Numerous mine explosions have originated from explosive gas zones(EGZs) in the longwall gob. Since 2010, researchers at the Colorado School of Mines(CSM) have studied EGZ formation in longwall gobs under two long-term research projects funded by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health. Researchers used computational fluid dynamics along with in-mine measurements. For the first time, they demonstrated that EGZs form along the fringe areas between the methane-rich atmospheres and the fresh air ventilated areas along the working face and present an explosion and fire hazard to mine workers. In this study, researchers found that, for progressively sealed gobs, a targeted injection of nitrogen from the headgate and tailgate, along with a back return ventilation arrangement, will create a dynamic seal of nitrogen that effectively separates the methane zone from the face air and eliminates the EGZs to prevent explosions. Using this form of nitrogen injection to create dynamic seals should be a consideration for all longwall operators.展开更多

Data on number of fires and burned area size from 1985 until 2009 were retrieved from the European Fire Database in the European Forest Fire Information System and used to study the temporal and spatial variability of fire occurrence at three different spatial scales： the whole European Mediterranean region, country level and province level （NUTS3）. The temporal trends were assessed with the Mann-Kendall test and Sen＇s slope in the period 1985-2009. At regional （supranational） level, our results suggest a significant decreasing trend in the burned area for the whole study period. At country level, the trends vary by country, although there is a general increase in number of fires, mainly in Portugal, and a decrease in bumed areas, as is the case of Spain. A similar behavior was found at NUTS3 level, with an increase of number of fires in the Spanish and Portuguese provinces and a generalized decrease of the burned area in most provinces of the region. These results provide an important insight into the spatial distribution and temporal evolution of fires, a crucial step to investigate the underlying causes and impacts of fire occurrence in this region.展开更多

In movable electrode structures, springs are typically used to push the electrodes and the propellant. The effects of spring pressure on the ignition and combustion of propellants have not yet been studied. In this paper, a universal testing machine and an electrochemical workstation were firstly utilized to investigate the compressive mechanical property and conductivity of Hydroxylamine Nitrate(HAN)-ECSP. The maximum pressure at which the propellant undergoes elastic deformation is 65 kPa. When the spring pressure increased from 5.1 k Pa to 20.4 kPa, the propellant resistance decreased from 56.8 Ω to 36.8 Ω.Various observation methods were employed to study the process of electrical energy injection and the ignition and combustion characteristics under constant voltage. Appropriately increasing the spring pressure can accelerate the injection of electrical energy into the propellant, increase the electrification current, and thus reduce the initial ignition delay time of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 20.4 kPa, the squeezing speed of the propellant is too fast, making it difficult for the propellant to be adequately heated at the electrode interface, which is unfavorable for ignition. Excessive spring pressure also leads to the accumulation of a large amount of combustion residue on the electrode plate, hindering the mixing and diffusion of hot gases during the second ignition process, preventing the gaseous flame of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 5.1 kPa, improving the working voltage can enhance the repeated ignition characteristics of the propellant.展开更多

文摘Boron has attracted increasing attention in the field of high-energy explosives and propellants due to its high volume calorific value and mass calorific value.However,the complicated combustion process and low combustion efficiency hinder its wide application.To tackle this challenge,bioinspired polydopamine(PDA)interface reinforced boron-Viton composites,with high structure stability and excellent energy releasing efficiency,are designed and prepared,combining the interface regulation of PDA biomimetic materials and combustion promotion of fluoropolymers.Firstly,the stronger adsorption energy of PDA with boron compared to Viton is demonstrated by molecular dynamics simulations.Next,B@PDA@Viton is prepared by the combination of in-situ dopamine polymerization and solvent/nonsolvent method,and the double-layer core-shell structure is confirmed by XPS,FTIR,and TEM characterizations.TG-DSC analysis shows that B@PDA@Viton possesses superior thermal properties,with a 55.48%increase in oxidation heat compared to raw B.Furthermore,ignition and combustion performance tests indicate that B@PDA@Viton reduces ignition delay by 57.56%and increases heat of combustion by 68.63%relative to raw B.These findings elucidate the ignition and combustion mechanisms of B@PDA@Viton.This work not only developed high-performance boron-based composite fuels but also provided insights into the development of boron-based fuels.

