It is significant to obtain the particle distribution data for workpiece processing and industrial protection strategies. To simulate the particle dispersion in a high-concentration airtight space under unorganized airflow, a CFD-based simulation and experimental were utilized in this study. The proposed method works in three steps. The first step is to use Stokes-MRF-Fan-CFD model to simplify the distribution of high-concentration particles calculation to the dispersion state of the gas components. The second step is to compute the airflow patterns and dispersion of particles. The third step is to prove the feasibility of Stokes-MRF-Fan-CFD model. The results of this model in particle dispersion show ±200 mg·m−3 of absolute error, ±20% of relative error, and 88.5747 grade of simulation accuracy. And the results of particle concentration distribution can be mutually confirmed with the streamline and velocity vector distribution in the airtight space, providing a promising and innovative model for the particle dispersion in a high-concentration airtight space under unorganized airflow.

A modified algorithm is proposed in this study to correct time-varying mesh stiffness (TVMS) and transmission error (TE) in helical gears considering tooth root transition curve. The parametric model of helical gear is established by using the meshing principle of helical gear and hob in order to obtain the accurate tooth root transition curve. Moreover, a TE test rig is set up to compare the theoretical and experimental results. The results of the improved algorithm are very similar to the experimental results compared to the traditional model, and the relative error of TE is also small. In this study, the effect of multi-parameters (e.g. pressure angle, meshing position, transverse contact ratio, and overlap ratio) on TE are investigated by comparing theory with experimental analysis. Through the analysis of parameters, it has been established that an elevation in pressure angle leads to a decrease in TE, followed by an increase. In the event that the meshing position is situated closer to the nodal point, the TE slightly decreases. Moreover, as the transverse contact ratio and overlap ratio increase, the TVMS increases, while the TE decreases. When the overlap ratio approaches an odd multiple of 0.5, the TE displays a significant peak.
本研究提出了一种修正算法,用于修正考虑齿根过渡曲线的斜齿轮中的时变啮合刚度(TVMS)和传动误差(TE)。利用斜齿轮和滚刀的啮合原理,建立了斜齿轮的参数模型,以获得精确的齿根过渡曲线。此外,还建立了一个 TE 试验台来比较理论和实验结果。与传统模型相比,改进算法的结果与实验结果非常相似,而且 TE 的相对误差也很小。本研究通过理论与实验分析的对比,研究了多参数(如压力角、啮合位置、横向接触比和重叠比)对 TE 的影响。通过对参数的分析,确定了压力角的增大会导致 TE 的减小,随后会增大。如果网格位置更靠近结点,则 TE 会略微降低。此外,随着横向接触比和重叠比的增大,TVMS 会增大,而 TE 会减小。当重叠率接近 0.5 的奇数倍时,TE 出现明显峰值。

The susceptibility of tools in Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines makes them the most vulnerable elements in milling processes. The final product quality and the operations safety are directly influenced by the wear condition. To address this issue, the present paper introduces a hybrid approach incorporating feature extraction and optimized machine learning algorithms for tool wear prediction. The approach involves extracting a set of features from time-series signals obtained during the milling processes. These features allow the capture of valuable characteristics relating to the dynamic signal behavior. Subsequently, a feature selection process is proposed, employing Relief and intersection feature ranks. This step automatically identifies and selects the most pertinent features. Finally, an optimized support vector machine for regression (OSVR) is employed to predict the evolution of wear in machining tool cuts. The proposed method’s effectiveness is validated from three milling tool wear experiments. This validation includes comparative results with the Linear Regression (LR), Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), CNN-ResNet50, and Support Vector Regression (SVR) methods.

In order to reduce the transmission noise of drive axle hypoid gear, a method of tooth surface mismatch modification was proposed. Firstly, on the basis of establishing the grinding mathematical model of hypoid gear with cutter tilt, the theoretical tooth surface equation was derived, and the numerical tooth surface was calculated by dividing the grid points on tooth surface. Secondly, the pinion tooth surface which was full conjugated with gear tooth surface was constructed, and the tooth surface mismatch topography was established and decomposed into the first order and second order mismatch coefficients. According to the modification requirements, the pinion target surface was constructed by modifying the tooth surface mismatch coefficients, and the pinion modified machine setting parameters were acquired by establishing the pinion processing parameters corrected mathematical model. Finally, the loaded tooth contact analysis with finite element simulation and drive axle NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness) simulation were carried out for a pair of hypoid gear, therefore the loaded tooth contact areas, transmission errors curves, and noise simulation curves were obtained, and the simulation results show that after modification the tooth contact stress, loaded transmission errors amplitude, and NVH simulation curves value are all reduced. The road test results indicate that the drive axle hypoid gear howling phenomenon under the high speed operation can be eliminated, so the effectiveness of tooth surface modification method and NVH simulation method were verified.

