The work is a continuation of studies of the dynamic characteristics of thermoelectric coolers aimed at analyzing the influence of temperature differences, current operating modes, design parameters of the device and physical parameters of the material of thermoelements for a time constant. The article analyzes the effect of the heat sink capacity of the radiator on the dynamic characteristics, energy and reliability indicators of a single-stage thermoelectric cooler. A dynamic model of a thermoelectric cooler has been developed taking into account the weight and size parameters of the radiator, which relate the main energy indicators of the cooler with the heat removal capacity of the radiator, operating currents, the value of the heat load and the relative temperature difference. The analysis of the dynamic model shows that with an increase in the heat-removing capacity of the radiator at a given thermal load and various current modes, the main parameters of the cooler change. The required number of thermoelements, power consumption, time to reach a stationary mode, and relative failure rate are reduced. With an increase in the relative operating current, the time to reach the stationary mode of operation decreases for different values of the heat sink capacity of the radiator. It is shown that the minimum time to reach the stationary operating mode is provided in the maximum refrigerating capacity mode. The studies were carried out at different values of the heat sink capacity of the radiator in the operating range of temperature drops and the geometry of thermoelements. The possibility of minimizing the heat-dissipating surface of the radiator at various current operating modes and the relationship with the main parameters, reliability indicators and the time to reach the stationary operating mode are shown. Comparative analysis of weight and size characteristics, main parameters, reliability indicators and dynamics of functioning with rational design makes it possible to choose compromise solutions, taking into account the weight of each of the limiting factors.

This paper reports a comparative analysis of the thermal regime control means while minimizing a set of basic parameters in various combinations with the indicators of reliability and dynamics of the functioning of a single-stage thermoelectric cooler. The connection has been established between the optimal relative operating current corresponding to the minimum of the set on the relative temperature difference and heat sink capacity of the radiator. The results of calculating the main parameters, reliability indicators, time of entering the stationary mode of operation for various current modes of operation at a fixed temperature difference, thermal load at different geometry of the branches of thermoelements are given. A comparative analysis of the main parameters, indicators of the reliability and operational dynamics of a single-stage cooler under various characteristic current modes of operation has been carried out. Minimizing the set of basic parameters in conjunction with the reliability indicators and operational dynamics of the cooling thermoelement provides a decrease in the refrigeration coefficient up to 40 % compared to the maximum cooling capacity mode, as well as the optimal heat sink capacity of the radiator, the amount of energy expended, the time of entering the stationary mode, the relative intensity of failures. The analysis of the influence of the temperature difference at a predefined thermal load on the relative operating current, the time it takes for the cooler to enter the stationary thermal regime, the heat sink capacity of the radiator, the relative intensity of failures has been performed. The devised method of optimal control over the thermal regime of a single-stage thermoelectric cooler based on minimizing the set of basic parameters makes it possible to search for and select compromise solutions, taking into consideration the weight of each of the limiting factors

The influence of the efficiency of the initial thermoelectric materials on the dynamics of the functioning of the thermoelectric cooling device for various characteristic current modes of operation in the range of operating temperature drops and heat load at a given geometry of thermoelement legs is considered. The parameters of thermoelectric materials of thermoelements are conventionally divided into three groups: used for batch production, laboratory research and maximum values. The criterion for choosing the operating mode of the thermoelectric cooler takes into account the mutual influence and weight of each of the limiting factors. Since the design conditions can be very diverse, simultaneously varying several limiting factors (constructive, energy and reliability), you can choose the most rational mode of operation. The analysis was carried out for typical current modes of operation of thermoelectric coolers: maximum cooling capacity, maximum cooling capacity at a given current, maximum coefficient of performance, minimum failure rate. It is shown that with an increase in the efficiency of the initial thermoelectric materials, the time for reaching the stationary operating mode of the thermoelectric cooler, the required number of thermoelements, and the maximum temperature difference increase. A method is proposed for reducing the time constant of thermoelectric coolers due to the revealed relationship between the efficiency of thermoelectric materials and the dynamic characteristics of thermoelements. It is shown that an increase in the dynamic characteristics of thermoelectric coolers is achieved without changing the design documentation, manufacturing technology and additional climatic and mechanical testing of products.

