Research and Implementation of SVDU Simulator Based on Emulation Technology by Yanqun Wu, Mingxing Liu, Qi Chen, Xu Zhang, Xufeng Tian, Yu Zhang, Meiyuan Chen

“…In order to meet the needs of nuclear power safety-level digital control system (DCS), like designing verification, operator training, and accidental drills, for the SVDU in the NASPIC platform developed independently by China National Nuclear Corporation, a virtual embedded system technology based on the micro x86 industrial host is proposed to make software simulation to the SVDU physical controller with exactly the same hardware appearance of the original one. The SVDU stimulator realized by this research can achieve 100% simulation of the logical functions of the SVDU physical equipment and the synchronized upgrading function between stimulator and the real equipment. …”

Laboratory Study on Corrosion Mechanism of Production System in In Situ Combustion by Haiyan Jiang, Shibao Yuan, Hao Wang, Boyi Wang, Jiao Wang

“…Because the environment of production system is significantly different in tubing, gas, liquid, and temperature in in situ combustion, the problem of the corrosion should be treated differently according to its origin. Based on the main environment of gas-liquid of the production system of in situ combustion, the corrosion of steel in N80 and J95, which are commonly used in oilfield, is studied in different temperature and pressure conditions. …”
