A Simulation Study of Higee Rotor Auto-balancing Based on Iterative Learning Control

Hypergravity technology has a wide application prospect on many industry areas for its powerful ability on multiphase flow transport and reaction.In its long-term operation,vibration control of higee rotor is an important guarantee for high-quality continuous outputs.Offline approach has great influence on continuity of the whole production line.In order to study online auto-balancing control strategy,a mathematical model of higee rotor was established.Then basic Iterative Learning Control(ILC)algorithm and its improved structure based on vector analysis were introduced.Pure injection balancer and electromagnetic balancer were separately used as the actuator.Three different control algorithms(P control using Cohen-Coon parameter tuning law,basic ILC,and improved ILC based on vector analysis)were compared under single eccentric mass disturbance and continuous ones.Simulation results manifested the effects of ILC in rotor auto-balancing control,especially on the "over-control" issue during the balancing process.

High-precision inductance measurement system based on double-excitation auto-balancing bridge

In order to achieve high precision measurement of inductance in a wide frequency range,a method of inductance measurement based on double-excitation auto-balancing bridge is proposed.In this method,the direct digital synthesizer(DDS)as signal generator is used as the bridge excitation source,and the bridge is automatically balanced by adjusting and measuring the voltage ratio.Using standard resistors,the system can achieve high precision measurement of four-terminal pair inductors in the frequency range of 100Hz-100kHz.Aiming at the low efficiency of bridge balancing,an iterative balancing algorithm based on the steepest descent method is proposed.In order to suppress the interference caused by the initial phase change and non-integer periodic sampling,the high-precision measurement of the complex impedance of inductance is realized based on the all-phase fast Fourier transform(apFFT).Finally,the corresponding measurement system is built and the inductance measurement experiment is carried out.The experimental results show that the relative error of the system for inductance measurement can be as low as 0.009%,and the optimal relative measurement uncertainty of the system can reach 9.89×10^(-4)compared with 5×10^(-5)of commercial impedance analyzer.

Stability of the axial-auto-balanced impeller of centrifugal pump

The pump is one of the most important energy consuming devices in an energy system. The axial force on a centrifugal pump is an important factor for improving the operation stability and the service life. Based on the Bernoulli’s equation, the formulas of the axial clearance are derived theoretically. The relationship between the impeller axial force, the clearance leakage flow rate and the axial clearance is obtained. The motion differential equation of the axial-auto-balanced impeller is established by the number axis modeling method. The asymptotic stability of the impeller is evaluated by the Lyapunov stability analysis. The transient simulation of the axial-auto-balanced impeller is carried out by the method of the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with the dynamic mesh technology. The time required for the impeller to reach the stable state under different conditions is calculated. The effective values of the axial force are determined. This research is useful to improve the operation stability of the pump.
