The e...In this study, the three-dimensional non-premixed two-phase kerosene/air rotating detonation engines with different isolator configurations and throat area ratios are simulated by the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The effects of the divergence, straight, and convergence isolators on the rotating detonation wave dynamics and the upstream oblique shock wave propagation mechanism are analyzed. The differences in the rotating detonation wave behaviors between ground and flight operations are clarified.The results indicate that the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave depend on the isolator configurations and operation conditions. With a divergence isolator, the airflow is accelerated throughout the isolator and divergence section, leading to a maximum Mach number(~1.8) before the normal shock. The total pressure loss reaches the largest, and the detonation pressure drops. The upstream oblique shock wave can be suppressed within the divergence section with the divergence isolator.However, for the straight and convergence isolators, the airflow in the isolator with a larger ψ_(1)(0.3 and0.4) can suffer from the disturbance of the upstream oblique shock wave. The critical incident angle is around 39° at ground operation conditions. The upstream oblique shock wave tends to be suppressed when the engine operates under flight operation conditions. The critical pressure ratio β_(cr0) is found to be able to help in distinguishing the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave. Slightly below or above the β_(cr0) can obtain different marginal propagation results. The high-speed airflow in the divergence section affects the fuel droplet penetration distance, which deteriorates the reactant mixing and the detonation area. Significant detonation velocity deficits are observed and the maximum velocity deficit reaches 26%. The results indicate the engine channel design should adopt different isolator configurations based on the purpose of total pressure loss or disturbance suppression. This study can provide useful guidance for the channel design of a more complete two-phase rotating detonation engine.展开更多

文摘Thermal vibrational convection(TVC)refers to the time-averaged convection of a non-isothermal fluid subjected to oscillating force fields.It serves as an effective mechanism for heat transfer control,particularly under microgravity conditions.A key challenge in this field is understanding the effect of rotation on TVC,as fluid oscillations in rotating systems exhibit unique and specific characteristics.In this study,we examine TVC in a vertical flat layer with boundaries at different temperatures,rotating around a horizontal axis.The distinctive feature of this study is that the fluid oscillations within the cavity are not induced by vibrations of the cavity itself,but rather by the gravity field,giving them a tidal nature.Our findings reveal that inertial waves generated in the rotating layer qualitatively alter the TVC structure,producing time-averaged flows in the form of toroidal vortices.Experimental investigations of the structure of oscillatory and time-averaged flows,conducted using Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV)for flow velocity visualization,are complemented by theoretical calculations of inertial modes in a cavity with this geometry.To the best of our knowledge,this study represents the first of its kind.The agreement between experimental results and theoretical predictions confirms that the formation of convective structures in the form of toroidal vortices is driven by inertial waves induced by the gravity field.A decrease in the rotational velocity leads to a transformation of the convective structures,shifting from toroidal vortices of inertial-wave origin to classical cellular TVC.We present dimensionless parameters that define the excitation thresholds for both cellular convection and toroidal structures.

文摘The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical application of a rotating pod and assess its dosimetric considerations,positional accuracy,and anatomical structure stability.A pre-dosimetric study conducted on 11 patients revealed the potential for lung dose reduction using the rotational pod.Subsequently,seven patients underwent treatment with the rotational pod,and the target coverage and organs at risk doses were compared with those of conventional methods.The positional accuracy of the rotational pod,in collaboration with the imaging guidance system,was analyzed.The Dice similarity coefficient(DSC)was used to assess the settlement of tumors,trachea,and thoracic vertebrae after rotation for 20 min.In the pre-dosimetric study,there was no statistically significant difference in the volume of the internal gross tumor volume receiving≥99%of the prescription dose between the pod and conventional couch plans.However,compared to conventional couch plans,pod plans demonstrated a significant reduction in the average lung dose by 5-53%(p<0.01).Patient accrual,comprising seven cases,revealed reduced lung doses(9-26%)in four patients.For the other three patients,although there was no significant reduction in the lung dose,the use of the 90°beamline contributed to a decrease in the patient admission waiting time.The positional errors between the beams for lateral,longitudinal,vertical,ISO,pitch,and roll directions were 0.0 mm±5.3 mm,-1.2 mm±2.3 mm,-1.1 mm±2.7 mm,0.0°±0.6°,-0.1°±0.5°,and 0.0°±0.8°,respectively.The DSC for the target region and thoracic vertebrae between CT images captured before and after a 20-min rotation was higher than 0.85,whereas the DSC for the trachea was approximately 0.8.The preliminary clinical application of the rotational pod for lung tumors in fixed ion beamlines shows promise for achieving target coverage,reducing lung dose,and maintaining position accuracy.

