However, when the rotational speed varies in the broader range, the pass-frequencies vary with the change of rotational speed and bearing faults cannot be identified by the interval of impacts. Researches related to automatic diagnosis for rotational machinery in variable operating conditions were quite few. A novel automatic feature extraction method is proposed based on a pseudo-Wigner-Ville distribution (PWVD) and an extraction of symptom parameter (SP). An extraction method for instantaneous feature spectrum is presented using the relative crossing information (RCI) and sequential inference approach, by which the feature spectrum from time-frequency distribution can be automatically, sequentially extracted. The SPs are considered in the frequency domain using the extracted feature spectrum to identify among the conditions of a machine. A method to obtain the synthetic symptom parameter is also proposed by the least squares mapping (LSM) technique for increasing the diagnosis sensitivity of SP. Practical examples of diagnosis for bearings are given in order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. The verification results show that the features of bearing faults, such as the outer-race, inner-race and roller element defects have been effectively extracted, and the proposed method can be used for condition diagnosis of a machine under the variable rotational speed.展开更多

However, the risk of safety issues increases when high-energy batteries using highly active materials encounter harsh operating conditions. Here we report on the synthesis of a unique ionogel electrolyte for abuse-tolerant lithium batteries. A hierarchically architected silica/polymer scaffold is designed and fabricated through a facile soft chemistry route, which is competent to confine ionic liquids with superior uptake ability (92.4 wt%).

The test results showed that the GOR-Q catalyst could obviously reduce the content of several kinds of olefins in FCC gasoline. Olefins in the FCC gasoline consist mainly of C5- C7 compounds, that are composed of C=C bond with normal or mono- branched chains. The reduction of gasoline olefin content could be achieved by decreasing the content of above-mentioned olefins. Lower reaction temperature, lower weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) and higher catalyst to oil ratio would help to reduce the content of olefins with a C = C double bond, normal olefins, mono-branched-chain olefins and diolefins. To decrease the loss of gasoline octane number, the operation for olefin reduction should be firstly focused on increasing the catalyst to oil ratio.展开更多

Different from optimization of product quality or calculation of generic energy conservation in most previous studies, the application of exergy analysis and exergy cost optimization in petrochemical industry is of great economic and environmental significance. Based on the main fractionator in Jiujiang Petrochemical Complex No. 2 FCCU, an enhanced exergy cost optimization under different operating conditions by adjusting set points of temperature and valves opening degree for flow control is studied in this paper in order to reduce exergy cost and improve the quality of energy. A steadystate optimization algorithm to enhance exergy availability and an objective function comprehensively considering exergy loss are proposed. On the basis of ensuring the quality of petroleum products, the economic benefits can be improved by optimizing the controllable variables due to the fact that exergy cost is decreased.展开更多

This kind of powder was produced by liquid-phase precipitation method with the template agent of polyallylamine hydrochloride (PAH). In this study, the effects of the polymer concentration, pH value, and stirring speed on the agglomeration phe- nomenon of cerium carbonate were investigated. On the condition that the concentration of PAH is 0.9 g·L^-1, the pH value of the adjusting solution is 3-4, the final pH value is 8-10, and the stirring speed is 300-400 r·min^-1, it is found that the agglomeration phenomenon of Ce2(CO3)3 particles can be greatly prevented and the regular petal- shaped particles are formed.展开更多

This paper presents the results of investigation by computer software of the overvoltages resulting from a ferroresonance conditions in MV networks at open phase operating condition with and without connection to earth on source and load sides of distribution transformer. This overvoltage may reach 4.2 pu on one of the HV side of transformer unswitched phases. The results of the study show that ferroresonance overvoltage may be controlled by replacing fuses with circuit breakers on HV side to ensure switching-off all phases. Insertion of resistor or reactor in the neutral of source and loadsides of the transformer with 5% active load will help in suppressing overvoltages.展开更多

