The crusher hammers made of Hadfield steel have typical y low service life of less than 40 hours. To solve the problem, a kind of bimetal crusher hammers made of high chromium cast iron （HCCI） and low al oy steel （LAS） has been successful y developed by using liquid-liquid composite casting. The microstructure and composite interface bonding was analyzed using optical microscope, SEM, EDX and XRD. Micrographs indicate that the composite interface is metal urgical y bonded with a zigzag shape across the boundary and without unbound region or void. After heat treatment, the composite hammers have shown excellent properties. The hardness of HCCI is at least 63 HRC and its αk is greater than 3.5 J？cm-2; the hardness of LAS is greater than 35 HRC and its αk is no less than 80 J？cm-2. Diffusion of elements takes place at the interface and forms a transition region. The micro hardness increases from LAS to the interface and then to HCCI. Wear comparison was made separately between the bimetal composite hammer and a Hadfield steel hammer in two quarries of Jilin province and Liaoning province. The results showed that the liquid-liquid bimetal composite hammers did not have the fal ing off of hammer head or impact fracture phenomenon, and their service life was 3.75 times as long as that of the Hadfield steel hammers.展开更多

Numerical modeling can offer close observation on the working behaviors by visualizing internal pressure status as well as provide reliable performance predictions for large-diameter DTH hammers to which conventional empirical and experimental approaches cannot be applied. In this study, CFD simulations coupled with dynamic meshing are utilized to simulate the air flow and piston movement inside the large-diameter DTH hammers. The numerical modeling scheme is verified against a theoretical model published in literature. Effects of structural parameters on hammer performance, including piston mass, piston upper-end diameter, piston groove diameter, and lengths of intake and exhaust stroke in both front and rear chambers, are analyzed in detail by virtue of sets of numerical simulations. The simulations suggest that changing the intake stroke of front chamber has a negligible influence on hammer performance while increasing the piston groove would lower all the four indicators of hammer performance, including impact energy, impact frequency, maximum stroke, and air consumption rate. Changing the other structural parameters demonstrates mixed effects on the performance indicators. Based on the numerical simulations, a large GQ-400 DTH hammer has been designed for reduced air consumption rate and tested in a field drilling practice. The air drilling test with the designed hammer provided a penetration rate 1.7 times faster than that of conventional mud drilling.展开更多

The simulation results are consistent with hammer wear failure caused by pyrite impact. Then we proposed corrective measures to prolong hammer life-span. Results of the production test in the Ganbazi Coal Preparation Plant showed that non-clearance hammers can avoid wear erosion, and adding steel bonded tungsten carbides F3002 prolonged the hammer life- span. The effect of austenitic manganese steel work-hardening was not prominent. Therefore, the hammer failure was mainly caused by superficial abrasion instead of fatigue cracks appearing when grains acted on the hardening layer.展开更多

However, corresponding experimental studies on existing hammers for directional drilling have rarely been reported, and a model for evaluating their output performance is absent. This study proposes a novel structure of self-rotating pneumatic hammer(NSH)with a built-in rotational mechanism, which converts partial impact energy of the piston to rotate the drill bit and, consequently, enables dual functions of impact and rotate drill bit. The energy is converted via a screw key-groove mechanism, and the wedge-shaped teeth mechanism ensures that the drill bit rotates clockwise during the piston moves downward. The computational fluid dynamics method is applied to simulate the dynamic response of airflow and piston during the operation of Φ127NSH.Meanwhile, a test bench is established to record data concerning chamber pressure and piston displacement, as well as recording its operational status and rock fragmentation during drilling into granite. The results showed that the maximum error between simulated and experimental data is 8.2%.The Φ127NSH successfully achieves dual impact and rotary drilling functions, and granite smoothly feeds and forms a continuous shear rock zone. In addition, the effects of torque load, engagement distance in rotation sleeves, and well deviation angle towards the performance of NSH were studied in detail. The designed Φ127NSH operates at an impact velocity of 3.98 m/s, impact frequency of 12.55 Hz, and rotational speed of 29.51 r/min under a mass-flow rate of 0.18 kg/s, torque load of 400 N·m, engagement distance of 40 mm, and well deviation angle of 0°. The torque load adversely affects the NSH output performance. Increasing the engagement distance improves impact performance while reducing rotational performance. The performance variation of the NSH is minimal when drilling directional wells with varying deviation angles.展开更多

