Abstract:
Considering the uncertainty and randomness of casing loadings and geometry sizes, performance parameters in deep wells, a kind of calculation method of probability distribution of casing external loading and collapse strength was established. Based on the Monte-Carlo method, the probability distribution of casing strength was simulated under non-uniform external loading conditions. With strength-load interference theory, the calculation method of casing safety reliability was obtained, which can analyzes reliabilities of different types of casing strings subjected different loadings in the dangerous section, and a regional relationship between casing reliabilities and safety factors is established. Results show that when casing reliabilities collapse strengths are in the range of 0.5-1.0, the related safety factors locate from 1.0 to 1.25. Safe reliability analysis can provide references for casing strength designs in deep and super deep wells.

Abstract:
In 2010, symptoms of cobweb were observed on cultivated king oyster mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) in Castilla-La Mancha (Spain) affecting 16% of the blocks of substrate cultivated. Cobweb appeared at the end of the crop cycle, first as small, white patches on the casing soil, subsequently spreading to the nearest king oyster mushroom by means of a fine gray-white mycelium, and eventually sporulating to produce masses of dry spores. The mycelium can quickly cover pinheads, stalks, pileus, and gills, eventually resulting in decomposition of the entire fruit body. Infected tissues of P. eryngii were plated onto potato dextrose agar (PDA) and the parasitic fungus was isolated. Fungal colonies consisted of abundant and cottony aerial mycelium spreading rapidly on PDA and red pigment spreading in the agar. Conidiogenous cells were 24 to 35 μm long, 3.5 to 5 μm wide basally, and tapered slightly to the tip. Conidia were cylindrical to narrowly ellipsoidal, 17 to 25 (-28) × 8 to 10 μm, and zero to three septate. Total DNA was extracted and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of rDNA was amplified for one isolate using ITS1F/ITS4 primers (1,3). The amplicon was sequenced (GenBank Accession No. JF505112). BLAST analysis showed 100% similarity of the obtained ITS sequence with two sequences of Cladobotryum mycophilum (teleomorph Hypomyces odoratus) (GenBank Accession Nos. Y17096 and Y17095) (2). Pathogenicity tests were performed using 24 blocks containing sterilized, spawned, and incubated P. eryngii substrate (3.6 kg, 352 cm2 in area). The blocks were placed in a mushroom-growing room and cased with a 40-mm layer of a casing soil (0.7 liter block–1) made with mineral soil + Sphagnum peat 4:1 (vol/vol). Five days after casing, a conidial suspension (7 × 103 conidia ml–1) of one isolate of C. mycophilum was sprayed (5 ml per block) onto the surface of the casing layer at a rate of 106 conidia m–2. Twenty-two blocks were sprayed with sterile distilled water as a control. A temperature of 17 to 18°C and 85 to 90% relative humidity were maintained throughout cropping. The first cobweb symptoms developed 23 days after inoculation and C. mycophilum was consistently reisolated from nine (37.5%) of the inoculated blocks. Noninoculated blocks remained healthy. In a second test, conidial suspensions (3.4 × 105 conidia ml–1) of one isolate of C. mycophilum were inoculated onto 20 P. eryngii fruit bodies. Ten fruit bodies were inoculated externally while the other 10 fruit bodies were cut in half and inoculated internally with 50 μl of conidial suspension per fruit body. Sterilized distilled water was used as a control. All fruit bodies were then incubated at 22°C in a moist chamber. Assays were conducted twice and the results were recorded after 7 days. C. mycophilum grew on 85% of the internally inoculated fruit bodies and on 40% of those inoculated superficially, while the control mushrooms remained symptomless. To our knowledge, this is the first report of C. mycophilum causing cobweb in king oyster mushroom in Spain. This finding will have a potentially significant impact on button mushroom farms where cobweb is one of the most common diseases. References: (1) M. Gardes and T. D. Bruns. Mol. Ecol. 2:113, 1993.

