Furthermore, it can damage the safe and reliable run of the network. We first introduce a three-phase five-column arc suppression coil (TPFCASC) and discuss its autotracking compensation theory. Then we compare the single phase to ground fault of the coal mine distribution network with an open phase fault at the TPFCASC using the Thévenin theory, the symmetrical-component method and the complex sequence network respectively. The results show that, in both types of faults, zero-sequence voltage of the network will appear and the maximum magnitude of this zero-sequence voltage is different in both faults. Based on this situation, a protection for the open phase fault at the TPFCASC should be estab-lished.展开更多

Two covariates were used and a case where the observational errors were in both the survey variable and the covariates was considered. The inclusion of observational errors was due to the fact that data collected through surveys are often not free from errors that occur during observation. These errors can occur due to over-reporting, under-reporting, memory failure by the respondents or use of imprecise tools of data collection. The expression of mean squared error (MSE) based on the obtained estimator has been derived to the first degree of approximation. The results of a simulation study show that the derived modified regression mean estimator under observational errors is more efficient than the mean per unit estimator and some other existing estimators. The proposed estimator can therefore be used in estimating a finite population mean, while considering observational errors that may occur during a study.展开更多

Precise control of drives is the main attribute in industries to optimize the performance and to increase its production rate. In motion control, the major considerations are the torque and speed ripples. Design of controllers has become increasingly complex to such systems for better management of energy and raw materials to attain optimal performance. Meager parameter appraisal results are unsuitable, leading to unstable operation. The rapid intensification of digital computer revolutionizes to practice precise control and allows implementation of advanced control strategy to extremely multifaceted systems. To solve complex control problems, model predictive control is an authoritative scheme, which exploits an explicit model of the process to be controlled. This paper presents a predictive control strategy by a neural network predictive controller based single phase induction motor drive to minimize the speed and torque ripples. The proposed method exhibits better performance than the conventional controller and validity of the proposed method is verified by the simulation results using MATLAB software.展开更多

Basic idea is based on knowledge of harmonic spectrum of the sources and/or appliances, respectively. Obviously, one need to know voltage harmonic components of voltage sources (renewable with inverters,...), and current harmonic components generated by non-linear appliances (rectifiers,...). Method of investigation lies on decomposition of real electric circuit into n-harmonic separated equivalent schemes for each harmonic component. Then transient analysis will be done for each scheme separately using "impedance harmonic matrices". The important fact is that each equivalent scheme is now linearized and therefore easily calculated. Finally, the effects of each investigated schemes arc summed into resulting quantities of real non-linear electric circuit.展开更多

X-ray diffraction results show that all the samples are of single phase and crystallize in wurtzite ZnO structure. The lattice parameter a increases with increasing Co content, while the parameter c has no obvious change with increasing Co. Raman spectra show that the nonpolar E2(High) mode becomes broad and weak with the doping of Co, which indicates that the incorporation of Co causes structural disorder in the crystalline columnar ZnO lattice. The photolurninescence spectra exhibit that the position of the ultraviolet emission shifts to short wavelength and the intensity decreases with increasing Co. The green emission is affected by two contrary factors. It is increased by the introduced defects, but suppressed by the interaction between Co doping and native defects and the later affects it more significantly.展开更多

Owing to its wide absorption range and remarkable thermal stability, the mixedcation perovskite FAxMA1-xPbI3(formamidinium/methylammonium lead iodide) promises high performance. However, the ratio of the mixed cations in the perovskite film has proved difficult to control with precursor solution. In addition, the FAxMA1-xPbI3 films contain a high percentage of MA+and suffer from serious phase separation and high trap states, resulting in inferior photovoltaic performance. In this study, to suppress phase separation, a post-processing method was developed to partially nucleate before annealing, by treating the as-prepared intermediate phase FAI-Pb I2-DMSO(DMSO: dimethylsulfoxide) with mixed FAI/MAI solution. It was found that in the final perovskite, FA0.92MA0.08 PbI3, defects were substantially reduced because the analogous molecular structure initiated ion exchange in the post-processed thin perovskite films, which advanced partial nucleation. As a result, the increased light harvesting and reduced trap states contributed to the enhancement of open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current. The PSCs produced by the post-processing method presented reliable reproducibility, with a maximum power conversion efficiency of 20.80% and a degradation of ~30% for 80 days in standard atmospheric conditions.展开更多