The evaluation results are obtained by analyzing shut-in water hammer pressure signal. The field-sampled water hammer signal is often disturbed by noise interference. Noise interference exists in various pumping stages during water hammer diagnostics, with significantly different frequency range and energy distribution. Clarifying the differences in frequency range and energy distribution between effective water hammer signals and noise is the basis of setting specific filtering parameters, including filtering frequency range and energy thresholds. Filtering specifically could separate the effective signal and noise, which is the key to ensuring the accuracy of water hammer diagnosis. As an emerging technique, there is a lack of research on the frequency range and energy distribution of effective signals in water hammer diagnostics. In this paper, the frequency range and energy distribution characteristics of field-sampled water hammer signals were clarified quantitatively and qualitatively for the first time by a newly proposed comprehensive water hammer segmentation-energy analysis method. The water hammer signals were preprocessed and divided into three segments, including pre-shut-in, water hammer oscillation, and leak-off segment. Then, the three segments were analyzed by energy analysis and correlation analysis. The results indicated that, one aspect, the frequency range of water hammer oscillation spans from 0 to 0.65 Hz, considered as effective water hammer signal. The pre-shut-in and leak-off segment ranges from 0 to 0.35 Hz and 0-0.2 Hz respectively. Meanwhile, odd harmonics were manifested in water hammer oscillation segment, with the harmonic frequencies ranging approximately from 0.07 to 0.75 Hz. Whereas integer harmonics were observed in pre-shut-in segment, ranging from 6 to 40 Hz. The other aspect, the energy distribution of water hammer signals was analyzed in different frequency ranges. In 0-1 Hz, an exponential decay was observed in all three segments. In 1-100 Hz, a periodical energy distribution was observed in pre-shut-in segment, an exponential decay was observed in water hammer oscillation, and an even energy distribution was observed in leak-off segment. In 100-500 Hz, an even energy distribution was observed in those three segments, yet the highest magnitude was noted in leak-off segment. In this study, the effective frequency range and energy distribution characteristics of the field-sampled water hammer signals in different segments were sufficiently elucidated quantitatively and qualitatively for the first time, laying the groundwork for optimizing the filtering parameters of the field filtering models and advancing the accuracy of identifying downhole event locations.展开更多

Effects of structural parameters on hammer performance, including piston mass, piston upper-end diameter, piston groove diameter, and lengths of intake and exhaust stroke in both front and rear chambers, are analyzed in detail by virtue of sets of numerical simulations. The simulations suggest that changing the intake stroke of front chamber has a negligible influence on hammer performance while increasing the piston groove would lower all the four indicators of hammer performance, including impact energy, impact frequency, maximum stroke, and air consumption rate. Changing the other structural parameters demonstrates mixed effects on the performance indicators. Based on the numerical simulations, a large GQ-400 DTH hammer has been designed for reduced air consumption rate and tested in a field drilling practice. The air drilling test with the designed hammer provided a penetration rate 1.7 times faster than that of conventional mud drilling.

文摘To prolong the life-span of crush hammers in the pyrite concentrate workplace of Ganbazi Coal Preparation Plant of Chongqing Nantong Mining Ltd., we used a progressive damage constitutive model based on the ductile and shear damage fracture energy to analyze the hammer wear failure caused by the impact and abrasion on the hammer surface by pyrite, and carried out simulation analysis with the explicit algurithm on hammer leftovers from the plant during the process of coarser pyrite comminution. The simulation results are consistent with hammer wear failure caused by pyrite impact. Then we proposed corrective measures to prolong hammer life-span. Results of the production test in the Ganbazi Coal Preparation Plant showed that non-clearance hammers can avoid wear erosion, and adding steel bonded tungsten carbides F3002 prolonged the hammer life- span. The effect of austenitic manganese steel work-hardening was not prominent. Therefore, the hammer failure was mainly caused by superficial abrasion instead of fatigue cracks appearing when grains acted on the hardening layer.

