Numerical simulation study on suppression effect of water mist on PMMA combustion under external radiant heat flux
Numerical model was built with fire dynamic simulator and theocratical simulation was carried out to investigate the suppression effect of water mist on ignition and combustion process of typical solid material polymethyl methacrylate under external radiant heat flux. Characteristic parameters such as ignition time, surface temperature, heat release rate and temperature distribution of flame central plane during ignition and combustion process under different thermal radiant fluxes were obtained and compared with experimental results. The suppression effect of spray droplets on ignition and combustion process was analyzed and discussed. The results show the theoretical calculations of combustion characteristic parameters are in good agreement with experimental measurements. Water mist droplets can effectively delay the ignition time. Quantitative data proves that the water mist flow rate at 0.9 L/(min·m2) can delay the ignition time of samples by about 1,100 s while the radiant heat flux is 50 kW/m2. The simulation results can provide theoretical support and data reference for typical solid material fire prevention and fire extinguishment in practice
Potential of Core-Collapse Supernova Neutrino Detection at JUNO
JUNO is an underground neutrino observatory under construction in Jiangmen, China. It uses 20kton liquid scintillator as target, which enables it to detect supernova burst neutrinos of a large statistics for the next galactic core-collapse supernova (CCSN) and also pre-supernova neutrinos from the nearby CCSN progenitors. All flavors of supernova burst neutrinos can be detected by JUNO via several interaction channels, including inverse beta decay, elastic scattering on electron and proton, interactions on C12 nuclei, etc. This retains the possibility for JUNO to reconstruct the energy spectra of supernova burst neutrinos of all flavors. The real time monitoring systems based on FPGA and DAQ are under development in JUNO, which allow prompt alert and trigger-less data acquisition of CCSN events. The alert performances of both monitoring systems have been thoroughly studied using simulations. Moreover, once a CCSN is tagged, the system can give fast characterizations, such as directionality and light curve
Detection of the Diffuse Supernova Neutrino Background with JUNO
As an underground multi-purpose neutrino detector with 20 kton liquid scintillator, Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is competitive with and complementary to the water-Cherenkov detectors on the search for the diffuse supernova neutrino background (DSNB). Typical supernova models predict 2-4 events per year within the optimal observation window in the JUNO detector. The dominant background is from the neutral-current (NC) interaction of atmospheric neutrinos with 12C nuclei, which surpasses the DSNB by more than one order of magnitude. We evaluated the systematic uncertainty of NC background from the spread of a variety of data-driven models and further developed a method to determine NC background within 15\% with {\it{in}} {\it{situ}} measurements after ten years of running. Besides, the NC-like backgrounds can be effectively suppressed by the intrinsic pulse-shape discrimination (PSD) capabilities of liquid scintillators. In this talk, I will present in detail the improvements on NC background uncertainty evaluation, PSD discriminator development, and finally, the potential of DSNB sensitivity in JUNO
