Temperature field model in surface grinding: a comparative assessment

Grinding is a crucial process in machining workpieces because it plays a vital role in achieving the desired precision and surface quality.However,a significant technical challenge in grinding is the potential increase in temperature due to high specific energy,which can lead to surface thermal damage.Therefore,ensuring control over the surface integrity of workpieces during grinding becomes a critical concern.This necessitates the development of temperature field models that consider various parameters,such as workpiece materials,grinding wheels,grinding parameters,cooling methods,and media,to guide industrial production.This study thoroughly analyzes and summarizes grinding temperature field models.First,the theory of the grinding temperature field is investigated,classifying it into traditional models based on a continuous belt heat source and those based on a discrete heat source,depending on whether the heat source is uniform and continuous.Through this examination,a more accurate grinding temperature model that closely aligns with practical grinding conditions is derived.Subsequently,various grinding thermal models are summarized,including models for the heat source distribution,energy distribution proportional coefficient,and convective heat transfer coefficient.Through comprehensive research,the most widely recognized,utilized,and accurate model for each category is identified.The application of these grinding thermal models is reviewed,shedding light on the governing laws that dictate the influence of the heat source distribution,heat distribution,and convective heat transfer in the grinding arc zone on the grinding temperature field.Finally,considering the current issues in the field of grinding temperature,potential future research directions are proposed.The aim of this study is to provide theoretical guidance and technical support for predicting workpiece temperature and improving surface integrity.

A miniaturized spin-exchange relaxation-free atomic magnetometer based on uniform light field

We experimentally study the dynamic characteristics of a miniaturized spin-exchange relaxation-free(SERF) magnetometer based on uniform light field. The ceramic ferrule is used to expand the Gaussian beam to improve light intensity uniformity, while the volume of the sensor is also reduced. This scheme makes the magnetometer have better sensitivity when the detected light intensity is less than 3.16 m W/cm^(2) at 120℃. When the temperature rises to 150℃ the sensitivity under the action of uniform light field is 18.5 f T/Hz^(1/2). The bandwidth of the sensor remains at the original level and meets application needs. The proposed structure improves transverse polarization uniformity within the miniaturized sensor, which is ideal for the magnetoencephalography and magnetocardiography imaging systems.

Donor-bound electron states in a two-dimensional quantum ring under uniform magnetic field

The electron states in a two-dimensional GaAs/AlGaAs quantum ring are theoretically studied in effective mass approximation. On-centre donor impurity and uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the ring plane are taken into account. The energy spectrum with different angular momentum changes dramatically with the geometry of the ring. The donor impurity reduces the energies with an almost fixed value; however, the magnetic field alters energies in a more complex way. For example, energy levels under magnetic field will cross each other when increasing the inner radius and outer radius of the ring, leading to the fact that the arrangement of energy levels is distinct in certain geometry of the ring. Moreover, energy levels with negative angular momentum exhibit the non-monotonous dependence on the increasing magnetic field.

Electron Transport Behavior in a Mirror Magnetic Field and a Uniform Electric Field

A Monte Carlo simulation technique has been used to model the electron transport' behavior, especially the electron density and energy distributions under the influence of a mirror magnetic field and a uniform electric field in a positive column of helium direct current(DC) gas discharge Graphs showing the electron density and energy distributions, and the percentage of electrons that reach the wall and the end of the positive column are presented. The results indicate that the mirror magnetic field can control the electron transport behavior in the positive column which are in good agreement with experimental results.

The correctness of the above conclusions can be verified by virtue of the entangled state 〈η｜ representation of the state ｜τ）.

