A Topology Optimized Design Method for High-performance Structures with Fluid-thermal-mechanics Coupling LI Rongqi, YAN Tao, HE Zhicheng, MI Dong, JIANG Chao, ZHENG Jing China Mechanical Engineering    2024, 35 (03): 487-497.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1004-132X.2024.03.011 Abstract （1548）      PDF（pc） （5000KB）（869）       Knowledge map    Save The rapid advancement of topology optimization and additive manufacturing technology provided efficient methods for designing and manufacturing high-performance complex equipment. However, current topology optimization techniques for high-performance structures only considered the design of thermal-mechanics coupling or fluid-thermal coupling, and were mostly limited to simple structures. The design under the combined effects of fluid-thermal-mechanics fields was not considered, which restricted the enhancement of structural performance. This paper tackled the challenge of designing high-performance complex structures under multi-physics fields, encompassing fluid-thermal-mechanics interactions. A topology optimization method was proposed to enhance the ability to withstand temperature of intricate structures. Firstly, the governing equations of flow field, temperature field and structural displacement field were introduced to provide a unified description of the fluid-solid materials within the computational domain. Secondly, the topology optimization model was formulated with fluid-thermal-mechanics coupling. The objective function was set to minimize the average temperature, while flow energy dissipation and structural compliance served as constraint functions. Sensitivity analysis of design variables was carried out by using a combination of the variational method and Lagrangian function. Finally, the established topology optimization model was applied to the structural design of a turbine, resulting in a structure suitable for additive manufacturing with excellent heat dissipation performance and well-balanced flow channel distribution.

The brown corundum grinding wheels were selected for grinding experiments to explore the effects of grinding parameters on grinding force and the effects of grinding parameters and grinding force on surface integrity. The optimal processing parameters for cylindrical grinding were obtained through orthogonal experiments of cylindrical transverse grinding. The results show that the average prediction errors of normal and tangential grinding forces in the cylindrical grinding force model are 5.56% and 7.08%, respectively. The radial feed speed of the grinding wheel has the greatest impact on grinding force, followed by grinding width, and the influences of workpiece speed and grinding wheel particle size are relatively small. The radial feed speed and grinding width of the grinding wheel have a significant impact on residual stress, and the particle size of the grinding wheel has the greatest impact on surface roughness. As the grinding force increases, the surface roughness value continuously increases, and the residual stress firstly decreases and then increases. The maximum residual stress value along the depth direction firstly increases and then decreases. Within the parameters taken in the experiments, the distribution range of residual stress is basically 20~40 μm. The optimal combination of processing parameters is a radial feed speed of 0.15 mm/min for the grinding wheel, a workpiece speed of 120 r/min, a grinding width of 10 mm, and a grinding wheel particle size of 80.

To solve these problems, an optimal pose set planning method was proposed based on sampling interval evaluation combined with pose set optimization. Firstly, the robot kinematics model and the distance constraint calibration model were established, and the robot system parameter error constraint equation and error Jacobian matrix were calculated. Secondly, the workspace of robot was divided into spatial grids and evaluate each grid interval using Latin hypercube sampling combined with observable indicators to obtain the optimal sampling interval. Finally, based on offline data, the calibration accuracy prediction model was established based on offline data and search for the optimal pose set within the optimal sampling interval. By planning and verifying the optimal pose set for the ZhongRui RT-608 robot, the results show that the average fitting sphere radius after calibration is 0.3947 mm based on the optimal pose set, which is 57.98% lower than that of the random pose set.

Compared to traditional axial climbing robots, which required approximately 91.5% of the driving force. When carrying a load of 3 kg, the robot may overcome obstacles with a height 0.6 mm higher than that of axial climbing robots. With an obstacle height of 3 mm, the maximum load capacity exceeds that of axial climbing robots by 0.4 kg. Climbing experiments were conducted under simulated deep mine conditions with wire rope vibrations. The results show that the climbing robots exhibite stable climbing performance when the wire ropes are stationary, achieving a maximum climbing speed of 8.25 m/min and capable of continuous climbing for 500 m. Under low-frequency large-amplitude vibration conditions, the climbing speed of the robot is higher than that when stationary, while under high-frequency small-amplitude vibration conditions, slight fluctuations in climbing speed are observed due to wire rope vibrations.

