Due to the large instantaneous flow rate of servo valve working under specific operating conditions, the temperature of servo valve would reach 120℃ and the valve core and valve sleeve deform in a short amount of time. So the control precision of servo valve significantly decreases and the clamping stagnation phenomenon of valve core appears. In order to solve the problem of degraded control accuracy and clamping stagnation of servo valve under large temperature difference circumstance, the numerical simulation of heat-fluid-solid coupling by using finite element method is done. The simulation result shows that zero position leakage of servo valve is basically impacted by oil temperature and change of fit clearance. The clamping stagnation is caused by warpage-deformation and fit clearance reduction of the valve core and valve sleeve. The distribution roles of the temperature and thermal-deformation of shell, valve core and valve sleeve and the pressure, velocity and temperature field of flow channel are also analyzed. Zero position leakage and electromagnet＇s current when valve core moves in full-stroke are tested using Electro-hydraulic Servo-valve Characteristic Test-bed of an aerospace sciences and technology corporation. The experimental results show that the change law of experimental current at different oil temperatures is roughly identical to simulation current. The current curve of the electromagnet is smooth when oil temperature is below 80℃, but the amplitude of current significantly increases and the hairy appears when oil temperature is above 80℃. The current becomes smooth again after the warped valve core and valve sleeve are reground. It indicates that clamping stagnation is caused by warpage-deformation and fit clearance reduction of valve core and valve sleeve. This paper simulates and tests the heat-fluid-solid coupling of double flapper-nozzle servo valve, and the obtained results provide the reference value for the design of double flapper-nozzle force feedback servo valve.展开更多

The two-dimensional steady state model accounted for separate energy equations for the gas and solid phases coupled with an experimental kinetic model. A lumped kinetic model containing four main species CH4, O2, COx （CO2, CO）, and C2 （C2H4 and C2H6） was used with a plug flow reactor model as well. The results from the model agreed with the experimental data. The model was used to analyze the influence of temperature and feed gas composition on the conversion and selectivity of the reactor performance. The analytical results indicate that the conversion decreases, whereas, C2 selectivity increases by increasing gas hourly space velocity （GHSV） and the methane conversion also decreases by increasing the methane to oxygen ratio.展开更多

The results are basically consistent with relative experimental data. The calculated average heat transfer coefficient reaches 1.7~105 W/（m2. K）. When the equal percentage valve is used, the system needs the minimum requirements of valve control, but brings the highest construction cost. With the： decrease of initial steam pressure, the heat transfer intensity also weakens but the steam flow increases. With the initial water filling coefficient increasing or the temperature of steam supply decreasing, the amount of accumulative steam flow increases with the growth of steam pressure. When the pressure of steam supply drops, the steam flow gradient increases during the maximum opening period of control valve, and causes the maximum steam flow to increase.展开更多

In this paper, according to the different stress states, the coal around the roadway was divided into the seepage open zone, seepage orientation zone, seepage decay zone and original seepage zone along the radial direction of the roadway. The loaded gassy coal was treated as a viscoelastic and plastic softened medium, and the mechanical behaviors of the viscoelastic zone, plastic softened zone and broken zone around the roadway were analyzed with the consideration of the loading creep, softening and expansion effect of the gassy coal. According to the law of conservation of mass and the Darcy law, the flow-solid coupled model for the gas transportation of the coal around the roadway was established considering the dynamic evolution of the adsorption characteristics, porosity and permeability of the coal, and the simulation software COMSOL was utilized to numerically simulate the stress state and gas flow regularity around the coal, which provided meaningful reference for investigating the stability of the coal and rock around the roadway.展开更多

The iterative method decouples the whole equation systems into pressure and saturation/concentration equations, and then solves them in sequence, implicitly and semi-implicitly. At each time step, a series of iterations are computed, which involve solving linearized equations using specific tolerances that are iteration dependent. Following convergence of subproblems, material balance is checked. Convergence of time steps is based on material balance errors. Key components of the iterative method include phase scaling for deriving a pressure equation and use of several advanced numerical techniques. The iterative model is implemented for parallel computing platforms and shows high parallel efficiency and scalability.展开更多

