The concept of creating a maneuverable power plant based on a small modular reactor

Purpose. To develop a maneuverable power plant (MPP) based on the NuScale small modular reactor (SMR) by selecting a thermal scheme structure for a steam turbine installation using minimal additional equipment and ensuring its operation in both nominal and peak modes with maximum efficiency. This also includes ensuring its maneuverability through the use of hydrogen technologies for generating, storing, and returning energy to the steam turbine cycle. Methodology. The study employed the method of mathematical modeling of thermodynamic cycles of thermal schemes of steam turbine installations (STI) with concentrated parameters, which makes it possible to describe the dynamics of systems consisting of discrete elements that are thermodynamic systems. Findings. Various structural options for the thermal scheme of the MPP based on the NuScale SMR for nominal operation were developed and mathematically modeled, followed by a comparative analysis of their energy efficiency. As a result, a scheme and operational parameters were selected with the highest electrical efficiency (net), which allows increasing the net efficiency of the NuScale SMR-based power plant from the developers’ announced 28 to 32.8 %. A thermal scheme for the MPP based on the SMR with an energy storage system was proposed. Applying this scheme allows increasing the net efficiency of a power plant based on NuScale SMR in peak mode to 34.8 %. Originality. A concept for creation and schematic solution for a prospective MPP based on an SMR capable of accumulating electrical energy was proposed. The main innovative solution regarding the structure of the technological scheme of the MPP based on the SMR is the organization of its operation in nominal and peak modes, which fundamentally differ in the thermodynamic cycle. In the nominal mode, the steam turbine installation operates on a thermodynamic cycle with steam separation, and in the peak mode without it, by increasing the temperature of fresh steam as a result of burning hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen and oxygen are produced in an electrolyzer during the power plant’s operation in the nominal mode by using the generated electricity “excess”. Practical value. Small modular reactors are currently mainly in the development stage. Additionally, the non-nuclear part of the SMR-based power plant, namely the STI, has not received sufficient attention, as evidenced by the literature. However, it plays a crucial role in the overall efficiency of the installation. The study focuses on the highly relevant issue of improving the efficiency of an SMR-based power plant by developing the structure of the STI thermal scheme involving hydrogen technologies. This will help reduce dependence on fossil hydrocarbons in the total volume of primary fuel and enable sustainable functioning of the Ukrainian energy system, as well as contribute to the preservation and improvement of the environmental state.

Justification of the safe parameters of recreational zones during the reclamation of watered residual quarry spaces

Purpose. To determine the safe parameters of the recreational zones created in the residual space of the quarry taking into account the physical and mechanical properties of waste rocks in a watered state. Methodology. The Bishop Simplified Method is used to determine the influence of the irrigation level of the residual quarry space on the stability of the embankment from different types of mining rocks when creating a recreational area during reclamation works. Findings. The safe parameters of recreational areas during their construction in the watered residual space of the quarry were established taking into account the physical and mechanical properties of embankments made of sand, loam, and crushed rock by determining the stability of their slopes. The obtained results are necessary for the implementation of project works on the development of technological schemes for the reclamation of the residual spaces of construction materials quarry for the recreational direction of post-mining. Originality. The influence of the height of the rock embankment formation on the stable angle of inclination of the watered slope was established, which allowed determining that with an increase in the aggregates embankment height from 20 to 80 m, the safe angle of the slope will decrease from 46 to 26°. It was determined that the lowest FOS indicator is 0.57 when using sand rocks for an embankment height of 80 m at a water content of 40 %. It was established that with partial flooding of the rock embankment by 45–50 % for sandy, loamy and rocky rocks, there is a significant decrease in the coefficient of the reserve of stability by 1.4–1.5 times, in contrast to the absence of water or complete flooding, which confirms the negative impact of partial flooding of embankments and reducing the stability of their slopes. Practical value. It was determined that when forming an embankment 20 m high from loamy rocks, the volume of reclamation works will be 1.34 times less compared to sandy rocks, but 1.02 times larger than rocky rocks. When the height of the embankment increases to 80 m, the volume of reclamation works when replacing loam with sand will increase to 1.87 and 1.12 times when using crushed stone. However, taking into account the market value of materials, when using loam, the cost of construction will decrease by 2.5 times compared to sandy rocks and 3.2 times – to crushed stone, with an embankment height of 20 m. When the embankment height increases to 80 m, the cost of materials will increase by 3.5 and 3.8 times when loamy rocks are replaced by sand or crushed stone, respectively.

