Title: Analysis on nonlinear factors of doubly fed wind turbine generator system based on double PWM coordinated control
Authors: ZHANG Hao, YE Yuguang, SHAO Guoqing
PP: 1525-1530
Abstract: Based on a variable speed constant frequency doubly fed wind turbine generator model, which is controlled by double pulse-width modulation (PWM) converter, a comparative analysis on a doubly fed induction generator’s mathematical model under three-phase static coordinate system and two-phase synchronization reference frame was carried out in this paper. It pointed out the nonlinear factors which exist in the variable speed constant frequency wind generator, and found that the nonlinear factors can be obviously decreased by coordinate transformation. Further more, by an analysis on a mainstream control scheme of AC-excited power supply for the wind turbine generator, it pointed out that the nonlinear factors which exist in doubly fed wind turbine generator can’t be completely solved by using vector control system’s linear control theory. Finally, some nonlinear decoupling control strategies were discussed and the method for further optimization of variable speed constant frequency doubly fed wind power generator system’s function was pointed out.

Title: Hydrogen production by steam reforming of methanol in a reactor with comby fractal micro-channel network
Authors: SHEN Yinqi, DU Xiaoze, YANG Lijun
PP: 1515-1524
Abstract: According to the catalytic reaction of methanol steam reforming in a micro-channel reactor, a steady-state multi-component transport reaction model in the form of three-dimension was established. By numerical simulations, the reactions in rectangular parallel micro-channels and in comby fractal micro-channel network with catalyst Zn_Cr/CeO2/ZrO2 were studied. Based on the dual-rate model, the effect of the operating condition on the transport law of methanol steam reforming in these micro-channels was investigated, which reflected that these two micro-channels were conducive to the increase of the methanol conversion and the hydrogen production. Meanwhile, compared to the rectangular parallel micro-channels, comby fractal micro-channel network possesses several advantages. For example, its required pump power is much smaller. And under the same heating area, it is able to absorb more heat. Also, comby fractal micro-channel is more conducive to the uniformity of temperature distribution, in turn enhancing methanol conversion and reducing CO. Therefore, it is an ideal channel for hydrogen production in proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC).

PP: 1509-1514
Abstract: An improved flat-plate type capillary pumped loop (CPL) system is proposed, fabricated and tested in this paper, which aims to eliminate the influence of non-condensed gas (NCG) on system operation. And the qualitative analysis of the influence of NCG on system is conducted. A series of startup and operation capability experiments are carried out under gravity assisted and non-gravity assisted conditions. The experiment results show that, under the gravity assisted condition, CPL could start up smoothly when heat load is in the range of 100 W to 800 W (heat flux up to 2.05 W/cm2); under the non-gravity assisted condition, CPL could start up smoothly when heat load is in the range of 100 W to 500 W (heat flux up to 1.28 W/cm2). The results of operation capability experiments show that the CPL system has the capability of well bearing mutative heat load. The effects of the reservoir set temperature and gravity are also studied in this paper.

Title: A silicon wafer optical prealignment method based on shape center method
Authors: LIU Renqiang, LIU Pinkuan, HUANG Chunxia
PP: 1469-1475
Abstract: A wafer prealignment method is designed based on shape center measurement method. The wafer’s shape center is measured by laser displacement sensor from wafer’s radial direction, and the orientation of wafer is measured by notch angle detection using photoelectric laser sensor that detects the position of the wafer’s periphery as a rotation stage rotates. Dynamic error compensation method is applied to eliminate the radial runout effect using two inductance sensor measure the rotation stage’s rotation center. The wafer’s desired position and orientation is obtained from two steps: firstly, coarse alignment is made by adjusting the wafer’s shape center to be concentric with rotation stage’s rotation center and notch angle point to desires orientation, then precise measurement and adjustment is made on the wafer’s notch angle. The experimentation has proved that the use of the runout compensation method has improved the prealignment precision of notch angle orientation to 30 micradians and wafer center to 1 micron.

Title: Research on the application of thermodynamic theory in cutting system
Authors: WAN Yi, SHAO Fang
PP: 1448-1454
Abstract: Thermodynamic system of cutting was developed with non-equilibrium thermodynamic theory based on local equilibrium hypothesis and conservation equation. In this system, non-equilibrium processes include heat conduction, diffusion, adherence, viscosity plastic flow and chemical reaction. Entropy flow and entropy generation were employed to describe the change in those non-equilibrium processes. Furthermore, interactions among sub-processes were studied with non-equilibrium thermodynamic theory and Curie principle. The results indicate that there is no coupling among sub-processes, while influences still exist through changes of system structure and elements.
