文摘The agitated thin-film evaporator(ATFE)plays a crucial role in evaporation and concentration processes.The design of the scraper for processing high-viscosity non-Newtonian fluids in the ATFE is complex.The intricate scraping action of the scraper introduces gas into the liquid film,leading to the formation of a gas ring along the wall.This process subsequently reduces wall heat flow,thereby affecting heat transfer.Computational fluid dynamics(CFD)is used to simulate the flow field of the non-Newtonian fluid in the ATFE.The investigation focuses on understanding the mechanism behind the formation of gas rings in the liquid film and proposes methods to prevent their formation.The results demonstrate a transition of the gas from a gas ring suspended in the liquid to a gas ring attached to the wall after entering the liquid film.The scraping action around the circumference of the scraper helps to expel gas rings,indicating the necessity of adjusting the scraper arrangement and increasing the frequency of scraping to enhance gas ring expulsion.The spiral motion of the bow wave serves as the source of gas entry into the liquid film.Therefore,the rotation speed can appropriately increase to reduce the size of the bow wave,thereby inhibiting the formation of the gas ring from the source.This research investigates the mechanism of gas ring generation and expulsion,offering theoretical guidance for processing high-viscosity non-Newtonian materials in the flow field of the ATFE.
文摘Manufacturers must identify and classify various defects in automotive sealing rings to ensure product quality.Deep learning algorithms show promise in this field,but challenges remain,especially in detecting small-scale defects under harsh industrial conditions with multimodal data.This paper proposes an enhanced version of You Only Look Once(YOLO)v8 for improved defect detection in automotive sealing rings.We introduce the Multi-scale Adaptive Feature Extraction(MAFE)module,which integrates Deformable ConvolutionalNetwork(DCN)and Spaceto-Depth(SPD)operations.This module effectively captures long-range dependencies,enhances spatial aggregation,and minimizes information loss of small objects during feature extraction.Furthermore,we introduce the Blur-Aware Wasserstein Distance(BAWD)loss function,which improves regression accuracy and detection capabilities for small object anchor boxes,particularly in scenarios involving defocus blur.Additionally,we have constructed a high-quality dataset of automotive sealing ring defects,providing a valuable resource for evaluating defect detection methods.Experimental results demonstrate our method’s high performance,achieving 98.30% precision,96.62% recall,and an inference speed of 20.3 ms.

文摘For hot rolling of titanium alloy large rings,evolution laws of stress and strain fields in rings with various sizes were explored and compared based on a reliable coupled thermo-mechanical three-dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model.The results show that for forming processes of different rings,as γ^-(the equivalent distribution ratio of feed amount per revolution of a process) decreases,the final peak Mises stress may transfer from the biting point at the driver roll side to that at the idle roll side,and the final peak equivalent plastic strain may transfer from the outside surface to the inside surface;as L^- (the equivalent deformation zone length of a process) increases,the final peak Mises stress may appear in the middle layer.The final positions of peak Mises stress and equivalent plastic strain are the combined effects of the above two aspects.In the deformation zone of a deformed ring,the surface layers are in the 3D compressive stress state,while the middle layer is in the 1D compressive and 2D tensile stress state or 2D compressive and 1D tensile stress state;the whole ring is in the 1D compressive and 2D tensile strain state.

文摘In this paper,we first generalize the constant dimension and orbit codes over finite fields to the constant rank and orbit codes over finite chain rings.Then we provide a relationship between constant rank codes over finite chain rings and constant dimension codes over the residue fields.In particular,we prove that an orbit submodule code over a finite chain ring is a constant rank code.Finally,for special finite chain ring F_(q)+γF_(q),we define a Gray mapφfrom(F_(q)+γF_(q))^(n)to F^(2n)_(q),and by using cyclic codes over F_(q)+γF_(q),we obtain a method of constructing an optimum distance constant dimension code over F_(q).

文摘In this paper, a generalization of the class of semicommutative rings is investigated. A ring R is called left GWZI if for any a ∈ R, l(a) is a GW-ideal of R. We prove that a ring R is left GWZI if and only if S3(R) is left GWZI if and only if Vn(R) is left GWZI for any n≥2.