Bearings operate under variable service conditions, and their diagnostic environments are complex and dynamic. In the process of bearing diagnosis, fault datasets are relatively scarce compared with datasets representing normal operating conditions. These challenges frequently cause the practicality of fault detection to decline, the extraction of fault features to be incomplete, and the diagnostic accuracy of many existing models to decrease. In this work, a transfer-learning framework, designated DSCNN-HA-TL, is introduced to address the enduring challenge of cross-condition diagnosis in rolling-bearing fault detection. The framework integrates a window global mixed attention mechanism with a deep separable convolutional network, thereby enabling adaptation to fault detection tasks under diverse operating conditions. First, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is employed as the foundational architecture, where the original convolutional layers are enhanced through the incorporation of depthwise separable convolutions, resulting in a Depthwise Separable Convolutional Neural Network (DSCNN) architecture. Subsequently, the extraction of fault characteristics is further refined through a dual-branch network that integrates hybrid attention mechanisms, specifically windowed and global attention mechanisms. This approach enables the acquisition of multi-level feature fusion information, thereby enhancing the accuracy of fault classification. The integration of these features not only optimizes the characteristic extraction process but also yields improvements in accuracy, representational capacity, and robustness in fault feature recognition. In conclusion, the proposed method achieved average precisions of 99.93% and 99.55% in transfer learning tasks, as demonstrated by the experimental results obtained from the CWRU public dataset and the bearing fault detection platform dataset. The experimental findings further provided a detailed comparison between the diagnostic models before and after the enhancement, thereby substantiating the pronounced advantages of the DSCNN-HA-TL approach in accurately identifying faults in critical mechanical components under diverse operating conditions.展开更多

Olefins in the FCC gasoline consist mainly of C5- C7 compounds, that are composed of C=C bond with normal or mono- branched chains. The reduction of gasoline olefin content could be achieved by decreasing the content of above-mentioned olefins. Lower reaction temperature, lower weight hourly space velocity (WHSV) and higher catalyst to oil ratio would help to reduce the content of olefins with a C = C double bond, normal olefins, mono-branched-chain olefins and diolefins. To decrease the loss of gasoline octane number, the operation for olefin reduction should be firstly focused on increasing the catalyst to oil ratio.

文摘Exergy indicates the maximal energy that can do work effectively. Different from optimization of product quality or calculation of generic energy conservation in most previous studies, the application of exergy analysis and exergy cost optimization in petrochemical industry is of great economic and environmental significance. Based on the main fractionator in Jiujiang Petrochemical Complex No. 2 FCCU, an enhanced exergy cost optimization under different operating conditions by adjusting set points of temperature and valves opening degree for flow control is studied in this paper in order to reduce exergy cost and improve the quality of energy. A steadystate optimization algorithm to enhance exergy availability and an objective function comprehensively considering exergy loss are proposed. On the basis of ensuring the quality of petroleum products, the economic benefits can be improved by optimizing the controllable variables due to the fact that exergy cost is decreased.

文摘Agglomeration phenomenon can often be observed during the fabrication process of petal-shaped, nano-sized Ce2(CO3)3 powders. This kind of powder was produced by liquid-phase precipitation method with the template agent of polyallylamine hydrochloride (PAH). In this study, the effects of the polymer concentration, pH value, and stirring speed on the agglomeration phe- nomenon of cerium carbonate were investigated. On the condition that the concentration of PAH is 0.9 g·L^-1, the pH value of the adjusting solution is 3-4, the final pH value is 8-10, and the stirring speed is 300-400 r·min^-1, it is found that the agglomeration phenomenon of Ce2(CO3)3 particles can be greatly prevented and the regular petal- shaped particles are formed.

