To conduct the thermal transport characteristics and operational stability of the steam generation system (SGS) under partial load conditions in concentrating solar power (CSP), a real-scale shell-and-tube steam generator hydrodynamics predictive model is developed. This model integrates lumped parameter methods with the finite volume method to account for heat transfer and phase change. Additionally, in accordance with the prevailing water circulation mode in the CSP plant, a typical model of the natural circulation system is established, while optimal stable operating points of the maximum circulation mass flow rate under varying operating conditions are determined. The results indicate that the inherent stability of the generator strongly lies in the dynamic compromise between its thermodynamic and hydrodynamic characteristics. Under high load conditions, the natural circulation mode demonstrates excellent flow stability. Operating at lower operating pressures results in greater circulation flow and a heightened sensitivity to phase changes. Under system pressures of 13.76, 11.08, 8.39, and 6.71 MPa, the recommended circulation ratios are determined to be 5.38, 7.86, 11.95, and 16.07, respectively. Furthermore, the stability of the circulation curve is optimized by adjusting the structural dimensions of the steam generator. The sensitivity to evaporation capacity and heat exchanger effectiveness is assessed.

Underground in-situ pyrolysis of tar-rich coal is an effective approach to expand the supply channels of oil and gas while ensuring energy security, and it has currently aroused wide attention in the academic community. The coupling of multiple interdependent physical fields causes the in-situ pyrolysis process and related phenomena. However, existing studies usually only have focused on a single process. The study proposed a three-dimensional (3D) model for the in-situ pyrolysis of tar-rich coal employing external high-temperature fluids. Numerical simulation was used to achieve the transient calculation of the coupling model of chemical reaction, fluid flow, and heat transfer. The impacts of medium type, medium temperature, inlet rate, well patterns, and the number of horizontal fractures were investigated by characterizing the temperature and concentration fields. The results indicate that, under the basic working condition, the pyrolysis reaction of tar-rich coal in the formation has been completed after ∼28.5 months of heat injection. Both N 2 and CO 2 are heat carriers with greater advantages in heat transfer as compared to H 2 O (g). The threshold of injection rate is 5 m·s −1 . The heat transfer effect of coal seams with 4 injection wells is obviously better than that of 1 and 2 injection wells. The number of 3 horizontal fractures is superior to 1 and 2 fractures, which can effectively enhance heat transfer and promote the thermal decomposition. The present study has emphatically investigated the evolution of characteristic fields of tar-rich coal seams under thermo-fluid-chemical coupling conditions during the in-situ pyrolysis process, providing substantial reference significance to guide the in-situ conversion mining.

With the growing global focus on renewable and oxygenated fuels, acetone has attracted significant attention due to its role as a key intermediate in the oxidation of alcohol-based fuels, an efficient hydrogen carrier, and a vital component in hydrogen production via catalytic reforming and biofuel synthesis. A comprehensive understanding of its pyrolysis and oxidation mechanisms is crucial for advancing clean energy technologies and optimizing its utilization in sustainable fuel applications. However, discrepancies persist in existing models regarding the time histories of key species during acetone pyrolysis. In this study, advanced laser diagnostic techniques were employed to measure the time-resolved concentration profiles of various species during acetone oxidation behind reflected shock waves, capturing the dynamic evolution of key intermediates and products such as CO, OH, and H 2 O. By integrating the latest experimental and theoretical studies, including the concentration profiles of key intermediates during pyrolysis, rate coefficient measurements, and ignition delay times, the critical reaction pathways and rate coefficients of acetone were systematically refined. Additionally, previously missing reaction pathways (i.e., CH 2 CO + CH 3 =HCCO + CH 4 ) were incorporated, leading to an improved acetone kinetic model that underwent comprehensive validation against various experimental datasets. The results indicate that the updated model accurately predicts the time-resolved concentration profiles of key species during acetone oxidation and pyrolysis over a wide temperature range, with significant improvements in predicting ignition delay times and laminar flame speeds. This study offers valuable insights for refining acetone kinetic models and establishes a research framework for investigating the complex chemical behavior of ketones and other oxygenated fuels in combustion.

Flue gas recirculation and steam injection are employed in hydrogen-rich gas turbines to stabilize fuel reactivity and improve cycle efficiency, introducing high water vapor content into the combustion chamber and thereby necessitating an investigation of water-fuel interactions at elevated temperatures. This study employed UV laser absorption diagnostics behind reflected shock waves to conduct in situ measurements of the ȮH concentration time-histories during the oxidation of CH 4 /H 2 /H 2 O/O 2 /Ar mixtures at pressures of approximately 1.3, 5.0, and 15.2 atm and temperatures ranging from 1225 to 1888 K with varying hydrogen blending and water addition ratios. The absorption lineshapes of the ȮH R 1 (5) transition in the A-X(0,0) vibronic band were characterized after broadening and shifting in Ar at different pressures, with diagnostic center wavelengths set at 306.6868 nm (1.3 atm), 306.6874 nm (5.0 atm), and 306.6886 nm (15.2 atm), respectively. The obtained ȮH concentration time-history data were compared in detail with predictions from eight representative reaction kinetic models, and the predictive capability of the models for ȮH behavior was quantitatively assessed using the error function method. NUIGMech1.1 exhibited superior performance in predicting ȮH behavior and was subsequently selected for kinetic analysis to elucidate stage-specific micro-mechanisms and identify key reactions driving the concentration evolution. The activating effect of H 2 on ȮH behavior during CH 4 oxidation was investigated. Results indicate that higher hydrogen levels intensify hydrogen-related reaction pathways, expanding the radical pools (H, ȮH, and Ö), thereby promoting fuel consumption through Ḣ-atom abstraction reactions. Additionally, by introducing weak collision H 2 O* and inert H 2 O**, the thermodynamic and kinetic effects of water were distinguished. The results show that under the current conditions, H 2 O primarily affects ȮH behavior through direct participatio
