The mathematical model of the problem and theoretical studies of the motion of cotton mass on plane of scraper is derived taking into account material point by accomplishing plane motion in the mesh surface. Graphs of the experiment shows that performance of scraper inclined to the radius of the disk by the value α=30° to the surface mesh β=110°, optimally allows to reduce the formation of technological defects of raw cotton. The presence of zero-pressure portion on the mesh surface of separator may provide complete removal of cotton from its surface and to eliminate grid clogging.展开更多

In addition, accurate predictions of induced radioactivity are essential to the design, operation, and decommissioning of a high-energy electron linear accelerator. In the case of the 200-MeV electron linac of the National Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory(NSRL), the electrons are accelerated by five acceleration tubes and collimated by copper scrapers. The scrapers, which play a vital role in protecting the acceleration cavity, are bombarded by many electrons over a long-term operation, which causes a significant amount of induced radioactivity. Recently, the NSRL Linac is the first high-energy electron linear accelerator in China to be out of commission.Its decommissioning is highly significant for obtaining decommissioning experience. This paper focuses on the measurement of induced radioactivity on the fourth scraper, where the electron energy was 158 MeV. The radionuclides were classified according to their half-lives. Such a classification provides a reliable basis for the formulation of radiation protection and facility decommissioning. To determine the high-radioactivity area and to facilitate the decommissioning process, the slicing method was applied in this study. The specific activity of60 Co in each slice was measured at a cooling time of ten months, and the results were compared with the predictions generated by Monte Carlo program FLUKA. The trend of the measured results is in good agreement with the normalized simulation results. The slicing simulation using Monte Carlo method is useful for the determination of high-radiation areas and proper material handling protocols and, therefore, lays a foundation for the accumulation of decommissioning experience.展开更多

Recently, the new endoscopic scraper Trefle~? has been reported and demonstrated high cancer detectability in malignant biliary strictures. This device is used to scrape the stricture over the guidewire, and, in the original method, the tissue and/or cell samples obtained are subjected to histological and/or cytological analysis separately. However, discrimination of chunks of tissue is hampered by the opacity of the surrounding fluid. We have developed a cell block technique for the Trefle~? device without dividing obtained specimens into tissue and cellular components, which is the simplest method and enables immunohistochemical analysis. We present a case of obstructive jaundice diagnosed immunohistochemically as pancreatic metastasis from colon cancer using cell block sections obtained with the Trefle~? device, which procedure is as easy as conventional brush cytology.展开更多

Since scraper failure rate directly affects production costs and production capacity, the evaluation and the prediction of scraper conveyor reliability are important for these enterprises. In this paper, the reliabilities of different parts are classified and discussed according to their structural characteristics and different failure factors. Based on the component＇s time-to-failure density function, the reliability model of scraper chain is constructed to track the age distribution of part population and the reliability change of the scraper chain. Based on the stress-strength interference model, considering the decrease of strength due to fatigue failure, the dynamic reliability model of such component as gear, axis is developed to observe the change of the part reliability with the service time of scraper. Finally, system reliability model of the scraper is established for the maintenance to simulate and calculate the scraper reliability.展开更多
