Abstract:
On the research of exhaust waste heat recovery by using Rankine cycle,a type of evaporator with multi-layer spiral tubes is proposed. A mathematical model is generated to evaluate the performance of the evaporator according to its structure parameters and working characteristics. Based on this model, start-stop parameters of each heat transfer section is analyzed. The simulation results show that the increases of the mass flow rate of the working fluid can lead to a reduced outlet temperature of working fluid and exhaust while the exhaust energy utilization rate is increased. The heat transfer area can limit the increase of the mass flow rate of the working fluid and superheat. To evaluate the performance of evaporator, the Rankine cycle waste heat recovery system is established and tested. The test results indicate that the maximum efficiency of evaporator is 89.33% and the maximum actual exhaust energy utilization rate is 41.93%.

2017, 36(10): 1491-1497. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2017.1003
Abstract:
The flow under different Reynolds number Re and different radius ratio Rc/D in 90° arc bend pipe was simulated with the numerical RNG k-ε turbulence model in the software FLUENT. The velocity distribution, pressure distribution and the secondary vortex flow inside the bend pipe were analyzed. The local drag coefficient, the effects of the length of local drag on 72 working conditions with different Reynolds numbers Re (1×104 ≤ Re ≤ 1×106) and different radius ratios Rc/D (0.6 ≤ Rc/D ≤ 2) were analyzed. It is found that Re is constant, the local drag coefficient is reduced when Rc/D increases. Rc/D is constant; Re ≤ 6×105; the local drag coefficient decreases quickly when Re increases; Re≧6×105; the local drag coefficient change with that of Re is very small. Re is constant; the greater Rc/D, the shorter the length of local drag influence. The effect of the length of local drag influence on the increase of Re is reduced and then reaches a constant value; the less Rc/D, the more delay, the longer it takes for the local drag coefficient to reach a constant value.

Abstract:
Due to the fact that there may be trade-offs among ride comfort, suspension deflection and tire deformation for the active suspension system, and considering the robustness of control system with parameter uncertainties and external disturbances, an active suspension controller based on nonlinear filtering method and the sliding mode variable structure control method was designed in order to comprehensively improve the suspension system performance.

Subsequently, simulation schemes including random road excitation, sinusoidal road excitation and bump road excitation are carried out to validate the effectiveness of the entire control system. The results of the simulations show that, the proposed control system has good road adaptability, and can effectively improve ride comfort and road holding performance without sacrificing suspension deflection. Therefore, the proposed control system is beneficial to improve the ride quality and handling stability of vehicle.

Abstract:
In order to overcome the complex process, poor regularity, difficulty in implementation in any time and any place to calculate the load spectrum of a conventional scraper conveyor, we establish a new mathematical model for calculating the load spectrum of a scraper conveyor with the help of computer numerical method. The model uses a one-dimensional array to simulate the scraper conveyor through numerically simulating the changes of each element in the array that correspond to the changes in the load of the scraper conveyor with the coal mining machine position change. The MATLAB software is used to develop the software platform of the scraper conveyor's load spectrum simulation system to avoid the tedious data input process. Through computer simulation, this paper compares the method with the conventional method, and the simulation results verify its feasibility and advantage. This method can greatly simplify the calculation process of the load spectrum of the scraper conveyor and can obtain cargo distribution at any time and position of the scraper conveyor. The method provides the database for the running resistance of the dynamic characteristics of the scraper conveyor, the tension variation and the real time adjustment.

2017, 36(10): 1521-1529. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2017.1007
Abstract:
For mobile robot path planning based on traditional artificial potential field, the avoidance to movable obstacle is inefficient and there are local minima in the generated path. To solve this problem, an improved potential field model based on potential flow theory is proposed. In the improved model, the corresponding relationship between potential flow theory and path planning is introduced. Conflicts, for instance that velocity is infinite in the position of sink, are resolved by modified function. To satisfy the reliability of avoiding mobile obstacle, Zhukovsky transformation is used to optimize the configuration and function of potential model. A further investigation of vortex is applied to prevent the local minima. After that, the concept of virtual source is introduced for path planner to generate an optimized trajectory. In the end, the issue of multi-obstacle potential superposition is discussed. To verify the algorithm, comparisons between improved method and traditional one by various circumstances in simulation are conducted. The simulation results indicate that in the improved method, potential field is able to lead robot to avoid mobile obstacles according to velocity vectors of obstacles. Besides, the method is more efficient when preventing local minima.

Abstract:
The three-dimensional elliptical vibration assisted cutting (EVAC) device is a very potential manufacturing method with wide application prospect. The ability to obtain the best performance of the 3D EVAC is up to the performance of a 3D EVAC apparatus. The current 3D EVAC apparatus is limited by the output of a single elliptical trajectory and the narrow adjusting performance of the elliptical trajectory and so on. In order to improve the output performance of the 3D EVAC apparatus, this paper focuses on the generation of multiple elliptical vibration trajectories in the 3D EVAC apparatus and explores the method for optimizing the performances of the designed device such as layout and size.

Secondly, the finite element method is used for static checking and transient dynamic analysis of the designed apparatus and verifies the trace output of the tool nose. Finally, according to the finite element analysis results, we analyze and optimize the size and layout parameters of the designed device by establishing the flexible hinge optimization model of the 3D EVAC, thus its optimal parameters are obtained.

2017, 36(10): 1570-1574. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2017.1014
Abstract:
The directivity is an important parameter for measuring the performance of the sound source. In order to study the relationship between directivity and the number of steps of stepped plate, four plates with one to four steps of the same frequency and base thickness are designed in this paper. The directivity of four stepped plates and the piston plates which have the same frequency and thickness with those four stepped plates are calculated. The result shows that, the stepped plates have the same main lobe as the piston plates, but the side lobes of the former are more than those of the later. For the given frequency and base thickness, with the increasing of the number of the steps (it means the plate with greater radius), the directivity is sharper; the experiment of fabricated stepped plates shows that the experimental results are in good agreement with the calculated ones.

Wang Jiangping, Duan Tengfei
2017, 36(10): 1582-1588. doi: 10.13433/j.cnki.1003-8728.2017.1016
Abstract:
The number of neighbors in traditional manifold learning is fixed, but it is unbefitting in fault detection. In order to solve this problem, a new fault detection method using sparse manifold clustering and embedding (SMCE) is presented in this paper. SMCE extracts the low dimension manifold structure from observation space with high dimension and nonlinearity by solving sparse optimization problem and finding neighbors automatically. The parameter selection of neighbors is converted to select penalty coefficient of sparse optimization problem. By means of SMCE, the vibration feature of bearing and gear is extracted and supervised and unsupervised fault detection is achieved. The experiment illustrates that this method is better to extract the internal structure of fault signal and to detect mechanical fault. The detection accuracy with spectral clustering and SVM is higher than 98%.
