W artykule omówiono zagadnienie spalania gazu ziemnego (będącego mieszaniną gazów) przy użyciu flary w przypadku dużej zawartości w nim składników niepalnych, takich jak azot, hel, dwutlenek węgla itp. Spalanie takich mieszanin we flarze wymaga na ogół wzbogacenia składu mieszaniny przez doprowadzenie do strumienia gazów kierowanych do spalenia dodatkowego strumienia gazów palnych, tak aby skład mieszaniny mieścił się powyżej dolnej granicy palności/wybuchowości. W Polsce do gazów wymagających takiego wzbogacania należy m.in. gaz ze złoża Cychry oraz Sulęcin, w którym zawartość składników niepalnych (azotu) wynosi powyżej 90%, a udział składników palnych jest niski. Zapewnienie całkowitego spalania mieszaniny gazów jest szczególnie istotne w przypadku obecności w niej siarkowodoru, który jest gazem trującym i który należy bezwzględnie zutylizować. Wzbogacenie mieszaniny gazów odbywa się przez wprowadzenie do strumienia gazów kierowanych do flary dodatkowych ilości gazu, na ogół propanu-butanu lub innych gazów palnych. W artykule przedstawiono typową konstrukcję urządzenia do spalania mieszanin gazów stosowanego w przemyśle petrochemicznym i naftowym oraz omówiono przeznaczenie typowych części składowych instalacji. Podano zależność empiryczną pozwalającą na ustalenie palności mieszaniny gazów o podanym składzie zawierającej gazy palne i niepalne. Przedstawiono również algorytm obliczeniowy pozwalający na podanie natężenia przepływu gazu propan-butan, który należy doprowadzić do strumienia gazów, aby mieszanina mogła być efektywnie spalona we flarze. Zaprezentowano wyniki obliczeń dla gazów z dużą zawartością azotu, pochodzących z czterech polskich złóż. Przedstawiony sposób ustalania palności mieszanin gazów lub jej braku oraz natężenia przepływu gazów propan-butan wymaganego do całkowitego spalania tej mieszaniny oparty jest na zależnościach empirycznych i może być pomocny przy planowaniu wspomaganego spalania gazu ziemnego (nienadającego się do zagospodarowania) przy użyciu flary w celu jego utylizacji.

The paper discusses the problems related to the burning of gas mixtures containing flammable and non-flammable gases using a flare. Before being burned, such a gas mixture must be “enriched” with other flammable gases before it can be directed to the flare. In the case of some Polish gas reservoirs such as Cychry or Sulęcin, the composition of the gas mixture doesn’t make it possible to burn it using the flare because the content of inflammable components is too high and the gas mixture is inflammable. The gas from the reservoirs mentioned above contains above 90 percent of nitrogen and small percentages of flammable components. Sometimes, besides nitrogen, the gas mixture contains other inflammable gases like carbon dioxide, helium, and oxygen. Usually, the propane/butane is used for that purpose. The possibility of burning the gas mixture using the flare is particularly important if the toxic gases are present in the mixture – hydrogen sulfide in particular. The propane/butane gases are added to the stream of gas mixture meant for burning using a special appliance. The typical arrangement of a gas-burning installation (i.e. the flare) is shown and the destination of its components is discussed. The empirical formula is provided which allows us to recognize if the gas mixture is flammable or not. The composition of the gas mixture must be known to calculate the propane/butane flow rate, including percentages of flammable and inflammable components. The algorithm constructed for calculating the propane/butane flow rate is presented, which must be maintained to assure the flammability of the gas mixture destined for burning using the flare. The results of the calculations for four gas mixtures from the Polish gas reservoirs are provided. The presented method of determining the flammability of gas mixtures (or its inability to be burned) and the flow rate of the propane/butane mixture required for complete combustion is based on empirical relationships, which are provided in the paper and may be helpful in planning the assisted combustion of low methane gases (not suitable for further use) using a flare.

The past 25 years has seen the increasing use of commercially contracted firms to provide logistic support to Western armies, especially in the British, US, and Australian militaries. The resulting integration of civilian and military logistic personnel and systems to form a joint military-civilian/ public-private integrated logistic system has required a number of adjustments and changes in order for the product to be efficient, effective, and functional and remains a dynamic and ongoing process. In 2018, commercial logistic support is now at the point where certain militaries are deploying non-military logistic contractors forward into 1st and 2nd line logistic support roles. This article will briefly describe the western military trend to commercial logistic contracting, highlighting key points and considerations of which any military will require awareness, if contemplating a similar expansion. It will also emphasise that this growth of civilian contracting has been predicated on low intensity, counterinsurgency conflicts such as deployments in Iraq and Afghanistan. 1st and 2nd line commercial logistic support hence remains completely untested in the event of a potential peer or near-peer conflict. The untested nature of commercial contracting in a forward support role is the greatest potential critical vulnerability of militarycivilian integrated logistic systems, especially in the context of a potential NATO Article V -type conflict. The lessons for the Polish military as it considers greater integration of military and civilian logistics as part of a modernised force structure are clear.

In this paper, a novel probabilistic tracking method is proposed. It combines two competing models: (i) a discriminative one for background classification; and (ii) a generative one as a track model. The model competition, along with a combinatorial data association, shows good signal and background noise separation. Furthermore, a stochastic and derivative-free method is used for parameter optimization by means of the Covariance Matrix Adaptation Evolutionary Strategy (CMA-ES). Finally, the applicability and performance of the particle trajectories reconstruction are shown. The algorithm is developed for NA61/SHINE data reconstruction purpose and therefore the method was tested on simulation data of the NA61/SHINE experiment.

A single crystal of iron (II) carbohydrazide perchlorate [FeII (CHZ)3](ClO4)2 (FeCP), a novel, lead-free, energetic coordination compound, was synthesized and its structure determined by X-ray single crystal diffraction for the frst time. The crystal belongs to the monoclinic system P2(1)/n space group, with a = 1.0066(2) nm, b = 0.8458(2) nm, c = 2.1194(4) nm, β = 100.693(3)° and Z = 4. The central Fe(II) ion is coordinated to three bidentate carbohydrazide units through the carbonyl oxygen atom and an amino nitrogen atom, forming a six-coordinated, non-centrosymmetric complex cation. The thermal analyses by differential scanning calorimetry and thermogravimetry show that the onset temperature of thermal decomposition (152.7 °C) and the critical temperature of thermal explosion of FeCP (161.2 °C) are both much lower than those of other transition metal carbohydrazide perchlorate compounds, and also those of some other primary explosives in service. FeCP has a high enthalpy of combustion, as measured by oxygen bomb calorimetry. The impact, friction and fame sensitivity tests indicate that FeCP is extremely sensitive and hazardous. Unexpected explosions occurred even during the operational processes. In order to explore the intrinsic cause of these explosions, theoretical calculations of the orbital energies were performed based on DTF. These results reveal that the impact sensitivity is positively correlated with the energy gap between HOMO and LUMO: the smaller energy gap results in the higher impact sensitivity.
