INVESTIGATING A NEAR-BED SUBMARINE PIPELINE IN A CURRENT

This paper considers the lift forces acting on a pipeline with a small gap between the pipeline and the plane bottom or scoring bottom. A more reasonable fluid force on the pipeline has been obtained by applying the knowledge of modified potential theory (MPT), which includes the influences of the downstream wake. By finite element method, an iteration procedure is used to solve problems of the nonlinear fluid-structure interaction. Comparing the deflection and the stress distributions with the difference sea bottoms, the failure patterns of a spanning pipeline have been discussed. The results are essential for engineers to assess pipeline stability.

管道内一氧化碳和空气预热混合物的爆燃特性

为了安全回收煤气余热,实验研究了不同初始温度下的一氧化碳和空气混合气体在设置障碍物的管道中的爆燃特性。测量了爆燃压力和火焰速度,分析了化学当量比和温度对爆燃的影响。结果表明:爆燃压力和火焰速度在障碍物段快速提高;一氧化碳当量比为1.1时爆燃的强度最大;初始温度升高后,压力提高逐渐减缓,最大火焰速度下降,但仍大于550 m/s,传播时间先快速增加后平稳。

Gamma decay of the lowly excited states of 189Re

189W activities were produced via the 192Os(n, α) reaction using irradiation of isotopically enriched 192Os metallic powder of ～100 mg/cm2 with 14 MeV neutrons. The X-γ and γ-γ coincidence measurements were made so as to obtain γ rays from 189W decay and its coincidence relations. A new simple decay scheme of 189W including three γ rays of 210.2, 229.6 and 260.2 keV is proposed. Two new levels of 189Re at 470.4 and 489.8 keV are assigned.
