    In order to explore the potential of fruit peel waste conversion to produce highvalue platform chemicals, the hydrothermal conversion of citrus peel to furfural (FF) and 5hydroxymethylfurfural (5HMF) was conducted in the choline chloride (ChCl)/ carboxylic acid based deep eutectic solvents (DES) system. Conclusions can be drawn from experiments in xylose and glucose: The carboxylic acid performance was ranked lactic acid > acetic acid > glycolic acid. The optimal molar ratio of choline chloride to carboxylic was 1:2. The optimal water content of solvent system was 20%. The effects of temperature and time on citrus peel conversion were studied based on the optimized operating conditions. Since the pectin component in the citrus peel was mainly converted to 5HMF in DES, the yield of the peel converted to 5HMF was significantly higher than that of FF. The maximum mass yield of 5HMF from citrus peel was 8.6% (molar yield was 43.1%). The maximum mass yield of furfural reached 2.4% (molar yield was 19.1%).

    This paper studied the simulation of methanol synthesis from CO2 and green hydrogen, and proposed an indicator of the energy storage density of CO2. Then influences of multiple variables on the performance indicators were analyzed. The results show that the systematic energy efficiency and energetic yield of methanol increase with the increase in the electrolysis efficiency, per pass CO2 conversion rate, electrolysis pressure, and initial CO2 pressure. However, these indicators decrease with the increase in the methanol synthesis pressure. The variations of the energy storage density of CO2 with these variables are opposite to the systematic energy efficiency and energetic yield. The electrolysis efficiency and per pass CO2 conversion rate are the sensitive and key variables of this process. Under the optimal conditions, the systematic energy efficiencies based on the higher and lower heating values are 68.0% and 59.6%, respectively, the energy storage density of CO2 is 6.07 kWh/kg, and the energetic yield of methanol is 0.108 kg/(kW·h), indicating the powertomethanol system using CO2 as feedstock is unsatisfactory in term of systematic energy efficiency, but has significant advantage in the energy storage density.

    Aiming at the longterm operation of the mediumdeep coaxial borehole heating system which has issues of cold accumulation in rocksoil and decrease in the heat extraction capacity of the system, in this research, a numerical heat transfer model for MDGSHPs was established, the governing equations were discretized based on the finite difference method, and the accuracy of the model was verified with experimental data. This research separately studied the effects of heat storage temperature (Tin) and flow rate of hot water injection (G) on BHE heat extraction rate (Q), system energy consumption(W) and the coefficient of system performance (CSP) in the next heating period. The results show that the first step to realize heat storage is to determine the threshold value for the temperature of heat storage water. Below the threshold, heat storage will not be achieved, and the threshold temperature for this study is 50 °C. After operating for 500 hours, when the inlet water temperature increases from 50 °C to 80 °C, Q, W and CSP increase by 54.41 kW, 8.96 kW and 0.17. Furthermore, when the flow rate of hot water injection increases from 1 kg/s to 7 kg/s, the growth rate of Q, W and CSP are 7.71%, 6.34% and 1.19%. Therefore, a small flow rate with high temperature of heat storage water is recommended during the heat storage period which will improve heat storage effect and reduce energy consumption. This study provides a theoretical basis for heat storage in MDGSHPs.

    The abandoned mines contains abundant geothermal resources.This article takes the mine water of gob area as the research object; in order to ensure the stability of pumping temperature during the heating season, the layout and parameter sensitivity of pumpingrecharging wells of water source heat pump of abandoned mine are studied. Firstly, based on the Darcy's law and the theory of heat transfer in porous media, the twodimensional numerical calculation models of the coupled multiphysical fields of the pumpingrecharged well are established.Secondly, the pumping water's temperature variation of 14 arrangement forms of pumpingrecharging wells are analyzed while the theoretical models are employed. The most reasonable arrangement form can be selected according to the degree of the heat transfixion. Finally, when the selected pumping recharging wells'arrangement form is taken into consideration, the effects of different factors including the recharge temperature, the pumpingrecharging water's flow rate, the wells' spacing, the hydraulic slope, the aquifer thickness and the porosity on the pumping temperature are discussed. The results of the analysis show that the well placement method of triangle 4 only decreases the pumping temperature by 0.148 K at the end of the system operation, and the occurrence of "thermal penetration" is the least and the well placement method is the most reasonable. The occurrence of "heat transfixion" in the aquifer is more sensitive to parameters such as pumping flow rate, well spacing, hydraulic gradient, and aquifer thickness, while it is less sensitive to recharge temperature and porosity.

