Evaluation of curve-fitting method for estimating the formation temperature from logging data. Chiso heiko ondo suitei shuho de aru curve fitting ho no jitsu data ni yoru kensho to hyoka  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

The present paper explains the curve-fitting method developed as a method to estimate the geothermal equilibrium forming temperature. In the present method, that temperature is estimated by obtaining, by non-linear lest square, the model parameter to minimize the sum of remainders squared between the temperature actually measured after a lapse of certain time from the stoppage of mud water circulation and that calculated on the basis of Middleton model, mathematical model of temperature equilibrium well. In the Horner's plotting method currently in general use, temperature recovery data during a long period of about 120h are required for estimating the geothermal equilibrium forming temperature. However in the curve-fitting method, it is confirmed from the actual well data that the well recovery temperature is estimable from three logging data during 24h after the stoppage of mud water circulation within the largest error of 5%, and during 12h within 10%. 7 refs., 5 figs., 1 ...

The feasibility study was conducted on a model project in Vietnam, aimed at solving the environmental pollution problems resulting from use of coal by demonstrating and disseminating the Japan's environmental technologies in the Southeast Asian countries. The feasibility study was conducted for the Cua Ong Coal Preparation Enterprise, which has the largest coal preparation capacity in Vietnam and port facilities. It is treating raw coal from 10 coal mines for classification and preparation, and shipping coal of various types that meet the standards for domestic use and export. The survey results point out that unrecovered coal remains in waste water discharged from the coal preparation plants to pollute the sea area, and that quantity of the refuse increases because of the unrecovered coal it contains. The environmental technologies needed to introduce include modification to variable wave pattern type jigging separator, refuse height measuring instrument and automatic ...

Life estimation of high-voltage electric cable. Koden prime atsu cable no jumyo yosoku  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

An explanation is given of life estimation of CV cable and OF cable which are generally used as high-voltage power cable. CV cable uses XLPE (crosslined polyethylene) and OF cable uses oil-immersed paper as electrical insulators. Relating to CV cable, voltage deterioration due to partial discharge and electric treeing occurs in a high electric field, and by extrapolating the data of up to the actually used electric field in this high electric field, the life is estimate (there is an n-power deterioration law which is V{sup n} = t between breakdown voltage V and electric applied time t). Validity of this extrapolation, however, is a future issue. Further, in the use under the immersion condition, water tree deterioration phenomena influenced by water content and the electric field which are characteristic of CV cable are seen even in the actually used low electric field, and the life index becomes considerably small. Relating to OF cable, failures caused by the life of electrical ...

Elasto-plastic analysis of settlement of pile foundations. Part 2. ; Prediction of immediate settlement of building. Kui kiso no dansosei chinka kaiseki. 2. ; Kenchikubutsu no sokuji chinka yosoku hoho  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

When the foundations of the building are designed and worked, the prediction calculation of immediate settlement of the building exercised practically is to calculate assuming the earth is a linear elastic body, but the actual stress-strain relationship of the earth is nonlinear and rigidity of the earth becomes lower as strain (or stress) increases. Hence in order to grasp the actual settling behavior of the earth, it is necessary to elucidate the nonlinear relationship between stress and strain. In this article, a prediction method of building settlement is introduced which uses an analytical technique of the multi-layered earth by the linear elasticity theory and takes into consideration strain dependency of rigidity of the earth. Part of the conclusion is as follows which has been obtained by studying the settling behaviors observed in examples of vertical loading tests of the pile foundations and the elasto-plastic settlement analytical method of the pile foundations; the settling ...

FY 1998 annual report on the survey on development, introduction and promotion of urban type multipurpose geothermal utilization techniques; 1998 nendo toshigata tamokuteki chinetsu riyo gijutsu no kaihatsu, donyu, sokushin ni kansuru chosa hokokusho  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

Introduction of geothermal heat pump systems, which depend on temperature differential, is investigated for urban areas, which have large energy demands. Results of the surveys on the current situations of geothermal heat pump (GHP) systems indicate that they have already numbered 300,000 units in USA and totaled more than 50,000 units in Switzerland and Northern European countries, and that they are increasing at an annual rate of higher than 10%. The results also indicate that introduction of these systems are well feasible in Japan, which generally has better topographical conditions than American and European countries, and the GHP system with vertical ground heat exchanger is investigated for its topographical and environmental considerations. These systems could annually abate approximately 52 million tons of CO2 (4.3% decrease), if disseminated to all households. They are also expected to help control the heat island phenomenon, and reduce peak power consumption. The ...

Development and introduction on substation machinery foundation design support system; Hendensho kikai kiso sekkei shien system no kaihatsu/donyu  

Energy Technology Data Exchange (ETDEWEB)

Substation machinery foundation works have some features such as a number of work cases second look cases in design, and so forth. The Tohoku Electric Power Co., Inc. started the development of a system generally supporting the substation machinery foundation design to practical use the Engineering Work Station (EWS) introduced to the civil engineering department as a part of improvement of management efficiency. At first, rigid foundation design support system (TRAD) and slab foundation design support system (KANSAS-IN) automatically conductible with from preparation of design and amount calculation sheet to preparation of design drawing was developed, which was began to operate since March of 1996. As a result, the rigid foundation design became able to execute fully automatic works from preparation of design and its drawing to amount calculation. And, on the slab foundation design, three dimensional FEM analysis could be executed for shorter time, which made wide range of time ...
