The surface temperature distribution and the thermal characteristic of the battery were analyzed based on the infrared images. Results indicated that the surface temperature distribution of the battery is greatly dependent on the state of charge (SOC). The endothermic peak caused by the entropy heat coefficient of the reversible reaction heat gradually disappears as the increase of the discharge rate. The negative electrode has the highest temperature during the discharge process. The temperature rise of the battery gets higher as the battery ages, that is, the total heat output of the battery increases. However, the reversible reaction heat of the battery has little change with the increase of the aging cycles. The results of thermal behaviors analysis are conducive to understand the safety management and build a reliable thermal model for high energy density lithium-ion battery.","PeriodicalId":11324,"journal":{"name":"DEStech Transactions on Environment, Energy and Earth Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78964126","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

China's National Development and Reform commission has currently ratified 100 pilot cities in five batches over 2011 to 2015 to implement food waste treatment projects. Almost the 80% of these projects is based on anaerobic digestion. So it is very important to understand clearly which is the environmental impact of these new bioenergy chains (especially in the small scale). For this reason a Life Cycle Assessment case study is presented in this work, based on a 156 kWe anaerobic digestion plant, fed with waste food produced by 29 canteens, which are present in the campus of the Huazhong University of Science and Technology (HUST). The obtained results show that, respect to the reference scenario, the presented case study has lower environmental burden in all the considered impact categories. When the waste food is compared with other feedstock to produce biogas, the only negative impact is on the eutrophication category. About 0.00084 kgPO4 3- are emitted per kWhe produced. This negative impact is mainly due to the reuse of the digestate as soil amendment.","PeriodicalId":11324,"journal":{"name":"DEStech Transactions on Environment, Energy and Earth Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75917436","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes a novel efficiency optimization control strategy of PMSM system EV which can maximize the system efficiency in both steady and dynamic state. As the PMSM is directly connected with the load, caused the output torque of motor is a function of the rotate speed, this study is focused on the dynamic system model with the driving cycle which considers about motor copper loss, motor iron loss and inverter loss. Based on the dynamic system model, the proposed control strategy can optimize motor loss and inverter loss together, by which the system efficiency is increased over the whole operation duty. Compared with traditional control strategy, the proposed control strategy can decrease the energy consumption over the whole driving cycle. Both theoretical analysis and experimental results verifies the validity of proposed efficiency optimization control strategy.","PeriodicalId":11324,"journal":{"name":"DEStech Transactions on Environment, Energy and Earth Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86307504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, in order to deal with the uncertainty and inconsistency of the OCV curve in the battery pack, a novel method for SOC estimation based on the general OCV is proposed. The general OCV unifies the OCV curves of all the cells in the battery pack and can be used to solve the OCV derivative in EKF-based SOC estimation, but it brings model deviation meanwhile. Therefore, the battery model is corrected by the model bias, which is obtained by online identification with other model parameters.

Moreover, existing dynamic lane-changing models were based on some certain assumptions. Considering that the actual road is not a complete straight line and the function of the road cannot be accurately established, this paper establishes a cubic polynomial path planning model based on discrete global trajectory points. Then, in order to ensure the trajectory’s safety, comfort and efficiency, an all-sided trajectory optimization function is proposed. At last, simulation verifications are carried out.

In this study, the ESC characters under the varying duration time and the damage impacts are investigated. A novel experimental study on the ESC with incremental duration is proposed and the damage effects are analyzed via the changes of the battery characters, Secondly, the battery destruction is proved to be abruptly generated right after a critical time.

This paper explores current academic thinking about technology roadmaps and technological innovations of excavation operations, in order to identify the components for automated excavation technology roadmaps. Literature in well-established databases are identified using robust search strategies. Text mining, a quantitative approach, was used to analyse and organise findings. Three main technology innovation categories were identified: 1) real time positioning systems; 2) technologies to detect over ground objects, 3) technologies to detect below underground objects.

Few researches exist involving the integration of the two monitoring methods. Following this study, a distributed numerical model for frozen soil processes based on coupled water-heat transferring theory in association with the previously obtained remotely sensed frozen soil datasets will be developed. Parameters characterized the frozen soil status, such as distributions of frozen soils in different types, soil ice content in different times and so on, could be simulated with the developed model. The numerical model systematically integrates the information of surface soil F/T states and considers its impact on the processes of evapotranspiration, infiltration and runoff generation. Several hydrological processes were integrated in the model. Finally, the remote sensing monitoring and numerical simulation coupling method was validated by the in-situ observations over a remote area near the town of Naqu on the East-Central Tibetan Plateau. The results shown that the overall accuracy of the discrimination algorithm based on passive microwave remote sensing was more than 95%.