文摘The fault detection and diagnosis of diesel engine valve clearance can effectively improve the availability and safety of diesel engine and have extremely important value and significance.Diesel engines generally operate in various stable operating conditions,which have important influence on the fault diagnosis.However,many fault diagnosis methods have been put forward under specific stable operating condition based on vibration signal.As the result of great impact caused by operating conditions,corresponding diagnosis models cannot deal with the fault diagnosis under different operating conditions with required accuracy.In this paper,a fault diagnosis of diesel engine valve clearance under variable operating condition based on soft interval support vector machine(SVM)is proposed.Firstly,the fault features with weak condition sensitivity have been extracted according to the influence analysis of fault on vibration signal.Moreover,soft interval constraint has been applied to SVM algorithm to reduce the random influence of vibration signal on fault features.In addition,different machine learning algorithms based on different feature sets are adopted to conduct the fault diagnosis under different operating conditions for comparison.Experimental results show that the proposed method is applicable for fault diagnosis under variable operating condition with good accuracy.
文摘The reliability of electric supply to consumers is one of the most important factors that determine the requirements imposed on modem utility companies. This paper presents the results of investigation by computer software of the overvoltages resulting from a ferroresonance conditions in MV networks at open phase operating condition with and without connection to earth on source and load sides of distribution transformer. This overvoltage may reach 4.2 pu on one of the HV side of transformer unswitched phases. The results of the study show that ferroresonance overvoltage may be controlled by replacing fuses with circuit breakers on HV side to ensure switching-off all phases. Insertion of resistor or reactor in the neutral of source and loadsides of the transformer with 5% active load will help in suppressing overvoltages.

文摘From the perspective of facilitating the design of fluidized hydrogen reduction reactors for iron ore powder and maintaining stable operation,the operational conditions and bubble behavior in stable state fluidization of multi-particle size systems were investigated through cold-state experiments.To facilitate the identification of bubble behavior,a two-dimensional bubbling bed cold-state experiment was carried out using iron ore powder with a narrow particle size distribution and glass beads.Initially,the multi-stage fluidization characteristics of iron ore powder were examined.Then,using Geldart B-type glass beads to simulate a multi-particle size composition system,the particle size range and superficial gas velocity range for stable operation of the multi-particle composition system were explored.When the mass percentage of 150-μm glass beads was 15%,the stable fluidization operational gas velocity range was found to be(1.05-1.21)umf,where umf is the minimum fluidization velocity;when the content was 20%,the stable fluidized superficial gas velocity range was(1.09-1.26)umf.Under stable fluidization operating conditions,the dynamic behavior of bubbles(average equivalent diameter,rising velocity,and lateral migration velocity)was studied,and the quantitative relationship between the average equivalent diameter of bubbles and bed height in multi-particle size systems under stable fluidization conditions was also corrected.Additionally,the correlation between bubble rising velocity and bubble average equivalent diameter was established.

文摘Effective fault identification is crucial for bearings, which are critical components of mechanical systems and play a pivotal role in ensuring overall safety and operational efficiency. Bearings operate under variable service conditions, and their diagnostic environments are complex and dynamic. In the process of bearing diagnosis, fault datasets are relatively scarce compared with datasets representing normal operating conditions. These challenges frequently cause the practicality of fault detection to decline, the extraction of fault features to be incomplete, and the diagnostic accuracy of many existing models to decrease. In this work, a transfer-learning framework, designated DSCNN-HA-TL, is introduced to address the enduring challenge of cross-condition diagnosis in rolling-bearing fault detection. The framework integrates a window global mixed attention mechanism with a deep separable convolutional network, thereby enabling adaptation to fault detection tasks under diverse operating conditions. First, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is employed as the foundational architecture, where the original convolutional layers are enhanced through the incorporation of depthwise separable convolutions, resulting in a Depthwise Separable Convolutional Neural Network (DSCNN) architecture. Subsequently, the extraction of fault characteristics is further refined through a dual-branch network that integrates hybrid attention mechanisms, specifically windowed and global attention mechanisms. This approach enables the acquisition of multi-level feature fusion information, thereby enhancing the accuracy of fault classification. The integration of these features not only optimizes the characteristic extraction process but also yields improvements in accuracy, representational capacity, and robustness in fault feature recognition. In conclusion, the proposed method achieved average precisions of 99.93% and 99.55% in transfer learning tasks, as demonstrated by the experimental results obtained from the CWRU public dataset and the bearing fault detection platform dataset. The experimental findings further provided a detailed comparison between the diagnostic models before and after the enhancement, thereby substantiating the pronounced advantages of the DSCNN-HA-TL approach in accurately identifying faults in critical mechanical components under diverse operating conditions.