To enhance the efficiency and load-carrying capacity of the jumping robot’s transmission system, the transmission characteristics of the planthopper hip gear were analyzed. The analysis revealed that the gear pair exhibited low transmission errors, high transmission efficiency, and significant torque capacity, making it suitable for high-speed, high-precision, and high-power density transmissions. A bionic design study of the jumping robot’s gear was conducted, drawing inspiration from the planthopper hip gear’s tooth shape and profile. A logarithmic spiral was assumed as the tooth profile based on its consistent pitch angle and curvature gradient characteristics. Parameters of the tooth profile of the bionic gear were calculated, and equations for the tooth surface were derived. A three-dimensional model of the bionic gear was constructed, and both its transmission efficiency and error were calculated. Using the finite element method, theoretical formulas for contact stress and bending stress in the bionic gear were deduced. The distribution characteristics of both bending and contact stress were analyzed, demonstrating that the bionic gear used in high-performance jumping robots possesses low transmission error, high transmission efficiency, and excellent contact strength, providing a theoretical foundation for enhancing their jumping capabilities.

The Rankine cycle is a conceptual arrangement of four processes as a closed vapor power thermodynamic cycle, where a working fluid (especially water as a liquid, as a vapor, and as a liquid-vapor mixture) can be used to convert heat into mechanical energy (shaft rotation). This cycle and its variants are widely used in electric power generation through utility-scale thermal power plants, such as coal-fired power plants and nuclear power plants. In the steam-based Rankine cycle, water should be pressurized and heated to be in the form of very hot high-pressure water vapor called “superheated steam,” before the useful process of expansion inside a steam turbine section occurs. If the absolute pressure and temperature of the superheated steam are both above the critical values for water (220.6 bara and 374.0°C), the cycle is classified as “supercritical.” Otherwise, the cycle is classified as “subcritical.” This study considers the impact of the temperature and pressure, independently, on the performance of a steam Rankine cycle. Starting from a representative condition for a subcritical cycle (600°C peak temperature and 50 bara peak absolute pressure), either the peak temperature or the peak absolute pressure of the cycle is increased with regular steps (up to 900°C, with a temperature step of 50°C, and up to 400 bara, with a pressure step of 50 bar). The variation of five scale-independent performance metrics is investigated in response to the elevated temperature and the elevated pressure. Thus, a total of 10 response curves are presented. When the temperature increased, all the five response variables were improved in a nearly linear profile. On the other hand, increasing the pressure did not give a monotonic linear improvement for each response variable. In particular, the cycle efficiency seemed to approach a limiting maximum value of 45% approximately, where further increases in the pressure cause diminishing improvements in the efficiency. When varying the peak pressure, an optimum minimum ratio of (water-mass-to-output-power) is found at 203 bara, although the cycle efficiency still increases beyond this value. In the present research work, the web-based tool for calculating steam properties by the British company Spirax Sarco Limited, and the software program mini-REFPROP by NIST (United States National Institute of Standards and Technology) were used for finding the necessary specific enthalpies (energy content) of water at different stages within the steam cycle. Both tools were found consistent with each other, as well as with the Python-based software package Cantera for simulating thermo-chemical-transport processes. The results showed that if the peak temperature reaches 900°C, a gain of about 5 percentage points (pp) in the thermal cycle efficiency becomes possible (compared to the case of having a base peak temperature of 600°C), as the predicted efficiency was found to increase from 38.60% (base case) to 43.67%.

The smooth and discontinuous (SD) oscillator is a typical system with strong nonlinear characteristics, and it is widely used in low-frequency vibration isolation and energy harvesting. A fractional damping model denoted by the Caputo model is introduced into the SD oscillator to adjust the property of the secondary resonance and evaluate the stability of the system. The influence of the fractional damping model on the one-third subharmonic resonance and the fixed-range asymptotic stability is studied. Residue theory and the Laplace transform are used to solve the fractional damping model. The amplitude–frequency response function and the existence conditions are derived by means of the averaging method. Lyapunov theory is used to determine the stable criteria of steady-state solutions. The cell-mapping method is ameliorated and used to calculate the fixed-range asymptotic stability of the one-third subharmonic resonance. The main results are as follows: a gap in the excitation amplitude occurs in the region of the existence condition of the one-third subharmonic resonance when the smooth parameter is smaller than 1. The generation of one-third subharmonic resonance is totally avoided for all frequencies when the excitation amplitudes are within the gap. The width of the gap, as well as the amplitude of the one-third subharmonic resonance, is affected by the parameters of the fractional damping term. The fixed-range asymptotic stability of the one-third subharmonic resonance is weak when the fractional damping parameters are large, which indicates a low resistance of the one-third subharmonic resonance to the external disturbance. The tuning effects of the fractional damping model on the one-third subharmonic resonance and fixed-range asymptotic stability are beneficial for the applications of SD oscillators.