The section span of the withdrawal space of fully mechanized top coal caving in an extra-thick coal seam is large, and with the gradual withdrawal of the hydraulic support, a series of strong dynamic pressure disasters occur in the withdrawal space, and the difficulty of surrounding rock support control increases sharply. In order to study the control mechanism of surrounding rock in the final mining withdrawal space in detail and put forward a reasonable support technology scheme, taking the large-section withdrawal space of an 8309 fully mechanized caving face in an extra-thick coal seam of a mine as the research object—through the theoretical investigation of whether the key blocks of the main roof are stably hinged under varied stopping coal caving distances and fracture locations of the main roof—the reasonable and optimal stopping coal caving distances and roadway formation time are determined. Using numerical simulation and similar simulation methods, the vertical stress and the maximum shear stress research indicators were introduced to verify the accuracy of the theoretical analysis results. The results show the following: (1) The reasonable stopping coal caving span is 1~2 times the cycle weighting interval, the best stopping coal caving distance in this geological condition is 30 m, and the best fracture position of the main roof is located above the goaf. (2) The migration of overlying strata in the withdrawal space has obvious zoning characteristics, and the zoning is as follows: a stopping coal caving area, support area of the hydraulic support, withdrawal channel area, and stopping coal pillar area. (3) According to the zoning characteristics of overlying strata movement, the asymmetric zoning support control scheme of the withdrawal space is proposed. The field monitoring results show that the maximum roof subsidence in the withdrawal space is 151 mm, the maximum internal squeezing amount of the stopping coal pillar is 82 mm, and the supporting and anchoring effect of each partition in the withdrawal space is good. The set of partition asymmetric support control schemes has been successfully applied to field practice.

Mathematical Modeling of Forwarder Operation When Collecting Logs in the Forest Swath

Optimization of the machines allows you to increase their productivity and reduce the labor costs for performing individual elements of the technological cycle of their work in the forest. In this regard, the authors offer theoretical studies that take into account the peculiarities of the work of one of the most popular logging machines today, namely, a machine for collecting and forwarding logs (forwarder). The article discusses the technological features of the functioning of these machines, identifies ways to reduce the cost of collecting logs, justifies the rational width of apiaries, which allows collecting logs with a minimum number of movements between work positions.

The authors propose an analytical approach to solving the problem. On the basis of the standard technological scheme of the harvester's movement through the swath, geometric regularities of the trajectory of the manipulator movement, dimensional characteristics and location of the prepared logs are revealed. As a result of the work, mathematical dependencies are constructed that make it possible to determine the rational values of the desired parameters. The results can be used by research organizations in planning the production process of logging operations. The introduction of author's recommendations into production will contribute to improving the efficiency and operation of forestry equipment.

An Effective Method for Reproducing the Flow of a Gas-Liquid Mixture Using a Flow Standard

The appearance on the market of measuring equipment of multiphase flowmeters used in the oil and gas industry to measure the amount of extracted hydrocarbons directly at wells without preliminary separation and performing the function of operational accounting raised the question of their metrological support in accordance with the requirements of regulatory documents of the sphere of state regulation in this field of measurements. His decision was to create a reference base, the basis of which was the State primary special standard for units of mass flow of gas-liquid mixtures GET 195-2011 and a verification scheme for measuring multiphase flow rates, regulated by GOST 8.637-2013. When transmitting units of volume and mass flow of a multiphase mixture with the required accuracy, the main problem is the difficulty of reproducing and maintaining stability of several flow parameters at once – mass flow and content of liquid components (water and oil simulator) and volume flow of the gas phase. It should also be borne in mind that test programs for the purpose of approving the type of multiphase flow measuring instruments, as well as verification and calibration methods, provide for changing the modes of reproduction of a gas-liquid mixture, covering the measurement ranges of multiphase flowmeters. Such standards used in practice represent a very complex measuring system consisting of storage tanks for components, supply pumping and compressor units, control equipment, mixers and separators, measuring instruments for the physical parameters of multiphase flow components and an automated control system. Given the high cost of multiphase standards, when creating them, effective methods and methods should be used to reproduce the flow of a multiphase mixture with specified parameters, as well as to make a fairly rapid transition to the next mode provided by the program or methodology, which will reduce the time and production costs for the procedure of transferring units of measurement from the standard to the working measuring instrument. This article describes a method for reproducing the flow rate of a gas-liquid mixture according to the original technological scheme introduced during the development of the 1st category standard. Constructive solutions are presented that increase the efficiency of the liquid component separation apparatus to increase the dosing accuracy, as well as expand the range of reproduction of the flow rate and parameters of the multiphase flow, ensuring the consistency of the composition of the liquid mixture at a given regime. An original rational method of compressing and maintaining the pressure of the gas phase is described, which allows you to quickly switch to the next mode, confirmed by the results of experimental studies of the standard.