Abstract:
Decreasing the gas pressure is one of the most effective methods to increase the working gas capacity of salt cavern Underground Gas Storages (UGS). In this paper, KING-1 and -2 caverns of Jintan salt cavern UGS, Jiangsu province, China, are studied as an example to investigate their responses under extremely low gas pressure. A 3D geomechanical model of the two caverns is built based on the geological features and rock properties of the host rock salt formation. Different operating conditions are simulated. Safety evaluation criteria for completion casing and caverns are proposed. Thresholds of the indicators consisting of the criteria are given to find the potential minimum gas pressure and the safe working duration of the two caverns. Calculation results indicate that axial strain (along the vertical direction) can perfectly reflect the effects of low gas pressure on the safety of completion casing. The indicators calculated based on the stresses have advantages compared to those based on deformation in assessing the safety of the salt cavern under such low gas pressure and short operating time conditions. The minimum gas pressure gradient of KING-1 and -2 caverns at the casing shoe can decrease from about 7 kPa/m to 5 kPa/m, viz., the minimum gas pressure can decrease from 7 MPa to 5 MPa. The maximum duration for 5 MPa is no more than 118 days. Taking KING-1 cavern as an example, the working gas volume can increase about 17.3%. Research results can provide references for Jintan salt cavern UGS coping with gas shortages.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to design the whole structure of high-speed automatic casing system (HSACS) for lithium-ion battery (LIB), and verify its rationality and reliability by kinematic simulation and casing test. Design/methodology/approach Based on the software of SolidWorks and ADAMS, the structure of working mechanisms for HSACS was designed, and virtual prototype models of HSACS and main turntable were established to realize the kinematic analysis. The HSACS casing test was also carried out and compared with simulation. Findings Simulation results for the designed HSACS were presented graphically and analyzed. The graphical results indicate that the coordination motions among the working mechanisms of HSACS are reasonable and no interference occurs. Casing test results show that the casing quality and production efficiency of HSACS equipment are satisfying. Originality/value In the present work, the developed virtual prototype models of HSACS provide reliable kinematic analysis results for the structural design of HSACS, and reasonable motion relations are realized in the designed structure of HSACS. Furthermore, not only the casing quality requirements can be met, but also the production efficiency of high-speed automatic casing machine for LIB is greatly improved via this kind of new HSACS structure.

Abstract:
Since the decoding of the human genome project concluded in 2003, rapid technological advances in the area of human genetics including genetic testing and bio banking have accelerated. Public discussion of genetic testing and biobanking are the focus of this thesis. Genetic profiling and predictive tests aim to establish the causal conditions for disorders such as Fragile X, cystic fibrosis and Huntington's disease. Biobanking involves the storage of genetic material for genetic research and can also include genealogical research. The complex and varied relationships that Maori (indigenous peoples of New Zealand) in different social locations have with western science (and human genetics in particular) is at the heart of this thesis. The thesis explores the responses of three differently located Maori social groups to the challenges posed by genetic testing and biobanking. Focus/contact group discussion with Maori members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, a group of rongoa or traditional Maori health practitioners, and a group of Maori lawyers illustrate both diversity in the ways in which Maori respond to the issues posed by human genetics, and connections among them as they draw on Maori ontologies and epistemologies. In the analyses of these discussions which constitute the core of this thesis, Maori can be seen juggling alternative frames of reference and negotiating between knowledge systems. The thesis does not purport to provide an overview of Maori responses to genetic testing. Instead it uses discussion among three groups of research participants to illustrate the relevance of temporal and relational knowledge in local situations. A range of social science and Te Ao Maori conceptual tools are used to analyse conversations among research participants. These tools include discussion of power/knowledge and governmentality, actor network theory, sociological discussions of agency as well as concepts of whakapapa, kaitiaki, mauri, and mana motuhake. My goal is to illustrate both connection and heterogeneity in Maori responses to the challenges posed by genetic testing and bio banking.

Abstract:
Cross-gender casting (i.e. the casting of female performers for male parts and vice versa) of plays by William Shakespeare is not a scarce phenomenon and is getting more and more popular in the recent years. In spite of the frequent claim of the theatre-makers and critics that it is in fact a gender blind casting, where the gender of the performer does not matter, the thesis attempts to prove that, in fact, it is not the case. This is exemplified on three most frequently staged and also most commonly cross-gender cast plays: Hamlet, King Lear and Romeo and Juliet. Via these examples the thesis shows the variability of approaches to cross-gender casting and the differences in realization. In the first chapter, the key terminology is defined, in order to avoid confusion, discussing the differences between cross-dressing, travesty and cross-gender casting. That is followed by subchapters in which the basic frame of thought is suggested, building on Judith Butler's deconstruction of gender and the concept of gender performativity. The last subchapter of this section deals with the history of cross-gender casting, including the Elizabethan all-male staging tradition. The next three chapters are then devoted to each of the plays, analyzing the possible interpretive keys and motivations for a cross-gender cast...

