A prediction method of operation trend for large axial-flow fan based on vibration-electric information fusion

As the critical equipment,large axial-flow fan(LAF)is used widely in highway tunnels for ventilating.Note that any malfunction of LAF can cause severe consequences for traffic.Specifically,fault deterioration is suppressed tremendously when an abnormal state is detected in the stage of early fault.Thus,the monitoring of the early fault characteristics is very difficult because of the low signal amplitude and system disturbance(or noise).In order to overcome this problem,a novel early fault judgment method to predict the operation trend is proposed in this paper.The vibration-electric information fusion,the support vector machine(SVM)with particle swarm optimization(PSO),and the cross-validation(CV)for predicting LAF operation states are proposed and discussed.Finally,the results of the experimental study verify that the performance of the proposed method is superior to that of the contrast models.

Multi-point airfoil optimization for axial-flow fan

Airfoil is the element of fan blade design. It is strongly anticipated to design a fan of ave- raged high performance over a wide operation range. Multi-point optimization design of airfoil for axial flow fan was proposed over specific operation range. Weighted objective function of airfoil lift-drag ratio was constructed for several operation points around the designing one. Airfoil was defined by parametric B-spline curve of limited shape controlling points. Results show that normal standard airfoils have remained spaces to be optimized under specific operation conditions. Airfoil performance is sensitive to flow′s Reynolds number and cascade solidity. Predicting flow transition along airfoil profile is essential to search for optimized one. Optimized airfoil of wide operation range is possible to obtain with prescribed fitness function. Obtainments of multi-point optimization may be relatively lower at design point, but positive obtainments are achieved at off-design ones. Resulted airfoil is specially suitable for axial flow fans operating frequently at off-design point such as air condition coolers.

Design by Analogy:Achieving More Patentable Ideas from One Creative Design

A patent is a kind of technical document to protect intellectual property for individuals or enterprises. Patentable idea generation is a crucial step for patent application and analogy is confirmed to be an effective technique to inspire creative ideas. Analogy?based design usually starts from representation of an analogy source and is followed by the retrieval of appropriate analogs, mapping of design knowledge and adaptation of target solution. To diffuse one core idea into other new contexts and achieve more patentable ideas, this paper mainly centered on the first two stages of analogy?based design and proposed a patentable ideation framework. The analogical information of the source system, including source design problems and solution, was mined comprehensively through International Patent Classification analysis and represented in the form of function, behavior and structure. Three heuristics were suggested for searching the set of candidate target systems with a similar design problem, where the source design could be transferred. To systematize the process of source representation, analogs retrieval, idea transfer, and solution generation, an ideation model was put forward. Finally, the bladeless fan was selected as a source design to illustrate the application of this work. The design output shows that the representation and heuristics are beneficial, and this systematic ideation method can help the engineer or designer enhance creativity and discover more patentable opportunities.

Use of booster fans in underground coal mining to advantage

A booster fan is an underground main fan which is installed in series with a main surface fan and used to boost the air pressure of the ventilation to overcome mine resistance.Currently booster fans are used in several major coal mining countries including the United Kingdom,Australia,Poland and China.In the United States booster fans are prohibited in coal mines although they are used in several metal and non-metal mines.A study has been undertaken to examine alternatives for ventilating an underground room and pillar coal mine system.A feasibility study of a hypothetical situation has shown that current ventilation facilities are incapable of fulfilling mine air requirements in the future due to increased seam methane levels.A current ventilation network model has been prepared and projected to a mine five years plan."Ventsim visual" software simulations of different possible ventilation options have been conducted in which varying methane levels are found at working faces.The software can also undertake financial simulations and project present value total costs for the options under study.Several scenarios for improving the ventilation situation such as improving main surface fans,adding intake shafts,adding exhaust shafts and utilizing booster fans have been examined.After taking into account the total capital and operating costs for the five years mine plan the booster fan scenarios are recommended as being the best alternatives for further serious consideration by the mine.The optimum option is a properly sized and installed booster fan system that can be used to create safe work conditions,maintain adequate air quantity with lowest cost,generate a reduction in energy consumption and decrease mine system air leakage.

