Abstract With the progressive improvement of the level of mechanization of agricultural production, the high-gap rod sprayer has gradually become an important component of agricultural production equipment. The stability of spray rod has an important influence on the life and operation quality of spray rod. Therefore, considering the stability of the spray rod of high gap sprayer, a fluid-solid coupling vibration simulation model of the spray rod of high gap sprayer is established in this paper. The influence of inlet velocity, inlet pressure, fluid density and fluid viscosity on the flow rate and dynamic pressure in the pipe was analyzed by fluent. The results show that the exit velocity increases with the increase of the inlet velocity, but when the velocity reaches a certain value, backflow occurs. With the increase of inlet pressure, the dynamic pressure increases, and the local energy loss and the energy loss along the path also increase. The velocity and dynamic pressure decrease with increasing density.

Problems of providing the population and agricultural production by qualitative potable and process water in the Central Yakutia are covered. This territory belongs to the region with acute shortage of water resources which is always a limiting factor of development of agricultural production. For the solution of this burning issue in the 80th years of the last century along the small rivers the systems of hydraulic engineering constructions providing requirements with process water practically of all settlements of the Central Yakutia were constructed. At a construction of all hydraulic engineering buildings the method of construction with preservation of soils of the basis of constructions in a frozen state was applied. When warming the climate which is observed in recent years hydraulic engineering constructions built in regions of a wide spread occurance of breeds of an ice complex and with the considerable volume of water weight, were especially vulnerable. On character and a design they experience continuous threat of damage and demand very attentive relation from the operating organizations. Taking this into account, safe operation of hydraulic engineering constructions in a zone of distribution of permafrost breeds demands new approaches. The article examines features of hydraulic engineering constructions’ operation of agricultural water supply objects in the Central Yakutia. Distinctiveness of hydraulic engineering constructions’ operation is that stability of constructions is intimately bound to temperature impact of a reservoir on ground dams’ body and the basis of constructions. The possibility of inclusion of ways for an intensification of a freezing of constructions in the structure of operational actions is studied. The new method on safe operation of hydraulic engineering constructions as prewinter abatement of the water level in a reservoir accounting volumes and norms of water consumption of the settlement is offered.

The flow of a viscous model fluid in a flat channel with a non-uniform temperature field is considered. The problem of the stability of a thermoviscous fluid is solved on the basis of the derived generalized Orr-Sommerfeld equation by the spectral decomposition method in Chebyshev polynomials. The effect of taking into account the linear and exponential dependences of the fluid viscosity on temperature on the spectral characteristics of the hydrodynamic stability equation for an incompressible fluid in a flat channel with given different wall temperatures is investigated. Analytically obtained profiles of the flow rate of a thermovisible fluid. The spectral pictures of the eigenvalues of the generalized Orr-Sommerfeld equation are constructed. It is shown that the structure of the spectra largely depends on the properties of the liquid, which are determined by the viscosity functional dependence index. It has been established that for small values of the thermoviscosity parameter the spectrum compares the spectrum for isothermal fluid flow, however, as it increases, the number of eigenvalues and their density increase, that is, there are more points at which the problem has a nontrivial solution. The stability of the flow of a thermoviscous fluid depends on the presence of an eigenvalue with a positive imaginary part among the entire set of eigenvalues found with fixed Reynolds number and wavenumber parameters. It is shown that with a fixed Reynolds number and a wave number with an increase in the thermoviscosity parameter, the flow becomes unstable. The spectral characteristics determine the structure of the eigenfunctions and the critical parameters of the flow of a thermally viscous fluid. The eigenfunctions constructed in the subsequent works show the behavior of transverse-velocity perturbations, their possible growth or decay over time.

The stability considerations of centrifugal compressors become increasingly severe with the high pressure ratios, especially in aero-engines. Diffuser is the major subcomponent of centrifugal compressor, and its performance greatly influences the stability of compressor. This paper experimentally investigates the roles of vanes in diffuser on component instability and compression system instability. High pressure ratio centrifugal compressors with and without vanes in diffuser are tested and analyzed. Rig tests are carried out to obtain the compressor performance map. Dynamic pressure measurements and relevant Fourier analysis are performed to identify complex instability phenomena in the time domain and frequency domain, including rotating instability, stall, and surge. For component instability, vanes in diffuser are capable of suppressing the emergence of rotating stall in the diffuser at full speeds, but barely affect the characteristics of rotating instability in the impeller at low and middle speeds. For compression system instability, it is shown that the use of vanes in diffuser can effectively postpone the occurrence of compression system surge at full speeds. According to the experimental results and the one-dimensional flow theory, vanes in diffuser turn the diffuser pressure rise slope more negative and thus improve the stability of compressor stage, which means lower surge mass flow rate.