The kinetic curves for the oxidation of the two alloys are complex and deviate from the parabolic rate law. Typical double layered scales are produced, which consist of a CuO outer layer and an inner layer containing a mixture of Cu 2O and NiO with many pores. Cu 50Ni presents a small degree of internal oxidation of nickel, which is observed in many binary double phase systems, but is quite rare in single phase systems.展开更多

文摘The effect of Mo additions on the microstructures and mechanical properties of CoCrNi alloys was investigated,meanwhile,ab initio calculations are performed to quantitatively evaluate the lattice distortion and stacking fault energy(SFE).The yield strength,ultimate tensile strength,and elongation of(CoCrNi)_(97)Mo_(3)alloy are 475 MPa,983 MPa and 69%,respectively.The yield strength is increased by~30%and high ductility is maintained,in comparison with CoCrNi alloy.Besides the nano-twins and dislocations,the higher density of stacking faults is induced during the tensile deformation for(CoCrNi)_(97)Mo_(3)alloy.Ab initio calculation results indicate the mean square atomic displacement(MSAD)and SFE value of(CoCrNi)_(97)Mo_(3)alloy is 42.6 pm^(2)and-40.4 mJ/m^(2)at 0 K,respectively.The relationship between mechanical properties and MSAD,SFE for various multiple principal element alloys is discussed.

文摘Co doped ZnO nanowires with different Co contents have been fabricated by a chemical vapor deposition method. X-ray diffraction results show that all the samples are of single phase and crystallize in wurtzite ZnO structure. The lattice parameter a increases with increasing Co content, while the parameter c has no obvious change with increasing Co. Raman spectra show that the nonpolar E2(High) mode becomes broad and weak with the doping of Co, which indicates that the incorporation of Co causes structural disorder in the crystalline columnar ZnO lattice. The photolurninescence spectra exhibit that the position of the ultraviolet emission shifts to short wavelength and the intensity decreases with increasing Co. The green emission is affected by two contrary factors. It is increased by the introduced defects, but suppressed by the interaction between Co doping and native defects and the later affects it more significantly.

文摘In order to enhance the stability of single-phase microgrid,virtual synchronous generator(VSG)control method is investigated in this paper.Its electromagnetic model and electromechanical model are established to illustrate the performance of VSG.Considering the 2 nd fluctuation of fundamental-frequency in the output power,an instantaneous power calculation strategy is proposed based on the intrinsic frequency of single-phase VSG.Besides,a virtual power calculation method is presented to achieve islanded/grid-connected seamless transition.Stability analysis and comparison simulation results demonstrate the correctness of the presented power calculation method.At last,the effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified by comparison experiments of islanded/gridconnected operations in a 500 VA single-phase inverter.

文摘To date, extensive research has been carried out,with considerable success, on the development of highperformance perovskite solar cells(PSCs). Owing to its wide absorption range and remarkable thermal stability, the mixedcation perovskite FAxMA1-xPbI3(formamidinium/methylammonium lead iodide) promises high performance. However, the ratio of the mixed cations in the perovskite film has proved difficult to control with precursor solution. In addition, the FAxMA1-xPbI3 films contain a high percentage of MA+and suffer from serious phase separation and high trap states, resulting in inferior photovoltaic performance. In this study, to suppress phase separation, a post-processing method was developed to partially nucleate before annealing, by treating the as-prepared intermediate phase FAI-Pb I2-DMSO(DMSO: dimethylsulfoxide) with mixed FAI/MAI solution. It was found that in the final perovskite, FA0.92MA0.08 PbI3, defects were substantially reduced because the analogous molecular structure initiated ion exchange in the post-processed thin perovskite films, which advanced partial nucleation. As a result, the increased light harvesting and reduced trap states contributed to the enhancement of open-circuit voltage and short-circuit current. The PSCs produced by the post-processing method presented reliable reproducibility, with a maximum power conversion efficiency of 20.80% and a degradation of ~30% for 80 days in standard atmospheric conditions.
文摘The air oxidation of Cu Ni alloys with 50% and 70% nickel (mole fraction) at 800?℃ was studied. The kinetic curves for the oxidation of the two alloys are complex and deviate from the parabolic rate law. Typical double layered scales are produced, which consist of a CuO outer layer and an inner layer containing a mixture of Cu 2O and NiO with many pores. Cu 50Ni presents a small degree of internal oxidation of nickel, which is observed in many binary double phase systems, but is quite rare in single phase systems.