Abstract:
This chapter suggests that Helü was considered a legitimate ruler in the Wu royal linage as he inherited the authority passed down from the founder Taibo and King Shoumeng. It recounts the reign of King Liao, which was treated as a transitional period much like the short-lived Qin dynasty. It also notes that the traditions of the Wu king Helü and his successor Fuchai are titled as the “inner tradition,” while the two kings from Yue, Wuyu, and Goujian, are identified as “outer tradition.” The chapter follows the chronology of King Helü's rule, wherein the structure continues the Shiji tradition and provides a comprehensive picture of the time. It examines a considerable number of stories that are supernatural nature or reflect strong yinyang and chenwei influences that were typical during the Eastern Han time, such as the Ganjiang casting swords.

This book concludes where it opened, on the Northern Front of Wabanaki, where the war, and the negotiation of peace, continued long past the summer of 1676. This chapter focuses on a wave of raids that began on the Wabanaki coast, on the same day that Metacom was killed, as well as the efforts of multiple Penacook and Abenaki leaders to end the conflict through diplomacy. It highlights the complex context behind the “surprisal” at Cocheco, involving New Hampshire trader Richard Waldron, and explores the response of Indigenous leaders on the Kennebec River. The chapter concludes with the little-known treaties of Pemaquid and Casco Bay in 1677 and 1678, exploring a wide map of Indigenous communication, diplomacy, and alliance. This wider map also enables acknowledgment of the role of the colonies of New York and New France in both diplomacy and war.

Full text
Abstract:
A kind of novel casing treatment is proposed to realize stall margin enhancement by suppressing stall precursor in turbomachinery. In view of its different configuration and mechanism, such casing treatment is named as stall precursor-suppressed casing treatment in the present work, or SPS casing treatment for short. In the present work, the experiments of SPS casing treatment are conducted in a transonic compressor J69 Rotor/Stage. The SPS casing treatment which consists of a backchamber and a perforated plate is designed according to a proposed theoretical model. It is noted that the open area ratio of the casing treatment is only 4–12%, which is much smaller than traditional casing treatments with over 50% open area ratio. The tests show that the SPS casing treatment can improve the stall margin by 8–12% for J69 Rotor, and 4–12% for J69 Stage. Meanwhile, the mechanism of stall margin improvement with such casing treatment will be revealed in this investigation. Comparing with the evolution of the precursors without casing treatments, the propagation of the stall inception waves will be suppressed and the non-linear development of the stall process will be delayed under the casing treatment case.

Abstract:
Due to enormous material losses in the case of emergency, it is vital to ensure the operation reliability of the natural gas pipeline compressor stations (CS). The risk of breakdown is rather high for gas turbines (GT) with total operation time approaching the design-estimated life and particularly for those in which the actual period of operation exceeds this value. Over 25% of turbine drives working on natural gas transportation net in Russia have exceeded their design life [1]. For instance, around 600 gas turbines of the GTC-10-4 type (10MW power) are still in service despite their 120,000–160,000 hours of operation (more than 1,000 gas turbines GTC-10 type have been made and installed at natural gas pumping stations in the seventies in Russia). These gas turbines contain several critical components. Most of them are related to the high temperature parts, including inner high-temperature turbine casing (ITC). This ITC is a kind of a collector (duct) connecting a combustion chamber outlet and the turbine’s entry. Combined with an insulation layer, it serves as a protective shield for outer (main) turbine casing against the effect of hot gases. Notwithstanding the fact that the GTC-10-4 turbine has a modest inlet gas temperature (TIT∼800°C), there are various problems with the ITC shape and state during the turbine’s operation. The ITC operates under conditions of dramatic temperature changes, pressure drops, extended periods of high temperature. All these factors can cause the ITC shell deformations, which results in poor turbine performances. Regular maintenance inspections including opening a turbine do not permit to establish reasons for dramatic changes in the ITC shape. A detailed numerical analysis has been performed to better understand the ITC dynamics over its service period of operation. Moreover, it should be observed that ITC forms a flow prior to entering a turbine. Then, gas flow is directed to the first stage nozzles of the turbine. Advanced numerical flow investigation methods were applied to improve hot gas distribution in front of the turbine. A considerable decrease in velocity nonuniformity was achieved both radially and circumferentially through the ITC shape optimization. Great need in this component stimulated introduction of a new manufacturing technology aimed at production of new ITCs and replacement of numerous defective ones still used at natural gas pumping stations across Russia. Results of thermo-deformation analysis and numerical flow investigation for various ITC configurations are presented in the paper. It also contains proposals for improving the state of the ITC and outer turbine casing (OTC) in the result of the fixing unit development and applying a new insulation material.