The article analyzes the current state of development of dimensionally stable tubular elements (TE) and technological problems arising during their production. It is shown that along with empirical methods of studying the influence of various technological schemes on the dimensional stability of tubular elements, it is useful to use the optimal temperature-time mode for heat treatment and, based on it, select the optimal technological scheme. Modeling and determination of the optimal mode of heat treatment of tubular elements were performed. The study of the TE heat treatment mode was carried out in two stages, first by methods of mathematical modeling and optimization, and then by empirical enumeration of various technological schemes. At the first stage, the material properties, which are parameters of the mathematical model, were studied, and the optimal curing modes were calculated. At the second stage, the calculated optimal curing modes were supplemented with various technological methods that cannot be mathematically modeled, and a study was carried out on the influence of the resulting combined heat treatment mode on the geometric characteristics and dimensional stability of carbon fiber TE. The mathematical model of the process of heat treatment and curing of TE in a heat chamber, when heated by a heating air flow, is a system of differential equations: thermal conductivity and curing kinetics. A mathematical model of the process of heat treatment of tubular elements manufactured by the winding method is proposed, the ways of optimizing the curing mode of carbon fiber TE are shown. A numerical calculation of temperature-conversion fields during curing and calculation of optimal curing modes of tubular elements are performed taking into account various process schemes. The values of heat capacity C and thermal conductivity l are calculated depending on the temperature T, the degree of curing b and the filling coefficient g, Безфітингова ферма з вуглепластику Безфітингова ферма з вуглепластику Безфітингова ферма з вуглепластику the power of heat release W and the thermal effect of the curing reaction Q of carbon fiber. Optimum curing modes for a plate made of composite polymer material are obtained, calculated from the data obtained as a result of studying material samples. Temperature-time curing modes are obtained, which are optimized for different thicknesses of the studied material. The statistical hypothesis about the significance of the influence of the process flow chart and reinforcement pattern on the wall thickness of a tubular element and its compressive strength was proved by the dispersion analysis method. The influence of process flow charts and heat treatment modes on the geometric and mechanical characteristics of carbon fiber tubular elements of aircraft truss structures was studied. The statistical hypothesis about the significance of the influence of the process flow chart and reinforcement pattern on the deviation of the wall thickness of tubular elements and their strength characteristics was tested. The significance of the influence of process flow charts with different heat treatment modes on the average wall thickness of a carbon fiber tubular element was statistically proven.

Small Blade and Bladelet Production in Central Asia at the Turn of MIS 7 and 6: Cores from Kulbulak Layer 23

We describe 27 parallel, narrow-faced, and burin-cores for small blades and bladelets from Kulbulak layer 23, Western Tien Shan, excavated in 2016 and 2017. In terms of typology, flat-faced (longitudinal and transverse), prismatic (carinated, subconical, and subcylindrical), and narrow-faced cores (including burin[1]cores) were identified. Scar pattern analysis suggests that regardless of the typological affiliation of cores, a uniform technological scheme was used—staggered sequence of blanks. This Middle Paleolithic non-prismatic pattern probably indicates the initial steps in the formation of a technology that would subsequently influence the Middle Paleolithic blade industries in western Central Asia and become one of the sources for the regional Upper Paleolithic in the second half of MIS 3. It is concluded that small blade technology emerged within Middle Paleolithic industries of western Central Asia at the turn of MIS 7 and 6. In the Obi-Rakhmat industry (MIS 5a), this technology is represented in its fully developed form.

Combined study of Au-bearing arsenopyrite of orogenic gold deposits (NE Asia): High resolution 3D X-ray computed tomography, LA-ICP-MS, EMPA data

The distribution of gold in small acicular arsenopyrite of a pyrite-arsenopyrite association from Suzdal (Eastern Kazakhstan), Olympiada (Yenisei Ridge, Russia) and large pseudorhombic arsenopyrite crystals from Bazovskoe (Yakutia, Russia) orogenic-type deposits were investigated. On orogenic gold deposits in NE Asia, occurring mainly in black shales, two productive stages of ore deposition are distinguished, which correspond to two morphological varieties of arsenopyrite. At the early stage, fine-grained acicular-prismatic arsenopyrite with invisible gold was deposited; at the late stage, tabular arsenopyrite in association with free visible gold was formed. The samples of gold-bearing arsenopyrite were analyzed using Scanning Electron Microscopy, Electron Microprobe Analyses, Atomic Absorption and Laser Ablation Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry in combination with High Resolution 3D X-ray Computed Tomography (HRXCT). HRXCT does not destroy the studied mineral during the investigation. That technique permits to do an estimation of the amount of gold inclusions in minerals or host rocks and draw reasonable conclusions about the gold content of the ores, to study in detail the distribution patterns of metal inclusions (associated with certain minerals, cracks, crystal growth faces, etc.) and to determine the form of the gold. It can be used to understanding of the genesis of productive mineral associations, and to developing optimal technological schemes for gold extraction

