-limited mode immediately,and the dynamics of RPC further affect the transient behavior before the current limiting significantly.Hence,the complex control dynamics can alter the mode switching point of current saturation,thereby increasing the risk of loss of synchronization(LOS).Based on the above findings,comprehensive comparisons of typical RPC controllers are presented to facilitate practical engineering applications.A unified stability enhancement method is proposed for solving the problem of LOS.Finally,experiments validate the correctness of the analysis and the effectiveness of the proposed control strategy.

文摘Rubber-toughened thermoplastic materials have become ubiquitous in modern society owing to their lightweight nature and desirable combination of advantageous performances.Despite the ever-increasing demand,the development of polymer alloys that are lightweight,high-strength,and high-toughness remains an ongoing challenge.Inspired by the unique“salami”microstructure from commercial acrylonitrile butadiene styrene copolymer(ABS)and high-impact polystyrene(HIPS),a facile approach was developed to overcome the trade-off between enhancing the toughness and rigidity of fully polymer-based alloys by virtue of elastomeric salami particles.This strategy entails pre-grafting rigid poly(lactic acid)(PLLA)chains with glycidyl methacrylate-grafted octene ethylene copolymer(POE-g-GMA)using complementary reactive groups.It can be envisaged that the PLLA grafts featuring strong incompatibility with polypropylene(PP)remain fixed in elastomer phase upon the subsequent melt compounding,facilitating the in situ formation of“hard core(PLLA)-soft shell(polyolefin elastomer,POE)”particles in polypropylene(PP)matrix.The all-polymer alloys containing elastomeric salami particles demonstrated unprecedented performance combinations,including upper notched impact strengths(56.8 kJ/m2),even higher tensile strength(36.8 MPa),and Young’s modulus(0.93 GPa)than that of the PP matrix.Furthermore,these materials are lightweight without the incorporation of reinforcing nano-fillers,which is competitive with industrial engineering plastics.It is highly anticipated that this universal and highly efficient protocol will be appropriate for arbitrary rubber toughened/reinforced systems,offering a paradigm in the design of advanced all-polymer alloys.

文摘Biochar and zero-valent iron are promising materials for the removal of trichloroethylene(TCE)from groundwater,but further research is still required on the synergistic mechanism and hydraulic performance in the permeable reactive barriers(PRBs)with biochar-iron composites.In this work,biochar-iron composites were synthesized by two different methods,and subjected to the microscopic analysis,batch experiments and the PRB’s model tests.The results indicated that the removal rates of TCE on biochar-iron composites reached above 90%,and the optimal removal conditions were the initial pH of 6.0 and a biochar/iron mass ratio of 5:1.The removal of TCE on biochar-iron composites followed the pseudo-second-order and Freundlich models,and the maximum adsorption capacity of TCE was 25.95 mg/g.The adsorption of biochar and dechlorination of nZVI dominated the removal of TCE.Biochar significantly enhanced the dechlorination of TCE on nZVI through modifying the electrochemical characteristics to lower its corrosion potential of nZVI,promote direct electron transfer,and improve electronic transfer capability.M-5BC-1nZVI exhibited excellent hydraulic performance for maintaining an adequate permeability coefficient(10^(−6)to 10^(−5)m/s).

文摘The susceptibility of ore particles to electrical breakdown plays a critical role for high voltage pulse(HVP)breakage,yet its quantitative characterization still lacks deep understanding.Two indicators,namely breakdown delay time(T_(d))and breakdown strength(E_(b))were compared,based on analysis on the two breakdown modes namely wavefront mode and post-wave mode.It was found that T_(d) is more suitable to characterize the susceptibility of ore particles to electrical breakdown in HVP breakage than E_(b).A probabilistic model based on the Weibull distribution is developed to describe the relation of breakdown probability to T_(d).Regression analyses were conducted to investigate how operating parameters and particle properties influence Td and size reduction degree of ore particles in HVP breakage.The regressed models demonstrate potential capability to predict metallic minerals content and HVP breakage degree based on operating parameters and particle properties.