Abstract:
Experimental research about rotating inlet distortion is carried out on a two-stage compressor with emphasis on the compressor stability as well as the stall margin improvement with a kind of stall precursor-suppressed (SPS) casing treatment in this paper. The wire mesh screen is placed at the upstream of the IGV and can rotate at various speeds in co- and counter-direction of the compressor rotor to simulate the rotating inlet distortion in different levels. The results show that the rotating inlet distortion can deteriorate the compressor stall margin and the SPS casing treatment can extend the compressor stall margin (1.95%–7.90%) without additional efficiency loss. The pre-stall behavior of compressor is also analyzed to uncover the mechanism of the stall margin improvement with such casing treatment. Results show that casing treatment of this configuration can weaken the unsteady disturbances in compression system.

Abstract:
Abstract Foam metal is a foam-like substance made out of metal and can be used in flow control, vibration damping and acoustic absorption mainly based on their special physical properties. A kind of foam metal casing treatment is proposed and tested in this study. The impact of the foam metal casing treatment on compressor stability and noise reduction are experimentally investigated. The foam metal selected in the experiments is constructed from ferronickel and its PPI (pores per inch) is 35. The foam metal casing treatment comprises annular support casing and foam metal ring. The effect of foam metal location on stability of the test compressor are investigated by placing shims in support casing. Both time-mean and high-response instrumentation are applied to capture the steady and unsteady compressor performances with the presence of the foam metal casing treatment. 20 microphones of G.R.A.S type are used to measure in-duct acoustic level of the compressor. It is found that the SMI (stall margin improvement) is 36.1% and the efficiency loss is 1.5% at location 7. When foam metal moves to rotor leading edge, the SMI as well as the efficiency loss are getting smaller. The optimal location in the experiments is location 4 where the SMI of compressor is 14.9% and the efficiency loss is 0.1%. The interaction of foam metal with flow in the blade tip region at these locations are investigated and presented in detail. The PSD (power spectrum density) analysis is carried out to show the unsteady signal development in stall inception. The noise attenuation varies in 0.18∼1.6 dB when foam metal is at different locations. Finally, the mechanism and application of the foam metal casing treatment are also discussed.

Abstract:
Nonuniform tip clearance, caused by the deformation of the casing (casing ovalization), exists in all fans to some extent. However, description of the flow behavior with this kind of nonuniform clearance is seldom given in the open literature. In this paper, both steady and unsteady calculations are performed to study the influence of the nonuniform clearance on fan performance and flow field. The investigation method is based on three dimensional RANS equations, carried out by the ANSYS CFX fluid solver. A new factor τ, which is in the range of 0 to 1, is defined to represent the nonuniformity of the tip clearance. A series of numerical models with different tip clearance nonuniformities τ are investigated. In addition, the original, uniform tip clearance is also performed serving as a reference. The results indicate that the fan performance is mainly affected by two factors: the clearance nonuniformity τ and the average clearance level. There is a clear decreasing trend of the fan performance with increasing nonuniformity and average tip clearance level. The maximum clearance can contribute to the reduction of stall margin. Furthermore, the effects of nonuniform clearance on tip leakage vortex and aerodynamic force are also discussed in detail. The deformation of the casing can affect the pressure fluctuation and thus increase the amplitude of the aerodynamic force.

Abstract:
A self-adaptive casing treatment for unshrouded centrifugal compressor was proposed in our previous studies. It is a kind of passive control techniques. The experimental results proved that the stable working range of the compressor was extended greatly with the technique. As for the stability mechanism, there is no convinced explanation. Many researchers believe that the unsteady flow could be one of the key points. In the paper, steady and unsteady numerical simulations were carried out to get the performances of the centrifugal impeller by ANSYS CFX software. The numerical method was validated by comparing with the experimental results. It was found that there were two types of flow pattern in the bleeding-recirculation passages by the numerical simulation with the self-adaptive casing treatment. One was the recirculation flow at the smaller flowrate working conditions and the other was bypass flow at the larger flowrate working conditions. The pressure at the bleeding ports was more than that at the recirculation port at the smaller flowrate. It would result in the recirculation flow in the bleeding-recirculation passages. Otherwise, it would result in the bypass flow in the bleeding-recirculation passages. The numerical results of each bleeding-recirculation passage provided the variation of mass flowrate in it with the pressure difference. The relation of the pressure drop coefficient and Reynolds number based on the bleeding hole was fitted. It was different for the recirculation flow and bypass flow. It is helpful to decide the position of the bleeding ports during the centrifugal compressor design process. Moreover, an unsteady numerical simulation method with the increasing back pressure boundary condition was proposed to investigate the unsteady process approaching to the numerical stall point or unstable flow. The dynamic pressure data in impeller and diffuser were recorded. The amplitudes of the data were picked up to compare the time dependent process. The dynamic pressure at the inlet of diffuser fluctuated more strongly than those at the other positions while the back pressure was increased to the numerical stall point. The experimental data provided the similar phenomena. It suggested that the unstable flow tendency could be caught up by the unsteady simulation process with the increasing back pressure boundary condition. Furthermore, the time dependent flow fields at the blade tip region were compared on the conditions with and without the self-adaptive casing treatment. The effect of the self-adaptive casing treatment was proved by unsteady numerical method with the increasing back pressure boundary condition. The stability mechanism of the self-adaptive casing treatment was explained to some extent.

