Given the limitation and disadvantages of the existing simulation methods, a coupled CFD–DEM–CVD multi-physical field model for particle-coating simulations has been established taking into account the velocity field, temperature field, concentration field, and deposition model. In this model, gas behavior and chemical reactions are simulated in the CFD frame based on the conservation laws of mass, momentum, and energy. The particle behavior is simulated in the DEM frame based on the gas–solid interphase force model and contact force model. The deposition behavior is simulated in the CVD frame based on the particle movement–adhesion–deposition model. The coupled model can be implemented in Fluent-EDEM software with their user definition function and application programming interface. The particle coating process involving the pyrolysis of acetylene was investigated, and the effect of bed temperature and inlet gas velocity on deposition rate and coating efficiency were investigated based on the proposed model with adjustable deposition coefficients. Both the average deposition layer mass and the average deposition layer thickness were found to be proportional to the elapsed time and increased at the rate of about 1.05 × 10^-2 mg/s and 3.45 × 10^-4 mm/s, respectively, setting the inlet gas velocity to 11 m/s and bed temperature to 1680 K. A higher temperature and larger inlet gas velocity lead to a larger deposition rate, but the coating efficiency decreases because of limits imposed by the chemical reaction. At a bed temperature of 1280 K, the average deposition rate is 7.40 × 10?3 mg/s when the inlet gas velocity is set to 11 m/s, which is about double the deposition rate when the inlet gas velocity is set as 5 m/s. The proposed model can provide some guidance for the operating conditions and parameters design of the spouted bed in actual coating settings and can also be further developed as a basic model of mechanisms to integrate detailed information across multiple scales.展开更多

A 2D axisymmetric unstable model was built, which included convection, conduction, diffusion, densification reactions in the pores and the evolution of the porous medium. The multi-physical field coupling model was solved by finite element method (FEM) and iterative calculation. The time evolution of the fluid, temperature and preform density field were obtained by the calculation. It is indicated that convection strongly affects the temperature field. For the preform of carbon/carbon composites infiltrated for 100 h by TCVI, the radial average densities from simulation agrees well with those from experiment. The model is validated to be reliable and the simulation has capability of forecasting the process.展开更多

文摘The implementation of isolated heterologous monitoring systems for spatially distant borehole deployments often comes with substantial equipment costs,which can limit the effectiveness of geohazard mitigation and georisk management efforts.To address this,we have developed a novel monitoring system that integrates fiber Bragg grating(FBG)and microelectromechanical system(MEMS)techniques to capture soil moisture,temperature,sliding resistance,strain,surface tilt,and deep-seated inclination.This system enables real-time,simultaneous data acquisition and cross-validation analyses,offering a costeffective solution for monitoring critical parameters in geohazard-prone areas.We successfully applied this integrated monitoring system to the Xinpu landslide,an active super-large landslide located in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area(TGRA)of China.The resulting strain profile confirmed the presence of two shallow secondary sliding surfaces at depths of approximately 7 m and 12 m,respectively,in addition to the deep-seated sliding surface at a depth of28 m.The lower secondary sliding surface was activated by extreme precipitation,while the upper one was primarily driven by significant changes in reservoir water levels and secondarily triggered by concentrated rainfalls.Anti-slide piles have remarkably reinforced the upper moving masses but failed to control the lower ones.The gap between the pile heads and the soil amplified the rainwater erosion effect,creating a preferential channel for rainwater infiltration.Multi-physical measurements revealed a mixture of seepage-driven and buoyancy-driven behaviors within the landslide.This study offers an integrated dual-source multi-physical monitoring paradigm that enables collaborative management of multiple crucial boreholes on a large-scale landslide,and contributes to the evaluation and improvement of engineering measures in similar geological settings.

文摘The nonlinear traveling wave vibration of rotating ferromagnetic functionally graded(FG)cylindrical shells under multi-physics fields is investigated.Grounded in the Kirchhoff-Love thin shell theory,the geometric nonlinearity is incorporated into the model,and the constitutive equations are derived.The physical parameters of functionally graded materials(FGMs),which exhibit continuous variation across the thickness gradient,are of particular interest.The nonlinear magneto-thermoelastic governing equations are derived in accord with Hamilton's principle.The nonlinear partial differential equations are discretized with the Galerkin method,and the analytical expression of traveling wave frequencies is derived with an approximate method.The accuracy of the proposed method is validated through the comparison with the results from the literature and numerical solutions.Finally,the visualization analyses are conducted to examine the effects of key parameters on the traveling wave frequencies.The results show that the factors including the power-law index,temperature,magnetic field intensity,and rotating speed have the coupling effects with respect to the nonlinear vibration behavior.