Designing Socially Sound Poultry FarmingmMatching Hen Ethology, Farm Management and Landscape Quality

In order to receive a licence to produce, poultry farmers have to take into account societal demands, among others： animal welfare, healthy working conditions for the workers and landscape quality. A way to reach a combination of these goals is to create a design for the poultry house and outdoor run. We propose a methodology based on five steps, which enables us to create a design that takes into consideration societal demands and that can be tested on its effects. These five steps are： 1. Giving a theoretical background on the societal demands （hen ethology, farm management and landscape quality） and based on this; 2. Giving a set of design criteria. 3. Describing the cttrrent state of the farm, in order to know its current qualities, 4. Making a design of the farm using the sets of criteria as guiding principle. 5. Reflecting on the design, to show whether the different criteria can be combined and where compromises are needed. A case study on an organic farm in the centre of the Netherlands showed that hen welfare, farm management and landscape quality can be improved together, although some measures do not add to all design criteria. Especially the effect on landscape quality and farm management is variable： the latter is also depending on the personal motivation of the farmer.

小尺寸无静叶对转风扇/压气机气动设计与变工况性能分析研究

无静叶对转风扇/压气机能有效减小发动机陀螺力矩,在轴向长度方面具有优势。然而,无静叶往往导致下游叶片攻角变化较大,变工况性能难以保证,且这一特点随叶尖切线速度的增大而恶化。本文利用小尺寸涡扇发动机风扇叶片根部周向速度较低的特点,尝试对其进行风扇与压气机无静叶对转方案设计。通过速度三角形分析了无静叶对转风扇/压气机的性能特点,开发了无静叶对转风扇/压气机一维设计程序进行参数方案的筛选优化,设计得到小尺寸无静叶对转风扇/压气机构型方案,设计点效率为85.1%,压比为3.16。结果表明,对转压气机的下排叶片相对进口气流角的变化范围较常规转叶+静叶相对进口气流角范围更小,而对转下排叶片的进口速度却将增大1.5~3倍,因此,需要合理选择对转风扇/压气机的轮毂比及转速比,才能保证对转风扇/压气机变转速工况下的设计点效率及失速裕度。减小对转风扇/压气机转速比有利于提高设计点效率和裕度,但本文受发动机总体指标限制,对转速比选择进行了折中。

跨音速风扇转子冰撞击损伤规律及抗冰 撞击改进设计研究

目的揭示脱落冰形状、运动轨迹和姿态对航空发动机风扇转子叶片的撞击损伤规律,增强叶片的抗冰撞击能力。方法采用LS-DYNA进行数值模拟,开展脱落冰与叶片的撞击过程和叶型改进设计研究。结果叶片的撞击损伤程度受脱落冰结构强度的影响,在同样的撞击条件下,叶片受球体冰撞击损伤最严重,而受片体冰撞击损伤最轻。叶片的损伤程度由叶片和脱落冰之间的相对速度和叶片切割冰块的质量共同决定,叶片切割脱落冰的质量越大,塑性变形越严重。当脱落冰入射角为45°时,叶片损伤最严重,对叶片的最大撞击力为17828 N,最大内能达到126 J;当冰片从原始姿态绕y轴旋转90°时,对叶片前缘的撞击载荷最大,叶片塑性变形最严重。改进后,叶片受沿45°入射角脱落冰撞击后最大内能减小16%,失速裕度提高16.2%,峰值效率提高0.33%。结论跨音速风扇转子撞击损伤位置在前缘附近,增大叶片进口几何角和局部厚度能显著提高叶片抗冰撞击能力。

热泵干衣机的性能提升需要兼顾提高风机风量和降低风机气动噪声两方面的需求,但风量增大通常伴随气动噪声增大的问题,使得这两个需求难以同时满足。通过改变影响风量和气动噪声的风机叶轮结构参数,对风量和气动噪声进行仿真分析,分别找到风机叶轮结构参数对风量和气动噪声的影响规律,再基于该规律提出兼顾风量提升和气动噪声降低的优化风机叶轮结构设计方法。结果表明,影响风量和气动噪声的最主要因素是叶轮宽度和叶轮出口角,风量随着叶轮宽度增大和叶轮出口角度增大而增大;气动噪声随着叶轮宽度增大和出口角减小而增大;提出的优化结构相比于原始结构,风量增大14.2 m3/h,监测点噪声平均降低2.08 dB(A)。提出的兼顾风量和噪声需求的风机叶轮优化设计方法,可为干衣机实际运行中满足高风量低噪声的风机结构设计提供指导和参考。
