Welding thermal cycle simulation with the heat input of 12~25 kJ/cm and practical welding were undertaken to investigate the weldability of a Zr-Ti microalloyed pipeline steel X120. The microstructure in the simulated coarse-grained heat-affected zone was predominantly bainite. The Vickers hardness and room temperature impact toughness of simulated coarse-grained heat-affected zone is 276~297 (HV10) and 208~225 J, respectively. These results indicated that the X120 steel had good weldability. Practical plate welding with the heat input of 21 kJ/cm also showed that the Zr-Ti microalloyed pipeline steel X120 had high yeild strength (895 MPa) and low temperature (-30°C) impact toughness (183 J, 204 J and 208 J in the fusion line, coarse-grained heat-affected zone and fine-grained heat-affected zone, respectively).
The direct-drive permanent-magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) system with full power converter can achieve wind maximum power point tracking (MPPT) in wide range variation of wind-speed. In this paper an operating characteristic of PMSG is investigated, a MPPT strategy based on hill climbing method for PMSG are present. Simulation and experimental results show that the controllers can extract maximum wind power in good dynamic performance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
