The existing research on improving the hydraulic performance of centrifugal pumps mainly focuses on the design method and the parameter optimization.The traditional design method for centrifugal impellers relies more on experience of engineers that typically only satisfies the continuity equation of the fluid.In this study,on the basis of the direct and inverse iteration design method which simultaneously solves the continuity and motion equations of the fluid and shapes the blade geometry by controlling the wrap angle,three centrifugal pump impellers are designed by altering blade wrap angles while keeping other parameters constant.The three-dimensional flow fields in three centrifugal pumps are numerically simulated,and the simulation results illustrate that the blade with larger wrap angle has more powerful control ability on the flow pattern in impeller.The three pumps have nearly the same pressure distributions at the small flow rate,but the pressure gradient increase in the pump with the largest wrap angle is smoother than the other two pumps at the design and large flow rates.The pump head and efficiency are also influenced by the blade wrap angle.The highest head and efficiency are also observed for the largest angle.An experiment rig is designed and built to test the performance of the pump with the largest wrap angle.The test results show that the wide space of its efficiency area and the stability of its operation ensure the excellent performance of the design method and verify the numerical analysis.The analysis on influence of the blade wrap angle for centrifugal pump performance in this paper can be beneficial to the optimization design of the centrifugal pump.

Longitudinal vibration,torsional vibration and their coupled vibration are the main vibration modes of the crankshaft-sliding bearing system.However,these vibrations of the propeller-crankshaft-sliding bearing system generated by the fluid exciting force on the propeller are much more complex.Currently,the torsional and longitudinal vibrations have been studied separately while the research on their coupled vibration is few,and the influence of the propeller structure to dynamic characteristics of a crankshaft has not been studied yet.In order to describe the dynamic properties of a crankshaft accurately,a nonlinear dynamic model is proposed taking the effect of torsional-longitudinal coupling and the variable inertia of propeller,connecting rod and piston into account.Numerical simulation cases are carried out to calculate the response data of the system in time and frequency domains under the working speed and over-speed,respectively.Results of vibration analysis of the propeller and crankshaft system coupled in torsional and longitudinal direction indicate that the system dynamic behaviors are relatively complicated especially in the components of the frequency response.For example,the 4 times of an exciting frequency acting on the propeller by fluid appears at 130 r/min,while not yield at 105 r/min.While the possible abnormal vibration at over-speed just needs to be vigilant.So when designing the propeller shafting used in marine diesel engines,strength calculation and vibration analysis based only on linear model may cause great errors and the proposed research provides some references to design diesel engine propeller shafting used in large marines.

Currently, relatively large errors are found in numerical results in some low-specific-speed centrifugal pumps with unshrouded impeller because the effect of clearances and holes are not accurately modeled. Establishing an accurate analytical model to improve performance prediction accuracy is therefore necessary. In this paper, a three-dimensional numerical simulation is conducted to predict the performance of a low-specific-speed centrifugal pump, and the modeling, numerical scheme, and turbulent selection methods are discussed. The pump performance is tested in a model pump test bench, and flow rate, head, power and efficiency of the pump are obtained. The effect of taking into consideration the back-out vane passage, clearance, and balance holes is analyzed by comparing it with experimental results, and the performance prediction methods are validated by experiments. The analysis results show that the pump performance can be accurately predicted by the improved method. Ignoring the back-out vane passage in the calculation model of unshrouded impeller is found to generate better numerical results. Further, the calculation model with the clearances and balance holes can obviously enhance the numerical accuracy. The application of disconnect interface can reduce meshing difficulty but increase the calculation error at the off-design operating point at the same time. Compared with the standard k–ε, renormalization group k–ε, and Spalart–Allmars models, the Realizable k–ε model demonstrates the fastest convergent speed and the highest precision for the unshrouded impeller flow simulation. The proposed modeling and numerical simulation methods can improve the performance prediction accuracy of the low-specific-speed centrifugal pumps, and the modeling method is especially suitable for the centrifugal pump with unshrouded impeller.

The remanufacturing blanks with cracks were considered as irreparable. With utilization of detour effect and Joule heating of pulsed current, a technique to arrest the crack in martensitic stainless steel FV520B is developed. According to finite element theory, the finite element(FE) model of the cracked rectangular specimen is established firstly. Then, based on electro-thermo-structure coupled theory, the distributions of current density, temperature field, and stress field are calculated for the instant of energizing. Furthermore, the simulation results are verified by some corresponding experiments performed on high pulsed current discharge device of type HCPD-I. Morphology and microstructure around the crack tip before and after electro pulsing treatment are observed by optical microscope(OM) and scanning electron microscope(SEM), and then the diameters of fusion zone and heat affected zone(HAZ) are measured in order to contrast with numerical calculation results. Element distribution, nano-indentation hardness and residual stress in the vicinity of the crack tip are surveyed by energy dispersive spectrometer(EDS), scanning probe microscopy(SPM) and X-ray stress gauge, respectively. The results show that the obvious partition and refined grain around the crack tip can be observed due to the violent temperature change. The contents of carbon and oxygen in fusion zone and HAZ are higher than those in matrix, and however the hardness around the crack tip decreases. Large residual compressive stress is induced in the vicinity of the crack tip and it has the same order of magnitude for measured results and numerical calculation results that is 100 MPa. The relational curves between discharge energies and diameters of the fusion zone and HAZ are obtained by experiments. The difference of diameter of fusion zone between measured and calculated results is less than 18.3%. Numerical calculation is very useful to define the experimental parameters. An effective method to prevent further extension of the crack is presented and can provide a reference for the compressor rotor blade remanufacturing.