Evaluation of Single Field Uniform Dose (SFUD) Proton Pencil Beam Scanning (PBS) Planning Strategy for Lung Mobile Tumor Using a Digital Phantom

Purpose: To quantitatively evaluate four different Proton SFUD PBS initial planning strategies for lung mobile tumor. Methods and Materials: A virtual lung patient’s four-dimensional computed tomography (4DCT) was generated in this study. To avoid the uncertainties from target delineation and imaging artifacts, a sphere with diameter of 3 cm representing a rigid mobile target (GTV) was inserted into the right side of the lung. The target motion is set in superior-inferior (SI) direction from ?5 mm to 5 mm. Four SFUD planning strategies were used based on: 1) Maximum-In-tensity-Projection Image (MIP-CT);2) CT_average with ITV overridden to muscle density (CTavg_muscle);3) CT_average with ITV overridden to tumor density (CTavg_tumor);4) CT_average without any override density (CTavg_only). Dose distributions were recalculated on each individual phase and accumulated together to assess the “actual” treatment. To estimate the impact of proton range uncertainties, +/?3.5% CT calibration curve was applied to the 4DCT phase images. Results: Comparing initial plan to the dose accumulation: MIP-CT based GTV D98 degraded 2.42 Gy (60.10 Gy vs 57.68 Gy). Heart D1 increased 6.19 Gy (1.88 Gy vs 8.07 Gy);CTavg_tumor based GTV D98 degraded 0.34 Gy (60.07 Gy vs 59.73 Gy). Heart D1 increased 2.24 Gy (3.74 Gy vs 5.98 Gy);CTavg_muscle based initial GTV D98 degraded 0.31 Gy (60.4 Gy vs 60.19 Gy). Heart D1 increased 3.44 Gy (4.38 Gy vs 7.82 Gy);CTavg_only based Initial GTV D98 degraded 6.63 Gy (60.11 Gy vs 53.48 Gy). Heart D1 increased 0.30 Gy (2.69 Gy vs 2.96 Gy);in the presence of ±3.5% range uncertainties, CTavg_tumor based plan’s accumulated GTV D98 degraded to 57.99 Gy (+3.5%) 59.38 Gy (?3.5%), and CTavg_muscle based plan’s accumulated GTV D98 degraded to 59.37 Gy (+3.5%) 59.37 Gy (?3.5%). Conclusion: This study shows that CTavg_Tumor and CTavg_Muscle based planning strategies provide the most robust GTV coverage. However, clinicians need to be aware that the actual dose to OARs at distal end of target may increase. The study also indicates that the current SFUD PBS planning strategy might not be sufficient to compensate the CT calibration uncertainty.

Electrostatic Modes of Dusty Plasmas in a Uniform Magnetic Field

Electrostatic dusty plasma waves in a uniform magnetic field are studied. Unless the magnetic field is extremely strong, the dust particles can hardly be magnetized, while however, electrons and ions are easily done so. Electrostatic modes in such dusty plasmas can then be investigated by making use of the 'moderately magnetized' assumption of magnetized electrons and ions, and unmagnetized dust particles. In a high frequency range, due to the existence of dust component, both frequencies of Lang- muir waves (parallel to the magnetic field) and upper hybrid waves (perpendicular to the field) are reduced. In the frequency range of ion waves, besides the effect on dust-ion-acoustic waves propagating parallel to the magnetic field, the frequency of ion cyclotron waves perpendicular to the magnetic field is also enhanced. In a very low dust frequency range, we find an 'ion-cyclotron- dust-acoustic' mode propagating across the field line with a frequency even slower than dust acoustic waves.

Electron-Cyclotron Laser Using Free-Electron Two-Quantum Stark Radiation in a Strong Uniform Axial Magnetic Field and an Alternating Axial Electric Field in a Voltage-Supplied Pill-Box Cavity

We consider the radiation from the beam electrons traveling in a strong uniform axial magnetic field and an axial alternating electric field of wavelength Aw generated by a voltage-supplied pill-box cavity. The beam electrons emit genuine laser radiation that propagates only in the axial direction through free-electron two- quantum Stark radiation. We find that laser radiation takes place only at the expense of the axial kinetic energy when Aw 〈〈 c/（ωc/γ）, where ωc/γ is the relativistic electron--cyclotron frequency. We formulate the laser power based on quantum-wiggler electrodynamics, and envision a laser of length lore with estimated power 0.1 GW/（kA） in the 10-4 cm wavelength range.