文摘Given the wide application of DC grids,the protection equipment of power grids must be improved during the fault period.This study proposes an integrated multiport flexible voltage clamp circuit breaker with a DC chopper acting on the receiving end converter to solve the DC short circuit fault and surplus power because of AC low-voltage fault;it has a modular design.As a DC circuit breaker,the device utilizes the voltage-clamping principle and thyristor semi-control to remove faults.As the fault current increases,the branch circuit outputs different voltage levels by selecting different gears,thereby controlling the voltage-clamping effect.This device can distinguish between different fault types to prevent secondary shocks in the system.As a DC chopper,the voltage at both ends of the energy dissipation resistor is varied by switching submodules,consuming surplus power to complete AC low-voltage faults and minimizing the impact of low-voltage faults on the system’s transmission capacity.Finally,the effectiveness and applicability of the equipment are verified using wind turbines connected to a flexible DC transmission three-terminal power grid model in PSCAD/EMTDC,and two fault simulation types are analyzed.A comparison of the electrical quantities(fault current,system voltage and branch voltage)of the proposed circuit breaker with other similar equipment shows that due to the efficiency of the proposed equipment,the peak fault current is reduced by at least 35.8%.The required voltage stress of key power electronic equipment is reduced by at least 71.5%.Therefore,the equipment ensures that the per-unit voltage of the DC system does not exceed 1.05 during AC fault crossing.

文摘A multi-phase stacked interleaved buck converter(SIBC)is suitable for large-power water electrolysis applications due to its merits of high current output capability and zero output current ripple.However,the auxiliary converter used to compensate for the current ripple still has to withstand high voltage stress.This paper proposes a new multi-phase SIBC applied in the multicarrier energy system integrating electricity,heat,and hydrogen.A resistor-capacitor voltage divider is used to provide the input voltage of the auxiliary converter and as a heater for the thermal loads.Thus,the voltage stress of the auxiliary converter can be reduced at a low cost,and the size of the filter inductor can be reduced.With accurate voltage and current analysis and appropriate parameter design,the voltage stresses of both the switches and capacitors in the auxiliary converter can be further limited within an expected range.The experimental results verify the correctness of the topology,modulation,analysis,and design methods.A comparison with the conventional method is made in terms of cost,volume,and efficiency to show the advantages of the proposed method.

文摘Achieving high selectivity to 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid(FDCA)in the photocatalytic oxidation of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural(HMF)in aqueous solution advocates the principle of green and sustainable chemistry,but still remains a significant challenge.Herein,manipulating the reactive oxygen species(ROS)has been realized and dramatically promotes the selective photocatalytic oxidation of HMF in aqueous solution.A high FDCAyield of 98.6% has been achieved after 3 h of visible light irradiation over the as-prepared FeO_(x)-Au/TiO_(2) catalyst,being one of the leading photocatalytic performances.Furthermore,satisfactory FDCA yields of higher than 80%could be realized even in the outdoor environment under natural sunlight irradiation,regardless of sunny or cloudy weather.A combination study including physical characterization,kinetic analysis,radical trapping experiments and density functional theory calculations unveils the rate-determining step(oxidation of hydroxyl group)and respective contributions of the generated ROS(1O_(2) and·O_(2)-)in each step of the entire reaction network.The present work would push ahead the understanding of HMF photocatalytic oxidation and contribute to the rational design of high-performance photocatalysts.

文摘With the prevalence of renewable distributed energy resources(DERs)such as photovoltaics(PVs),modern active distribution networks(ADNs)suffer from voltage deviation and power quality issues.However,traditional voltage control methods often face a trade-off between efficiency and effectiveness,and rarely ensure robust voltage safety under typical state perturbations in practical distribution grids.In this paper,a robust model-free voltage regulation approach is proposed which simultaneously takes security and robustness into account.In this context,the voltage control problem is formulated as a constrained Markov decision process(CMDP).A safety-augmented multiagent deep deterministic policy gradient(MADDPG)algorithm is the trained to enable real-time collaborative optimization of ADNs,aiming to maintain nodal voltages within safe operational limits while minimizing total line losses.Moreover,a robust regulation loss is introduced to ensure reliable performance under various state perturbations in practical voltage controls.The proposed regulation algorithm effectively balance efficiency,safety,and robustness,and also demonstrates potential for generalizing these characteristics to other applications.Numerical studies vali-date the robustness of the proposed method under varying state perturbations on the IEEE test cases and the optimal integrated control performance when compared to other benchmarks.