The aim of this current research is to investigate the peristaltic flow of Williamson nanofluid across a rough surface in a non-uniform channel under the influence of inclined magnetic field. The Joule heating and viscous dissipation effects are also retained in the current scrutiny. The objective of studying peristaltic flow of Williamson nanofluid on a rough surface is to gain insights into the complex fluid dynamics and heat transfer phenomena occurring in such systems. This knowledge can be used to design more efficient and effective nanofluid-based devices and processes. In the context of mathematical modeling, the appropriate dimensional nonlinear equations for momentum, heat and mass transport are simplified into dimensionless equation by applying the essential estimation of long wavelength and low Reynolds number. The equations subjected to boundary conditions have solved numerically by the Mathematica software built-in numerical Solver ND_solve method. Various essential physical characteristics on velocity, temperature and concentration are presented graphically in the end. It can be seen that fluid velocity decreases at the central part of the channel for the escalting values Hartman number M. As Darcy number Da increases then velocity profile increases at the core part of the channel and the walls of the channel experiencing an opposite behavior. It is noticed that Higher value of Eckert number Ec enhances the temperature profile. When Weissenberg number We gets stronger then temperature profile decreases. It is observed that the temperature and concentration profiles show an opposite behavior for the rising values of thermophoresis parameter [Formula: see text].
目前这项研究的目的是研究在倾斜磁场的影响下,威廉姆森纳米流体在非均匀通道中穿过粗糙表面的蠕动流动。目前的研究还保留了焦耳加热和粘性耗散效应。研究威廉姆森纳米流体在粗糙表面上的蠕动流动,旨在深入了解此类系统中发生的复杂流体动力学和传热现象。这些知识可用于设计更高效、更有效的基于纳米流体的设备和工艺。在数学建模方面,通过对长波长和低雷诺数的基本估计,将动量、热量和质量传输的适当维数非线性方程简化为无量纲方程。利用 Mathematica 软件内置的数值求解器 ND_solve 方法对受边界条件限制的方程进行了数值求解。最后以图表形式展示了速度、温度和浓度的各种基本物理特性。可以看出,在哈特曼数 M 不断增大的情况下,通道中心部分的流体速度会减小;随着达西数 Da 的增大,通道中心部分的速度曲线会增大,而通道壁的情况则相反。我们注意到,埃克特数 Ec 值越高,温度曲线越明显。当韦森伯格数 We 变大时,温度曲线会减小。据观察,热泳参数值越高,温度曲线和浓度曲线越相反[计算公式:见正文]。

The Trombe wall is a passive solar heating system that aims to mitigate heating load. However, its efficiency is impeded by significant heat loss through the glazing. To address this issue, a novel technique has been developed that involves partial evacuation of the space between the storage wall and the glazing. This approach, which has already found successful application in double-paned windows and solar collectors, is examined in this study to evaluate its impact on the performance of an isolated Trombe wall. An effectiveness criterion based on the ability of a system to preserve its stored thermal energy is defined and used for assessing the performance of a vacuumed system relative to a non-vacuumed one. An experimental test cell, composed of a solid concrete wall serving as a thermal storage and a glazing separated from the wall by an air gap, facing south is constructed in Kirkuk, Iraq. The wall is insulated at all its sides except the side facing the glass. The gap has been sealed meticulously to maintain a vacuum. Due to unrepeatability of the testing conditions experimentally, a numerical method and a computer code is also developed for simulation of the system. Measurement results obtained from the test cell under normal atmospheric pressure and a gage pressure of −0.3 bar of the air gap are used to validate the numerical method. The code is then used to simulate the performance of the system under the same ambient conditions but at different vacuum pressures of the air gap. Results obtained from the numerical tests show that partial evacuation of the air gap can be an efficient way to enhance the performance of the Trombe wall and the absolute pressure of 0.1 bar results in the most significant increase in the effectiveness of the studied model.
