Both heat transfer and flux distribution characteristics of the nozzle sprays on the slab were considered, and the complicated boundary conditions, such as spray cooling, natural convection, thermal radiation as well as contact cooling of individual rolls were involved in the model. By using the calibrated caster dependent model factors, the calculated temperature and shell thickness accorded well with the measured. Furthermore, a dynamic secondary water cooling control system was also developed on the basis of a two-dimensional transient heat transfer model (named "online model") and incremental PID control algorithm to reduce slab surface temperature fluctuation in unsteady state. Compared with the traditional spray table control method, the present online model and dynamic PID control demonstrate a higher capability and flexibility to adjust cooling water flowrate and reduce slab surface temperature fluctuation when the casting speed is changed.展开更多

The distributions of current density, magnetic induction intensity, electromagnetic force, Joule heating, fluid flow and temperature were simulated. The model was verified by temperature measurements during remelting 12CrMoVG steel with a slag of 50wt%-70wt% CaF2, 20wt%-30wt% CaO, 10wt%-20wt% A1203, and 〈10wt% SiO2 in a 600 mm diameter current-conductive mould. There is a good agreement between the calculated temperature results and the measured data in the slag bath. The calculated results show that the maximum values of current density, electromagnetic force and Joule heating are in the region between the comer electrodes and the conductivity element. The characteristics of current density distribution, magnetic induction intensity, electromagnetic force, Joule heating, velocity patterns and temperature profiles in the slag bath during ESR process with current-conductive mould were analyzed.展开更多

METHODS KM mice were randomly divided into normal control group,model control group,Eichhornia crassipes lowdose group(0.5g·kg-1)and high dose group(1.5g·kg-1),then performed intragastric administration for a period of 7d.Wet/cold stressed mice model was established using repeated intermittent(3h·d-1,consecutive 7d)exposure method by placing mice into the exposure box which was covered by ice at the bottom(T<0℃;RH>85%).Oxygen consumption was observed during exposure.Inclined plane method(muscle coordination capacity test)was performed immediately after exposure.60-second video of exhaustive swimming(to calculate swimming speed)was taken 1hafter the last exposure,the exhaustive swimming time was recorded.RESULTS(1)Compared with normal control group,model control group showed significant improvement in oxygen consumption(P<0.01),with an increase up to 77.33%,while inclined plate time,swimming speed and exhaustive swimming time showed significant reduction(P<0.01),at the rates 46.3%,8.54% and 19.68%respectively.(2)Compared with normal control group,Eichhornia crassipes low dose group and high dose group both improved oxygen consumption significantly(P<0.01),at rates of 10.93% and 90.38%respectively.This indicated high-dose aqueous extract of Eichhornia crassipes could fulfil actual oxygen demand of wet/cold stressed mice effectively.Inclined plate and exhaustive swimming experiments indicated that low-dose aqueous extract of Eichhornia crassipes boosted physical power significantly,as its exhaustive swimming time was increased up to 56.61%.Meanwhile,high-dose aqueous extract of Eichhornia crassipes has significant regulative effect on muscle coordination capability and motion speed,which were increased by 17.38% and 11.17%,respectively.CONCLUSION Aqueous extract of Eichhornia crassipes has definite regulative effect on the oxygen uptake capacity and motion responses of wet/cold stressed mice.Aqueous extract of Eichhornia crassipes can achieve stress protective effect by improving oxygen uptake capacity,muscle coordination capacity and motion abilities.展开更多

To investigate the non-uniform distortion of a mold, a full-scale stress model of the mold was de veloped. An inverse algorithm was applied to calculate the heat flux using the temperatures measured by the thermo- couples buried inside the mold plates. Based on this, a full-scale, finite-element stress model, including four copper plates, a nickel layer and water slots in different depths, was built to determine the complex mechanical behavior of the continuous casting mold used to produce steel slabs. The heat flux calculated by the inverse algorithm was applied to the stress model to analyze the non-uniform mechanical behavior. The results showed that the stress and distortion distributions of the four copper plates were not symmetrical, which reflected the non-uniform distortion behaviors of copper plates, water slots, nickel layer and the corner region of the mold. The gap between the mold and the slab was increased because of the corner distortion, which was very important for the heat transfer of initial solidifying shell, and it may be a major reason for the slow cooling of the slab corner.展开更多

By quantifying the number of interstitials and vacancies surviving after irradiation with the kinetic energy of primary knock-on atom energies of 1, 3 and 5 keV, respectively, in these simulations, it is found that the GBs have dual nature for radiation-induced defects: They absorb interstitials while leaving more vacancies to survive in the grains. The net effect is that the number of total surviving defects in the GB system is not always less than that in the single crystal. These defect behaviors are understood by quantitatively analyzing the recovery fraction of irradiation-induced defects, the time to reach steady state and the mobility of vacancies and interstitials. It is also found that the ∑17 GB is a more effective sink of radiation-induced point defects than the ∑13 GB. One of the main reasons is that the ∑17 GB has a higher GB energy.展开更多

文摘An element-free Galerkin thermal–mechanical calculation model for the solidification and shrinkage of round billet was established.The non-uniform heat flux measured in the plant trial was used as the boundary condition to simulate and analyze the deformation of solidified shell.The results indicate that the maximum and minimum shrinkages of the round billet at mold outlet are 0.78 and 0.21 mm,respectively,with apparent non-uniform characteristic.The local high-heat-flux region substantially dominates the non-uniformity of shell shrinkage,and the larger shrinkage usually derives from the high heat flux between the solidified shell and the mold in the circumferential direction.Also,the shrinkage on the shell surface has an immediate connection with the equivalent stress.Specifically,the shrinkage is more closely related to the radial stress component than the circumferential stress component.

文摘Breakout is the most serious production accident in continuous casting and must be detected and predicted by stable and reliable methods.The sticking region,which forms on the local copper plate and expanded into a"V"shape,is the typical precursor of breakout.Therefore,computer vision technology was exploited to visualize the temperature change rate of the copper plate based on the temperature signals from thermocouples;then,the static and dynamic features of the abnormal sticking region were extracted.Meanwhile,logistic regression and Adaboost models were used to study and identify these features,resulting in the development of a mold breakout prediction model based on computer vision and machine learning.The test results demonstrate that the proposed model can effectively distinguish anomalous temperature patterns and considerably reduce false alarms without any missing reports.As a result,the proposed method could offer valuable insights into the realm of abnormality detection and prediction during continuous casting process.
