Based on compound annual growth rates for capacity factor and, for thermal plants, heat rate, and based on the subset of US plants that have been operating since 2010 or earlier, same-plant capacity factors increased slightly, and heat rates decreased slightly, between 2001–2018 (weighted average based on 2018 plant capacity). Trends vary by region, fuel, and plant age. Notably, US natural gas-fired power plants tended to run more, and more efficiently, as they aged, while coal-fired power plants tended to run less, and less efficiently. Potential drivers include relative plant age, policy, financial competitiveness, and an anticipated tendency for plant operators to react to the effects of equipment aging with maintenance, repair, replacement, and optimization. These observations can inform committed emissions-based research, which requires making assumptions about how plant operational characteristics change (or do not) as they age.","PeriodicalId":93771,"journal":{"name":"IOP SciNotes","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47126813","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}

An explicit algorithm, was adopted to investigate the outcomes. Results showed chip formation and the mode of fracture was closely related with depth of cut and can influence the temperature and flow stress during the machining process. Work hardening and edge dislocation slip in the secondary shear zone was observed to have a notable influence. An optimal machining condition was found between 0.6 and 0.7 mm depth of cut.","PeriodicalId":93771,"journal":{"name":"IOP SciNotes","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47521839","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}

The choice of initial geometries mainly affects the initial and middle stages of phase transition. Initially, the melting point of the cone model is much lower than other two models. This is because the transition of the cone model is induced by its sharp edge, which is prone to be melted. Then, the transition of all models keeps toward the centre of mass. Meanwhile, cone and cylinder models are deformed into spheres. The deforming rate is higher than transition. Finally, all three models were fully melted into the shape of the spheres. Therefore, initial Pb nano-geometries do not affect the final stage of the phase transition.","PeriodicalId":93771,"journal":{"name":"IOP SciNotes","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45673701","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}

E-glass fibre reinforced epoxy-based laminates were used as the skin materials whereas a polyurethane foam was used as the core material with varying thickness of 5, 7, and 9 mm. The experimental/theoretical and FEA analysis were carried out. Results indicated that as core thickness increased, the axial face stresses/core shear stresses and total deformation decreased. This improved the composite structural properties. This improvement was accompanied by a minor increase in weight. A good concurrence was observed between theoretical and FEA results. These results allow us to compare and select optimum parameters for aerospace applications.","PeriodicalId":93771,"journal":{"name":"IOP SciNotes","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46101769","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}

Calculations of independent variables such as ‘Probable Error’ and ‘Imperfection’ are also discussed for partition curve that helps in evaluating the effectiveness of various beneficiation equipment used for the upgradation of quality of coal received from different coal mines. It was observed that there is a tendency for the partition curves to steepen as the density of separation decreases. In other words, separations at lower density is sharper than separations at higher density.","PeriodicalId":93771,"journal":{"name":"IOP SciNotes","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42854407","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}

Accordingly, a new length scale, which accounts the heat propagation from the far-field boundary condition as well, is proposed to ascertain the prolonged time limit. The proposed time limit is obtained by comparing the temperature distribution in a finite heat conduction problem with its equivalent semi-infinite model. Overall, three standard one-dimensional heat conduction problems are analysed and the proposed time limit is found to be valid in all three problems. The new time limit will certainly boost the utility of the semi-infinite solutions and rejuvenate the interest of the scientific community in such solutions.","PeriodicalId":93771,"journal":{"name":"IOP SciNotes","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-08-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41393529","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}

We use a simplified model to study the evolution and morphology of the solitary waves on a thin film with a periodic forcing at the inlet. In recent work by Denner et al (2016 Phys. Rev. E 93, 033121), the regime for high Re was studied and results obtained on the geometry and dispersion of the waves. We wish to establish whether similar results are observed in a regime of smaller Re and examine quantities which can be compared with experiment, such as the maximum and minimum film height as a function of a rescaled Reynolds number which accounts for the inclination of the substrate. Our results show some evidence that h min collapses onto a single curve when plotted as a function of Re*, and approaches the absolute value of h min/h N = 0.375 in agreement with results obtained at higher Re. We also obtain a curve for d/λ which can be compared with the results reported in (Denner et al 2016 Phys. Rev.