文摘The electrode structures in ignition devices for Electrically Controlled Solid Propellants(ECSP) can be classified into fixed and movable types. In movable electrode structures, springs are typically used to push the electrodes and the propellant. The effects of spring pressure on the ignition and combustion of propellants have not yet been studied. In this paper, a universal testing machine and an electrochemical workstation were firstly utilized to investigate the compressive mechanical property and conductivity of Hydroxylamine Nitrate(HAN)-ECSP. The maximum pressure at which the propellant undergoes elastic deformation is 65 kPa. When the spring pressure increased from 5.1 k Pa to 20.4 kPa, the propellant resistance decreased from 56.8 Ω to 36.8 Ω.Various observation methods were employed to study the process of electrical energy injection and the ignition and combustion characteristics under constant voltage. Appropriately increasing the spring pressure can accelerate the injection of electrical energy into the propellant, increase the electrification current, and thus reduce the initial ignition delay time of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 20.4 kPa, the squeezing speed of the propellant is too fast, making it difficult for the propellant to be adequately heated at the electrode interface, which is unfavorable for ignition. Excessive spring pressure also leads to the accumulation of a large amount of combustion residue on the electrode plate, hindering the mixing and diffusion of hot gases during the second ignition process, preventing the gaseous flame of the propellant. When the spring pressure is 5.1 kPa, improving the working voltage can enhance the repeated ignition characteristics of the propellant.

文摘Underwater gas-liquid two-phase propulsion technology is an emerging propulsion method that offers high efficiency and unrestricted navigation speed.The integration of this technology into water ramjet engines can significantly enhance propulsion efficiency and holds substantial potential for broad applications.However,forming a gas-liquid two-phase flow within the nozzle requires introducing a large amount of rammed seawater.At this time,there is a complex phase transition problem of combustion products in the combustion chamber,which makes the thermodynamic calculation for gas-liquid two-phase water ramjet engines particularly challenging.This paper proposes a thermodynamic calculation method for gas-liquid two-phase water ramjet engines,based on the energy equation for gas-liquid two-phase flow and traditional thermodynamic principles,enabling thermodynamic calculations under conditions of ultra-high water-fuel ratios.Additionally,ground ignition tests of the gas-liquid two-phase engine were conducted,yielding critical engine test parameters.The results demonstrate that the gas-liquid two-phase water ramjet engine achieves a high specific impulse,with a theoretical maximum specific impulse of up to 7000(N s)/kg.The multiphase flow effects significantly impact engine performance,with specific impulse losses reaching up to 25.86%.The error between the thrust and specific impulse in the ground test and the theoretical values is within 10%,validating the proposed thermodynamic calculation method as a reliable reference for further research on gas-liquid two-phase water ramjet engines.

文摘Pre-chamber ignition technology can address the issue of uneven in-cylinder mixture combustion in large-bore marine engines.The impact of various pre-chamber structures on the formation of the mixture and jet flames within the pre-chamber is explored.This study performed numerical simulations on a large-bore marine ammonia/hydrogen pre-chamber engine prototype,considering pre-chamber volume,throat diameter,the distance between the hydrogen injector and the spark plug,and the hydrogen injector angle.Compared with the original engine,when the pre-chamber volume is 73.4 ml,the throat diameter is 14 mm,the distance ratio is 0.92,and the hydrogen injector angle is 80°.Moreover,the peak pressure in the pre-chamber increased by 23.1%,and that in the main chamber increased by 46.3%.The results indicate that the performance of the original engine is greatly enhanced by altering its fuel and pre-chamber structure.

文摘The incorporation of Y significantly improves the fire resistance of the Mg-3Nd-2Gd-0.2Zr-0.2Zn(EV32)alloy.The findings indicate a significant increase in the ignition point of the alloy upon Y addition,notably reaching 813.9℃ for the EV32–3Y(wt.%)alloy.Additionally,the calculated residual stresses of the Y_(2)O_(3) and Gd_(2)O_(3) films were 2.732 GPa and 2.569 GPa respectively,showcasing a distinct correlation between Y concentration and improved fire resistance.This enhancement can be attributed to the formation of denser oxide films,especially Y_(2)O_(3) and Gd_(2)O_(3),effectively reducing the susceptibility of the oxide film to thermal stress-induced tearing.The study elucidates the vital role of Y addition in enhancing fire resistance,thoroughly investigating the mechanisms that impact both the formation of oxide films and ignition within the alloy structure.These findings not only contribute to a deeper comprehension of magnesium alloy performance under high-temperature conditions but also offer valuable theoretical guidance for enhancing its fire resistance through alloy design and application.

文摘Magnesium and its alloys offer lightweight advantage and have extensive development prospects,particularly in aerospace.However,their flammability poses a significant barrier on the development of Mg alloys.The ignition resistance of these alloys often depends on the protectiveness of the oxide film formed on the surface.This paper elucidates the formation mechanism of oxide film from thermodynamics and kinetics,classifying oxide films based on their layered structure to assess their protective properties.Furthermore,it comprehensively reviews the impact of characteristics on the protective effectiveness such as compactness,continuity,thickness,and mechanical properties.The paper also introduces various characterization methods for the microstructure and properties of oxide film.The primary objective of this paper is to enhance the comprehension of oxide film concerning the ignition resistance of Mg alloys and to furnish references for future advancements and research in Mg alloys with heightened ignition resistance.