文摘Predicting NO_(x)in the sintering process of iron ore powder in advance was helpful to adjust the denitrification process in time.Taking NO_(x)in the sintering process of iron ore powder as the object,the boxplot,empirical mode decomposition algorithm,Pearson correlation coefficient,maximum information coefficient and other methods were used to preprocess the sintering data and naive Bayes classification algorithm was used to identify the sintering conditions.The regression prediction model with high accuracy and good stability was selected as the sub-model for different sintering conditions,and the sub-models were combined into an integrated prediction model.Based on actual operational data,the approach proved the superiority and effectiveness of the developed model in predicting NO_(x),yielding an accuracy of 96.17%and an absolute error of 5.56,and thereby providing valuable foresight for on-site sintering operations.

文摘The influences of reaction temperature,duration,pressure,and catalyst concentration on the molecular transformation of residual slurry phase hydrocracking process were investigated.The molecular composition of the heteroatom compounds in the residue feedstock and its upgrading products were characterized using high-resolution Orbitrap mass spectrometry coupled with multiple ionization methods.The simultaneous promotion of cracking and hydrogenation reactions was observed with increasing of the reaction temperature and time.Specifically,there was a significant increase in the cracking degree of alkyl side chain,while the removal of low-condensation sulfur compounds such as sulfides and benzothiophenes was enhanced.In particular,the cracking reactions were more significantly facilitated by high temperatures,while an appropriately extended reaction time can result in the complete elimination of the aforementioned sulfur compounds with a lower degree of condensation.Under conditions of low hydrogen pressure and catalyst concentration,the products still exhibit a high relative abundance of easily convertible compounds such as sulfoxides,indicating a significant deficiency in the effectiveness of hydrogenation.The hydrogen pressure exhibits an optimal value,beyond which further increments have no effect on the composition and performance of the liquid product but can increase the yield of the liquid product.At significantly high catalyst concentration,the effect of desulfurization and deoxidation slightly diminishes,while the aromatic saturation of highly condensed compounds was notably enhanced.This hydrogenation saturation effect cannot be attained through manipulation of other operational parameters,thereby potentially benefiting subsequent product processing and utilization.This present study demonstrates a profound comprehension of the molecular-level residue slurry phase hydrocracking process,offering not only specific guide for process design and optimization but also valuable fundamental data for constructing reaction models at the molecular level.

文摘The water content of proton exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFCs)affects the transport of reactants and the conductivity of the membrane.Effective water management measures can improve the performance and extend the lifespan of the fuel cell.The water management state of the stack is influenced by various external operating conditions,and optimizing the combination of these conditions can improve the water management state within the stack.Considering that the stack's internal resistance can reflect its water management state,this study first establishes an internal resistance-operating condition model that considers the coupling effect of temperature and humidity to determine the variation trend of total resistance and stack humidity with single-factor operating conditions.Subsequently,the water management state optimization method based on the ANN-HGPSO algorithm is proposed,which not only quantitatively evaluates the influence weights of different operating conditions on the stack's internal resistance but also efficiently and accurately obtains the optimal combination of five operating conditions:working temperature,anode gas pressure,cathode gas pressure,anode gas humidity,and cathode gas humidity to achieve the optimal water management state in the stack,within the entire range of current densities.Finally,the response surface experimental results of the stack also validate the effectiveness and accuracy of the ANN-HGPSO algorithm.The method mentioned in this article can provide effective strategies for efficient water management and output performance optimization control of PEMFC stacks.