文摘Particle coating is a very important step in many industrial production processes as the particle coating layers may fix surfaces with unique advantages. Given the limitation and disadvantages of the existing simulation methods, a coupled CFD–DEM–CVD multi-physical field model for particle-coating simulations has been established taking into account the velocity field, temperature field, concentration field, and deposition model. In this model, gas behavior and chemical reactions are simulated in the CFD frame based on the conservation laws of mass, momentum, and energy. The particle behavior is simulated in the DEM frame based on the gas–solid interphase force model and contact force model. The deposition behavior is simulated in the CVD frame based on the particle movement–adhesion–deposition model. The coupled model can be implemented in Fluent-EDEM software with their user definition function and application programming interface. The particle coating process involving the pyrolysis of acetylene was investigated, and the effect of bed temperature and inlet gas velocity on deposition rate and coating efficiency were investigated based on the proposed model with adjustable deposition coefficients. Both the average deposition layer mass and the average deposition layer thickness were found to be proportional to the elapsed time and increased at the rate of about 1.05 × 10^-2 mg/s and 3.45 × 10^-4 mm/s, respectively, setting the inlet gas velocity to 11 m/s and bed temperature to 1680 K. A higher temperature and larger inlet gas velocity lead to a larger deposition rate, but the coating efficiency decreases because of limits imposed by the chemical reaction. At a bed temperature of 1280 K, the average deposition rate is 7.40 × 10?3 mg/s when the inlet gas velocity is set to 11 m/s, which is about double the deposition rate when the inlet gas velocity is set as 5 m/s. The proposed model can provide some guidance for the operating conditions and parameters design of the spouted bed in actual coating settings and can also be further developed as a basic model of mechanisms to integrate detailed information across multiple scales.

文摘Compared with the surface,the deep environment has the advantages of allowing“super-quiet and ultra-clean”-geophysical field observation with low vibration noise and little electromagnetic interference,which are conducive to the realization of long-term and high-precision observation of multi-physical fields,thus enabling the solution of a series of geoscience problems.In the Panyidong Coal Mine,where there are extensive underground tunnels at the depth of 848 m below sea level,we carried out the first deep-underground geophysical observations,including radioactivity,gravity,magnetic,magnetotelluric,background vibration and six-component seismic observations.We concluded from these measurements that(1)the background of deep subsurface gravity noise in the long-period frequency band less than 2 Hz is nearly two orders of magnitude weaker than that in the surface observation environment;(2)the underground electric field is obviously weaker than the surface electric field,and the relatively high frequency of the underground field,greater than 1 Hz,is more than two orders of magnitude weaker than that of the surface electric field;the east-west magnetic field underground is approximately the same as that at the surface;the relatively high-frequency north-south magnetic field underground,below 10 Hz,is at least one order of magnitude lower than that at the surface,showing that the underground has a clean electromagnetic environment;(3)in addition to the highfrequency and single-frequency noises introduced by underground human activities,the deep underground space has a significantly lower background vibration noise than the surface,which is very beneficial to the detection of weak earthquake and gravity signals;and(4)the underground roadway support system built with ferromagnetic material interferes the geomagnetic field.We also found that for deep observation in the“ultra-quiet and ultra-clean”environment,the existing geophysical equipment and observation technology have problems of poor adaptability and insufficient precision as well as data cleaning problems,such as the effective separation of the signal and noise of deep observation data.It is also urgent to interpret and comprehensively utilize these high-precision multi-physics observation data.

文摘To prepare Carbon/Carbon (C/C) composites with advanced performance, the thermal gradient chemical vapor infiltration (TCVI) process has been optimized by simulation. A 2D axisymmetric unstable model was built, which included convection, conduction, diffusion, densification reactions in the pores and the evolution of the porous medium. The multi-physical field coupling model was solved by finite element method (FEM) and iterative calculation. The time evolution of the fluid, temperature and preform density field were obtained by the calculation. It is indicated that convection strongly affects the temperature field. For the preform of carbon/carbon composites infiltrated for 100 h by TCVI, the radial average densities from simulation agrees well with those from experiment. The model is validated to be reliable and the simulation has capability of forecasting the process.