Abstract Aiming at the current development of drilling technology and the deepening of oil and gas exploration, we focus on better studying the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the drill string under complex working conditions and knowing the real movement of the drill string during drilling. This paper firstly combines the actual situation of the well to establish the dynamic model of the horizontal drill string, and analyzes the dynamic characteristics, giving the expression of the force of each part of the model. Secondly, it introduces the piecewise constant method (simply known as PT method), and gives the solution equation. Then according to the basic parameters, the axial vibration displacement and vibration velocity at the test points are solved by the PT method and the Runge–Kutta method, respectively, and the phase diagram, the Poincare map, and the spectrogram are obtained. The results obtained by the two methods are compared and analyzed. Finally, the relevant experimental tests are carried out. It shows that the results of the dynamic model of the horizontal drill string are basically consistent with the results obtained by the actual test, which verifies the validity of the dynamic model and the correctness of the calculated results. When solving the drill string nonlinear dynamics, the results of the PT method is closer to the theoretical solution than that of the Runge–Kutta method with the same order and time step. And the PT method is better than the Runge–Kutta method with the same order in smoothness and continuity in solving the drill string nonlinear dynamics.

Изложена методика расчета показателей безотказности электроснабжения (вероятности безотказного электроснабжения и средней наработки до отказа) ответственных приемников морского судна, подключаемых к аварийному электрораспределительному щиту. Методика реализована применительно к судовой электроэнергетической системе с тремя источниками электроэнергии – двумя основными дизель-генераторными агрегатами, подключенными к главному электрораспределительному щиту, и одним аварийным дизель-генераторным агрегатом, подключенным к аварийному электрораспределительному щиту. Рассмотрены различные режимы работы судовой электроэнергетической системы: при работе до первого отказа одного основного дизель-генератора, при параллельной работе двух основных дизель-генераторов, при работе одного аварийного дизель-генератора; а также после обесточивания с учетом возможности последующего включения резервного или (и) аварийного дизель генератора. Методика, с соответствующими корректировками, может быть использована для расчета показателей безотказного электроснабжения в судовых электроэнергетических системах другой комплектации. Расчет показателей безотказности электроснабжения необходим при проектировании для обеспечения требуемого уровня надежности электроснабжения судовых приемников электроэнергии, а при эксплуатации – для предупреждения отказов и планирования технического обслуживания и ремонта элементов судовых электроэнергетических систем. The methodology for calculating the indicators of the reliability of power supply (the probability of failure-free power supply and the mean time to failure) of critical receivers of a sea vessel connected to the emergency electrical switchboard is presented. The technique is implemented in relation to a ship power system with three sources of electricity - two main diesel generator sets connected to the main electrical switchboard, and one emergency diesel generator set connected to an emergency electrical switchboard. Various operating modes of the ship's electric power system are considered: during operation until the first failure of one main diesel generator, during parallel operation of two main diesel generators, during operation of one emergency diesel generator; as well as after de-energizing, taking into account the possibility of subsequent switching on of the backup and / or emergency diesel generator. The technique, with appropriate adjustments, can be used to calculate indicators of reliable power supply in ship power systems of a different configuration. Calculation of power supply reliability indicators is necessary during design to ensure the required level of power supply reliability for ship power receivers, and during operation - to prevent failures and plan maintenance and repair of elements of ship power systems.

The maritime industry is in a mindset to save fuel and reduce emissions. How one achieves this end, however, can be a matter of some debate. While substantial industry effort is being placed on things that can be optimized, to achieve real benefit and financial return one must first understand the details about how the vessel consumes propulsive energy during its mission. This paper discusses a rational, simple, and effective systems engineering approach to identify power and fuel demands via computational propulsion analysis of the individual operating modes of a vessel’s duty cycle. It explains sensible consumption metrics that can be used to evaluate and compare different physical systems, strategic plans, or helm decisions. A duty cycle operating mode analysis calculation for a tugboat in multi-role service (as a harbor tug and in long haul ocean barge towing) is demonstrated using COTS software, including examples of design-side and shipboard decision options and consequences.

Annular Seals

Annular seals of turbomachinery usually suffer from various degrees of eccentricities and disturbances due to the rotor–stator misalignment and radial loads, while the discussion of annular seal under both large static eccentricities and dynamic disturbances is relatively limited. In this paper, the applicability of linear assumption and reliability of nonlinear dynamic model for eccentric annular seals under large eccentricities and disturbances is discussed based on the investigation of seals with various rotor motions through computational fluid dynamics (CFD). After the validation of transient CFD methods by comparison with experimental and bulk theory results, the dynamic behaviors of annular seal are analyzed by adopting both direct transient simulations and the nonlinear Muszynska model. The results show that the nonlinear dynamic model based on rotor circular whirls around seal center can predict the fluid excitations of different types of rotor motions well under small static eccentricities, while it is limited severely with large static eccentricities, which indicates that the dynamic characteristics of annular seal under large eccentricities are related with the rotor’s motion ways. The paper provides a reference for studies of rotor–seal system with complex rotor motions considering radial loads or running across the resonance region.