文摘In this study, the three-dimensional non-premixed two-phase kerosene/air rotating detonation engines with different isolator configurations and throat area ratios are simulated by the Eulerian-Lagrangian method. The effects of the divergence, straight, and convergence isolators on the rotating detonation wave dynamics and the upstream oblique shock wave propagation mechanism are analyzed. The differences in the rotating detonation wave behaviors between ground and flight operations are clarified.The results indicate that the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave depend on the isolator configurations and operation conditions. With a divergence isolator, the airflow is accelerated throughout the isolator and divergence section, leading to a maximum Mach number(~1.8) before the normal shock. The total pressure loss reaches the largest, and the detonation pressure drops. The upstream oblique shock wave can be suppressed within the divergence section with the divergence isolator.However, for the straight and convergence isolators, the airflow in the isolator with a larger ψ_(1)(0.3 and0.4) can suffer from the disturbance of the upstream oblique shock wave. The critical incident angle is around 39° at ground operation conditions. The upstream oblique shock wave tends to be suppressed when the engine operates under flight operation conditions. The critical pressure ratio β_(cr0) is found to be able to help in distinguishing the propagation regimes of the upstream oblique shock wave. Slightly below or above the β_(cr0) can obtain different marginal propagation results. The high-speed airflow in the divergence section affects the fuel droplet penetration distance, which deteriorates the reactant mixing and the detonation area. Significant detonation velocity deficits are observed and the maximum velocity deficit reaches 26%. The results indicate the engine channel design should adopt different isolator configurations based on the purpose of total pressure loss or disturbance suppression. This study can provide useful guidance for the channel design of a more complete two-phase rotating detonation engine.

文摘Rotating machinery is critical to industrial systems,necessitating robust anomaly detection(AD)to ensure operational safety and prevent failures.However,in real-world scenarios,monitoring data is typically unlabeled and often consists of normal samples contaminated with a small proportion of unknown anomalies.To address this,this paper proposes a diffusion-based AD method,Anomaly Detection Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model(AD-DDPM)for robust AD.The method employs a U-attention-net to capture local and global features and introduces a filtered contrastive mechanism to mitigate the impact of contaminated training data.By leveraging the probabilistic nature of diffusion models,AD-DDPM effectively models normal data distributions,achieving superior AD even with polluted samples.Experimental validation on fault simulation datasets demonstrates the method’s exceptional performance,outperforming traditional machine learning and deep learning baselines.The proposed approach offers a promising solution for reliable health monitoring in industrial settings.

文摘This study focuses on coupled vibrations of rotating thin-walled composite beams subjected to hygrothermal effects.In the existing literature,many studies have been conducted on coupled bending-torsional vibration and resonance in hygrothermal environments.Few studies considered the coupled flapwise-edgewise and resonances of composite thin-walled beams.Considering this,the flapwise-edgewise coupling effects and resonant characteristics of rotating thin-walled composite beams in a hygrothermal environment are studied.The Rayleigh–Ritz method is used to solve the equations of the beam.Results indicate that flapwise-edgewise coupling factors are essential for the vibration analysis of rectangular thin-walled beams.The ply angle and setting angle strongly affect the internal and external resonances.Large ply angles can significantly reduce the chances of primary internal and external resonances occurring when the permitted rotational speed is lower.

文摘Odd elasticity introduces active moduli to the antisymmetric components of the elastic tensor,which describe the asymmetric coupling between different deformation modes in a medium and quantify the work extracted during quasi-static strain cycles.The introduction of active moduli renders the elastic tensor non-Hermitian,breaking the Maxwell-Betti reciprocity and enabling the observation of phenomena that cannot occur in traditional passive media.Here,we develop an analytical dynamic model for odd elastic circular plates to investigate the effects of odd elasticity on motion in rotationally symmetric geometries.We report a novel nonreciprocal rotating wave and explore the effects of different odd elastic moduli on chiral deformation.Nonreciprocal rotating waves represent a distinct dynamic mode,exhibiting unidirectional propagation with amplitude increasing or decreasing exclusively along a specific direction.The amplitude change during motion reveals the system’s non-conservation of energy.