文摘The thermal management of battery systems is critical for maintaining the energy storage capacity,life span,and thermal safety of batteries used in electric vehicles,because the operating temperature is a key factor affecting battery performance.Excessive temperature rises and large temperature differences accelerate the degradation rate of such batteries.Currently,the increasing demand for fast charging and special on-vehicle scenarios has increased the heat dissipation requirements of battery thermal management systems.To address this demand,this work proposes a novel micro heat pipe array(MHPA)for thermal management under a broadened research scope,including high heat generation rates,large tilt angles,mild vibration,and distributed heat generation conditions.The experimental results indicate that the temperature difference is maintained 3.44°C at a large heat generation of 50 W for a limited range of tilt angles.Furthermore,a mild vehicle vibra-tion condition was found to improve temperature uniformity by 3.3°C at a heat generation of 10 W.However,the use of distributed heat sources results in a temperature variation of 3.88°C,suggesting that the heat generation distribution needs to be considered in thermal analyses.Understanding the effects of these special battery-operating conditions on the MHPA could significantly contribute to the enhancement of heat transfer capability and temperature uniformity improvement of battery thermal management systems based on heat pipe technologies.This would facilitate the realization of meeting the higher requirements of future battery systems.

文摘The effects of operating conditions and pre-densification on the torrefaction performance parameters and the properties of the torrefied sorghum straw were studied.A full-factor experiment was performed on a fixed tube furnace,in which sorghum straw powder and pellets were heated to 230℃,260℃,280℃ and 300℃ at 2.5℃/min,5℃/min and 7.5℃/min,respectively.The pyrolysis characteristics of the sorghum straw torrefied under various operating conditions were complemented by thermogravimetric analysis.It was observed that the high temperature led to the high calorific value of the torrefied sorghum straw with an acceptable mass and energy yield.The sorghum straw torrefied at a temperature above 280℃ had a higher heating value(HHV)that was comparable to that of the low rank coal while maintaining its energy yield above 85%.The results suggested that temperature was an important factor determining the properties of the torrefied products,and the heating rate would affect the internal temperature of the torrefied biomass by affecting the heat transfer during the torrefaction.The energy densification index of the pellets decreased uniformly as the heating rate increased proportionally,indicating that pre-densification can be used as a potential method to solve the heat transfer delay in the fixed reactors at high heating rates,especially for high temperatures.

文摘The operating conditions greatly affect the electrolysis performance and temperature distribution of solid oxide electrolysis cells(SOECs).However,the temperature distribution in a cell is hard to determine by experiments due to the limitations of in-situ measurement methods.In this study,an electrochemical-flow-thermal coupling numerical cell model is established and verified by both current-voltage curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS)results.The electrolysis performance and temperature distribution under different working conditions are numerically analyzed,including operating temperature,steam and hydrogen partial pressures in the fuel gas,inlet flow rate and inlet temperature of fuel gas.The results show that the electrolysis performance improves with increasing operating temperature.Increasing steam partial pressure improves electrolysis performance and temperature distribution uniformity,but decreases steam conversion rate.An inappropriately low hydrogen partial pressure reduces the diffusion ability of fuel gas mixture and increases concentration impedance.Although increasing the flow rate of fuel gas improves electrolysis performance,it also reduces temperature distribution uniformity.A lower airflow rate benefits temperature distribution uniformity.The inlet temperature of fuel gas has little influence on electrolysis performance.In order to obtain a more uniform temperature distribution,it is more important to preheat the air than the fuel gas.
文摘Unbalanced operating condition in a power system can cause partial overloading of the generators in the network,a condition where one or two of the three phases of the generator become overloaded even if the total 3-phase power output of the generator is within its specified limit.Partial overloading of generators beyond certain limits is undesirable and must be avoided.Distribution systems are often subjected to highly unbalanced operating conditions.Introduction of distributed generations(DGs),therefore,has rendered today’s distribution systems quite susceptible to this problem.Mitigation of this problem requires the issue to be addressed properly during analysis,operation and planning of such systems.Analysis,operation and planning of power networks under unbalanced operating condition require 3-phase load flow study.The existing methods of 3-phase load flow are not equipped to take into account any limit on the loadings of the individual phases of the generators.In the present work,a methodology based on NewtonRaphson(N-R)3-phase load flow with necessary modifications is proposed.The proposed methodology is able to determine the safe loading limits of the generators,and,can be adopted for operation and planning of power networks under unbalanced operating conditions to overcome the above difficulties.Test results on IEEE-37 bus feeder network are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
