传导冷却高温超导磁体热输运参数反演识别

在传导冷却高温超导磁体系统中,超导磁饼热导率以及磁饼与导冷体之间的界面热阻是影响热输运的主要因素,也是传导冷却超导磁体系统热设计的难点。为了获得准确的热导率和界面热阻参数,根据Levenberg-Marquardt算法提出通过表面测温确定传导冷却超导磁体热输运参数的反演识别方法。搭建低温实验数据测试平台,建立高温超导磁饼三维各向异性热传导模型。利用反演算法对传导冷却Bi2223高温超导磁体在40~76K温区的各向异性热导率与界面热阻进行反演识别,并分析测温误差对识别结果的影响。研究成果将为超导磁体热输运参数的获取提供一种新思路。     

无人机风梯度滑翔过程中能量变化

风梯度滑翔是一种能够使飞行器从飞行环境中获取能量的飞行方式。在已建立的飞行器动力学模型的基础上,分析了无人机在已知的梯度风场中一个滑翔周期内的能量变化过程。采取分段解析的方法,将一个风梯度滑翔周期分为4个阶段进行分析,即逆风爬升、高空转弯、顺风下滑和低空转弯,其中高空转弯为整个滑翔周期内的关键阶段。采用三维空间路径结合二维平面投影的计算方法,详细分析了无人机在高空转弯过程中的运动方程和能量转化方程,同时分析了影响飞行器从梯度风场中获取能量以及梯度风场中由于空气阻力导致飞行器能量损失的相关参数,为无人机最大程度地从梯度风场中获取能量,同时减少自身能源损耗提供了理论指导,并且根据理论建模进行了仿真分析,得出了逆风爬升和高空转弯的初期是获取能量主要阶段的结论,对指导无动力滑翔有很大的意义。

CREATING SUNS ON EARTH

Concerns about climate change and energy security have prompted some countries to revive dormant nuclear fission power programs to meet growing energy demands and reduce carbon dioxide emissions. However, this so-called nuclear renaissance based on fission would have major drawbacks in the areas of safety, security, and nonproliferation. Nuclear fusion, however, is portrayed by its proponents as mitigating these drawbacks, and scientists continue to pursue fusion's promise with two large-scale projects: the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), and the Laser Inertial Fusion Engine (LIFE) reactor. Although supporters often hail fusion as proliferation resistant, the technology could be used to create weapons-usable fissile material. This article explains how fissile material could be created in ITER or LIFE and analyzes other nonproliferation implications of fusion; the authors discuss the various challenges faced by ITER and LIFE.     

Beyond Iran: Containing Nuclear Development in the Middle East

ABSTRACT

Several states in the Middle East have noted their interest in nuclear energy programs, but current cost and timeline estimates understate the difficulties that these states will face. A state-level analysis of nuclear development capacities in Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, and the United Arab Emirates suggests that building nuclear infrastructure in the region will, in fact, be a lengthy and expensive endeavor, due to concerns such as export constraints, public opposition, a lack of human resources, and high overhead costs. This has implications for nuclear weapon nonproliferation: first, fears that these developing nuclear energy capabilities may facilitate possible weapon proliferation are premature, and second, there is time to ensure that any burgeoning nuclear infrastructure in the region remains safe and civilian in nature.     

THE NUCLEAR THRESHOLD STATES

“Nuclear threshold states”—those that have chosen nuclear restraint despite having significant nuclear capabilities—seem like the perfect partners for the reinvigorated drive toward global nuclear disarmament. Having chosen nuclear restraint, threshold states may embrace disarmament as a way to guarantee the viability of their choice (which may be impossible in a proliferating world). Supporting disarmament efforts affirms their restraint, both self-congratulating and self-fulfilling. Additionally, the commitment to their non-nuclear status springs at least in part from a moral stance against nuclear weapons that lends itself to energetic support of global disarmament. However, threshold states also offer significant challenges to the movement for nuclear weapons elimination, in particular in relation to acquisition of enrichment and reprocessing facilities. This article analyzes both the challenges and opportunities posed by threshold states by examining the cases of Brazil and Japan.

膨润土-砂混合型缓冲／回填材料液塑限试验

为研究掺砂率对高庙子膨润土一砂混合型缓冲／回填材料液塑限的影响,利用液塑限联合测定仪进行了试验研究,并运用最小二乘法对混合物液塑限试验数据进行了分析。试验结果表明膨润土一砂混合物的可塑性、液塑限值和塑性指数均随掺砂率的增大而降低。对试验结果进行分析,得到了考虑掺砂率影响的混合物液塑限经验公式。混合物的液塑限并不是随掺砂率增大成比例降低,而是液限的实测值小于理论值,塑限的实测值大于理论值。得到的不同掺砂率的膨润土一砂混合型缓冲／回填材料液塑限试验数据可为高放废物深地质处置库建设提供科学依据。