Further development of the photovoltaic industry is restricted by the productivity of mono-crystalline silicon technology due to its requirements of low cost and high efficient photocells.The heat shield is not only the important part of the thermal field in Czochralski(Cz)mono-crystalline silicon furnace,but also one of the most important factors influencing the silicon crystal growth.Large-diameter Cz-Si crystal growth process is taken as the study object.Based on FEM numerical simulation,different heat shield structures are analyzed to investigate the heater power,the melt-crystal interface shape,the argon flow field,and the oxygen concentration at the melt-crystal interface in the process of large Cz-Si crystal growth.The impact of these factors on the growth efficiency and crystal quality are analyzed.The results show that the oxygen concentration on the melt-crystal interface and the power consumption of the heater stay high due to the lack of a heat shield in the crystal growth system.Argon circumfluence is generated on the external side of the right angle heat shield.By the right-angle heat shield,the speed of gas flow is lowered on the melt free surface,and the temperature gradient of the free surface is increased around the melt-crystal interface.It is not conducive for the stable growth of crystal.The shape of the melt-crystal interface and the argon circulation above the melt free surface are improved by the inclined heat shield.Compared with the others,the system pulling rate is increased and the lowest oxygen concentration is achieved at the melt-crystal interface with the composite heat shield.By the adoption of the optimized composite heat shield in experiment,the real melt-crystal interface shapes and its deformation laws obtained by Quick Pull Separation Method at different pulling rates agree with the simulation results.The results show that the method of simulation is feasible.The proposed research provides the theoretical foundation for the thermal field design of the large diameter Cz-Si monocrystalline growth.

To improve the performance of the positive displacement blower,it is imperative to understand the detailed internal flow characteristics or enable a visualization of flow status.However,the existing two-dimensional unsteady,three-dimensional steady or quasi-unsteady numerical simulation and theoretical analysis cannot provide the detailed flow information,which is unfavorable to improve the performance of positive displacement blower.Therefore,the unsteady flow characteristics in a three-lobe positive displacement blower are numerically investigated by solving the three-dimensional,unsteady,compressible Navier-Stokes equations coupled with RNG k-εturbulent model.In the numerical simulation,the dynamic mesh technique and overset mesh updating method are adopted.Due to the air being compressed in the process of the rotors rotating,the variation of the temperature field in the positive displacement blower is considered.By comparing the experimental measurements and the numerical results on the variation of flow rate with the outlet pressure,the maximum relative error of the flow rate is less than 2.15%even at the maximum outlet pressure condition,which means that the calculation model and numerical computational method used are effective.The numerical results show that in the intake region,the fluctuations of the inlet flow are greatly affected by the direction of the velocity vectors.In the exhaust region,the temperature changes significantly,which leads to the increase of the airflow pulsation.Through analysis on the velocity,pressure and temperature fields obtained from the numerical simulations,three-dimensional unsteady flow characteristics in the positive displacement blower are revealed.The studied results will provide useful reference for improving the performance and empirical correction in the design of the positive displacement blower.

The thin-walled tube flexure(TWTF) hinges have important potential application value in the deployment mechanisms of satellite and solar array, but the optimal design of the TWTF hinges haven't been completely solved, which restricts their applications. An optimal design method for the qusai-static folding and deploying of TWTF hinges with double slots is presented based on the response surface theory. Firstly, the full factorial method is employed to design of the experiments. Then, the finite element models of the TWTF hinges with double slots are constructed to simulate the qusai-static folding and deploying non-linear analysis. What's more, the mathematical model of the TWTF flexure hinge quasi-static folding and deploying properties are derived by the response surface method. Considering of small mass and high stability, the peak moment of quasi-static folding and deploying as well as the lightless are set as the objectives to get the optimal performances. The relative errors of the objectives between the optimal design results and the FE analysis results are less than 7%, which demonstrates the precision of the surrogate models. Lastly, the parameter study shows that both the slots length and the slots width both have significant effects to the peak moment of quasi-static folding and deploying of TWTF hinges with double slots. However, the maximum Mises stress of quasi-static folding is more sensitive to the slots length than the slots width. The proposed research can be applied to optimize other thin-walled flexure hinges under quasi-static folding and deploying, which is of great importance to design of flexure hinges with high stability and low stress.

粒子谱演变过程的数值模拟应用于粉体材料的制备过程,对于认识粒子的生成规律、优化生产条件、辅助设计制备设备具有一定的帮助作用.本文在分析制备过程特点的基础上,建立了粒子形成过程的控制方程,并利用Fluent软件对流体流动的控制方程、粒子谱演变方程及粒子的体积浓度方程构成的方程组进行了求解.模拟结果表明,氧化铋粒子的成核与凝并过程都发生在很短的时间内,较小的空间范围内,因此,所得粒子的大小受流体下游冷却系统的影响较小.在这个制备系统中,氧化铋粒子的数值浓度较低,易生成粒度较小的粒子.在反应舟区流体的径向速度较大,在炉子出口处,热迁移速度较大,氧化铋有可能在这2个地方向反应器壁沉积,造成产品产率降低.数值模拟不同制备温度下氧化铋粒度大小与实验结果基本一致.