文摘In this study,a novel multi-physics multi-scale model with the dilute multicomponent phase-field method in three-dimensional(3D)space was developed to investigate the complex microstructure evolu-tion in the molten pool during laser welding of Al-Li alloy.To accurately compute mass data within both two and three-dimensional computational domains,three efficient computing methods,including central processing unit parallel computing,adaptive mesh refinement,and moving-frame algorithm,were uti-lized.Emphasis was placed on the distinctive equiaxed-to-columnar-to-equiaxed transition phenomenon that occurs during the entire solidification process of Al-Li alloy laser welding.Simulation results indi-cated that the growth distance of columnar grains that epitaxially grew from the base metal(BM)de-creased as the nucleation rate increased.As the nucleation rate increased,the morphology of the newly formed grains near the fusion boundary(FB)changed from columnar to equiaxed,and newly formed equiaxed grains changed from having high-order dendrites to no obvious dendrite structure.When the nucleation rate was sufficiently high,non-dendritic equiaxed grains could directly form near the FB,and there was nearly no epitaxial growth from the BM.Additionally,simulation results illustrated the com-petition among multiple grains with varying orientations that grow in 3D space near the FB.Finally,how equiaxed grain bands develop was elucidated.The equiaxed band not only hindered the growth of early columnar grains but also some of its grains could grow epitaxially to form new columnar grains.These predicted results were in good agreement with experimental measurements and observations.

文摘Fine particulate matter produced during the rapid industrialization over the past decades can cause significant harm to human health.Twin-fluid atomization technology is an effective means of controlling fine particulate matter pollution.In this paper,the influences of the main parameters on the droplet size,effective atomization range and sound pressure level(SPL)of a twin-fluid nozzle(TFN)are investigated,and in order to improve the atomization performance,a multi-objective synergetic optimization algorithm is presented.A multi-physics coupled acousticmechanics model based on the discrete phase model(DPM),large eddy simulation(LES)model,and Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings(FW-H)model is established,and the numerical simulation results of the multi-physics coupled acoustic-mechanics method are verified via experimental comparison.Based on the analysis of the multi-physics coupled acoustic-mechanics numerical simulation results,the effects of the water flow on the characteristics of the atomization flow distribution were obtained.A multi-physics coupled acoustic-mechanics numerical simulation result was employed to establish an orthogonal test database,and a multi-objective synergetic optimization algorithm was adopted to optimize the key parameters of the TFN.The optimal parameters are as follows:A gas flow of 0.94 m^(3)/h,water flow of 0.0237 m^(3)/h,orifice diameter of the self-excited vibrating cavity(SVC)of 1.19 mm,SVC orifice depth of 0.53 mm,distance between SVC and the outlet of nozzle of 5.11 mm,and a nozzle outlet diameter of 3.15 mm.The droplet particle size in the atomization flow field was significantly reduced,the spray distance improved by 71.56%,and the SPL data at each corresponding measurement point decreased by an average of 38.96%.The conclusions of this study offer a references for future TFN research.

文摘Thermosyphon loops are widely used in cooling systems.However,such distributed thermal management systems lack the ability to actively control the coolant flow in each parallel branch.An effective method for addressing this is to control the coolant flow in each branch using a solenoid valve.However,the existing valves do not satisfy the requirements for fast switching,low power,low pressure loss,and miniaturization.Therefore,in this study,a low-power-consumption miniature solenoid valve(LMSV)is proposed for use in thermal management systems.The key novelty is that the valve is designed with a suitably sized permanent magnet(PM)to allow the spool to continue working without consuming electrical energy.To achieve low flow resistance,a straight-through design is employed in the valve with the electromagnetic actuator located inside the valve shell.Multiphysical coupling analysis is performed to investigate its performance.The influence of the PM dimensions and current on the magnetic field distribution and electromagnetic force is studied.The effects of these key parameters on the flow field and pressure loss are also analyzed.Because the LMSV is sensitive to temperature,the switching time and energy consumption at different working temperatures are investigated.Experimental test platforms are constructed.A valve switching time of as short as 3 ms,pressure loss of 200 Pa at 0.92 L/min,and energy consumption of approximately 1.55 J during the opening and closing processes are achieved.The novel solenoid valve proposed in this study offers fast switching,low power consumption,low pressure loss,and miniaturization to meet the requirements of thermal management systems.