Microscopic calculation of the magnetic field of neutron stars

Based on the Dirac equation describing an electron moving in a uniform and cylindrically symmetric magnetic field which may be the result of the self-consistent mean field of the electrons themselves in a neutron star, we have obtained the eigen solutions and the orbital magnetic moments of electrons in which each eigen orbital can be calculated. From the eigen energy spectrum we find that the lowest energy level is the highly degenerate orbitals with the quantum numbers pz = 0, n = 0, and m ≥0. At the ground state, the electrons fill the lowest eigen states to form many Landau magnetic cells and each cell is a circular disk with the radius λfree and the thickness λe, where λfree is the electron mean free path determined by Coulomb cross section and electron density and λe is the electron Compton wavelength. The magnetic moment of each cell and the number of cells in the neutron star are calculated, from which the total magnetic moment and magnetic field of the neutron star can be calculated. The results are compared with the observational data and the agreement is reasonable.

Design of Multi-Coil Wireless Power Transfer System for Gastrointestinal Capsule Robot

The existing wireless power transfer(WPT)systems for gastrointestinal capsule robot have the prob-lems of small coupling coefficient and low power transmission efficiency(PTE).The reasons are due to the long distance between the transmitting coil and the receiving coil and the large difference in size.A new type of WPT system is designed,which uses three sets of small coil pairs to form a power supply unit(PSU),and utilizes multiple PSUs to form a multi-coil WPT system.Compared with single-coil system,the multi-coil system can achieve higher power utilization by switching between PSUs,instead of opening all PSUs.ANSYS Maxwell is used to perform finite element modeling on the PSU,analyzing the characteristics of the transmitting magnetic field.The results of the experiment show that when the distance between the small coil pairs in the PSU is 180mm,the magnetic field has relatively good uniformity,and the magnetic strength change relative to the center point is less than 5%.The average received power of the system is greater than 800mW,and the PTE is up to 5.1%.

Study of a 560-mm-long stripline kicker for HIT 10 MeV electron accelerator

Purpose A stripline kicker is required for Harbin Institute of Technology(HIT)10 MeV electron accelerator to scan electrons horizontally in two directions,and the maximum deflecting angle is 65 mrad.In this study,a 560-mm-long stripline kicker was designed to achieve good field uniformity and odd mode impedance matching.Methods In order to reduce power reflections and meet field uniformity requirement,we optimized the cross section of the kicker main body.Design and optimization of the stripline kicker were finished by CST.Results The field uniformity is 2%in the 60 mm(x)×80 mm(y)region,as required.Considering impedance matching and manufacturing,the transmission odd mode impedance was finally chosen to 45Ω,which indicated a reflecting loss of less than−50 dB below 1 MHz.The maximum field is less than 7 MV/m with a maximum pulse voltage of±22 kV between the two electrodes when the electrons pass through the kicker.Conclusions The physical design of the stripline kicker has been finished,and the simulation results satisfied the requirements.

Reconfigurable Transmitter Coil Structure for Highly Efficient and Misalignment-insensitive Wireless Power Transfer Systems in Megahertz Range

The structural optimization of coils is a key issue in wireless power transfer(WPT)applications owing to size limitations.In this study,a novel planar-spiral transmitter coil(TX-coil)with an outer-tight and inner-sparse configuration is proposed to achieve a high quality factor(Q-factor)and uniform magnetic field,which ensures high efficiency and improves the misalignment tolerance for several-megahertz WPT systems.Furthermore,a closed-form expression for the Q-factor is provided and analyzed for coil optimization.By using this method,a TX-coil with an outer diameter of 100 mm and a wire diameter of 1.5 mm is designed and tested at 1 MHz.Finite element method simulations and experimental results demonstrate that the Q-factor is increased by about 8%in comparison with evenly spaced planar spiral coils,which is achieved while ensuring a relatively uniform magnetic field.