文摘The coupling between heat and pressure is the kernel of inertia friction welding(IFW)and is still not fully understood.A novel 3D fully coupled finite element model based on a plastic friction pair was developed to simulate the IFW process of a Ni-based superalloy and reveal the omnidirectional thermo-mechanical coupling mechanism of the friction interface.The numerical model successfully simulated the deceleration,deformation processes,and peak torsional moments in IFW and captured the evolution of temperature,contact pressure,and stress.The simulated results were validated through measured thermal history,optical macrography,and axial shortening.The results indicated that interfacial friction heat was the primary heat source,and plastic deformation energy only accounted for 4%of the total.The increase in initial rotational speed and friction pressure elevated the peak temperature,reaching a maximum of 1525.5K at an initial rotational speed of 2000 r/min and friction pressure of 400 MPa.The interface heat generation could form an axial temperature gradient exceeding 320K/mm.The radial inhomogeneities of heat generation and temperature were manifested in a concentric ring distribution with maximum heat flux and temperature ranging from 2/5 to 2/3 radius.The radial inhomogeneities were caused by increasing linear velocity along the radius and an opposite distribution of contact pressure,which could reach 1.7 times the set pressure at the center.The circumferential inhomogeneity of thermomechanical distribution during rotary friction welding was revealed for the first time,benefiting from the 3D model.The deflection and transformation of distribution in contact pressure and Mises stress were indicators of plastic deformation and transition of quasi-steady state welding.The critical Mises stress was 0.5 times the friction pressure in this study.The presented modeling provides a reliable insight into the thermo-mechanical coupling mechanism of IFW and lays a solid foundation for predicting the microstructures and mechanical properties of inertia friction welded joints.

文摘The utilization of multi-field coupling simulation methods has become a pivotal approach for the investigation of intricate fracture behavior and interaction mechanisms of rock masses in deep strata.The high temperatures,pressures and complex geological environments of deep strata frequently result in the coupling of multiple physical fields,including mechanical,thermal and hydraulic fields,during the fracturing of rocks.This review initially presents an overview of the coupling mechanisms of these physical fields,thereby elucidating the interaction processes ofmechanical,thermal,and hydraulic fields within rockmasses.Secondly,an in-depth analysis ofmulti-field coupling is conducted from both spatial and temporal perspectives,with the introduction of simulation methods for a range of scales.It emphasizes cross-scale coupling methodologies for the transfer of rock properties and physical field data,including homogenization techniques,nested coupling strategies and data-driven approaches.To address the discontinuous characteristics of the rock fracture process,the review provides a detailed explanation of continuousdiscontinuous couplingmethods,to elucidate the evolution of rock fracturing and deformationmore comprehensively.In conclusion,the review presents a summary of the principal points,challenges and future directions of multi-field coupling simulation research.It also puts forward the potential of integrating intelligent algorithms with multi-scale simulation techniques to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of multi-field coupling simulations.This offers novel insights into multi-field coupling simulation analysis in deep rock masses.
文摘Hydraulic fracturing serves as a critical technology for reservoir stimulation in deep coalbed methane(CBM)development,where the mechanical properties of gangue layers exert a significant control on fracture propagation behavior.To address the unclear mechanisms governing fracture penetration across coal-gangue interfaces,this study employs the Continuum-Discontinuum Element Method(CDEM)to simulate and analyze the vertical propagation of hydraulic fractures initiating within coal seams,based on geomechanical parameters derived from the deep Benxi Formation coal seams in the southeastern Ordos Basin.The investigation systematically examines the influence of geological and operational parameters on cross-interfacial fracture growth.Results demonstrate that vertical stress difference,elastic modulus contrast between coal and gangue layers,interfacial stress differential,and interfacial cohesion at coal-gangue interfaces are critical factors governing hydraulic fracture penetration through these interfaces.High vertical stress differences(>3 MPa)inhibit interfacial dilation,promoting predominant crosslayer fracture propagation.Reduced interfacial stress contrasts and enhanced interfacial cohesion facilitate fracture penetration across interfaces.Furthermore,smaller elastic modulus contrasts between coal and gangue correlate with increased interfacial aperture.Finally,lower injection rates effectively suppress vertical fracture propagation in deep coal reservoirs.This study elucidates the characteristics and mechanisms governing cross-layer fracture propagation in coal–rock composites with interbedded partings,and delineates the dynamic evolution laws and dominant controlling factors involved.Thefindings provide critical theoretical insights for the optimization of fracture design and the efficient development of deep coalbed methane reservoirs.

文摘To address the challenges of high energy consumption and prominent costs in the traditional three-columns distillation process for cellulosic fuel ethanol,a distillation–molecular sieve coupling separation process is proposed.This process integrates a three-column(crude distillation column,first distillation column,second distillation column)system with a 3A molecular sieve adsorption deep dehydration unit.A thermal coupling network is constructed via differential pressure design(steam from medium/high-pressure columns as mutual heat sources,reboiler liquid waste heat for feed preheating),and molecular sieve adsorption conditions are optimized.The study first performs a thermodynamic consistency test on the ethanol–water system,determines optimal non-random two-liquid(NRTL)model binary interaction parameters via experimental data regression for Aspen Plus simulation.Aiming at minimum total annual cost(TAC),Aspen Plus is used to optimize process parameters(theoretical tray number,feed location,reflux ratio,side-draw position,etc.).Economic analysis shows this process reduces CO_(2) emission costs by 27.56%,TAC by 15.58%(to 5.123×10^(6) USD·a^(−1)),and increases ethanol purity to>99.6%,providing an effective solution for green,efficient separation.