Initially, variational mode filtering theory was applied to eliminate non-chatter signal components in the high-frequency ranges by optimally selecting a quadratic penalty. Then, to swiftly identify the current machining conditions, the envelope filtering method was employed, leveraging signal time domain distribution and the frequency domain mapping law to remove the spindle speed-related signal components in the low-frequency ranges. Subsequently, a network identification model incorporating an attention mechanism was developed to identify preprocessed multi-temporal short-term signal segments for machining condition identification, followed by verification experiments on heavy-duty robotic milling systems. Experimental analysis results demonstrate that by eliminating non-chatter signals in the high-frequency ranges and spindle speed-related components in the low-frequency ranges, the accuracy of regenerative chatter identification is significantly enhanced, achieving an identification accuracy of 98.75%. Compared with alternative identification methods, the proposed method may effectively identify regenerative chatters during heavy-duty robotic milling processes, thus offering valuable technical support for future online chatter suppression of heavy-duty robotic milling.

Research on Thermal Characteristics of Auxiliary Bearing in AMBs and Friction Reduction Design LI Yingchun, NIE Aonan, YANG Mingxuan, ZHU Dingkang, QIU Ming, YANG Gengsheng China Mechanical Engineering    2024, 35 (04): 646-655.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1004-132X.2024.04.008 Abstract （719）      PDF（pc） （8283KB）（221）       Knowledge map    Save  The rotor of the AMBs and the auxiliary bearing might produce huge impacts， vibrations and friction heat during the rotor falling which was easy to make the auxiliary bearing fail. The thermal characteristics during the vertical rotor drop on auxiliary bearings were studied， and the main factors leading to the auxiliary bearing failure during the rotor falling were analyzed herein. Subsequently， a method of reducing friction was proposed to deposit solid lubricating film(GLC) on the key surfaces of auxiliary bearings by magnetron sputtering technology， and the rotor drop tests of coated and uncoated auxiliary bearings were performed. The results show that the maximum temperature of the auxiliary bearing is as 210.60 ℃ at a drop speed of 20 000 r/min， which appear in the high-speed rubbing stage between the rotor and the inner ring end face of the bearing. The temperature is higher than the tempering temperature of bearing steel of 160 ℃， which will lead to the failure of the bearing burn. The surface appearance of the channel and end face of the self-lubricating auxiliary bearings coated with GLC film is obviously better than that of the uncoated ordinary auxiliary bearing after the drop tests. The hardness decrease of the inner ring end face caused by friction and heating is lighter， the trajectory of the center of mass and axial displacement are more stable， and the temperature rise is lower. The GLC films play a key role in self-lubrication， wear resistance and friction reduction， the service life and service reliability of the auxiliary bearings are improved. It also provides an idea and method to solve the problems of auxiliary bearing failures easily in AMBs.  Reference | Related Articles | Metrics | Comments（0）

Elliptic Cycloid Tool Path Optimization of Impeller Rough Machining Based on Parameter Mapping HAN Feiyan, GU Zhicheng, ZHAO Yipeng, ZHANG Chuanwei China Mechanical Engineering    2024, 35 (03): 438-444，456.   DOI: 10.3969/j.issn.1004-132X.2024.03.006 Abstract （595）      PDF（pc） （17907KB）（203）       Knowledge map    Save In order to improve the opening groove processing efficiency of complex curved blade passages, a cycloid tool path planning method for surface rough machining was proposed. Firstly, the processable area of the passages was parameterized. Then, a mathematical model of key parameters for elliptical cycloid tool path, with the optimization goal of minimizing machining time, was established in the parameter domain. The best short-axis length of the ellipse and the cycloid step that satisfied the machining requirements were solved by the interval narrowing method, then the cycloid tool path could be determined in the parameter domain accordingly. Afterwards, the trajectory of the parameter domain was mapped to the physical domain to obtain the cutting path. Finally, the efficiency of the proposed trajectory planning method was evaluated with an example of calculation of elliptical cycloidal open rough machining trajectory for an impeller, whose calculation time is 19.4% faster than the traditional line cutting method. In addition, the simulation results of cycloidal channel opening and line cutting show that the machining efficiency of the proposed method is 22.4% higher than that of the traditional line cutting method under the same parameter setting. The practical results of cycloidal milling show that the shape of impeller runner cut is consistent with the cycloidal track, whose surface residue meets the rough machining requirements. This paper provides a new trajectory planning method for rough machining of impeller flow channels to improve the machining efficiency, which is a substitution for the traditional line cutting method.  Reference | Related Articles | Metrics | Comments（0）
