The environmental safety of soil has become a severe problem in China with the boost of industrialization. Polluted-soil thermal remediation is a kind of suitable remediation technology for large-scale heavily contaminated industrial soil, with the advantages of being usable in off-grid areas and with a high fuel to energy conversion rate. Research on energy-saving strategies is beneficial for resource utilization. Focused on energy saving and efficiency promotion of polluted-soil in situ thermal remediation system, this paper presents three energy-saving strategies: Variable-condition mode (VCM), heat-returning mode (HRM) and air-preheating mode (APM). The energy analysis based on the first law of thermodynamics and exergy analysis based on the second law of thermodynamics are completed. By comparing the results, the most effective part of the energy-saving strategy for variable-condition mode is that high savings in the amount of natural gas (NG) used can be achieved, from 0.1124 to 0.0299 kg·s−1 in the first stage. Energy-saving strategies for heat-returning mode and air-preheating mode have higher utilization ratios than the basic method (BM) for the reason they make full use of waste heat. As a whole, a combination of energy-saving strategies can improve the fuel savings and energy efficiency at the same time.
This paper presents a dynamic health intelligent evaluation model proposed to analyze the health deterioration of satellites under time-varying and extreme thermal loads. New definitions such as health degree and failure factor and new topological system considering the reliability relationship are proposed to characterize the dynamic performance of health deterioration. The dynamic health intelligent evaluation model used the thermal network method (TNM) and fuzzy reasoning to solve the problem of model missing and non-quantization between temperature and failure probability, and it can quickly evaluate and analyze the dynamic health of satellite through the collaborative processing of continuous event and discrete event. In addition, the temperature controller in the thermal control subsystem (TCM) is the target of thermal damage, and the effects of different heat load amplitude, duty ratio, and cycle on its health deterioration are compared and analyzed.
