It proposes an optimal combination of calculating the tangential point amount and skip point amount to make the pattern distribution even and keep the minimal adjusting angle. The S-elbow overall winding pattem plan and simulation module are designed to verify the combined winding pattern design method and the calculation algorithm of the tangential point amount and skip point amount. From the pattern distribution and the simula- tion effect analysis, it shows that this combined winding pattern design method is a good solution to the S-elbow combined winding pattern design. Aimed at the S-elbow winding pattern based on the patch winding method, it carries out the precision error analysis and points out the correspondence between the error and mesh size. Generally speaking, the bigger the mesh size is, the quicker the program calculation speed is; the smaller the mesh size is, the smaller the winding pattern error is.展开更多

The experimental results showed that the corrosion rate increased with increasing flow velocity, and a critical flow velocity could exist in the corrosion of AZ91 D magnesium alloy. When flow velocity exceeded the critical flow velocity, fluid hydrodynamics was dominant in the corrosion of AZ91 D magnesium alloy. On the contrary, the electrochemical factors were dominant.展开更多