文摘The dynamics of fluid and non-buoyant particles in a librating horizontal annulus is studied experimentally.In the absence of librations,the granular material forms a cylindrical layer near the outer boundary of the annulus and undergoes rigid-body rotation with the fluid and the annulus.It is demonstrated that the librational liquefaction of the granular material results in pattern formation.This self-organization process stems from the excitation of inertial modes induced by the oscillatory motion of liquefied granular material under the influence of the gravitational force.The inertial wave induces vortical fluid flow which entrains particles from rest and forms eroded areas that are equidistant from each other along the axis of rotation.Theoretical analysis and experiments demonstrate that a liquefied layer of granular material oscillates with a radian frequency equal to the angular velocity of the annulus and interacts with the inertial wave it excites.The new phenomenon of libration-induced pattern formation is of practical interest as it can be used to control multiphase flows and mass transfer in rotating containers in a variety of industrial processes.

文摘This study investigates the mixing enhancement mechanism and propagation characteristics of the detonation flow field of a Rotating Detonation Engine(RDE).Three-dimensional numerical simulations of a non-premixed ramjet-based RDE fueled by gaseous ethylene are performed in OpenFOAM for configurations with 15,30,45,and 60 orifices at a flight Mach number of 4.The results show that fuels with a stripped distribution are primarily mixed via tangential diffusion in the cold flow field.The configuration with more orifices has a better upstream mixing efficiency,whereas its downstream mixing efficiency,which is limited by the depth of penetration,is difficult to improve further.Backward Pressure Perturbations(BPPs)opposite to the propagation direction of Rotating Detonation Waves(RDWs)are produced by the reflection of the upstream oblique shock wave with the incoming stream and the hot release of local reactions after RDWs,which significantly affects the propagation mode and mixing.The RDWs propagate in the stable single-wave mode in configurations with 45 or 60 orifices and in the multi-wave mode in configurations with 30 orifices,whereas they fail in configurations with 15 orifices.Compared with that in the cold flow field,deceleration of the main flow,pressurization,and tangential velocity perturbation caused by the RDW substantially enhance the mixing efficiency.Moreover,the tangential velocity perturbations of upstream oblique shock waves and BPPs reduce the unevenness of the fuel distribution for the next cycle.This study reveals the mixing enhancement mechanism of RDWs and can contribute to the design of the injection scheme of the RDE.

文摘Two-dimensional(2D)direct numerical simulations on the dynamics of three identical ferrofluid droplets suspended in a non-magnetic ambient fluid under a rotating uniform magnetic field are conducted,and the motion and deformation of the three ferrofluid droplets are studied in this paper.Results show that there are four modes(i.e.,the three droplets'direct coalescence(TC),the coalescence of two droplets and the subsequent planetary motion with the third droplet(CAP),the three droplets'planetary motion(TP),and the independent spin(IS))for the three ferrofluid droplets,dependent on the magnetic Bond number(Bom)and the initial distance(d0)between two of the droplets.It is found that the decrease in d0and the increase in Bomcan make the droplets'mode change from the IS to the planetary motion,and then turn to the CAP.Furthermore,reducing Bomor d0is helpful for the droplets to become merged.

文摘A high-quality welding method,named plasma arc welding apparatus with rotating tungsten electrode(abbreviated as PAW-RT),was proposed in this paper.The rotation speed could be adjusted from 0 to 15000 r/min.The rotary motion of the tungsten needle trans-ferred circumferential momentum to the arc as well as the molten pool,thereby conferring the latter with rotating fluid flow charac-teristics.The influences of tungsten electrode rotation speed on PAW arc morphology,weld formation and interfacial microstructure of the final weld joints were discussed by the experimental procedures involving in-situ ablation,surfacing and butt welding.The ex-periments were conducted on Q235B steel.The results indicated that the increase of tungsten electrode rotation speed in PAW-RT contributed to improving arc eccentricity,leading to aesthetically improved welds with more uniformity.Additionally,the strength,hardness and toughness of the welded joint increased,while porosity was reduced.

