The cooling energy in deep mine cooling system comes from mine water inrush or ground cooling tower, but we cannot adopt the two methods because mine water inrush in many old coal mines in China is limited. What is more, the cooling pipelines cannot be put in narrow pit-shaft. To settle the problem above, according to the characteristics of Zhangxiaolou Coal Mine, this paper adopts the deep mine return air as the cooling energy for deep mine cooling system. In addition, we carried out cite test to extract cold energy from return air. Through monitoring the water quantity, water temperature of cooling system and air temperature, we got the thermodynamic equilibrium parameters during the cooling energy acquisition analysis and the effect of cooling system that the temperature and humidity on working face are respectively reduced to 8-12 ℃ and 8-15% through cooling. This research offers experimental reference for deep mine cooling which lacks cooling energy.展开更多

The heat generation rate at different discharge magnifications is identified by establishing the heat generation model of the battery. In the forced air cooling mode,the Fluent software is used to compare the effects of different inlet and outlet directions,inlet angles,outlet angles,outlet sizes and inlet air speeds on heat dissipation. The simulation results show that the heat dissipation effect of the structure with the inlet and outlet on the same side is better than that on the different sides; the appropriate inlet angle and outlet width can improve the uniformity of temperature field; the increase of the inlet speed can improve the heat dissipation effect significantly. Compared with the steady temperature field of the initial structure,the average temperature after structure optimization is reduced by 4. 8℃ and the temperature difference is reduced by 15. 8℃,so that the battery can work under reasonable temperature and temperature difference.展开更多

The cooling air entered the cooling channel from the bottom of the blade and went out from the top, it was not ejected into the main flow. This paper used different numerical conditions including different turbulence models,turbulence intensities,thermal conduction coefficients and the influence on fluid property via temperature variation. The temperature distribution and pressure distribution of the blade were compared with experimental data. The results show that the numerical results using different turbulence models are almost identical to experimental data even little deviation occurs at shock wave location. The trends of temperature distribution under different numerical conditions are coincident to experimental data,especially Reynolds stress turbulence model. It can be concluded that anisotropic turbulence models can simulate the transition from laminar to turbulence,and the influence of turbulence intensity on laminar region and transition region is more than that on developed turbulent region.展开更多

The tempera-ture fields during controlled cooling and air cooling were analyzed and the microstructure and mechanical properties for different parts of H-beam were discussed in detail. After the H-beam was controlled cooled for 4.5 s, its mean surface temperature decreased from 850 to 460 ℃, and the lowest and the highest temperatures were measured at edge of flange and at R corner, respectively. Whereas, for the H-beam air cooled for 30 s, the mean temperature at R corner and web was 700 and 540 ℃, respectively. The microstructures for different parts of H-beam consisted of ferrite and pearlite, and the grain size at R corner was coarser than those at flange and web. The difference of yield and tensile strengths of web, flange and R corner was within 30 MPa, and the elongation was similar. The changes of microstructure were in good agreement with that of temperature field. In addition, the results show that the uni formity of microstructure and mechanical properties can be improved by increasing water flow rate at R corner.展开更多

文摘Extra cooling pads on the sidewalls are needed for larger poultry houses using tunnel ventilation system.Preliminary study showed that the airflow velocity going through different aisles varies greatly when the extra pads are installed at the end of sidewalls,making a“[”-shape air inlet.Combined with field tests,the CFD(computational fluid dynamics)technology was used to study the uniformity of airflow distribution in a tunnel-ventilated laying-hen house.The air distribution was first monitored in a layer house to find the main reason resulting in the variations of airflows in different aisles.Then CFD simulations were carried out with different distances(D=2 m,3 m or 4 m)between the pads on end-wall and the extra pads on side walls.The field test showed that airflow streams from the different groups of cooling pads collided vertically at the house corners,mixed with each other,then flew towards the center of the house.This was the main reason that the wind speed in the middle aisle was much higher than in other aisles,leaving large zones of lower ventilation in the aisles adjacent to the sidewalls.The results of CFD simulations indicated that air distributions could be significantly improved when the extra pieces of pads were moved away for an appropriate distance from the end coolingpads.As far as conventional poultry house with a span of 12 m,the air speeds in different aisles were more uniform when this distance was about 3 m.
文摘Convective heat transfer plays an important role in the development of a high-performance battery cell.Electric vehicles carry a large amount of the battery cells to reach a longer range of endurance mileage.Thermal diffusion around the battery cells can be considered as obstacles to improve the convective heat transfer coefficient.In this paper,a novel agitator taking advantage of strong vortices is designed to disrupt the thermal boundary layer around the battery cells,thereby improving the fluid mixing for enhanced convective heat transfer.A fluid–structure interaction algorithm is developed to simulate the convective heat transfer rate at various flapping motion.Under the comparison with clean channel,the vortex-induced vibra-tion by the agitated beam can increase the average Nusselt number by 119.59%.This research can be applied to optimize the thermal-structure design inside the electric vehicle battery.

文摘There are some special spaces in which there is no air conditioning or the people are in move,thus exposing people to a hot environment.In this study,portable cooling systems were proposed and their effects on thermal comfort and work performance were investigated at an air temperature of 32°C.Four conditions were established:cool air towards breathing zone(A),chest and back cooling(B)#combined cooling(C)and no cooling(D).Twenty-eight subjects were exposed to the four conditions in a counterbalanced order.During each exposure they performed tasks and made subjective assessments,while multiple physiological parameters were measured.Compared with no cooling(D),cool air towards breathing zone(A)and chest and back cooling(B)improved work performance by 17.5%and 19.25%,respectively,while decreased the subjects'thermal sensation,skin temperature,and heart rate.When the two cooling systems were combined(C),larger improvements in thermal comfort and work performance were achieved than no cooling(D);the mean thermal sensation rating decreased from 2.4 to 0.7;work performance increased by up to 33%,and physiological parameters including skin temperature,pulse,heart rate and salivary alpha-amylase significantly decreased.The present results suggest that the proposed portable cooling systems could maintain thermal comfort and work performance in a hot environment,while potentially improve air quality for some special spaces.

文摘Based on ANSYS, an analytical model was established for H beam during controlled cooling. The tempera-ture fields during controlled cooling and air cooling were analyzed and the microstructure and mechanical properties for different parts of H-beam were discussed in detail. After the H-beam was controlled cooled for 4.5 s, its mean surface temperature decreased from 850 to 460 ℃, and the lowest and the highest temperatures were measured at edge of flange and at R corner, respectively. Whereas, for the H-beam air cooled for 30 s, the mean temperature at R corner and web was 700 and 540 ℃, respectively. The microstructures for different parts of H-beam consisted of ferrite and pearlite, and the grain size at R corner was coarser than those at flange and web. The difference of yield and tensile strengths of web, flange and R corner was within 30 MPa, and the elongation was similar. The changes of microstructure were in good agreement with that of temperature field. In addition, the results show that the uni formity of microstructure and mechanical properties can be improved by increasing water flow rate at R corner.