文摘Pneumatic down-the-hole hammer, serving as rock-breaking tool, possesses appeal for directional drilling due to its high rate of penetration. However, corresponding experimental studies on existing hammers for directional drilling have rarely been reported, and a model for evaluating their output performance is absent. This study proposes a novel structure of self-rotating pneumatic hammer(NSH)with a built-in rotational mechanism, which converts partial impact energy of the piston to rotate the drill bit and, consequently, enables dual functions of impact and rotate drill bit. The energy is converted via a screw key-groove mechanism, and the wedge-shaped teeth mechanism ensures that the drill bit rotates clockwise during the piston moves downward. The computational fluid dynamics method is applied to simulate the dynamic response of airflow and piston during the operation of Φ127NSH.Meanwhile, a test bench is established to record data concerning chamber pressure and piston displacement, as well as recording its operational status and rock fragmentation during drilling into granite. The results showed that the maximum error between simulated and experimental data is 8.2%.The Φ127NSH successfully achieves dual impact and rotary drilling functions, and granite smoothly feeds and forms a continuous shear rock zone. In addition, the effects of torque load, engagement distance in rotation sleeves, and well deviation angle towards the performance of NSH were studied in detail. The designed Φ127NSH operates at an impact velocity of 3.98 m/s, impact frequency of 12.55 Hz, and rotational speed of 29.51 r/min under a mass-flow rate of 0.18 kg/s, torque load of 400 N·m, engagement distance of 40 mm, and well deviation angle of 0°. The torque load adversely affects the NSH output performance. Increasing the engagement distance improves impact performance while reducing rotational performance.

文摘The differences in damage values,residual stresses,microstructure and mechanical properties of Ti–6Al–4V alloy under hammer forging and press forging were explored through physical experiments and numerical simulations.The results showed that the temperature field and equivalent strain field of forgings under the hammer forging process were more uniformly distributed,resulting in smaller surface cracks and better residual stress distribution.The impact dynamic loading of hammer forging leads to forgings with higher dislocation densities,while the stabilized strain rate of press forging results in forgings exhibiting finer grain sizes.In this context,the yield strength enhancement of forgings by both processes was nearly identical,while the forgings demonstrated more excellent elongation under the hammer forging process.Additionally,increasing the number of blows in the hammer forging process or enhancing the loading rate in the press forging process can optimize the residual stress distribution of the forgings while simultaneously promoting dislocation multiplication and grain refinement.
文摘A total of 393 potholes(368 fluvial and 25 marine potholes)were studied at seven different sites in both the fluvial and marine environments.Diverse bedrock properties and large-scale delivery of tools and grinders regulate the dynamic growth,truncation,and amalgamation of potholes.Therefore,the principal objectives of the study are(i)to examine the relationship between the growth of potholes and substrate lithological with structural characteristics(applying geospatial and Schmidt hammer for rock strength analysis)and(ii)to measure the morphology,and size of tools and grinders,processes of truncation and amalgamation in hydro-geomorphic environment using various indices and field techniques.The result showed that large potholes are stretched in the direction of lineament axes and roughly parallel to the river flow direction.Here,the steady growth of pothole depth-diameter is controlled by active bedrock structures,tools,or grinders,and monsoonal high-velocity bank full discharge.Consequently,the deepening and widening of potholes are relatively slow at Bindu,Deuli,and marine beach Neil Island due to fewer structures and little supply of tools or grinders.In small stretches,(Damodar,Subarnarekha,and Rarhu)canyons and gorge-like features(bedrock incision)are formed at Rajrappa,Bhakuyadi,and Guridih sites due to cyclic truncation and amalgamation.Truncation and amalgamation processes restrict the vertical depth threshold value of potholes within 3m,particularly at Rajrappa,Bhakuyadi,and Guridih sites.Scientific study of the pothole's dynamic growth is greatly necessary for the different environmental engineering and river hydraulic projects like excavation,dredging,and dam or barrage construction.Successively,it is essential to compute the cost of rock excavation or dredging,primarily for the mechanical strength of the bedrock river channel and its stability.

文摘2The joint opening degree is a critical index for assessing the stability of jointed rock masses,which directly impacts the rock mass quality.It is also a key factor influencing the design of tunnel support structures.Hammer and rotary drilling rigs,commonly employed as rock-breaking equipment in tunneling,inevitably encounter joints with varying opening degrees during construction.This research aims to enhance the sampling frequency of hammer and rotary drilling rigs and optimize the joint detection algorithm,thereby equipping these rigs with the capability to detect joint opening degrees.This paper develops high-frequency acquisition equipment for drilling parameters to realize millimeter-level data acquisition.Drilling experiments on jointed rock mass are conducted under conditions corresponding to joint opening degrees of 1 mm,3 mm,and 5 mm.The relationships among joint opening degree,drilling parameters,and width of rock failure region are investigated.A joint opening degree detection algorithm is proposed based on the drilling parameters and moving average filter.The results indicate that the curves of penetration velocity and rotary pressure along the drilling direction exhibit a three-segment distribution,i.e."stable segment-adjustment segment-stable segment".The variation curves of drilling parameters display a“velocity mountain”and a“pressure valley”in the failure region.The relative errors in joint opening degree estimation based on penetration velocity and rotary pressure range from 3.4%to 32%and from 6%to 35%,with average relative errors of 12.95%and 16.24%,respectively.

