Remote and on-line measurement of chromium on structural steel surface in nuclear power plants is critical for protection against fluid accelerated corrosion. To improve the insufficient sensitivity of fiber-optic laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy toward trace element detection, a dual-pulse spectral enhancement system is set up. In an iron matrix, for the purpose of improving sensitivity of trace chromium analysis and reducing the self-absorption of iron, the effects of key parameters are investigated. The optimal values of the parameters are found to be: 450 ns inter-pulse delay, 700 ns gate delay, 30 mJ/6 mJ pulse energy ratio, and 19.8 mm lens-to-sample distance (corresponding to a 799 μm laser focused spot size). Compared to the single-pulse system, the shot number of dual-pulse ablation is limited for reducing surface damage. After the optimization of the dual-pulse system, the signal-to-noise ratio of the trace chromium emission line has been improved by 3.5 times in comparison with the single-pulse system, and the self-absorption coefficient of matrix iron has been significantly reduced with self-reversal eliminated. The number of detectable lines for trace elements has more than doubled thus increasing the input for spectral calibration without significantly increasing the ablation mass. Three calibration methods including internal standardization, partial least squares regression and random forest regression are employed to determine the chromium and manganese concentrations in standard samples of low alloy steel, and the limit of detection is respectively calculated as 36 and 515 ppm. The leave-one-out cross validation method is utilized to evaluate the accuracy of chromium quantification, and the concentration mapping of chromium is performed on the surface of a steel sample (16MND5) with a relative error of 0.02 wt.%
Experiments were conducted in a semi-confined pipe to investigate the effects of obstacle location and gasoline vapor concentration on gasoline-air fuel explosions. The variations of internal overpressure, external overpressure, flame propagation and flame-overpressure coupling relationship were analyzed. The results showed thatthe internal overpressure histories existed three obvious peaks, and when the obstacle location was set at 0.4 m, the maximum absolute values of overpressure (pmax and pneg), overpressure rise rates ((dp/dt)ave and (dp/dt)max) and the deflagration index (KG) were obtained. Additionally, more than two positive overpressure peaks were observed in the external overpressure histories. The maximum values of external overpressures and overpressure rise rates were obtained at the obstacle location of 0.4 m. For the fuel concentrations of 1.3%,.1.7% and 2.1%, the shortest time to reach pmax appeared at the obstacle location of 0.4 m, 0.2 m and 0.6 m, respectively, while the shortest time to reach (dp/dt)max and the maximum flame propagation speed were obtained for all the fuel concentrations at the obstacle location of 0.2 m. Moreover, a coupling relationship between overpressure and flame propagation was found. lt could be tleduced that the formation of the positive overpressure peak ofthe external overpressure might be directly related to the gas explosion inside the pipe and the flow jet caused by the high-speed flame propagation. rat her than the external explosion (or secondary explosion) out of the pipe. These results improve our understanding on gas explosion dynamics in a semi- confined space.
Smouldering fires and explosions arising from self-ignition of coal dust deposits represent a serious hazard for human being, environment and industry. It is essential for plant operators to know the conditions (temperature, duration and quantity) at which storage will be safe. In this work, self-ignition behaviour of three bituminous coal dusts in large scales are theoretically studied, based on the experimental data via a standardized hot-basket apparatus. A comprehensive 2-D transient model is developed, using a 2nd-order reaction kinetics considering both coal and oxygen consumptions, to investigate self-ignition parameters of coal dust accumulations. The numerical model shows a less conservative prediction compared with the steady-state methods. The computational self-ignition temperature and ignition delay time show a satisfaction agreement with lab-scale experimental results. In addition, the influences of ambient temperature and moisture content are analysed. The result shows that the moisture content delays the ignition and a small variation of the ambient temperature nearby the critical condition will lead to a large difference of the ignition delay time.
Understanding the void defect formation mechanism and simultaneous predicting the tool service life in friction stir welding are critical for optimizing the welding parameters. However, the void defect formation mechanism in friction stir welding is not yet elucidated. In this study, a novel integrated thermal-fluid-structure coupling model of the friction stir welding process was proposed for simultaneous prediction of the weld formation and tool service life. A new non-uniform distribution model of the tool-workpiece contact pressure was proposed to describe the interaction between the tool and the workpiece. The void defect formation mechanism was quantitatively studied using the proposed integrated thermal-fluid-structure coupling model. The results show that the plastic material flows in the horizontal direction and can completely fill the cavity behind the tool for the welding condition of forming a sound weld. While the tool-workpiece contact interfacial frictional shear stress in the rear of the tool is decreased significantly which leads to a severe decrease in the plastic material flow velocity. Therefore, after bypassing the tool from the retreating side, the plastic material at the bottom of the weld stagnates, and void defect forms in the middle and lower part of the weld at the advancing side. The difference between the maximum and the minimum tool-workpiece contact pressure could serve as a numerical criterion to predict void defects. A sound joint is formed when the difference is lower than the critical value of 15 MPa, while a void defect is formed in the weld if it is higher than this critical value. The maximum equivalent stress acting on the tool is located at the pin root with severe stress concentration at a high welding speed. The front of the tool is subjected to tensile stress while its rear is subjected to compressive stress, therefore the tool is apt to fracture at its root under an inappropriate welding condition. The average normal stress of the tool varies periodically with its period consistent with the rotation period of the tool. The service life of the tool is decreased with the increase in welding speed and the decrease in rotation speed. The model is validated by experimental results.
