改进蚁群PID-神经元解耦的CFB锅炉燃烧系统控制

床温和主汽压都是循环流化床锅炉生产运行中的重要参数,会直接影响机组的安全性和经济性。但由于这两者对象存在非线性、大时延、强耦合等特点,其现场控制效果一直不太理想。本文首先采用自适应神经元将床温和主汽压解耦,再利用具有分工特征的蚁群算法优化参数的PID控制器对两者进行独立控制。采用该算法优化常规PID控制参数,能够实现控制参数的快速寻优。该方案应用于循环流化床锅炉燃烧系统仿真,结果表明能有效实现系统解耦,且具有响应快、超调量小等优点,有效地提高了控制品质。

Porous surfur-doped hard carbon for excellent potassium storage

Hard carbon is promising anode for potassium-ion batteries(PIBs),however,the poor rate capability hinders its development as potential anode.To address this question,we design a sulfur-doped porous hard carbon(S-HC)for PIBs through the combination of structural design and composition adjustment.The as-designed S-HC exhibits a long cycling life with^191 mAh/g after 300 cycles at 1 A/g,and an excellent rate capability with^100 mAh/g at 5 A/g,which was attributed to its structural characteristics and compositions.The S-HC demonstrates to be promising anode in the future.     

Facile synthesis of palladium nanoparticles supported on urea-based porous organic polymers and its catalytic properties in Suzuki-Miyaura coupling

By using urea linked porous organic polymers as template, a new nano palladium catalyst with low Pd loading can be easily prepared (1.0 wt% Pd only). Although such less amount of Pd was contained in this new catalyst, it is still an effective catalyst for the Suzuki-Miyaura coupling of aryl iodines and aryl boric acids, affording biphenyl products in excellent yields with outstandingly enhanced turnover numbers (up to 10,536) under green solvent (water).     

ZIF‐8‐Nanocrystalline Zirconosilicate Integrated Porous Material for the Activation and Utilization of CO2 in Insertion Reactions

The conversion of CO₂ to useful chemicals, especially to atom economical products, is the best approach to utilize an excess of CO₂ present in the atmosphere. In this study, a metal‐organic framework (ZIF‐8) is integrated with nanocrystalline zirconosilicate zeolite to develop an integrated porous catalyst for CO₂ insertion reactions. The catalyst exhibits excellent activity for the CO₂ insertion reaction of epoxide to produce cyclic carbonate in neat condition without the addition of any co‐catalyst. The catalyst is stable and recyclable during the cyclic carbonate synthesis. Further, the catalyst also exhibits very good activity in another CO₂ insertion reaction to produce quinazoline‐2,4(1H, 3H)‐dione.     

Di-block copolymer stabilized methyl methacrylate based polyHIPEs: Influence of hydrophilic and hydrophobic co-monomers on morphology,wettability and thermal properties

Due to intermediate hydrophobicity of methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer in water, it is difficult to prepare its stable water in oil high internal phase emulsion (HIPE). Moreover, the addition of fully hydrophilic co-monomer such as 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA) in MMA monomer makes it further troublesome to stabilize these emulsions. This paper addresses the preparation of such type of difficult to prepare emulsions via addition of an amphiphilic fluorinated di-block copolymer (FDB), poly(2-dimethylamino)ethylmethacrylate-b-poly(trifluoroethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA-b-PTFEMA) as stabilizer. Interestingly, HEMA and/or HFBA (hexa fluorobutyl acrylate) as co-monomers were successfully added to impart some special properties such as thermodynamic stability, desired amphiphilicity to the final polyHIPEs. Fluorinated blocks in FDB anchored well at oil/water interface of HIPE, offering enough hydrophobicity to the comparatively hydrophilic monomers and in turn providing resistance against coalescence. MMA polyHIPEs were found to be fully hydrophobic just by replacing HEMA co-monomer with HFBA. Due to superb inherent hydrophobic nature of fluorine atoms, MMA-HFBA polyHIPEs showed remarkable water contact angle of 139°. Furthermore, the addition of fluorinated co-monomer in MMA based HIPEs significantly improved thermal stabilities of these materials with improvement in degradation temperature from 305 °C to 360 °C.     

