Title: The corrosion behavior of new types zirconium alloys in 500℃/10.3 MPa water steam
Authors: XIONG Ji, WANG Jun,LONG Chongsheng,MIAO Zhi,FAN Hongyuan,HUANG Zhaohua,YING Shihao
PP: 1289~1294
Abstract: The corrosion behaviors of Zr- x Nb- y Cu alloys have been investigated in the steam-gas of 500℃ and 10.3 MPa by autoclave tests. The results showed that the corrosion behaviors of them were distinct. The uniform corrosions occurred on the Zr- x Nb- y Cu alloys. The Zr-1.0Nb-0.05Cu specimens have the best corrosion resistance, rather than N18 alloy. The second phase particles of uniform distribution and higher density are beneficial to improving the corrosion resistance in steam-gas. However, the composition of zirconium alloys is a more important factor with a potential possibility for improving the corrosion resistance in 500℃/10.3 MPa environment by adjusting the composition of zirconium alloys.

Title: Analysis of flow characteristics of slug bubble in stagnant and flowing liquid in vertical tube
Authors: WANG Hongyan, YAN Changqi, CAO Xiaxin, WANG Wenbo
PP: 1284~1288
Abstract: The relation between the slug flow and the general trend of pressure signal cure in stagnant liquid was explained, and the impact of the entrance pressure on the slug bubble rise velocity was analyzed. Besides, the effect of different water and gas flow rates on slug bubble rise velocity under the flowing condition was analyzed. It was found that the different entrance pressures did not affect the slug bubble speed under the stagnant condition, and the increase of slug bubble rise velocity mainly depended on the increase of the gas-liquid two-phase mixture velocity in the turbulent state. Moreover, the slug bubble rise velocity expression was given in the turbulent flow state, which fit the empirical formula well by contrasting.

Authors: LV Jianqin, ZHAO Xiaosong
PP: 1280~1283
Abstract: Nonlinear transport of intense direct-current (dc) beams in electrostatic quadrupoles was analyzed by the Lie algebraic methods, and the second-order approximate particle trajectories were obtained. Based on theoretical analysis results, a computer program was designed. In order to make the calculation results self-consistent, each element in the program was divided into pieces, and piecewise iteration was applied. As a practical example, a low energy beam transport system consisting of drift space-electrostatic quadrupole doublet-drift space was calculated. The results were tested by PIC calculation, and they agreed to each other.

Title: Safe evacuation model and calculation method of building
Authors: LI Xicai, HAO Lili, FAN Shuai, SHI Meijing, XU Xiaoyi
PP: 1275~1279
Abstract: In this paper, a model is established and calculation is performed according to width of corridor of evacuation exit, widths of entrances of staircase and its antechamber, stair flight width, stair antechamber area and so on to ensure that people can be evacuated to safe place within a certain time in fire. The safe evacuation calculation is based on the assumption that fire occurs on a floor, predicts that all the people on the floor are all evacuated to the lower floor, and checks the evacuation safety. The check step usually takes each floor as checking unit, but can also check safe evacuation of only one sub-area or simultaneous evacuation of several floors or the whole building.

Title: Experimental study on shock wave transmission law of gas explosion at turning points of pipeline
Authors: JING Guoxun, SHI Guo, JIA Zhiwei
PP: 1270~1274
Abstract: In order to study the transmission law of the air shock wave at turning points of tunnel after the gas explosion, the paper processed the experiment at different turning points with turning angles of 30 45 60 and 90 The system changed the filling length of the gas taking part in the reaction to change the initial overpressure of the shock wave, and obtained the overpressure change curve of the explosion shock wave at the different tunnel turning point angles. The results show that, with the increase of the initial overpressure, the overpressure attenuation coefficient of the shock wave increases gradually; and with the aggrandizement of the turning point angle, the overpressure attenuation coefficient of the shock wave also slightly increases. The experimental results have enriched the transmission law of the gas explosion shock wave in complex tunnel, and have positive significance to prevent and control destruction and injury function of the shock wave.

Title: Experimental study of integration of fire detection systems in a large high volume space
Authors: FANG Jun, TU Ran, MEI Zhibin, LIU Kai, ZHANG Yongming
PP: 1262~1269
Abstract: In a large volume space, several fire detection systems are arranged in multi layers with different heights to investigate the responses to standard fires under different fire situations and disturbance conditions. The experiments show that beam type and light section image smoke detectors at the different heights with the same spacing respond to the smoldering fire smoke from the lowest position to the highest position in sequence, while for flaming fire, the sequence is opposite, and light section image smoke detector responds with low missing alarms for its overlapping beams; open window ventilation has a significant effect on the heights and widths of the fire smoke plumes, which determines the location height and spacing of beam smoke detectors; aspiration smoke detectors respond to fire smoke slowly but without missing alarms; wall fire rises more quickly than center fire reducing the detection time of beam type and aspiration smoke detectors; image flame detector is more sensitive to the distance between detector and fire source than radiation energy detector. Smoke plume and detector modeling theories are introduced to interpret the experimental results.

