Precision manufacturing of turbine wheel slots by trim-offset approach of WEDM

The present study aims to precisely manufacture the turbine wheel slot using a novel trim-offset approach of wire-electrical-discharge-machining (WEDM) in order to overcome the challenges of a conventional broaching process. Two dimensional model of turbine wheel slot is prepared in ‘ELCAM’ software to generate the computer-numerical-control (CNC) code of fir-tree-profile geometry. The experimental plan based on a trim-offset approach is executed to minimize the thermal damage and to improve the surface fatigue strength, which is most desirable for a long operating life of the jet engine. An average cutting speed of ~1.5 mm/min is observed for rough-cut and ~5 mm/min for trim-cut operation. Six categories of wires are used to manufacture the turbine wheel slots without any wire breakage and gap-short issue. The fabricated profile slots have demonstrated an average roughness (Ra) of 0.65 μm, profile accuracy within ±5 μm, minimum hardness alteration (34.87 Hv), and negligible recast layer (<5 μm) using B-150 wire and fulfilled the essential requirements of the gas turbine industries. Compared to wire-electrochemical-machining (WECM), WEDM trim-offset approach is quite advantageous and should be beneficial for the researchers working in ‘Precision machining of aerospace materials’.

双馈式感应发电机广泛应用于风力发电领域,发电机转子绕组匝间短路是目前国内外研究的热点之一。由于双馈风力发电机的特殊结构和工作特性,准确定位发生匝间短路故障的槽号存在一定难度。本文从有限元理论出发,利用Ansoft仿真分析正常和转子绕组匝间短路故障后的气隙磁密的变化特性。从磁特性角度出发,分析了故障槽定位的可行性;通过探测线圈和光电装置的结合,对比分析正常与故障下采集信号的差值,即可确定故障槽的位置。     

典型平面角钢桁架静风力风洞试验研究

平面桁架是构成空间桁架的基础,广泛地用于房屋建筑、桥梁、起重机、钢塔等工程结构中。以4种典型单片角钢桁架为研究对象,通过高频动态天平测力风洞试验,研究了风速、风向、杆件布置形式和挡风系数等参数对平面角钢桁架静风力的影响。研究结果表明：平面桁架垂直迎风(0°风向)时,阻力系数值最大,约为1.8;升力系数极值为-1.0,出现在25°风向,与同风向下阻力系数值比较,升力系数的影响不能忽略。风速的变化、杆件布置形式和结构挡风系数对研究的四种典型平面桁架(挡风系数Ф∈［0.21, 0.52］)风力系数影响较小。平面桁架的静力折算高度约为总高度的一半,风向、杆件分布形式和挡风系数等参数对折算高度的影响可以忽略。此外,常用规范中并未考虑平面角钢桁架风力系数随风向的变化,为此,基于试验结果,构建了平面桁架角度风系数公式,并对参数进行了拟合,二者吻合较好。

Reduced‐frame TDMA protocols for wireless sensor networks

Time‐division multiple‐access (TDMA) is a common medium access control paradigm in wireless sensor networks. However, in its traditional form, the TDMA‐based protocols suffer from low channel utilization and high message delay because of a long frame length needed to provide collision‐free transmissions, which is particularly damaging in dense wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we investigate the performance and the energy efficiency of a class of TDMA‐based protocols, called reduced‐frame TDMA, where every TDMA slot is augmented with a short time period dedicated for carrier sense multiple access‐based contention resolution mechanism. Because of their ability to dynamically resolve collisions caused by conflicting slot assignments, the reduced‐frame TDMA protocols can be configured with any frame length, independently of node density. In addition, we present a distributed heuristic slot assignment algorithm that minimizes interslot interference in the presence of limited number of slots per frame. The simulation results indicate that the reduced‐frame TDMA protocols significantly reduce the message delay and increase the maximum throughput without incurring significant penalty in energy efficiency compared with the traditional TDMA scheme.