文摘Enhancing the ignition system performance of turbo engines is crucial,with a focus on rapidly and reliably igniting the entire combustor in low-temperature,low-pressure,high-speed inlet flow conditions.This challenge has garnered international attention.To address the issue of reliable ignition in the combustors of advanced propulsion system,this paper proposes a Multichannel Jet Enhanced Plasma Igniter(MJEPI) and conducts comparative experimental studies with the conventional spark igniter in a component-level dual-dome swirl combustor.The ignition limit in the combustor is obtained and the ignition processes are recorded.Experimental results demonstrate that the MJEPI significantly improves the ignition performance at high altitude.Specifically,at 0 km and 6 km for ground start-up,ignition limit is extended by 36% and 29%,respectively.At 6 km and 12 km for high-altitude relight,ignition limit is extended by 32% and 21%,respectively.The maximum ignition height is increased by 2.3 km,as determined by the global equivalence ratio of 1.The primary reason for these improvements is attributed to the larger initial flame kernel with greater penetration depth generated by MJEPI,which enables it to withstand more sever conditions such as low temperature,low pressure,and poor kerosene spray quality at elevated altitudes.

文摘The reignition of aero-engine combustors at high altitudes poses significant challenges due to the low-temperature and low-pressure environment.A novel Long Pulse-Width Plasma Ignition(LPWPI)system has been developed to enhance ignition performance.The LPWPI system can effectively prolong the discharge duration time,improve ignition efficacy,and increase the plasma penetration depth.Experimental comparisons with the traditional Spark Ignition(SI)system demonstrate that the LPWPI increased discharge duration to 2.03 ms,which is 45 times longer than that of the SI system,while also doubling the spark penetration depth to 24.1 mm.The LPWPI system achieved a discharge efficiency of 61.1%,significantly surpassing the SI system's efficiency of23.3%.These advancements facilitated an extension of the lean ignition boundary by approximately 22.7%to 39.3%.High-speed camera recordings reveal that the spark duration of the LPWPI system was extended to 2.1 ms,compared to 0.6 ms in the SI system.Ignition progress with LPWPI shows a sustained spark kernel without the flame residence stage observed in the SI system.The impressive performance of the LPWPI system suggests that it is a promising alternative for aero-engine ignition systems.

文摘Oxide films hinder diffusion and resist external forces,which determines the flame ignition mechanism of magnesium alloys.The effects of the continuity,compactness and mechanical properties of oxide films on the ignition mechanism were analyzed,by investigating the flame ignition behaviors of AZ80(ZM5),EZ30K(ZM6)and WE43 Mg alloys.The results show that the rupture of the oxide films caused by liquid gravity was the key to causing ignition.According to thermodynamic calculations,compared with Mg,Al cannot be preferentially oxidized;while Nd can be preferentially oxidized through significant enrichment,resulting in a discontinuous Nd_(2)O_(3)inner layer in the ZM6 alloy;in contrast,Y has a strong preferential oxidation ability,which gives the WE43 alloy a continuous Y_(2)O_(3)inner layer and self-healing ability.In addition,the oxide film of the ZM5 alloy is loose and has poor mechanical properties,so it cannot effec-tively hinder diffusion and resist liquid gravity.Differently,the oxide films of the ZM6 and WE43 alloys are dense and have better mechanical properties,leading to higher ignition temperatures and longer igni-tion times.In addition,a criterion was proposed to predict the ignition time based on the law of energy conservation,and it was simplified to predict the ignition temperature.The errors between the predicted and measured values are within 11%.

文摘Aluminum-water(Al-H_(2)O)propellants represent an innovative class of solid propellants characterized by low cost and minimal signal signature.However,conventional formulations are hindered by significant aluminum(Al)agglomeration,leading to reduced combustion efficiency and substantial residues.This study introduces a method for modifying Al powder with Polyvinylidene Fluoride(PVDF)to enhance the performance of Al-H_(2)O propellants by mitigating agglomeration during combustion.Experimental methodologies,including thermogravimetric analysis under ambient-pressure nitrogen atmosphere and laser ignition tests,were employed to investigate the influence of varying PVDF content on the combustion characteristics of the propellants.Furthermore,the effect of PVDF on motor performance was systematically evaluated through laboratoryscale Solid Rocket Motor(SRM)tests.The results demonstrate that the addition of 7.5%PVDF significantly enhances the burning rate from 1.12 mm/s to 3.78 mm/s and reduces the mean particle size of condensed combustion products from 699μm to 527μm.Combustion efficiency rises from88.57%to 94.51%,while injection efficiency improves significantly from 30.45%to 70.45%.SRM tests further demonstrate an increase in combustion chamber pressure from 0.17 MPa to 0.58 MPa.A dynamic agglomeration model explains these improvements,attributing reduced agglomeration to enhanced aerodynamic forces and a thinner melting layer,while increased gas yield improves injection performance.This study highlights PVDF's potential in advancing Al-H_(2)O propellants by improving combustion and injection efficiency.

