The magnetohydrodynamic axisymmetric instability of a streaming gas jet surrounded by bounded fluid with non-uniform field has been developed. The problem is formulated, solved and the boundary conditions are applied across the interfaces. The eigenvalue relation is derived and discussed analytically and the results are confirmed numerically. Some reported works are recovered as limiting cases from the present general results. The streaming has a destabilizing effect for all short and long wavelengths. The capillary force is stabilizing for short wavelengths but it is destabilizing for long wavelengths. The axial magnetic fields interior the gas and fluid media are stabilizing. The transverse field is destabilizing for all wavelengths. The radii ratio of the gas and fluid cylinders plays an important role for stabilizing the model and made it more realistic one than the full liquid jet or/and the ordinary hollow jet. The numerical analysis clarify the stable and unstable domains based on different values of the various parameters of the problem.

The characteristics of the flow and energy conversion in OMACON liquid-metal MHD system are investigated. Numerical simulation of two-phase flow in the OMACON system without magnetic field was carried out by the Phoenics code and the energy conversion characteristics are studied in association with the fact that the mechanical energy loss at the nozzle of the OMACON system are to be converted into electrical energy. In this system, working fluid (gas) is injected through the mixer located at the bottom of the riser, and is mixed with hot liquid metal. Therefore in the riser two-phase flow is developed under the influence of the gravity. In this study, the interaction between the gas and liquid is considered by the use of IPSA(InterPhase Slip Algorithm) where standard drag coefficient has been used. It has been assumed that in the flow regime the liquid is continuous and the gas is dispersed. For the liquid and gas, the continuity equations, momentum equations and energy equations are solved respectively in association with void fraction in the flow field. In order to calculate the energy conversion efficiency, firstly the ratio of the mechanical energy loss of liquid metal flow at the nozzle to the input thermal energy is considered. Secondly flow pattern of liquid metal in the generator has been analyzed, and the characteristics of the conversion of the mechanical energy into the electrical energy has been investigated. For an representative case where Hartmann number is 540 and magnetic field is 0.35 T, the present analysis shows that the energy conversion efficiency is 0.653. This result is considered to be reasonable in comparison with published experimental results.

Underground water-sealed gas storage caverns have become the primary method for strategic storage of LPG. Previous studies of excavation blasting effects on large-scale underground water-sealed gas storage caverns are rare at home and abroad. In this paper, the blasting excavation for underground water-sealed propane storage caverns in Yantai was introduced and field tests of blasting vibration were carried out. Field test data showed that the horizontal radial velocity had a major controlling effect in the blasting vibration and frequencies would not cause the vibration velocity concentration effects. In terms of the influence of blasting vibration on adjacent caverns, the dynamic finite element model in LS-DYNA soft was established, whose reliability was verified by field test data. The numerical results indicated the near-blasting side was primary zone for the structural failure and tensile failure tended to occur in the middle of the curved wall on the near-blasting side. Meanwhile, the safety criterions for adjacent caverns based on stress wave theory and according to statistic relationship between peak effective tensile stress and peak particle velocities were obtained, respectively. Finally, with Safety Regulations for Blasting in China (GB6722-2014) taken into account, a final safety criterion was proposed.

The effect of magnetic field on NOx removal characteristics from a combustion flue gas has been experimentally investigated for a DC corona discharge reactor with a multipoint plate geometry in our Lab. Combustion flue gas removal efficiency of this type was much higher than that of the other types. In this paper, needle-plate geometry discharge system with applied magnetic field at a right angle to the electric field was made. Input power source was used negative DC. The corona discharge characteristics for this system was investigated and compared with the corona characteristics for the corona discharge system without magnetic field.

For the purpose of evaluating to remove elemental mercury using SCR (Selective Catalytic Reduction) catalysts, the result of the concentration variation of elemental mercury in lab experiment and field measurement was compared. The effect of the elemental mercury oxidation on commercial catalysts was studied in simulated gas. Three species of SCR catalyst, $V_2O_5-TiO_2$ type, were selected. The elemental mercury reduced 30% without HCl gas in SCR operating condition. But the width of reduction increased 60% at 20 ppm HCl gas. According to the result of field measurement, reduction rate of elemental mercury at SCR outlet showed 60%. The total mercury concentration decreased about 20%. The results were similar to the lab test. The results of chemical analysis of test sample showed increase of mercury concentration but surface change was not observed.

This paper deals with the dielectric characteristics of $SF_{6}$ gas stressed by non-oscillating and oscillating impulse voltages in inhomogeneous field perturbed by a fixed needle shaped-protrusion. The breakdown voltage-time characteristics were measured for both polarities and over the gas pressure range from 0.1 to 0.5 [MPa], and the temporal developments of the prebreakdown were observed. The dependence of the leader stepping time on the gas pressure were obtained.

In this paper, the arc region of a gas circuit breaker (GCB) is analyzed using the fast moving least square reproducing kernel method (FMLSRKM) which can simultaneously calculate an approximated solution and its derivatives. For this problem, an axisymmetric and inhomogeneous formulation of the FMLSRKM is used and applied. The field distribution obtained by the FMLSRKM is compared to that of the finite element method. Then, a whole breaking period of a GCB is simulated, including analysis of the arc gas flow by finite volume fluid in the cell, and the electric field of the arc region using the FMLSRKM.

This paper presents a data acquisition and monitoring system for a gas turbine. The proposed system entitled C-Tune DAS plays an important role to make an analysis of the real-time operation of the gas turbine under maintenance. The designed LabVIEW based software is divided into three parts according to their original functions, i.e., data acquisition, data analysis with display, and data storage. The data acquisition part receives data from a PMS (Plant Management System) server and two cFPs (Compact-Field Point). To verify the validity of the developed system, it is applied to gas turbines in the combined cycle power plant in Korea.

This paper describes the dielectric characteristics of $SF_{6}$ gas in a non-uniform electric field under overvoltages. The breakdown voltage-time characteristics and the breakdown voltage-gas pressure characteristics are measured within a gas pressure range extending from 0.1 to 0.5 [Mpa] for the plane electrode system with a needle-shaped protrusion. The curvature radius of the needle protrusion is 0.5[mm]. Also, the growth process of the predischarge are simultaneously observed. As a result, it is found that the breakdown mechanism and predischarge phenomena are closely associated with the polarity and waveforms of the testing voltage.

The results of stand and field testing of a combustion chamber for a heavy-duty 150 MW gas turbine are discussed. The model represented one of 14 identical segments of a tubular multican combustor constructed in the scale 1:1. The model experiments were executed at a pressure smaller than in the real gas turbine. The combustion efficiency, pressure loss factor, pattern factor, liner wall temperature, flame radiation, fluctuating pressure, and NOx emission were measured at partial and full load for both model and on-site testing. The comparison of these items of information, received on similar modes in the stand and field tests, has allowed the development of a method of calculation and the improvement of gas turbine combustors.
