Plastic failure of pipelines caused by ground overload is increasing. The one-dimensional model based on mechanical nodal parameters cannot predict the plastic failure characteristics of the three-dimensional structure of the pipeline. In order to predict the evolution of the plastic failure of the pipeline with the yield strength as the evaluation criterion, a multidimensional model is needed to consider the changes in the external loads and the changes in the mechanical properties of the pipeline along the circumferential and axial directions. In this study, a finite element calculation model for a large-diameter gas pipeline underground overload was established to investigate the law of stress change in the plastic zone. The nonlinear surface fitting method was used to establish the angle fitting model of the plastic zone and the depth fitting model of the plastic zone. The variation of the area of the plastic zone was described, and the reliability of the results was verified. In addition, the accuracy of the fitting model and the cost of the finite element calculation were evaluated. The results showed that the pipeline entered plasticity at a ground load of P = 25 MPa, and the plastic zone developed continuously in the axial and circumferential directions as the ground load increased. The angle and depth increased to 36° and 1.8 m, respectively, at P = 50 MPa. The average absolute errors for the plastic zone depth fitting model and the plastic zone angle fitting model were 6.42% and 6.64%, respectively, both of which can provide an accurate description of the plastic zone. The calculation results of the plastic zone angle fitting model could meet requirements of data processing and analysis. The plastic zone depth fitting model could be used to obtain solutions with higher accuracy, but it increases the cost of finite element simulation.

The problem of natural gas pipeline overload failure is of great significance, and the development law of critical mechanical properties of pipelines is of great importance to the safety design of natural gas pipelines. This study establishes a three-dimensional finite element computational model of the pipeline that integrates the changes in axial and circumferential mechanical characteristics, and uses the yield strength, safety factor and ellipticity indexes as criteria to dimensionless the axial depth and circumferential angle of the plastic zone to explore the characteristics of the plastic damage stage of the pipeline. By solving the plastic hazardous zones based on the safety factor, the applicability of the dimensionless parameters is extended to investigate the development laws of the hazardous zones and the correlation mechanism between failure criteria and hazardous zones. The results show that as the ground load increases, the pipeline deformation gradually develops into the plastic stage (P = 16 MPa) and then goes through three deformation stages. With the increase of safety factor, the change trend of the proportion of stage I in the whole loading process decreases to 4 %, the change trend of the proportion of stage III increases significantly to 52 %, while the proportion of stage II shows a change trend of decreasing and then increasing, the proportion of this stage ranges from 30 % to 38 %. Based on the law of variation of axial ellipticity of pipeline section, a high-risk section of pipeline was identified in the range of 0–2 m from the point of maximum local compression strain. The results of the study can serve as a basis for accurate evaluation of the safety status of natural gas pipelines under overload.

In response to the heat loss caused by the temperature difference between the heating pipes and external environment during the pipe transportation, heat contradiction between the total heat loss of the piping system and heat transfer between tubes, as well as economic balance between the cost of heat loss and cost of material loss. Based on TOTS (Two-supply/One-return, triple pipe structure) heat loss theory of the fourth-generation district heating system, this paper optimizes structure of pipes by setting dimensionless characteristic parameters θ and β. Finally, a mathematical model is proposed to calculate economic efficiency of pipeline network by considering the cost of initial construction material loss and operation heat loss of the pipe. Results show that, from energy perspective, comprehensive heat as system energy consumption evaluation index is positively correlated with θ, decreases first and then increases as β increases. Total heat loss of system dominates comprehensive heat. Lowest comprehensive heat of system is 18.12 w/m for θ of 0.1945 and β of 0.0739. From economic perspective, total system loss cost as system economic evaluation index is positively correlated with both θ and β. Total system heat loss cost dominates total system loss cost. Lowest total system loss cost is $29.39/m for θ of 0.1945 and β of 0.0509.

Long-distance energy pipeline pass under roads, subjecting them to repeated stress and posing pipeline safety problems. To simulate the effects of vehicles driving over energy transmission pipeline, this paper examines large-caliber buried pipelines in the suburbs. In this study, a mechanical action model of vehicle-soil-pipeline (VSP) interactions to transform the process of a vehicle driving into the dynamic process of a load changing with time in the specified area was created. The VSP model was used to analyze the influence of moving load and position on the structural characteristics of the pipeline section. An equivalent solution method with high precision and high calculation efficiency was proposed. The results showed that as the loading position approaches the pipeline or the load increases, the stress value at the top of the pipeline gradually exceeded the stress value at the bottom of the pipeline and became the area with the maximum stress value. The minimum stress location also changed from the lower half near the pipeline bottom (Point D-135°) to the upper half near the pipeline top (Point B-45°or Point H-315°). Using the polynomial fitting method, the stress values of the maximum points were equivalently converted. Under the premise of considering pipeline safety, the most suitable functional relationship for the moving load equivalent model was obtained.

