Large Scale Model

Cable-driven parallel robot is a special kind of robot, which is actuated by cables. It is already applied in the low speed wind tunnel to get aerodynamic measurement of aircraft model, and the aircraft pose could be adjusted by changing the cable length. Whether it can be used in hypersonic wind tunnel still needs further discussion. This paper presents the dynamics and aerodynamics analysis of a large-scale model supported by 6-DOF cable-driven parallel robot to investigate the feasibility of this special kind of suspension system in hypersonic wind tunnel. The description of this setup with a X-51A-like model is given, and then based on the system dynamic equations, aerodynamic force and stiffness matrix are derived. In the simulation, properties of dynamics and aerodynamics are mainly concerned. A typical shock tunnel with flow duration of about 100 milliseconds is taken as an example, and results show that the system is stable enough to meet the fundamental static wind tunnel test. From the cable tension variation under impact load and the sensitivity analysis, it is likely accessible to derive the aerodynamic forces. Compared with the sting suspension method, cable-driven parallel robot has the priority of higher inherent frequency and more flexible degrees. The interference to the flow field induced by cables is also preliminarily proved to be small by the CFD simulation, which can be acceptable and corrected. Researches conducted show the feasibility of cable-driven parallel robot’s application in hypersonic wind tunnel.

Pyrolysis Of Biomass

Biomass such as agriculture waste and urban waste are enormous potency as energy resources instead of enviromental problem. organic waste can be converted into energy in the form of liquid fuel, solid, and syngas by using of pyrolysis technique. Pyrolysis process can yield higher liquid form when the process can be drifted into fast and flash response. It can be solved by using microwave heating method. This research is started from developing an experimentation laboratory apparatus of microwave-assisted pyrolysis of biomass energy conversion system, and conducting preliminary experiments for gaining the proof that this method can be established for driving the process properly and safely. Modifying commercial oven into laboratory apparatus has been done, it works safely, and initial experiments have been carried out, process yields bio-oil and charcoal shortly, several parameters are achieved. Some further experiments are still needed for more detail parameters. Theresults may be used to design small-scale continuous model of productionsystem, which then can be developed into large-scale model that applicable for comercial use.

An experimental investigation was conducted to examine the effect of a periodic variation in the angle of attack on heat transfer at the leading edge of a gas turbine blade. A circular cylinder was used as a large-scale model of the leading edge region. The cylinder was placed in a wind tunnel and was oscillated rotationally about its axis. The incident flow Reynolds number and the Strouhal number of oscillation were chosen to model an actual turbine condition. Incident turbulence levels up to 4.9 percent were produced by grids placed upstream of the cylinder. The transfer rate was measured using a mass transfer technique and heat transfer rates inferred from the results. A direct comparison of the unsteady and steady results indicate that the effect is dependent on the Strouhal number, turbulence level, and the turbulence length scale, but that the largest observed effect was only a 10 percent augmentation at the nominal stagnation position.

The water in a swimming pool on the top deck of a large passenger ship can be excited to a resonant motion, even in a moderate sea state. The motion of the water in the pool is mainly caused by longitudinal acceleration, resulting from the ship's pitch and surge motions. At resonance, there can be high waves in the pool and splashing of water. In this study the behavior of the Solarium Pool of the Freedom of the Seas was examined in various sea states and operating conditions. The motions of the pool were calculated on the basis of a linear seakeeping method, and the behavior of the water in the pool was studied with experimental model tests. A large-scale model of the pool was constructed and fitted to a purpose-built test bench that could be axially moved by a computer-controlled hydraulic cylinder. Water elevation in the pool was measured, and all tests were video recorded. Different modifications of the pool were tested to improve the behavior of the pool. A strong correlation between the longitudinal motion and the behavior of the water in the pool was found.