    The downstream wind turbines suffered by the deflected wake are subjected to unbalanced aerodynamic loads and resulting in a significant increase in fatigue loads. Two NREL 5 MW wind turbines have been adopted to study the influence of the yaw control of upstream wind turbine on the aerodynamic characteristics of downstream wind turbine under staggered arrangement, based on open source software FAST.Farm. The results show that the downstream wind turbine is gradually in the core area of wind velocity deficit with the increase of yaw angle of the upstream wind turbine, the reduction of rotor power of the downstream wind turbine is significantly increased, and the rotor thrust suffered by the downstream wind turbine is gradually reduced. The yaw control of the upstream wind turbine will significantly affect the fluctuation characteristics of the aerodynamic load of the downstream wind turbine. When the yaw angle of the upstream wind turbine is 40°, the standard deviation of the flapwise moment at the blade root of the downstream wind turbine increases by 50.5% compared with the case that the upstream wind turbine is not yawed. This study can provide a reference for the whole wind farm control collaborative optimization and aerodynamic characteristics analysis under yaw inflow.

    The wide shallow bucket foundation with concrete arc transition section is subjected to significantly larger wave loads which will easily affect the vibration response of the entire structural system. For an offshore wind turbine (OWT) supported by bucket foundation, a finite element model of the whole wind turbine was established based on the measured vibration data, and then the influence of wave loads on the vibration response of the tower top of the OWT supported by bucket foundation was simultaneously analyzed through the established finite element model. It is shown in the analysis results that the vibration response of the tower top caused by wind load is greater than that caused by wave load during the operation period. Subsequently, the influence of the wave load can be ignored compared to the wind load when the wave height is small. In addition, the impact of wave loads on the vibration response of the tower top increases with the increase of external wind speed and wave height and the corresponding impact on the vibration displacement response of the tower top is greater than the vibration acceleration.

    With the largescale integration of wind power, power system subsynchronous oscillation (SSO)events occur frequently, which seriously threatens the safe and stable operation of the power grid. The accurate detection of SSO in wind power gridconnected system is of great significance to ensure the stable operation of the power systems. Most of the existing SSO detection methods are singlechannel methods, which are difficult to take into account the global SSO characteristics of the systems. Therefore, this paper proposes a SSO detection method for wind power gridconnected system based on multivariate empirical mode decomposition (MEMD). Firstly, the multivariate empirical mode decomposition is performed on the measurements of wind power gridconnected points, and then the IMF components with SSO mode are screened out via TeagerKaiser energy operator (TKEO). Then, the HilbertHuang transform (HHT) is used to identify the SSO frequency and damping ratio. Finally, the proposed detection method is analyzed by the improved 4machine 2area system simulation data, and the results verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

    As the interface of microgrid photovoltaic power generation system, inverter control strategy directly affects the stability of gridconnected system. The stability of gridconnected inverter is easily affected by the internal and external parameters of the system, especially when the gridconnected inverter adopts LCL filter, the design and operation conditions of the system become more and more complex. In this paper, an active disturbance rejection control strategy based on weighted average current is proposed to solve the disturbance problem of highorder gridconnected inverter system. Firstly, based on the WACC control principle, the system is reduced from third order to first order. At the same time, the internal and external disturbances of the inverter system are regarded as generalized disturbances of a single structure, and the control law is used to adjust the parameters of the closedloop system. Finally, the effectiveness of the control strategy is verified by simulation and experiment.

Firstly, a reward and punishment mechanism based on the reported electricity quantity and the actual trading quantity is established. Transaction price can be adjusted by credit factor. Secondly, a Stackelberg game model with MGCO as leader and MGs as followers is developed. The upper level minimizes fluctuation of power for microgrid cluster, where a contract mechanism of transaction is established to adjust basic transaction prices within the cluster. In the lower level, the cost of MG operation is minimized. Each MG acts as the follower responding to the dayahead trading price and decides the electricity of exchange power with MGCO. Finally, the study prove that the presented transaction mechanism effectively suppresses the false information.