文摘The double flapper-nozzle servo valve is widely used to launch and guide the equipment. Due to the large instantaneous flow rate of servo valve working under specific operating conditions, the temperature of servo valve would reach 120℃ and the valve core and valve sleeve deform in a short amount of time. So the control precision of servo valve significantly decreases and the clamping stagnation phenomenon of valve core appears. In order to solve the problem of degraded control accuracy and clamping stagnation of servo valve under large temperature difference circumstance, the numerical simulation of heat-fluid-solid coupling by using finite element method is done. The simulation result shows that zero position leakage of servo valve is basically impacted by oil temperature and change of fit clearance. The clamping stagnation is caused by warpage-deformation and fit clearance reduction of the valve core and valve sleeve. The distribution roles of the temperature and thermal-deformation of shell, valve core and valve sleeve and the pressure, velocity and temperature field of flow channel are also analyzed. Zero position leakage and electromagnet＇s current when valve core moves in full-stroke are tested using Electro-hydraulic Servo-valve Characteristic Test-bed of an aerospace sciences and technology corporation. The experimental results show that the change law of experimental current at different oil temperatures is roughly identical to simulation current. The current curve of the electromagnet is smooth when oil temperature is below 80℃, but the amplitude of current significantly increases and the hairy appears when oil temperature is above 80℃. The current becomes smooth again after the warped valve core and valve sleeve are reground. It indicates that clamping stagnation is caused by warpage-deformation and fit clearance reduction of valve core and valve sleeve. This paper simulates and tests the heat-fluid-solid coupling of double flapper-nozzle servo valve, and the obtained results provide the reference value for the design of double flapper-nozzle force feedback servo valve.

文摘Shallow water infrastructure needs to support increased activity on the shores of Semarang.This study chooses several pontoons because of their good stability,rolling motion,and more expansive space.A coupled simulation method consisting of hydrodynamic and structural calculations has been used to evaluate a catamaran pontoon’s motion and structural integrity.Four different space sizes are set for the pontoon system:5 m,5.5 m,6 m,and 6.5 m.The frequency domain shows that the pontoon space affects the RAO in wave periods ranging from 3 s to 5 s.At wave periods of 3 s,4 s,and 5 s,the pontoon space significantly affects the maximum motion and chain tension parameter values,which are evaluated via time domain simulation.The critical stress of the pontoon is shown at a wave period of 5 s for 5 m and 5.5 m of pontoon space,which shows that the stress can reach 248 MPa.

文摘This study investigates the effect of nacelle motions on the rotor performance and drivetrain dynamics of floating offshore wind turbines(FOWTs)through fully coupled aero-hydro-elastic-servo-mooring simulations.Using the National Renewable Energy Laboratory 5 MW monopile-supported offshore wind turbine and the OC4 DeepCwind semisubmersible wind turbine as case studies,the research addresses the complex dynamic responses resulting from the interaction among wind,waves,and turbine structures.Detailed multi-body dynamics models of wind turbines,including drivetrain components,are created within the SIMPACK framework.Meanwhile,the mooring system is modeled using a lumped-mass method.Various operational conditions are simulated through five wind-wave load cases.Results demonstrate that nacelle motions significantly influence rotor speed,thrust,torque,and power output,as well as the dynamic loads on drivetrain components.These findings highlight the need for advanced simulation techniques for the design and optimization of FOWTs to ensure reliable performance and longevity.
文摘The oxidative coupling of methane （OCM） to ethylene over a perovskite titanate catalyst in a fixed bed reactor was studied experimentally and numerically. The two-dimensional steady state model accounted for separate energy equations for the gas and solid phases coupled with an experimental kinetic model. A lumped kinetic model containing four main species CH4, O2, COx （CO2, CO）, and C2 （C2H4 and C2H6） was used with a plug flow reactor model as well. The results from the model agreed with the experimental data. The model was used to analyze the influence of temperature and feed gas composition on the conversion and selectivity of the reactor performance. The analytical results indicate that the conversion decreases, whereas, C2 selectivity increases by increasing gas hourly space velocity （GHSV） and the methane conversion also decreases by increasing the methane to oxygen ratio.

文摘The finite-difference method(FDM)is an essential tool in exploration geophysics,particularly for simulating wave propagation in fluid-solid coupled media.Despite its widespread use,FDM faces significant challenges that affect its accuracy and efficiency.Firstly,the implicit handling of fluid-solid boundary conditions through parameter averaging strategy often results in low simulation accuracy.Secondly,surface topography can introduce staircase diffraction noise when grid spacing is large.To address these issues,this paper presents a novel approach.We derive an implicit expression for fluidsolid boundary conditions based on average medium theory,translating explicit boundary conditions into model parameter modification.This enables implicit handling of fluid-solid boundaries by modifying the parameters near the boundary.Furthermore,to mitigate staircase diffraction noise,we employ multiple interface discretization based on the superposition method.This effectively suppresses staircase diffraction noise without requiring grid refinement.The efficacy of our method in accurately modeling wave propagation phenomena in fluid-solid coupled media is demonstrated by numerical examples.Results align well with those obtained using the spectral element method(SEM),with significant reduction in staircase diffraction noise.

