The ...A heat transfer model of furnace roller cooling process was established based on analysis of furnace roller＇s structure. The complicated model was solved with iteration planning algorithm based on Newton search. The model is proved logical and credible by comparing calculated results and measured data. Then, the relationship between water flow velocity, inlet water temperature, furnace temperature and roller cross section temperature, outlet water temperature, water temperature rise, cooling water heat absorption was studied. The conclusions and recommendations are mainly as follows： l） Cooling water temperature rise decreases with the increase of water flow velocity, but it has small relationship with inlet water temperature; 2） In order to get little water scale, inlet water temperature should be controlled below 30 ℃. 3） The cooling water flow velocity should be greater than critical velocity. The critical velocity is 0.07 m/s and water flow velocity should be controlled within 0.4-0.8 m/s. Within this velocity range, water cooling efficiency is high and water temperature rise is little. If cooling water velocity increases again, heat loss will increase, leading to energy wasting.展开更多

Influences of pouring temperature, the number of turns and the cooling water flow rate on the microstructure of the semisolid Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy slurry were investigated. The results show that the semisolid Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy slurry with satisfactory quality can be generated by the WSPC when the pouring temperature is in the range between 680 ℃ and 700 ℃. At a given pouring temperature, the average grain size of primary α-Al decreases and the shape factor increases with the increase of the number of turns. When the cooling water flow rate is 450 L·h^(-1), the obtained semisolid slurry is optimal. During the preparation of the semisolid Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy slurry with low superheat pouring, the alloy melt has mixed inhibition and convection flow characteristics by "self-stirring". When the alloy melt flows through the serpentine channel, the chilling effect of the inner wall of the channel, the convection and mixed inhibition of the alloy melt greatly promote the heterogeneous nucleation and grain segregation. This effect destroys the dendrite growth mode under traditional solidification conditions, and the primary nuclei gradually evolve into spherical or nearspherical grains.展开更多

There were three influencing factors： the radius R of the water- cooled pipe, and the pipe spacing L1 and L3. The influence rule of different factors on the cooling effect and thermal stress of the plate were studied, for which the influence rank was respectively R 〉 L1 〉 L3 and L3 〉 R 〉 L1. The highest temperature value decreased when R and L1 increased~ and the maximum thermal stress value dropped when R, L1 and L3 increased. The final optimized results can be summarized as： R equals 6 mm or 7 mm, L1 equals 19 mm, and L3 equals 20 mm. Compared with the initial design, the highest temperature value had a small decline~ and the maximum thermal stress value dropped by 19~ to 24~. So it was not ideal to improve the cooling effect by optimizing the geometry sizes of the water-cooled structure, even worse than increasing the flow speed, but it was very effective for dropping the maximum thermal stress value. The orthogoaal experimental method reduces the number of experiments by 80%, and thus it is feasible and effective to optimize the water-cooled structure of the divertor plate with the orthogonal theory.展开更多

文摘The microstructure and mechanical properties of as-cast Al−Cu−Li−Mg−Zn alloys fabricated by conventional gravity casting and centrifugal casting techniques combined with rapid solidification were investigated.Experimental results demonstrated that compared with the gravity casting technique,the water-cooling centrifugal casting technique significantly reduces porosity,refinesα(Al)grains and secondary phases,modifies the morphology of secondary phases,and mitigates both macro-and micro-segregation.These improvements arise from the synergistic effects of the vigorous backflow,centrifugal field,vibration and rapid solidification.Porosity and coarse plate-like Al13Fe4/Al7Cu2Fe phase result in the fracture before the gravity-cast alloy reaches the yield point.The centrifugal-cast alloy,however,exhibits an ultra-high yield strength of 292.0 MPa and a moderate elongation of 6.1%.This high yield strength is attributed to solid solution strengthening(SSS)of 225.3 MPa,and grain boundary strengthening(GBS)of 35.7 MPa.Li contributes the most to SSS with a scaling factor of 7.9 MPa·wt.%^(-1).The elongation of the centrifugal-cast alloy can be effectively enhanced by reducing the porosity and segregation behavior,refining the microstructure and changing the morphology of secondary phases.

文摘The intermediate gearbox of a helicopter operates under splash lubrication.If the bearing produces metal particles due to insufficient lubrication or wear,whether it can be adsorbed by the metal particles signal at the bottom of the gearbox and alarm directly affects the flight safety of the helicopter.Based on the CFD method,the factors affecting the accessibility of metal particles are analyzed by using the volume of fluid-discrete phase model(VOFDPM)coupling model,the RNG k-ɛturbulence model and the dynamic grid technology.Furthermore,the optimization research on the casing structure is conducted.Experimental results show that the accessibility of metal particles is optimal when the gear speed is 6000 rad/min or the immersion depth is 24 mm.The density of metal particles exhibits a nonlinear relationship with their accessibility,and the particle size has a relatively small impact on their accessibility without an order of magnitude change.

文摘The railway vehicle gearbox is an important part of the railway vehicle traction transmission system which ensures the smooth running of railway vehicles.However,as the running speed of railway vehicles continues to increase,the railway vehicle gearbox is exposed to a more demanding operating environment.Under both internal and external excitations,the gearbox is prone to faults such as fatigue cracks,and broken teeth.It is crucial to detect these faults before they result in severe failures and accidents.Therefore,understanding the dynamics and fault diagnosis of railway vehicle gearbox is needed.At present,there is a lack of systematic review of railway vehicle gearbox dynamics and fault diagnosis.So,this paper systematically summarizes the research progress on railway vehicle gearbox dynamics and fault diagnosis.To this end,this paper first summarizes the latest research progress on the dynamics of railway vehicle gearboxes.The dynamics and vibration characteristics of the gearbox are summarized under internal and external excitations,as well as faulty conditions.Then,the stateof-the-art signal processing and artificial intelligence methods for fault diagnosis of railway vehicle gearboxes are reviewed.In the end,future research prospects are given.