文摘In semiconductor precision packaging and other applications involving alignment of automated equipment,the nonlinear motion caused by structural characteristics and friction effects on torque-type rotating motion stages seriously affects output accuracy and stability.To solve this problem,the motion characteristics of a rotating stage and the mechanism by which friction nonlinearity influences accuracy are analyzed in detail.In addition,a compound control strategy based on a kinematic model and the Stribeck friction model is designed.A friction disturbance observer based on output position feedback is improved for simple parameter tuning.Finally,an experimental system is constructed to carry out validation tests,including identification of nonlinear characteristics and performance comparisons.The experimental results show that the linear tracking error of the torque-type rotating stage is less than 1.47µm after adoption of the proposed model-based composite control strategy,and the corresponding rotary angle deviation is less than 0.0153°.The linearity of output motion is increased to 97.59%and the error compensation effect is improved by 51.6%compared with the PID control method.The experimental results confirm that the analysis method adopted here and the proposed compensation strategy can effectively reduce frictional nonlinearity and improve motion accuracy.The proposed method can also be applied to other precision electromechanical systems.

文摘Aerodynamic drag is the dominant factor contributing to energy consumption as the operational speed of high speed trains increases,necessitating effective aerodynamic optimization strategies.This study investigates the aerodynamic characteristics of the bogie region under two bogie fairing configurations:baseline bogie fairing(BBF)and full bogie fairing(FBF).Both stationary and rotating wheelset conditions are considered.Wind tunnel experiments were conducted on a full-scale bogie model equipped with a wheelset drive system to simulate wheelset rotation.Additionally,numerical simulations were employed to analyze flow structures.Results indicate that the FBF configuration promotes a more uniform front-to-rear pressure distribution in the bogie region.The rotation of the wheelset notably affects the airflow near the wheels and extends its influence throughout the entire bogie region.Specifically,wheelset rotation reduces drag by 6.38%in the BBF configuration but increases drag by 3.5%in the FBF configuration.Further analysis reveals that,in the FBF configuration,aerodynamic drag primarily originates from the wheelsets.The rotating wheelset increases the aerodynamic drag by 18.8%for the rear wheelset,which is attributed to the shift in the pressure curve on the wheelset in the rotating direction.Therefore,the impact of wheelset rotation on aerodynamic characteristics should not be overlooked.

文摘Blades are important parts of rotating machinery such as marine gas turbines and wind turbines,which are exposed to harsh environments during mechanical operations,including centrifugal loads,aerodynamic forces,or high temperatures.These demanding working conditions considerably influence the dynamic performance of blades.Therefore,because of the challenges posed by blades in complex working environments,in-depth research and optimization are necessary to ensure that blades can operate safely and efficiently,thus guaranteeing the reliability and performance of mechanical systems.Focusing on the vibration analysis of blades in rotating machinery,this paper conducts a comprehensive literature review on the research advancements in vibration modeling and structural optimization of blades under complex operational conditions.First,the paper outlines the development of several modeling theories for rotating blades,including one-dimensional beam theory,two-dimensional plate-shell theory,and three-dimensional solid theory.Second,the research progress in the vibrational analysis of blades under aerodynamic loads,thermal environments,and crack factors is separately discussed.Finally,the developments in rotating blade structural optimization are presented from material optimization and shape optimization perspectives.The methodology and theory of analyzing and optimizing blade vibration characteristics under multifactorial operating conditions are comprehensively outlined,aiming to assist future researchers in proposing more effective and practical approaches for the vibration analysis and optimization of blades.

文摘Time-averaged thermal convection in a rotating horizontal annulus with a higher temperature at its inner boundary is studied.The centrifugal force plays a stabilizing role,while thermal convection is determined by the“thermovibrational mechanism”.Convective flow is excited due to oscillations of a non-isothermal rotating fluid.Thermal vibrational convectionmanifests in the form of two-dimensional vortices elongated along the axis of rotation,which develop in a threshold manner with an increase in the amplitude of fluid oscillations.The objective of the present study is to clarify the nature of another phenomenon,i.e.,three-dimensional convective vortices observed in the experiments both before the excitation of the convection described above and in the supercritical region.The experimental study of the oscillatory and the time-averaged flow fields by particle image velocimetry is accompanied by the theoretical research of inertial waves.It is found that three-dimensional fluid flows owe their origin to inertial waves.This is confirmed by a high degree of agreement between the experimental and theoretical results.Experiments with cavities of different lengths indicate that the vortices are clearly seen in cavities thatmeet the conditions of resonant excitation of inertial modes.Furthermore,the length of the cavity has no effect on heat transfer,which is explained by the comparatively low intensity of the wave-induced flows.The main contribution to heat transfer is due to vortices elongated along the axis of rotation.The novel results are of significant practical importance in various fields.