Authors: YANG Guang, GAO Jingfeng, JIANG Dayong, MA Heng
PP: 1258~1261
Abstract: Mine ventilation experiment usually requires a large area of experimental tunnels and cooperation of many people, which is time-consuming and laborious. The teaching demonstration often can not achieve expected effect because of many problems such as instrument precision. According to similarity principle, PVC pipes were used to construct small mine model. Pressure difference sensors, wind speed sensors and air-door actuators were used to perform simulation and experiment of the mine ventilation. The host computer software was compiled with Visual Basic program. The CAN-BUS acquired simulation signals of pressure difference and wind speed and outputted air-door angle control simulation signals to perform practical monitoring and controlling. The system has advantages of low cost, small volume, simple and intuitionistic operation, and many functions.

Title: Quantitative calculation of formation water discharge in gas drilling
Authors: YAN Tie, LIU Shunli, BI Xueliang
PP: 1247~1251
Abstract: In the process of gas under-balance drilling, the problem of formation water discharge is one of the bottlenecks of this technique application. It is very important that the amount of formation water discharge is accurately calculated and the positions of formation water discharge are predicted for the implementation of under-balanced drilling. At present most of the computational methods about formation water discharge are qualitative, and some of them are so simple that they could cause probable errors. In this paper, the quantitative models of formation water discharge are established on the basis of the predecessor’s research. In these models, not only the reservoir characteristics are considered, but also the reservoir opening process is combined with the reservoir Darcy flow and non-Darcy flow. Based on this, the discrimination mode of the formation water seepage way is developed by means of parametric analysis and the filtrational characteristic of resident fluid. The critical discriminating curve is obtained for Darcy flow and non-Darcy flow and it provides the theoretical basis for the further research of solving the problem of formation water discharge. The outstanding feature of this model is to calculate the water yield with the different models according to the different filtrational characteristics. It also overcomes the defect of calculating the water yield in the single model before.

Authors: SONG Huijin, ZHENG Jiagui, FENG Lianghuan, XIA Gengpei, WANG Wenwu,HE Jianxiong, LI Yuanjie, YAN Qiang
PP: 1242~1246
Abstract: ZnTe∶Cu polycrystalline thin films prepared by vacuum co-evaporation technique were characterized by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) and X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscope (XPS). The paper studied the impact of copper-doped concentration and annealing temperatures upon structure and surface morphology of ZnTe∶Cu thin films and analyzed existing state of copper atoms. It is shown that as-deposited ZnTe films have cubic structure with highly preferential orientation of (111) while the annealed ZnTe films have hexagonal structure. The XPS analysis shows that, on the surface of annealed ZnTe∶Cu films, Te exists in forms of oxide and CuxTe. CdTe solar cell conversion efficiency and its characteristic have been improved when the ZnTe/ZnTe∶Cu back contact layers are introduced into CdTe solar cells.

Authors: SUN Zhigao, JIANG Chengming, XIE Nuolin
PP: 1239~1241
Abstract: Natural gas hydrate in nature mainly exists in sea floor. Natural gas hydrate always forms in porous sediment. A rig for the study of hydrate formation in porous media was set up. Methane hydrate formation process in porous silica gel was studied, using silica gel with average pore diameter 8.3 nm as carrier. The experimental results showed that the formation pressure (equilibrium pressure) of methane hydrate increased, but hydrate nucleation happened easily and induction time decreased greatly. Methane hydrate formation in porous silica gel included two stages where the formation speeds of methane hydrate were obviously different.

Title: Preparation and characterization of Ni-Co and Ni-Fe alloy based anodes for low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells
Authors: LANG Ying, XIE Zhen, PENG Ranran, XIA Changrong
PP: 1234~1238
Abstract: Ni0.5Co0.5 and Ni0.5Fe0.5 alloys were investigated as anodes for low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (LT-SOFCs). The alloys were formed by in situ reduction of Ni0.5Fe0.5Oy and Ni0.5Co0.5Oy composites, which were synthesized using a glycine-nitrate technique. Ni0.5Co0.5-SDC (Ce0.8Sm0.2O1.9) and Ni0.5Fe0.5-SDC supported single cells were prepared using a co-pressing and co-firing process. Interfacial polarization resistances and I-U curves of these cells were measured at 600℃. With Ni0.5Co0.5-SDC as anode, the maximum power density of the cell was about 616 mWcm-2 when humidified (3% H2O) hydrogen was used as fuel and stationary air as oxidant, while Ni0.5Fe0.5-SDC as anode, the maximum power density was only 380 mWcm-2. The interfacial resistances of the two cells were 0.121 and 0.238 Ω/cm2, respectively, which accounted for big difference in power density. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to identify the phase of Ni0.5Fe0.5Oy and Ni0.5Co0.5Oy composites sintered at 1 200℃. It was shown that the Ni0.5Fe0.5Oy consisted of NiO and NiFe2O4 composites, while Ni0.5Co0.5Oy only formed CoNiO2. The difference in the consistent of the two composites might account for the distinctness in the microstructure and then the electrochemical performance of the corresponding alloys. Alloy based cermets might be promising anodes for SOFCs.