Abstract:
Slot-type casing treatment generally has a great potential of enhancing the operating range for tip-critical compressor rotors, however, with remarkable efficiency drop. In the first part of this two-part words, several configurations of slot casing treatment were tested in a 1.5 transonic compressor stage by steady simulations. One kind of arc-curve skewed slot contributed to considerable stall margin improvement with minimum efficiency loss. However, interaction between main passage and casing treatment was inherently unsteady. Steady simulation was inadequate to provide accurate compressor performance prediction and precise flow field details. Thus, this part was aimed at clarifying the differences between steady and unsteady simulations. The unsteady interaction process between main passage flow and slots were also detailed interpreted. Unsteady simulation was conducted by applying sliding interface between rotor passage and arc-curved skewed slots. Firstly, differences of compressor performance were examined between steady and unsteady methods. Results showed that steady simulation underestimated stall margin improvement and efficiency drop by casing treatment. Then analysis on aerodynamic parameters and specific flow fields were carried out at smooth casing peak efficiency and casing treatment near stall conditions. Unsteady simulation provided more than 50% larger mass flow rate entering or exiting slots opening surfaces at both operating conditions. It revealed that in unsteady simulation, casing treatment contributed to stronger suction/injection process, which promoted tip flow fields more effectively than steady simulation. Axial velocity deficit at rotor outlet was refilled by slots more effectively in unsteady simulation. In steady result, a large low momentum blockage existed inside rotor passage near tip region and prevented flow from entering the passage at near stall condition. While in unsteady simulation at the same condition, incoming flow was still able to travel across rotor passage in a high velocity. Further, instantaneous flow fields near tip region and inside the slots were particularly examined during a rotor blade passing period to elaborate the unsteady flow interaction. The mid-pitch surface of a representative slot was selected to represent the re-circulation procedure inside slots. Unsteady flow fields and spectrum analysis manifested that tip flow field was dominated by slots passing, while re-circulation process inside slots was dominated by blade passing. Low pressure region inside the blade passage facilitated the injection process. Circulation inside slots lagged behind the pressure variations beneath slots. When the slot was striding over the blade tip, intense injection didn’t emerge immediately beneath slots’ front portion. Until the high pressure region moved away from the slot opening surface, fluids inside the slots started to inject into the main flow in high speed.

Abstract:
The exploitation of different unsteady quantity measurements for identifying various blade faults is examined in this paper. Measurements of sound emission, casing vibration, shaft displacement and unsteady inner wall pressure are considered. It is demonstrated that particular measurements are sensitive to specific faults. The suitability of measuring each of the above physical quantities for tracing the existence of each kind of fault is discussed. The advantage of combining different measurements originates from the possibility of extending the fault repertory covered when only one particular quantity is considered. The data analysis techniques employed range from conventional signal processing to the derivation of acoustic images of the engine outer surface. Relative features of each technique, as to their effectiveness and level of intrusivity, are discussed.

Abstract:
The Francis turbine is a kind of reaction turbines, which means that the potential energy of water converted to rotational kinetic energy. In this study, the flow characteristics have been investigated numerically in a Francis turbine on the 15 MW hydropower generation with various blade profiles (NACA 65 and NACA 16 series) and discharge angles (14°, 15°, 17°, and 18°), using the commercial code, ANSYS CFX. The k-ω SST turbulence model is employed in the Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations. The computing domain includes the spiral casing, guide vanes, and draft tube, which are discretized with a full three-dimensional mesh system of unstructured tetrahedral shapes. The results showed that the change of blade profiles and discharge angles significantly influenced the performance of the Francis turbine.
