Shape optimization of bi-directional flow passage components based on a genetic algorithm and computational fluid dynamics

The inlet/outlet is an important part of a water conveyance system in a pumped storage power station (PSPS). Its hydraulic characteristics are directly related to the operation and economic benefit of the PSPS. Frequent changes between inflow and outflow operations pose significant challenges in the design of the inlet/outlet diffusion segment shape. In this study, an effective optimization method, including three-dimensional parametric modelling, computational fluid dynamics and a genetic algorithm, is introduced and coupled to the design of the diffusion segment shape. The hydraulic characteristics of bi-directional flow, including the head loss, velocity uneven distribution and uneven discharge distribution, are selected as the objective function in the optimization method. Using this method, the recommended shape of the inlet/outlet is studied and its hydraulic characteristics are discussed. The results indicate that the optimized inlet/outlet has better performance.     

Investigations of geometrical structure and morphology of samples made of hard machinable materials after wire electrical discharge machining and vibro‐abrasive finishing

In this article the results concerned influence of processing conditions of the wire electrical discharge machining and vibro‐abrasive machining on the surface layer and morphology of samples made of hard machinable materials used in aircraft industry like: Titanium 5553 β, Inconel 617, Hastelloy X and Magnesium AZ31 have been presented. For this purpose the cubic and cylindrical samples made of hard machinable alloys have been prepared using optimal electric parameters of wire‐cut electrical discharge machining and finally they have been polished using circular vibratory finishing technology and different ceramic shaped stones.     

Investigation of the piezoelectric and anti-reduction properties of (Ba,Ca) (Ti,Sn, Hf) textured ceramics prepared under low oxygen partial pressure conditions at low sintering temperatures

Multilayer piezoelectric ceramics must be sintered in a reducing atmosphere, preventing oxidation of the inner base metal. Plate-like textured (Ba, Ca)(Ti, Sn, Hf)O₃ ceramics with a <001> preferred orientation were successfully developed at a low oxygen partial pressure (PO₂:10^?8 atm) using a BaTiO₃ (BT) template with sintering temperatures < 1300 °C, which is beneficial for multilayer applications using base metal co-firing with ceramics. When adding the 3 wt% BT template, the proposed samples had a Lottgering factor of 84 %, piezoelectric coefficients d₃₃ = 324 pC/N, -d₃₁ = 122 (pC/N), and Q_m = 452, and the strain values increased from 0.07 % for the randomly oriented ceramics to 0.115 % at 20 kV/cm for the textured ceramics, confirming that the texturing behavior assisted the grain growth and improved both the soft and hard behaviors and insulation resistance of the proposed lead-free ceramics. These findings make a significant contribution to the production of high-power piezoelectric components.

以多晶硅锭中硬质点为研究对象,通过实验研究和数值模拟的方法,对多晶硅锭中硬质点进行形貌和成分分析,并提出改善控制方法。研究结果表明硅锭中部的硬质点较细小,主要由SiC组成;硅锭头部的硬质点较粗大,主要由SiC和Si3N4组成,还有少量O的存在。进一步研究发现多晶硅定向凝固铸锭炉的热场结构对于多晶硅锭硬质点形成有直接影响,通过改进热场结构,优化晶体生长界面,显著减少了铸锭中硬质点的数量。     

水平裂缝对坚硬顶板失稳破断的影响规律研究

为了研究水力压裂形成水平裂缝后坚硬顶板的失稳破断规律,基于材料力学和关键层相关理论,结合数值模拟,对含水平裂缝坚硬顶板的变形破坏特征和失稳破断机制进行了研究。结果表明:当坚硬顶板存在水平贯穿裂缝时,无论上位与下位岩层是否发生同步运动,坚硬顶板的破断步距均小于其初始极限跨距。存在水平贯穿裂缝的坚硬顶板及其上覆岩层,会形成拉压复合破坏区,更易于发生失稳破坏。坚硬顶板块体咬合点区域的拉压复合破坏作用是造成块体局部失稳、回转加剧和整体破断的主要原因。

Locally one-dimensional-alternating segment explicit–implicit and locally one-dimensional-alternating segment Crank–Nicolson methods for two-dimension parabolic equations

In the paper two new locally one-dimensional alternating segment schemes for solving the 2-D parabolic problems are developed. The parabolic problems can be solved efficiently over decomposed sub-domains. Two schemes are proved to be unconditionally stable and numerical experiments show the validity of the schemes.     

块体理论在坚硬特厚煤层综放开采中的应用探索

坚硬特厚煤层采用综放开采时,顶煤受到节理裂隙面的截割,将形成相互耦合的块体,当顶煤下方形成临空面时,部分顶煤块体将首先出现垮落。针对此情况,结合现场钻孔窥视运用块体理论研究方法,分析顶煤体受到的截割状况。从块体沿着单一节理面的垮落和双节理面的垮落类型出发,分析其运动关系和动力关系,得到块体滑动垮落与节理面内摩擦角,及其与滑动垮落方向的关系式,为坚硬特厚煤层顶煤垮落分析提供新的研究角度。
