For a three-phase zero-voltage soft-switching （ZVS） PWM converter based on phase and amplitude control （PAC）, when saw-tooth carriers with alternate positive and negative slopes are adopted, the positive or negative slopes are chosen according to the phase current polarity. Since polarity reversal causes current distortion, current at the instant of reversal should be compensated for. Based on the characteristic of unity power factor converter in rectification and regeneration modes, a software implementation for current polarity detection is proposed. Distortion of current zero-crossing caused by using saw-tooth carriers with alternate positive and negative slopes is analyzed, and the relevant compensation method is proposed. Experimental study with a 1.5 kW device shows that phase current has a small harmonic content and power factor is high both in rectification and regeneration modes.展开更多

文摘A novel software implementation for current polarity detection and current compensation is presented. For a three-phase zero-voltage soft-switching （ZVS） PWM converter based on phase and amplitude control （PAC）, when saw-tooth carriers with alternate positive and negative slopes are adopted, the positive or negative slopes are chosen according to the phase current polarity. Since polarity reversal causes current distortion, current at the instant of reversal should be compensated for.

Distortion of current zero-crossing caused by using saw-tooth carriers with alternate positive and negative slopes is analyzed, and the relevant compensation method is proposed. Experimental study with a 1.5 kW device shows that phase current has a small harmonic content and power factor is high both in rectification and regeneration modes.

文摘Low-density short-duration pulsed current-assisted aging treatment was applied to the Ti-6Al-4V-0.5Mo-0.5Zr alloy subjected to different solution treatments.The results show that numerous α_(p) phases redissolve into the new β phase during the pulsed current-assisted aging process,and then the newly formed β phase is mainly transformed into the β_(t) phase,with occasional transition to new α_(p) phase,leading to a remarkable grain refinement,especially for the lamellarαs phases.In comparison to conventional aging treatment,the pulsed current-assisted aging approach achieves a significant enhancement in strength without degrading ductility,yielding an excellent mechanical property combination:a yield strength of 932 MPa,a tensile strength of 1042 MPa,and an elongation of 12.2%.It is primarily ascribed to the increased fraction of β_(t) phases,the obvious grain refinement effect,and the slip block effect induced by the multiple-variantαs colonies distributed within β_(t) phases.

文摘The dual three-phase PMSM(DTP-PMSM)drives have received wide attention at high-power high-efficiency applications due to their merits of high output current ability and copper-loss-free field excitation.Meanwhile,the DTPPMSM drive provides higher fault-tolerant capability for highreliability applications,e.g.,pumps and actuators in aircraft.For high-power drives with limited switching frequencies and highspeed drives with large fundamental frequencies,the ratio of switching frequency to fundamental frequency,i.e.,the carrier ratio,is usually below 15,which would significantly degrade the control performance.The purpose of this paper is to review the recent work on the modulation and control schemes for improving the operation performance of DTP-PMSM drives with low carrier ratios.Specifically,three categories of methods,i.e.,the space vector modulation based control,the model predictive control(MPC),and the optimized pulse pattern(OPP)based control are reviewed with principles and performance.In addition,brief discussions regarding the comparison and future trends are presented for low-carrier-ratio(LCR)modulation and control schemes of DTP-PMSM drives.

文摘In contrast to the concurrent mixer-settler,the interaction between the mixing and settling chambers have to be taken into account in the simulation of the countercurrent mixer-settler,and no work has been reported for this equipment.In this work,a three-phase flow model based on the Eulerian multiphase model,coupled with a sliding mesh model is proposed for a countercurrent mixer-settler.Based on this,the dispersed phase distribution,flow pattern,and pressure distribution are investigated,which can help to fill the gap in the operation mechanism.In addition,the velocity vector distribution at the phase port shows an intriguing phenomenon that two types of vectors with opposite directions are distributed on the left and right sides of the same plane,which indicates that the material exchange in the mixing and settling chambers is simultaneous.Analysis of this variation at this location by a fast Fourier transform(FFT)method reveals that it is mainly influenced by the mixing chamber and is consistent with the main period of the outlet flow fluctuations.Therefore,by monitoring the fluctuation of the outlet flow and then analyzing it by the FFT method,the state of the whole tank can be determined,which makes it promising for the design of control systems for countercurrent mixer-settlers.

文摘Energy density and safety are two crucial parameters when evaluating lithium-metal batteries(LMBs).Herein,we present an ultralight polymer-based current collector,incorporating flame-retardant materials,designed specifically for thin lithium-metal anodes.Compared to the traditional copper current collector(8.96 mg cm^(-2),10μm thick),the polymer-based current collector(12μm thick)has a significantly lower areal density of 1.41 mg cm^(-2),i.e.,only one-sixth of the copper collector,thus enabling substantially higher energy densities.Accordingly,when employed in Li||NMC_(622)full-cells,the polymer-based current collector enables a specific energy of 449 Wh kg^(-1),representing a notable improvement of about14.5%compared to cells employing a classic copper current collector.The inclusion of Al(OH)_(3) as a flame retardant into the current collector suppresses flammability and,thereby,significantly improves the safety of the resulting LMBs.
文摘With the advent of the big data era,modern statistics has enjoyed unprecedented development opportunities and also faced numerous new challenges.Traditional statistical computing methods are often limited by issues such as computer memory capacity and distributed storage of data across different locations,and are unable to directly apply to large-scale data sets.Therefore,in the context of big data,designing efficient and theoretically guaranteed statistical learning and inference algorithms has become a key issue that the current field of statistics urgently needs to address.In this paper,the application status of statistical analysis methods in the big data environment was systematically reviewed,and its future development directions were analyzed to provide reference and support for the further development of theory and methods of the statistical analysis of big data.

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Lithium metal batteries(LMBs)are promising candidates for next-generation high-energy-density storage devices.However,an unstable lithium metal anode poses significant issues that critically compromise battery safety and cycle life,including lithium dendrite formation,solid electrolyte interphase degradation,dead lithium accumulation,and substantial volume fluctuations during cycling.These problems can be addressed by regulating lithium deposition and suppressing side reactions through the modification of copper current collectors using three classes of materials:metal and metal oxide,carbon,and polymer materials.This review comprehensively examines recent advances in the application of these materials as current collector coatings.Particularly,their distinct roles in the lithium deposition process are analyzed to understand how they mitigate the issues associated with the lithium metal anode.Furthermore,their inherent limitations are considered to inform future research directions.While each class of materials offers specific advantages,multifunctionality is required to effectively regulate lithium deposition.In prospect,a novel composite copper current collector design that integrates the merits of the aforementioned advanced materials is proposed.The insights from this review provide valuable guidance for the rational design of modified copper current collectors,which would significantly improve the safety and cycle life of LMBs and advance their commercialization.
