A Symbol Conditional Entropy-Based Method for Incipient Cavitation Prediction in Hydraulic Turbines

Published on 2025-03-11 by Mengge Lv, Feng Li, Yi Wang, Tianzhen Wang, Demba Diallo, Xiaohang Wang @MDPI

Abstract: The accurate prediction of incipient cavitation is of great significance for ensuring the stable operation of hydraulic turbines. Hydroacoustic signals contain essential information about the turbine’s operating state. Considering that traditional entropy methods are easily affected by environmental noise when the state pattern is chaotic, leading to the extracted cavitation features not being obvious, a Symbol Conditional Entropy (SCE) feature extraction method is proposed to clas[...]


Our summary: Symbol Conditional Entropy method proposed for incipient cavitation prediction in hydraulic turbines using hydroacoustic signals. Improved fault information extraction and trend prediction with reduced uncertainty. Validation with RMSE, MAE, and MAPE showing superior performance compared to traditional methods.

Effects of Adding Al/Fe Content on the Wear Properties in CoCrNi Medium-Entropy Alloy Coatings Deposited by Laser Cladding

Published on 2025-03-10 by Jianyan Xu, Wenping Liang, Qiang Miao, Rutong Wan, Yuanyuan Sun, Jinchuan Wen, Jiayao Yu, Shi Yang @MDPI

Abstract: CoCrNi medium-entropy alloy (MEA) coatings prepared using laser cladding (LC) with unique properties have aroused great interest in recent years and have been widely studied. However, limited studies have been conducted on the effect of adding Al/Fe on the wear properties of CoCrNi MEA coatings prepared on the surface of stainless steel. In this study, AlCoCrFeNi, CoCrFeNi, and CoCrNi MEA LC coatings were prepared on a stainless steel substrate. The grain structures and microscopic morphologies [...]


Our summary: Effects of adding Al/Fe on wear properties of CoCrNi MEA coatings prepared by laser cladding were studied. AlCoCrFeNi, CoCrFeNi, and CoCrNi MEA coatings were characterized, and wear mechanisms were analyzed. Fine-grain and hardness strengthening were identified as main mechanisms.

Abstract: A method and system for predicting the physical and chemical media properties of a porous media by one or more processing units. The method includes performing a pore-network modeling (PNM) and applying a Mayer-Stowe-Princen (MS-P) semi-analytical theory of drainage to the PNM. The MS-P semi-analytical theory of drainage includes constructing pore boundaries from an image of a pore cross-section. Geometrically and thermodynamically-favorable arc meniscus (AM) are identified from a plurality of A[...]

Active thermal switch

Patent published on the 2025-03-06 in WO under Ref WO2025049988 by FLECHT TOBIAS [LU] (Gemer Andrew Josef [us], Cyrus Justin [us], Cyrus Julian [us], Wilson Peter [us], Flecht Tobias [lu])

Abstract: An active thermal switch assembly according to aspects described herein may include a hot plate, a cold plate, and an actuator. The actuator may cause the hot plate and the cold plate to come into mechanical contact, thereby achieving a closed state for the active thermal switch and facilitating conductive heat transfer between the two plates. Convective/radiative heat transfer may have little effect as compared to conductive heat transfer (e.g., as may be the case in environments having reduced[...]


Our summary: Active thermal switch assembly includes hot plate, cold plate, and actuator for conductive heat transfer control. Actuator brings plates into contact for closed state, reducing heat transfer, while introducing gap achieves open state. Separation distance modulation can also control thermal radiation.