This article presents the results of medium-carbon ferromanganese smelting from domestic manganese ores under large-scale laboratory conditions. Data on the production and demand for refined ferromanganese produced during the last successful year are provided. Since 2020, refined ferromanganese production has decreased by approximately 1,2 million tons, which is 18% lower than in 2019. This decline was caused by the outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19), which began in China in 2019, and the subsequent worldwide pandemic, as well as geopolitical conflicts (Russia — Ukraine), which started in 2021. Kazakhstan has significant reserves of manganese ores, which are in ferrous-manganese and carbonate states. X-ray phase analysis showed that manganese in the ores is represented by hydroxide, pyrolusite, and iron oxide. Medium-carbon ferromanganese was smelted in an electric furnace with a transformer power of 0.1 MVA. The chemical composition of the resulting alloy is as follows, %: Mn – 80-85; Si – 0,05-0,25; Fe – 1,8-3,0; P – 0,05-0,09; C – 1,5-2,0; MnO – 20-25; SiO₂ – 13,94-14,5; CaO – 23,35-24,85; MgO – 12,5-14,0. Thus, an optimal technological scheme for the production of a wide range of manganese ferroalloys was developed.

Thermodynamic analysis of interactions between the components of the charge during the production of metallurgical silicon

The theoretical foundations of the recovery process and the technology of silicon smelting in electric arc furnaces are considered. The results of a study of thermodynamics, reaction kinetics, and mechanisms of the melting process are presented. Production issues are covered: charge preparation, smelting, refining, gas purification. Physicochemical models of the carbothermal process were developed, proposed and tested under industrial conditions (Tau-Ken-Temir LLP), which made it possible to assess the influence of the specified technological parameters of the smelting (chemical composition and loading coefficients of charge components, temperature) on silicon recovery and grade. To obtain the base material, metallurgical grade silicon is used, obtained by melting in ore-thermal furnaces (RTP). In this regard, the research goal is determined, which consists in studying ways to improve the quality (chemical purity) of silicon, and methods for achieving it at this stage of the study - modeling the carbothermal process for producing silicon.The article describes the main mechanism for the recovery of silica in the furnace, presents one of the designs of the furnace and the technological scheme for the production of silicon. The author suggested studying the process of producing metallurgical silicon in RTP using the HSC Chemistry software package. A model of silicon smelting in RTP was formed, which adequately describes the technological process for producing metallurgical silicon.

Quality of high-carbon wire rod from steel obtained by various smelting methods

This article considers modern methods of steel production and their impact on the quality of wire rod made from grade 80 steel and applied for hardware products manufacturing. From research data on the chemical composition of wire rod produced by the oxygen-converter method and in an arc steelmakingfurnace, it can be noted that, in general, the chemical composition of the wire rod meets the requirements, while the steel produced in the converter contains less phosphorus, sulfur and non-ferrous metal impurities and nitrogen. This fact should have a beneficial effect on the ductility of the wire during further cold drawing. The analysis of the quality indicators of the finished wire rod produced from billets obtained according to various technological schemes showed that the integral quality indicator is at the same level when using optimal modes of out-of-furnace processing and continuous casting of steel.

Improving the technology for restoring worn parts based on cold plastic deformation

Technological control scheme for forming worn parts during their restoration by deforming broaching is proposed. Particular attention is paid to the study of the stress-strain state, which provided the conditions for creating the necessary plastic flow of the product material towards the worn areas and made it possible to compensate the wear amount in these areas of the product and provide an allowance for subsequent machining. Taking into account the peculiarities of parts restoration technological process, the relationship between the required circumferential strain of the outer surface and the total tension on the hole is established. The influence of the number of deforming elements that perform the required deformation on the accumulated strain on the inner surface of the part was investigated. This made it possible to establish that the maximum accumulated strain of the inner surface is provided by the maximum number of elements with a minimum tension on the element. On the outer surface, the value of the accumulated strain does not depend on the number of deforming elements, but is determined only by the total tension and the workpiece thickness. Based on the simulation of deforming broaching in a wide range of changes in operating parameters, tool geometry and workpiece thickness, an analytical dependence was obtained to determine the angle that ensures the absence of axial strains when the workpiece is deformed. The necessary broaching modes and tool geometry were determined, which will ensure the required dimensions of the machined or restored part.