文摘With rapid advancements in physics and particle medicine,the domestic accelerator industry has grown rapidly.During the 12th Five-Year Plan period,the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences took on a plurality of accelerator projects.Nevertheless,the stability of the coupler,a crucial system within the cavities of accelerators,has encountered certain difficulties.The alumina ceramics,which constitute the core component of the coupler,are increasingly prone to breakage and solder joint failures due to their inferior environmental adaptability,inadequate mechanical properties,and high gas emissions.Conversely,with the advancements in medical technology and materials science,zirconia ceramics have emerged as a prospective remedy for these problems.This type of ceramic is highly esteemed for its outstanding environmental adaptability,remarkable mechanical properties,and excellent high-temperature resistance,exhibiting extraordinary value in dental applications.This study investigates the use of zirconia ceramics in a 162.5 MHz 3-1/8"standard ceramic window,combining experimental data with finite element RF simulations and multi-physics analysis.A new coupler featuring a zirconia ceramic window was tested on a Quarter-Wave Resonator,demonstrating excellent alignment between electromagnetic simulations and measurement results.This reveals the substantial application potential and practical worth of the zirconia ceramic material in the context of accelerators.

文摘Boron-doped diamond(BDD)is a well-known anode material with a high pollutant degradation ability for electrochemical oxidation wastewater treatment.Nevertheless,the cost of production and mechanical strength of BDD membranes remain unsatisfactory.Magnetic BDD particles derived from industrial waste may represent a promising alternative to BDD membranes,although the challenge remains in assembling these particles into a usable electrode.In this study,magnetic BDD particles were attracted to a Ti/RuO_(2)-IrO_(2)electrode using a magnet,thus constituting a novel 2.5-dimensional(2.5D)electrode.To ascertain the structure-activity relationship of the novel electrode,essential characterizations,multi-physics simulations,pollutant degradation and electrosynthesis experiments were conducted.The results indicate that an appropriate quantity of BDD particles(0.1 g/cm^(2))can enhance the number of active sites by approximately 20%.A strong synergistic effect was observed between the Ti/Ti/RuO_(2)-IrO_(2)and BDD particles in the degradation of various pollutants,including azo dye,p-benzoquinone,succinic acid and four kinds of real wastewaters,as well as glycerol conversion.The joint active sites on the interface between Ti/RuO_(2)-IrO_(2)and BDD particles,as well as the inner active sites on BDD particles,have been identified as crucial in the mineralization of pollutants and the generation of value-added products.The optimal amount of BDD particles(0.1 g/cm^(2))is sufficient to preserve the joint active sites and to maintain an adequate polarization on the BDD particles.Nevertheless,the hybrid feature of the 2.5D electrode is diminished when a greater quantity of BDD particles(0.3 g/cm^(2))is loaded.

文摘Owing to high thermal stability and large reaction enthalpy,Mg H_(2) has high reaction temperatures and sluggish reaction kinetics in the dehydrogenation process,which consumes lots of energy.To achieve hydrogen release with low energy consumption,accelerated reaction rate,and high heating uniformity,this paper proposes a novel method of graphite responsive microwave-assisted thermal management with NaTiO_(x)H catalyst.A multi-physics model of the 5 wt%NaTiO_(x)H catalyzed Mg H_(2) reactor integrated with a microwave generator is developed to investigate the reaction,heat and mass transfer process of hydrogen release.It is found that the graphite responsive microwave heating method could improve the temperature uniformity of reaction bed,reduce the energy consumption by at least 10.71%and save the hydrogen release time by 53.49% compared with the traditional electric heating method.Moreover,the hydrogen desorption thermodynamics could be improved with the increase of microwave power.The hydrogen release time is shortened by 19.55%with the increase of 20 W microwave power.Meanwhile,it is also concluded that the microwave excitation frequency of 2.1 GHz and the graphite content of 2 wt%have better heating performance.Therefore,it can be verified that the graphite responsive microwave heating helps to low-energy and accelerated hydrogen release from MgH_(2) hydrogen storage reactor.
