The degradation efficiency of TCH by the TCPP-Cu/Cu<sub>2</sub>O reached 100 % within 30 min under visible light illumination (a 100 W Xenon lamp with 420 nm cutoff filter). The findings indicate that both Cu with localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) and porphyrin-based molecules play a role in augmenting the quantity and separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers. Furthermore, the integration of TCPP on the Cu/Cu<sub>2</sub>O surface also shows two other important roles, 1) preventing the photocorrosion of Cu<sub>2</sub>O, and 2) improving the hydrophilic properties of Cu<sub>2</sub>O.

However, as development challenges intensify, fault diagnosis has grown more intricate, and conventional diagnostic techniques exhibit delays and inaccuracies. With advancements in computer science, machine learning methods have demonstrated their prowess in establishing robust correlations between data features and prediction outcomes. Consequently, this paper introduces a convolutional neural network fault diagnosis model that incorporates a multi-scale channel attention mechanism based on wavelet transform. This model dissects features across various scales using wavelet transform and leverages channel attention to adaptively select channels encompassing fault features, thereby enhancing diagnostic and recognition accuracy. Furthermore, the model integrates a hyperparameter search optimization algorithm to refine the model’s architecture and comprehensively bolster its generalization capability. A comparison with actual field data reveals that the fault diagnosis accuracy of the WT-MACNN model stands at 83.33%. Digital ablation experiments underscore the limited accuracy of the basic CNN model in fault diagnosis, but the sequential introduction of the channel attention mechanism and wavelet transform layers significantly elevates model performance. When juxtaposed with SVM, KNN, and decision tree models, the WT-MACNN model exhibits a diagnostic accuracy improvement of 73.81%, 57.13%, and 54.76%, respectively. Additionally, to assess the model’s adaptability under diverse well conditions, this study reacquired 128 sets of field data. The verification results indicate that the model’s prediction accuracy across different well conditions is 83.59%. Despite occasional misjudgments among certain operating conditions, the overall performance remains outstanding, offering dependable support for diagnosing real-world scenarios. The outcomes of numerical experiments highlight the profound advantages of the proposed deep learning model in terms of generalization ability and diagnostic accuracy, validating its superiority in plunger gas lift fault identification and carrying substantial guidance for the application of this technology.","PeriodicalId":271,"journal":{"name":"Chemical Engineering Science","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142753338","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The CLs were reconstructed using a stochastic algorithm based on the agglomerate catalyst model with varied agglomerate radius distributions. The LBM-calculated CLs absolute permeability reveals that liquid water transportation is enhanced under an average large agglomerate radius of 1 μm near the gas diffusion layer-catalyst layer interface. This design led to an 8.33 % increase in the absolute permeability compared to the CL with uniform agglomerate radius distribution.

The characteristic effect at the microscale due to the intensified gas/liquid/solid–liquid interaction is first reported. The variations of characteristic sizes and hydrodynamics with the kinetic energy, physical property, and structural size at the microscale are analyzed by introducing two key parameters − wave velocity and wave numbers, which are first proposed. The result shows that the kinetic energy determines the hydrodynamics. Viscosity and interfacial tension significantly affect the microscale laminar jet.

Using these tilings, the underlying structure is not uniform, and the behaviors exhibited by this kind of system when pairs of walls are removed uniformly from each tile are considered. A number of different flow patterns arise, some with a braided structure, some with distinct channeling, and others that explored nearly the entirety of the space available. Particle capture in these systems could approach 90% and was nearly independent of the permeability of the system. The tortuous path particles were forced to travel through the structure contributed to its performance. Extruding the structure indicates that it has potential to be used to disperse a concentrated inlet.