Conventional single-phase coolants have not been able to meet the high cooling requirements of electronic devices. Microencapsulated phase change material-latent functional thermal fluid (MPCM-LFTF), a solid–liquid two-phase cooling medium, has the dual advantages of active liquid cooling and passive phase change material cooling. However, it also increases the power consumption in the mini-channels, and the cooling efficiency of MPCM-LFTF in practical applications needs to be further studied. A new MPCM-LFTF was prepared by paraffin melamine resin MPCM and base fluid (absolute ethanol and deionized water) in this work. The heat transfer performance and hydrodynamic properties were investigated using the dimensionless wall temperature and friction factor, respectively. The efficiency factor was introduced to evaluate the cooling efficiency of MPCM-LFTF in mini-channels. The experimental results showed that the addition of MPCM increased the viscosity of MPCM-LFTF, which increased the friction factor. MPCM-LFTF with a mass fraction of 15 % had the best effect of temperature control and reduced the dimensionless wall temperature by 40.5 %. However, considering the characteristics of flow resistance and improved heat transfer, MPCM-LFTF with a mass fraction of 10 % had the highest cooling efficiency and the efficiency factor was 57.0 % higher than that of the base fluid.

In order to meet the working requirements of heat pipes under complex working conditions and high heat flux density, and propose corresponding thermal management solutions. In this paper, the single and hybrid nanofluids (TiO2-H2O, Al2O3-H2O, Al2O3+TiO2-H2O) with mass fraction of 5% under the gradient of gravity heat pipe at 50°, 60°, 70°, 80°, 90° are studied. The changes in thermal resistance, thermal efficiency and equivalent heat transfer coefficient of water were compared with deionized water. The results are as follows: The overall efficiency of gravity heat pipe ranges from 70% to 85%. Compared with deionized water, the nanofluid can effectively improve the heat transfer. At different inclination angles, the hybrid nanofluid with the same mass fraction shows the reverse trend compared with the single nanofluid by decreasing the thermal resistance of the heat pipe and increasing the heat transfer efficiency. At an inclination angle of 70°, the heat transfer efficiency of the nanofluid Al2O3+TiO2-H2O is 6.8% weaker compared to TiO2-H2O and 4.5% weaker compared to Al2O3-H2O. At a tilt angle of 60°, the heat transfer capacity of Al2O3+TiO2-H2O nanofluid increases by 7.3% compared to TiO2-H2O and by 5.6% compared to Al2O3-H2O.

The heat transfer performance of two-phase closed thermosyphon solar collectors (TPCTs) can be improved by adding nanoparticles to the conventional working fluid, but it is necessary to ensure good rheological properties while improving the heat transfer performance. Therefore, spherical (TiO2) nanoparticles with good rheological properties and rod-shaped (Al2O3) nanoparticles with high thermal conductivity were mixed and applied to the TPCT. First, the effects of individual factors such as the concentration of nanoparticles and the operating parameters on the thermal performance of the TPCT were investigated and a regression analysis was performed. Then, the joint effect of inclination angle and filling ratio on the thermal performance of TPCT was further investigated by orthogonal experiment. The results show that doping TiO2 with Al2O3 can further improve the thermal performance of TPCT. For the volume concentration of 0.6% of nanoparticles, filling ratio of 50% and inclination angle of 80°, the best heat transfer performance of TPCT was achieved. Compared with the deionized water (DW), the thermal resistance of the single (TiO2-H2O) and hybrid (Al2O3+TiO2-H2O) nanofluid TPCT is reduced by 10.7% and 13.4%, the thermal efficiency is increased by 11.0% and 13.7%, and the equivalent heat transfer coefficient is increased by 16.2% and 18.7%, respectively.

To optimize the structure of the burner, improve the combustion performance, and reduce the emission of NOx, a self-circulating low NOx combustion technology was used to design a new type of flue gas self-circulating low NOx burner. Based on previous research on the numerical model of combustion and the composition of mixed gas on combustion and NOx emissions, the effect of various factors on the ejection coefficient of the flue gas self-circulating structure was analyzed using the orthogonal test method, and the burner operating parameters, such as preheating temperature and excess air coefficient, were deeply studied through the three-dimensional finite element numerical model in this paper. The results show that the diameter ratio of the nozzle and the length of the cylindrical section of the flue gas self-circulating structure have great influence on its ejection and mixing ability. The optimal ejection coefficient was 0.4829. Overall, the amount of NOx emissions greatly increased from 6.23×10−6 (volume fraction) at the preheating temperature 973 K to 3.5×10−3 at preheating temperature 1573 K. When the excess air coefficient decreased from 1.2 to 1, the maximum combustion temperature decreased from 2036.3 K to 1954.22 K, and the NOx emissions decreased from 352.29×10−6 to 159.73×10−6.
