Two arc functions are employed for controlling the internal and external angles. The separation process in the cyclone tube is calculated by using two-fluid model based on the Eulerian-Eulerian method.The results show that the structure with the internal outlet angle smaller than the external one is more beneficial to the separation performance. It is found that the small internal angle can help increase the swirl number,while the small external angle can help increase the friction coefficient. Several groups of numerical simulations are conducted for the air intake unit of the gas turbine in practice. When the internal outlet angle is 35° and the external outlet angle is 40°,the blade has sufficient cyclone strength and the separation rate of particles with diameters of 10—100 μm is between70%—98%. The small blade angle is more conducive to the separation of fine particles,leading to violent collision of large particles on the outer wall and reduction of separation efficiency. In addition,reducing the external angle is conducive to the discharge of large particles.展开更多

A two-dimensional particle method is employed, which was successfully used for flow simulations of impulse-type and open cross-flow-type nano-hydraulic turbines in the authors' previous works. When the clearance Hc is smaller than a critical value, the simulated turbine performance decreases with decreasing Hc, in good agreement with the experiment. The simulations make it clear that such a reduction of turbine performance is attributable to an increase in the circumferential component of the water velocity at the rotor outlet. The simulations also demonstrate that the effect of the tip speed ratio of the rotor on the relation between Hc and turbine performance can be analyzed.展开更多

The 3-phase grid connected converter with decoupling control give an independent control between active and reactive power using the load current feed-forward. With this technique, the disturbance rejection and the output power quality can be improved. Experiments are conducted with three case studies: 1) a test of the DIDB converter to determine current ripple and voltage gain, 2) a test of the 3-phase grid connected converter to determine DC-link voltage regulation, power factor and total harmonic distortion (THD), and 3) a test of the overall system with a 7.5 kW wind turbine simulator by step and various input wind speeds to determine the output power at the grid side and verify the maximum peak power tracking (MPPT) performance. The results can confirm that the DIDB converter gives lower ripple current and higher voltage gain than the conventional converter. For the grid side, the 3-phase grid connected converter can regulate the DC-link with fast dynamic response to disturbance rejection and low overshoot while complying with the THD standard defined in IEEE 519-1992. In addition, the MPPT controller is able to achieve the maximum energy capture with the various input wind speeds.展开更多