文摘Gas explosions in coal mine goafs are associated with the roof rock fracturing.An experimental system was established to investigate the potential for electrical ignition induced by sandstone fracturing.The electrical responses,luminescent emissions,and ignition characteristics during tensile and compressive failure of sandstones were analyzed in methane/air premixed gas environments.Results indicate that the application of mechanical loading induces the emergence of electrical signals on rock surfaces and in the surrounding atmosphere.This phenomenon is attributed to the generation,accumulation,and subsequent release of free charges during the deformation and fracture within the sandstone.Compressive failure proved to be more conducive to free charge generation than tensile failure,owing to more crack connections.Furthermore,a precipitous increase in surface and external voltages was observed during complete fracturing,a consequence of electron emission from crack tips within the rock structure.Moreover,the ionization induces luminous emissions owing to the collision of energetic electrons released from gas molecules in methane/air mixtures.A strong positive correlation(R2=0.9429)was identified between luminescence intensity and the magnitude of electrical discharge resulting from rock fracture.Notably,such discharge by rock fracturing can be capable of igniting the premixed gas,particularly when the quartz content exceeds 61%.Piezoelectric effects and crack propagation are crucial mechanisms in the causal chain of the charge generation,discharge,and ionization triggered by rock fractures.Based on the above laboratory results,electric ignition of the transient roof fracturing caused by stress mutations can serve as a new potential ignition source for gas explosions in the goaf.These results offer new insights into the prevention and control of gas explosions.

文摘The internal and external flow fields during vented explosions of methane were characterized through numerical simulation,and the capability of numerical simulation thereof was validated by previous experimental data at three ignition positions.The venting mechanism was revealed by the simulated concentration distribution,temperature profile,and airflow velocity.The results show rear ignition results in the external methane mass distribution taking the form of"mushroom"and columnar flames in the external space,which can be expressed as a third-order polynomial relationship with distance;central ignition forms a relationship of the form y=AxB.Front ignition causes the temperature to show a tendency to repeated oscillations(rising,falling,and rising).Central ignition generates the maximum vented airflow velocity(V_(max)=320 m/s)upon vent opening.The results indicate that it is acceptable to apply numerical simulation of methane explosions in practice.

文摘A numerical and experimental study was conducted to investigate the Laser Ablation(LA)ignition mode in an ethylene-fueled supersonic combustor with a cavity flameholder.Theexperiments were operated under a Mach number 2.92 supersonic inflow,with stagnation pressureof 2.4 MPa and stagnation temperature of 1600 K.Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulationswere conducted to characterize the mixing process and flow field structure.This study identifiedfour distinct LA ignition modes.Under the specified condition,laser ablation in zero and negativedefocusing states manifested two distinct ignition modes termed Laser Ablation Direct Ignition(LADI)mode and Laser Ablation Re-Ignition(LARI)mode,correspondingly.LA ignition in alocal small cavity,created by depressing the flow field regulator,could facilitate the ignition modetransforming from LARI mode to Laser Ablation Transition Ignition(LATI)mode.On the otherhand,the elevation of the flow field regulator effectively inhibited the forward propagation of theinitial flame kernel and reduced the dissipation of LA plasma,further enhancing the LADI mode.Based on these characteristics,the LADI mode was subdivided into strong(LADI-S)and weak(LADI-W)modes.Facilitating the transition of ignition modes through alterations in the local flowfield could contribute to attaining a more effective and stable LA ignition.

文摘In this study,the modified split Hopkinson pressure bar(SHPB)system,complemented by synchronized high-speed holography and direct shooting imaging techniques,was employed to investigate the impact-induced mechanical,ignition and reaction growth behavior of high-ductility composite energetic materials(CEMs).The experiments were performed over a large range of strain rate conditions of 3,000–6,000 s^(-1)for samples containing different components of solid explosive granules.The strainstress relationships,onset of ignition and reaction growth in impact-induced debris clouds were quantitatively studied.The results show that ignition was a result of compression and deformation,triggered significantly by the effects of shear extrusion friction.The critical strain rate of ignition was approximately 4,000–5,000 s^(-1).The average particle size inside the debris before and after ignition ranges from 41.3 to 49.5μm.The particle quantity and size produced by the impact of the CEM increase as the strain rate increases.The sustainability of the ignition,or its rapid quenching,was tightly correlated with the size and density of the impact-induced debris cloud.For high-strain rate impacts,denser debris clouds were produced,which effectively favors the sustaining and propagation of the initial ignition core.The results provide valuable insights for establishing the criteria of the impact induced reaction growth and enhancing the safety and reliability of high-ductility energetic materials used in aerospace and national defense applications.