文摘Water hammer diagnostics is an important fracturing diagnosis technique to evaluate fracture locations and other downhole events in fracturing. The evaluation results are obtained by analyzing shut-in water hammer pressure signal. The field-sampled water hammer signal is often disturbed by noise interference. Noise interference exists in various pumping stages during water hammer diagnostics, with significantly different frequency range and energy distribution. Clarifying the differences in frequency range and energy distribution between effective water hammer signals and noise is the basis of setting specific filtering parameters, including filtering frequency range and energy thresholds. Filtering specifically could separate the effective signal and noise, which is the key to ensuring the accuracy of water hammer diagnosis. As an emerging technique, there is a lack of research on the frequency range and energy distribution of effective signals in water hammer diagnostics. In this paper, the frequency range and energy distribution characteristics of field-sampled water hammer signals were clarified quantitatively and qualitatively for the first time by a newly proposed comprehensive water hammer segmentation-energy analysis method. The water hammer signals were preprocessed and divided into three segments, including pre-shut-in, water hammer oscillation, and leak-off segment. Then, the three segments were analyzed by energy analysis and correlation analysis. The results indicated that, one aspect, the frequency range of water hammer oscillation spans from 0 to 0.65 Hz, considered as effective water hammer signal. The pre-shut-in and leak-off segment ranges from 0 to 0.35 Hz and 0-0.2 Hz respectively. Meanwhile, odd harmonics were manifested in water hammer oscillation segment, with the harmonic frequencies ranging approximately from 0.07 to 0.75 Hz. Whereas integer harmonics were observed in pre-shut-in segment, ranging from 6 to 40 Hz. The other aspect, the energy distribution of water hammer signals was analyzed in different frequency ranges. In 0-1 Hz, an exponential decay was observed in all three segments. In 1-100 Hz, a periodical energy distribution was observed in pre-shut-in segment, an exponential decay was observed in water hammer oscillation, and an even energy distribution was observed in leak-off segment. In 100-500 Hz, an even energy distribution was observed in those three segments, yet the highest magnitude was noted in leak-off segment. In this study, the effective frequency range and energy distribution characteristics of the field-sampled water hammer signals in different segments were sufficiently elucidated quantitatively and qualitatively for the first time, laying the groundwork for optimizing the filtering parameters of the field filtering models and advancing the accuracy of identifying downhole event locations.

文摘In order to accommodate higher speeds,heavier axle weights,and vibration damping criteria,a new floating slab structure was proposed.The new type of floating slab track structure was composed of three prefabricated floating slabs longitudinally interconnected with magnesium ammonium phosphate concrete(MPC).This study investigated the dynamic performance of the structure.We constructd a full-scale indoor experimental model to scrutinize the disparities in the impact performance between a longitudinally connected floating slab track and its longitudinally disconnected counterpart.Additionally,a long-term fatigue experiment was conducted to assess the impact performance of longitudinally connected floating slab tracks under fatigue loading.The findings are described in the following.1)The new structure effectively suppresses ground vibrations,exhibiting a well-balanced energy distribution profile.However,the imposition of fatigue loading leads to a reduction in the damping performance of the steel spring damping system,thereby reducing its capacity to attenuate structural vibrations and leading to an increase in ground vibration energy;2)After 107 loading cycles,the attenuation rate of the vibration acceleration for the MPC increases by 171.9%.Conversely,at the corresponding disconnected location,the attenuation rate of ground vibration acceleration decreases by 65.6%.In conclusion,longitudinally connected floating slab tracks exhibit superior vibration reduction performance.While the vibration reduction performance of longitudinally connected floating slab tracks may diminish to some extent during long-term service,these tracks continue to meet specific vibration reduction requirements.
