Average Unit Pressure Formula for Three-Roll Tube Rolling

According to the deformation characteristics of three-roll tube rolling, the existent disadvantages of traditional A Geleiyi and A Tselikov＇s formulas were objectively analyzed. An assumption approximate to actual situation was put forward. After suitable simplification, the energy method was adopted to establish velocity fields for permissive movement in deformed areas, and the calculation formula of average unit pressure for three-roll tube rolling was deduced. The values of theoretical calculation are basically consistent with the measured values of large-scale aluminum tube during on-site rolling process. The results proved that the formula is reasonable.

MECHANICS ANALYSIS ON PRECISE FORMING PROCESS OF EXTERNAL SPLINE COLD ROLLING

According to the suitable assumption, the deformation process of external spline cold rolling is analyzed. By the graphing method, the slip-line field of plastically deforming area in process of external spline cold rolling is set up. Different friction-conditions are used in different contact areas in order to realistically reflect the actual situation. The unit average pressure on contact surface of the rolling process is solved according to the stress filed theory of slip-line. And the formulae of the rolling-force and rolling-moment are established. The theoretical result is well consistent with the finite element analysis. A theoretical basis is provided for the precise forming process of spline cold rolling and the production of external splined shafts.

Stream Surface Strip Element Method and Simulation of Three-Dimensional Deformation of Continuous Hot Rolled Strip

A new method,the stream surface strip element method,for simulating the three-dimensional deformation of plate and strip rolling process was proposed.The rolling deformation zone was divided into a number of stream surface(curved surface)strip elements along metal flow traces,and the stream surface strip elements were mapped into the corresponding plane strip elements for analysis and computation.The longitudinal distributions of the lateral displacement and the altitudinal displacement of metal were respectively constructed to be a quartic curve and a quadratic curve,of which the lateral distributions were expressed as the third-power spline function,and the altitudinal distributions were fitted in the quadratic curve.From the flow theory of plastic mechanics,the mathematical models of the three-dimensional deformations and stresses of the deformation zone were constructed.Compared with the streamline strip element method proposed by the first author of this paper,the stream surface strip element method takes into account the uneven distributions of stresses and deformations along altitudinal direction,and realizes the precise three-dimensional analysis and computation.The simulation example of continuous hot rolled strip indicates that the method and the model accord with facts and provide a new reliable engineering-computation method for the three-dimensional mechanics simulation of plate and strip rolling process.

Shape Control Simulation on 4-High CVC Mill

The computation model of shape and crown on 4-high CVC mill was established by combining the stream surface strip element method for analyzing three-dimensional plastic deformation of strip and the influence coefficient method for elastic deformation of rolls, and the simulation of the shape and crown control on 4-high CVC hot strip mill was conducted. The simulated results indicate that the influence of the shifting of CVC work roll on shape and crown is very large, and the shifting of work roll can be used to preset shape and crown. The influence of the bending force of work roll on shape and crown is smaller, and it is suitable to use the bending force of work roll for shape and crown adjustment on line. With the increase of strip width, the exit crown of strip increases firstly and decreases then, and the roll gap becomes smoother increasingly. Meanwhile, the transverse difference of front tension stress decreases firstly and increases then.

Filtration characteristics of a binary multi-layer granular bed flter based on CFD-DEM coupling simulation

The coupled CFD-DEM method with the JKR(Johnson-Kendall-Roberts)model for describing the contact adhesion of dust to filter particles(FPs)is used to simulate the distribution pattern of dust particle deposition in the granular bed filter(GBF)with multi-layer media.The minimum inlet flow velocity must meet the requirement that the contact probability between dust and FPs is in the high contact probability region.The air flow forms vortices on the leeward side of the FPs and changes abruptly at the intersection of different particle size FPs layers.Dust particles form large deposits at the intersection of the first and second layers and the different particle size filter layers.Dual element multilayer GBF can further optimize the bed structure by interlacing filter layers with different particle sizes.Compared with single particle size multi-layer GBF,the bed pressure drop is reduced by 40.24%-50.65%and the dust removal efficiency is increased by 21.93%-55.09%.
