Both analysis and test results show that under normal conditions, the container can export the decay heat from the radiation source, and the container can be used in a non-exclusive manner for an accessible surface temperature of less than 50°C. Moreover, under accident conditions, it can effectively prevent the external heat from the fire environment so that the temperature of shielding parts of the container is lower than 327°C, which is the melting point of lead, and ensure the shielding performance is not lost. Its thermal performance meets the relevant requirements of standards and design.","PeriodicalId":120565,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Environmental Science and Green Energy (ICESGE)","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116914945","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 study aims to identify the main gasification reactors, the advantages and disadvantages of each, emissions surrounding the process and alleviatory measures. Despite the concerns about harmful emissions generated from gasification, various primary and secondary actions can be implemented to ensure that emissions are within the recommended environmental limits.

The temperature curve was then measured under various intake pressure and flow conditions, as well as after adding heat exchange fins, to determine the distribution trend and rule of the reactor's temperature field. The experimental results show that when hydrogen is charged at a constant intake pressure, the reactor's internal temperature rises rapidly, and the upper and lower bed temperature rises uniformly. When the intake pressure increases continuously, the maximum temperature of the inner and outer walls of the reactor becomes higher, and the hydrogenation reaction time is shorter. When hydrogen is charged at a constant intake rate, the temperature rise of the whole reactor is more stable, and the time for the bed to rise to the maximum temperature is longer. Still, the maximum temperature of the bed is lower than that of the full-flow hydrogen supply mode. Heat transfer fins can improve the heat transfer performance of the reactor, reduce the maximum temperature reached by the bed, and timely conduct excess heat in the reactor to the outer wall.","PeriodicalId":120565,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Environmental Science and Green Energy (ICESGE)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115029869","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}

Then, the synthesis mechanism of YBCO superconducting phase and the kinetic parameters were obtained using the universal differential, integral and multi-rate scanning Kissinger methods. The results showed that the thermal decomposition was divided into four stages characterized by weight loss from 25°C to 900°C. The fourth stage for the synthesis reaction of YBCO phase follows the random nucleation and subsequent growth (n = 2) model; the activation energy and pre-exponential factor of the fourth stage were 222 kJ/mol and $2.34 times 10^{10}/min$, respectively.

In this study, the full three-dimensional model of the shaft system of a 1000 MW hydro-generator unit is established to accurately analyze the structural behavior of the shaft system via the finite element method with different boundary conditions. The analysis results show that the installation deviation increases the oil film thickness of the hydraulic bearings and greatly reduces the bearing stiffness of the hydro-generator shaft system. Since the bearings are the most important boundary conditions of the shaft system, the reduction of the bearing stiffness due to installation deviation is 1/10 of the designed bearing stiffness, which significantly changes the eigenmodes and eigenfrequencies of the hydro-generator shaft system. The first eigenfrequency of the hydro-generator shaft system with installation deviations is around 68.8% of the eigenfrequency without installation deviations. The installation deviations negatively affect the safe operation of hydro-generator units. Therefore, it is extremely important to control the shaft system installation deviation with high precision to ensure the stable operation of hydro generator units.","PeriodicalId":120565,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Environmental Science and Green Energy (ICESGE)","volume":"398 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124749225","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}