Zhang et al (2006) utilized CFD to examine the validity of erosion models that have been implemented into CFD codes to predict solid particle erosion in air and water for Inconel 625. This work is an extension of Zhang’s work and is presented as a step toward obtaining a better understanding of the effects of fluid viscosity and sand particle size on measured and calculated erosion rates. The erosion rates of Aluminum 6061-T6 were measured for direct impingement conditions of a submerged jet. Fluid viscosities of 1, 10, 25, and 50 cP and sand particle sizes of 20, 150, and 300 μm were tested. The average fluid speed of the jet was maintained at 10 m/s. Erosion data show that erosion rates for the 20 and 150 μm particles are reduced as the viscosity is increased, while surprisingly the erosion rates for the 300 μm particles do not seem to change much for the higher viscosities. For all viscosities considered, larger particles produced higher erosion rates, for the same mass of sand, than smaller particles. Concurrently, an erosion equation has been generated based on erosion testing of the same material in air. The new erosion model has been compared to available models and has been implemented into a commercially available CFD code to predict erosion rates for a variety of flow conditions, flow geometries, and particle sizes. Since particle speed and impact angle greatly influence erosion rates of the material, calculated particle speeds were compared with measurements. Comparisons reveal that, as the particles penetrate the near wall shear layer, particles in the higher viscosity liquids tend to slow down more rapidly than particles in the lower viscosity liquids. In addition, CFD predictions and particle speed measurements are used to explain why the erosion data for larger particles is less sensitive to the increased viscosities.

According to the gas film force variation law, when the bearing axis is slightly displaced from the static equilibrium position, displacement and velocity disturbance relation expressions for the gas film force increment are constructed. Moreover, combined with the bearing rotor system motion equation, calculation model equations for the gas film stiffness and damping coefficients are established. The axial and radial vibration and velocity of the gas bearings during operation are collected. The instantaneous stiffness and damping coefficients of the gas film are calculated by the rolling iteration algorithm using MATLAB. The dynamic changes in the gas film stiffness and damping under different motion states are analyzed, and the mechanism of the gas film vortex and oscillation is studied. The results demonstrate the following: (1) When the gas bearing is running in the linear steady state in cycle 1, the dynamic pressure effect is enhanced and the stability is improved by increasing the eccentricity; when the gas supply pressure is increased, the static pressure effect is enhanced and the gas film vortex is reduced, but the oscillation is strengthened. (2) With the increase in rotational speed, the gas film vortex force gradually exceeds the gas film damping force, and the stability gradually worsens, causing a fluctuation in the gas film stiffness and damping, following which singularity occurs and a half-speed vortex is formed. Meanwhile, the gas film oscillation is intensified, and the rotor enters the nonlinear stable cycle 2 state operation. (3) As the fluctuation of the film force increases, the instantaneous stiffness and damping oscillation of the film intensifies, most of the stiffness and damping coefficients exhibit distortion, and the rotor operation will enter a chaotic or unstable state. Therefore, the gas bearing stiffness and damping variation characteristics can be used to study and predict the gas bearing operating state. Finally, measures for reducing the vortex and oscillation of the gas film and improving the stability of the gas bearing operation are proposed.

To study the appropriate numerical simulation methods for venturi injectors, including the investigation of the hydraulic performance, mixing process, and the flowing law of the two internal fluids, simulations and experiments were conducted in this study. In the simulations part, the cavitation model based on the standard k–ε turbulence and mixture models was added, after convergence of the calculations. The results revealed that the cavitation model has good agreement with the experiment. However, huge deviations occurred between the experimental results and the ones from the calculation when not considering the cavitation model after cavitation. Thus, it is inferred that the cavitation model can exactly predict the hydraulic performance of a venturi injector. In addition, the cavitation is a crucial factor affecting the hydraulic performance of a venturi injector. The cavitation can ensure the stability of the fertilizer absorption of the venturi injector and can realize the precise control of fertilization by the venturi injector, although it affects the flow stability and causes energy loss. Moreover, this study found that the mixing chamber and throat are the main areas of energy loss. Furthermore, we observed that the internal flow of the venturi injector results in the majority of mixing taking place at the diffusion and outlet sections.

The effect of in-plane stresses on the stability behaviors of constant stiffness and variable stiffness composite panels, exposed to aerodynamic pressure, is studied using the finite element method. The dynamic pressure from the high velocity airflow is evaluated from the first-order piston theory, and the eigenvalue analysis is performed to investigate the flutter or divergence type of instabilities in such composite panels under combined mechanical and aerodynamic loads. Attempt is made to understand the effect of the lamination parameter on the stability characteristics of edge-supported and cantilever composite trapezoidal panels. Finally, the limit cycle oscillation of variable stiffness plates subjected to aerodynamic pressure is investigated.
