Abstract: The present disclosure provides an integrated management and control system for a power plant including a power plant cloud edge vertical architecture system, which includes an inter-plant cloud platform, a plurality of intelligent control platforms, and a plurality of plant-side edge cloud platforms. Each intelligent control platform corresponds to one plant-side edge cloud platform and one power plant that are located in the corresponding power plant. The intelligent control platform is positively interconnected to the corresponding plant-side edge cloud platform via a forward isolation device, and the intelligent control platform is inversely interconnected to the corresponding plant-side edge cloud platform via a network switching device and a reverse isolation device. The plant-side edge cloud platform is bidirectionally interconnected to the inter-plant cloud platform over a private power network. The plant-side edge cloud platform is a reduced capacity private edge cloud system for a power plant.

Abstract: In one embodiment, the present invention is a method for producing microfibers comprising the steps of: (a) providing a base material; (b) forming the base material in a ring; (c) gripping opposing ends of the ring; (d) flipping one of the opposing ends relative to the other of the opposing ends, forming an upper portion and a lower portion; (e) folding the upper portion onto the lower portion; (f) stretching the folded upper and lower portions; and (g) repeating steps (d)-(f) as desired.

Abstract: A method and system for generating permissions policies and permission boundary policies are described. The system receives a first request from a central administrator to create a delegated administrator, the first request specifying with one or more access permissions. The system generates a permission boundary policy that specifies the one or more access permissions and a first permissions policy that grants permissions to the delegated administrator to at least one of create an IAM principal with the permission boundary policy or attach a second permissions policy to the IAM principal. An effective permission given to the IAM principal is an intersection of access permissions specified in the first permissions policy and the one or more access permissions in the permission boundary policy. The system attaches the first permissions policy and the permission boundary policy to the delegated administrator.

Abstract: Fuel distribution devices for use with burners are described herein. One embodiment of a fuel distribution device for a burner can include an inlet end having a disc-like annular cover with inlet openings, an outlet end having a disc-like annular support plate with groups of distribution openings, and cylindrical inner and outer walls. These components can define a distribution channel and the device can further include fuel feeding tubes extending from the inlet openings into the distribution channel, and each of the fuel feeding tubes can divide into branch pipes extending through the distribution channel to the annular support plate. Moreover, the branch pipes extending from a same feeding tube can be in communication with distribution openings within a same group, and the branch pipes can be coiled spirally about the inner wall and connected to distribution openings at an inclined angle such fuel ejected therefrom has a tangential velocity.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a flame detection device comprising a flame signal receiver (1), a flame signal passage (11) and a flame signal transmitting mechanism, characterized in that, the flame signal passage (11) passes through a furnace shell (12) into inner of the furnace and comprises an outside-furnace passage portion (11a) and an inside-furnace passage portion (11b); wherein a pressure-resistant optical mechanism (10) is arranged at the outermost end of the outside-furnace passage portion, said pressure-resistant optical mechanism hermetically and transparently separate the flame signal receiver from the flame signal passage; and wherein the inside-furnace passage portion (11b) is provided with a cooling mechanism (19).

Abstract: A gasification apparatus for solid fuel, especially an apparatus for producing syngas by pressurized gasification of coal powder, including a gasification chamber (II) and a syngas cooling and purification chamber (III). The inner wall of the gasification chamber is a water-cooling wall (4). The inner side of the water-cooled wall is evenly coated with a layer of fire-resistant material (16). There is an annular cavity between the water-cooling wall of the gasification chamber and the furnace body. A syngas quencher, a vertical pipe (22), a gas distribution device (24), a defoaming device, and a dewatering and deashing device (21) are provided in the syngas cooling and purification chamber. The apparatus has a simple structure and is easy to operate. A high temperature gasification method for dry powder of carbonaceous material comprises spraying the combustible material and oxygen into the furnace and followed by ignition.
