This paper analyses the unusual mal-operation of the differential protection for transformer current differential protection during the external fault. The mal-operation reason is researched in detail, based on the mathematical analysis, the simulation, and the field recorded fault data analysis. It is disclosed that the CT saturation leads to the maloperation. Based on this, this paper analyses the improvement for the CT saturation identification method, and discusses the CT selection principles. This paper is aimed at attracting the attention on the problem of the CT saturation and proposing the reference of the analysis method the countermeasure for this problem.

Although the carbon fiber reinforced composite material has high specific strength and stiffness, design-versatility, anti-corrosion and other excellent features, but the impact resistance of composite structures is poor. Therefore, the composite laminates low-speed damage analysis has important significance. Based on a three-dimensional analysis theory of cumulative damage, using the commercial finite element analysis software ABAQUS to establish laminates subjected to low velocity impact finite element model. according to the numerical results and the consistency of the test results, shows that the used model of the article is reasonable and accurate, and the numerical simulation method is verified to be feasible. Finally, through the numerical simulation of process of laminated plates low speed impact damage, the damage characteristics and damage mechanism of the laminates at different times are analyzed, and the forming reasons and expanding rules of the main damage forms of fiber damage and matrix damage are revealed.

First, a simulation model of the SOFC-MGT top-level combined cycle was established through Matlab/Simulink, and then the effect of different methane flow rates on the performance of the stack and the SOFC-MGT system was analyzed. The research results show that with the increase of methane flow, the power of the stack and SOFC-MGT system gradually increases, but the efficiency of the SOFC-MGT system gradually decreases with the increase of methane flow.

The re-injection of associated sour gas, with high H2S and CO2 content, into the reservoir is proposed to be an effective development method due to its low investment cost and high oil recovery. The aim of this work is to present the phase behavior and miscible mechanism of crude oil displaced by associated sour gas. Based on the equation of state and the phase equilibrium theory, the phase behavior of crude oil mixed with various gases (associated sour gas, H2S, CO2 and CH4) have been analyzed. Then, the miscibility of associated sour gas was determined by calculating its Minimum Miscible Pressure (MMP) and the effect of sour component fraction on miscibility was evaluated. Moreover, a series of numerical simulations modeling 1D slim-tube were conducted using a compositional simulator to study the miscible mechanism in the displacement of crude oil with associated sour gas. The results show that the injection of H2S can reduce the bubble point pressure of crude oil and therefore is beneficial to prevent the crude oil degassing; nevertheless, the injection of CO2 has little effect on it. The miscible ability of associated sour gas decreases as its sour component fraction decreases. It is observed that the crude oil displaced by associated sour gas and sweet gas both show a combined condensing/vaporizing mechanism, with miscible zone in the middle of transition zone. However, the vaporizing-gas drive mechanism is slightly stronger than the condensing-gas drive mechanism during the displacement by associated sour gas while is significantly stronger during the displacement by sweet gas.

Accurate calculation of heat efficiency in the process of superheated steam injection is important for the efficient development of heavy oil reservoirs. In this paper, an integrated analytical model for wellbore heat efficiency, reservoir heat efficiency and total heat efficiency was proposed based on energy conservation principle. Comparisons have been made between the new model results, measured data and Computer Modelling Group (CMG) results for a specific heavy oil reservoir developed by superheated steam injection, and similarity is observed, which verifies the correctness of the new model. After the new model is validated, the effect of injection rate and reservoir thickness on wellbore heat efficiency and reservoir heat efficiency are analyzed. The results show that the wellbore heat efficiency increases with injection time. The larger the injection rate is, the higher the wellbore heat efficiency. However, the reservoir heat efficiency decreases with injection time and the injection rate has little impact on it. The reservoir thickness has no effect on wellbore heat efficiency, but the reservoir heat efficiency and total heat efficiency increase with the reservoir thickness rising.

Sijiazhuang coal mine is taken as an example in this paper. Both the theoretic model and the numerical simulation are carried out to analyze the stress distribution regularity on the surrounding rock of stope face under different overlying strata combinations by using discrete element method. Under different combinations of the overlying strata, the results indicate that the regularity of stress distribution around stope face is roughly the same, i.e. the stress concentration of different degree appears in both ends, and the region of pressure relief exist above the stope face. Furthermore, destruction degree of the roof in stope face is different under various overlying strata combinations. On the eve of the first weighting, the different combinations present different phenomenon of concentration, especially the soft-hard-soft combination and hard-soft-hard combination.

In this research, the effects of three different pretreatment methods, physical pulverizing, steam blasting and hydrogen peroxide oxidizing, on ethanol preparation from corn straw were compared. The results showed that the content of reducing sugar in corn straw briquette with grinding and steam blasting pretreatment were 2 and 1.5 times higher than that without pretreatment. In the final product, the concentration of ethanol and rate of alcohol increased about 3.8 and 2 times, respectively. Besides, the reducing sugar content, ethanol content and alcohol yield in corn stalks soaked in hydrogen peroxide were 7 times higher than the untreated. The cellulose can be effectively isolated after being soaked in hydrogen peroxide with a concentration of 2.5% for 72 hours, as well as better degradation of lignin and hemicellulose. The amount of ethanol and the yield of alcohol were 1.9 and 3.3 times higher than physical pulverization and steam blasting. In brief, it is declared that hydrogen peroxide pretreatment can easily destroy the lignocellulosic cellulose of maize straw and improve the conversion rate of cellulose, which might be beneficial for the production of fuel ethanol.

A MoSi2-CrSi2-SiC-Si coating was prepared on the surface of carbon/carbon (C/C) composites by a two-step pack cementation method. The microstructure and oxidation behaviour of the coating were studied. These results illustrated that the coating could effectively protect C/C composites from oxidation from oxidation in air above 1600 K, due to the protection of the compound glass. The weight loss of the coated C/C specimens was only 0.4% after oxidation at 1873 K for more than 150 h. The coating lacked effective oxidation resistance for C/C composites from 800 to 1600 K, as no obvious glass layer covered the coating surface and the cracks cannot be sealed because of the high viscosity of the compound glass.