Effect of Gaussian size distribution width on minimum fluidization velocity in tapered gas–solid fluidized beds

This paper investigated the effect of Gaussian distribution width, average particle diameter, particle loading, and the tapered angle on minimum fluidization velocity (U_mf) by conducting extensive experiments in tapered fluidized beds. Three powders with Gaussian size distribution and different distribution widths were used in the experiments. An increase in U_mf with increasing the average particle diameter, particle loading, and the tapered angle was observed. There was also a nonmonotonic behavior of U_mf as the Gaussian distribution width increased. An empirical correlation including dimensionless groups for predicting U_mf in tapered beds was developed in which the effect of distribution width was considered. The proposed correlation predictions were in good agreement with the experimental data, with a maximum deviation of 16.5% and average and standard deviations of, respectively, 6.4% and 7.4%. The proposed correlation was also compared with three earlier models, and their accuracy was discussed.     

Experimental investigation on the distribution uniformity and pressure drop of perforated plate distributors for the innovative spray-type packed bed thermal storage

As an innovative thermal energy technology, the spray-type packed bed has advantages of high efficiency and low cost. A liquid distributor is the key component for the spray-type packed bed for scattering heat-transfer liquid drops evenly. In this study, the distribution performance and pressure drop of the perforated plate distributors of different orifice diameters were studied experimentally. The experimental results indicate that orifice diameter has a greater effect on the distribution performance compared to flow rate. With an increase in flow rate, the flow pattern through the distributor changes from the uncovered drop to the covered drop and then to the jet flow. The covered drop pattern shows the best performance with a good distribution and a small pressure drop simultaneously, which is the design and optimization principle of the distributor for a spray-type packed bed.     

Numerical investigation on cold flow dynamics of supercritical water fluidized bed reactor with inclined distributor: Design and scale up

Supercritical water fluidized bed reactor (SCWFBR) is a novel concept for the gasification of coal and biomass to produce hydrogen. In this work, to enhance the mixing in the axial direction, an inclined distributor is introduced to optimize the flow dynamics in SCWFBR with partitioned fluid supply. Through numerical simulations based on the two fluid model (TFM), the effects of the inclined distributor structure and operating parameters on the solid distribution and the residence time are evaluated with the optimal values determined. Numerical results show that, area ratio = 2:1, SCW velocity ratio = 3:1, flow ratio = 3.36:1 and inclination angle = 20° are the optimal design in this paper. A predictive correlation of the minimum fluidization velocity for the improved SCWFBR is also proposed based on the numerical data. The average error between the correlation and numerical simulation results is approximately 1.4% which strongly demonstrates its capability. Finally, based on the optimal design, the lab-scale reactor is further scaled up and the studies about two scale-up rules are carried out. Only the cold flow is simulated in this study without considering chemical reaction which would be involved in future work.     

Theoretical investigation on submicron particle penetration through circular tubes inside a porous medium

The analytical infinite series solution of submicron particle transport in a circular tube bounded by a porous wall, such as a pinhole, is determined under the slip velocity boundary condition, and the solution is verified by using the experimental data in the previous studies for the specific cases. The results show that particle penetration rate increases with the increase of the porous parameter, the axial pressure drop, and the pinhole radius, whereas it decreases with increasing the pinhole length. The penetration rate of nano-particles are more sensitive to the variation of these parameters. However, the differences between the penetrations of particles ranging from 0.3 μm to 1 μm are not evident because the diffusion becomes weak gradually in this size range. In addition, a further comparison is performed between the analytical solution and the existing studies, and approximate expressions are presented for accurate calculation of particle penetration rate through pinholes appearing in porous materials including filter devices and masks.