文摘Urbanization and eco-environment coupling is a research hotspot.Dynamic simulation of urbanization and eco-environment coupling needs to be improved because the processes of coupling are complex and statistical methods are limited.Systems science and cross-scale coupling allow us to define the coupled urbanization and eco-environment system as an open complex giant system with multiple feedback loops.We review the current state of dynamic simulation of urbanization and eco-environment coupling and find that:(1)The use of dynamic simulation is an increasing trend,the relevant theory is being developed,and modeling processes are being improved;(2)Dynamic simulation technology has become diversified,refined,intelligent and integrated;(3)Simulation is mainly performed for three aspects of the coupling,multiple regions and multiple elements,local coupling and telecoupling,and regional synergy.However,we also found some shortcomings:(1)Basic theories are inadequately developed and insufficiently integrated;(2)The methods of unifying systems and sharing data are behind the times;(3)Coupling relations and the dynamic characteristics of the main driving elements are not fully understood or completely identified.Additionally,simulation of telecoupling does not quantify parameters and is not systemically unified,and therefore cannot be used to represent spatial synergy.In the future,we must promote communication between research networks,technology integration and data sharing to identify the processes governing change in coupled relations and in the main driving elements in urban agglomerations.Finally,we must build decision support systems to plan and ensure regional sustainable urbanization.

文摘Abstract： A joint solution model of variabk：-mass flow in two-phase region and fluid-solid coupling heat transfer, concerned about the charge process of variable-mass thermodynamic system, is built up and calculated by the finite element method （FEM）. The results are basically consistent with relative experimental data. The calculated average heat transfer coefficient reaches 1.7~105 W/（m2. K）. When the equal percentage valve is used, the system needs the minimum requirements of valve control, but brings the highest construction cost. With the： decrease of initial steam pressure, the heat transfer intensity also weakens but the steam flow increases. With the initial water filling coefficient increasing or the temperature of steam supply decreasing, the amount of accumulative steam flow increases with the growth of steam pressure. When the pressure of steam supply drops, the steam flow gradient increases during the maximum opening period of control valve, and causes the maximum steam flow to increase.

文摘Due to the change of initial stress state caused by roadway excavation, the permeability of the coal body may be changed during the excavation process. In this paper, according to the different stress states, the coal around the roadway was divided into the seepage open zone, seepage orientation zone, seepage decay zone and original seepage zone along the radial direction of the roadway. The loaded gassy coal was treated as a viscoelastic and plastic softened medium, and the mechanical behaviors of the viscoelastic zone, plastic softened zone and broken zone around the roadway were analyzed with the consideration of the loading creep, softening and expansion effect of the gassy coal. According to the law of conservation of mass and the Darcy law, the flow-solid coupled model for the gas transportation of the coal around the roadway was established considering the dynamic evolution of the adsorption characteristics, porosity and permeability of the coal, and the simulation software COMSOL was utilized to numerically simulate the stress state and gas flow regularity around the coal, which provided meaningful reference for investigating the stability of the coal and rock around the roadway.
文摘Supported by the high-speed SGI engineering workstation and the general MARCTM software, a system is developed to simulate the hot deformation process and the cooling process after deformation in the forging of Cr12 steel on the basis of elastic-plastic FEM techniques with coupled thermal-mechanical-microstructural alteration. In this system, a mathematical model, obtained by plentiful physical simulation experiments on Gleeble 1500 thermomechanical simulator, is introduced to describe the changes in microstructure and properties of steels. This system is proved to be reliable to simulate the thermal field and stress field as well as the microstructure of Cr12 steel during the forging process. It can also be used to optimize and control the forging process.
文摘In this paper, the iterative coupling approach is proposed for applications to solving multiphase flow equation systems in reservoir simulation, as it provides a more flexible time-stepping strategy than existing approaches. The iterative method decouples the whole equation systems into pressure and saturation/concentration equations, and then solves them in sequence, implicitly and semi-implicitly. At each time step, a series of iterations are computed, which involve solving linearized equations using specific tolerances that are iteration dependent. Following convergence of subproblems, material balance is checked. Convergence of time steps is based on material balance errors. Key components of the iterative method include phase scaling for deriving a pressure equation and use of several advanced numerical techniques. The iterative model is implemented for parallel computing platforms and shows high parallel efficiency and scalability.
