Recently, a new type of low-loss variable inlet guide vane (VIGV) was proposed for improving a compressor’s performance under off-design conditions. To provide more information for applications, this work investigated the effect of the Reynolds number and clearance flow on the aerodynamic characteristics of this new type of VIGV. The performance and flow field of two representative airfoils with different chord Reynolds numbers were studied with the widely used commercial software ANSYS CFX after validation was completed. Calculations indicate that, with the decrease in the Reynolds number Rec, the airfoil loss coefficient ω and deviation δ first increase slightly and then entered a high growth rate in a low range of Rec. Afterwards, a detailed boundary-layer analysis was conducted to reveal the flow mechanism for the airfoil performance degradation with a low Reynolds number. For the design point, it is the appearance and extension of the separation region on the rear portion; for the maximum incidence point, it is the increase in the length and height of the separation region on the former portion. The three-dimensional VIGV research confirms the Reynolds number effect on airfoils. Furthermore, the clearance leakage flow forms a strong stream-wise vortex by injection into the mainflow, resulting in a high total-pressure loss and under-turning in the endwall region, which shows the potential benefits of seal treatment.

А method of geometric calculation of a new type of planetary rotary hydraulic machines (PRGM) with satellite stands is developed. The method includes the steps of: 1) calculation of the initial round-link mechanism; 2) calculation of non-round links of the PRGM with outstretches; 3) construction and integration of three-dimensional design system COMPAS-3D fragments of crenellated crowns corresponding to the phases of abutments and lifting-lowering satellites; 4) correction of the toothed contours to eliminate the phenomenon of mismatch of satellite centers with the points of intersection of the trajectories of these centers in their movement relative to the rotor and stator. PRGM with satellite stands are designed to operate as vacuum pumps, compressors and pneumatic motors.

We consider the nonlinear spatial evolution in the streamwise direction of slightly three-dimensional disturbances in the form of oblique travelling waves (with spanwise wavenumber kz much less than the streamwise one kx) in a mixing layer vx = u(y) at large Reynolds numbers. A study is made of the transition (with the growth of amplitude) to the regime of a nonlinear critical layer (CL) from regimes of a viscous CL and an unsteady CL, which we have investigated earlier (Churilov & Shukhman 1994). We have found a new type of transition to the nonlinear CL regime that has no analogy in the two-dimensional case, namely the transition from a stage of ‘explosive’ development. A nonlinear evolution equation is obtained which describes the development of disturbances in a regime of a quasi-steady nonlinear CL. We show that unlike the two-dimensional case there are two stages of disturbance growth after transition. In the first stage (immediately after transition) the amplitude A increases as x. Later, at the second stage, the ‘classical’ law A ∼ x2/3 is reached, which is usual for two-dimensional disturbances. It is demonstrated that with the growth of kz the region of three-dimensional behaviour is expanded, in particular the amplitude threshold of transition to the nonlinear CL regime from a stage of ‘explosive’ development rises and therefore in the ‘strongly three-dimensional’ limit kz = O(kx) such a transition cannot be realized in the framework of weakly nonlinear theory.

To overcome the shortcomings of traditional rigid road wheel, such as poor damping effect and low load-bearing efficiency, a new type of flexible road wheel, having a unique suspension-bearing mode, was introduced. The three-dimensional nonlinear finite element model of rigid and flexible road wheel, considering the triple nonlinear characteristics of geometry, material and contact, is established for numerical investigation of static loading performance. The accuracy of the finite element model of the rigid and flexible road wheel is verified by static loading experiment. The static loading performance of the rigid and flexible road wheels is numerically analyzed. The influence of vertical load on maximum stress and deformation of the rigid and flexible wheels is also studied. The results show that the contact pressure uniformity of the flexible road wheel is better than that of the rigid road wheel under the static vertical load, but the maximum stress and deformation of the flexible road wheel are greater than that of the rigid road wheel. However, this problem can be solved by increasing the number of hinge sets and optimising the joints. The research results provide theoretical basis for replacing rigid road wheel with flexible road wheel, and also provide reference for structural optimisation of flexible road wheel.

ABSTRACTIn this report, the newly developed three-dimensional magneto-optical (MO) recording scheme and the experimental results are reported. A part of this work has been done as the national project of 3D-MO (3-dimensional MO) project. It started at September 1998 and ended March 2002 as a part of the national project “Nanometer-Scale Optical High Density Disk Storage System” and aimed at achieving 100 Gb/in2 in storage density. Three-dimensional MO recording is one of the prosperous candidates of next generation ultra high density recording. Magnetic amplifying MO system (MAMMOS) is employed for achieving the novel three-dimensional MO recording. Double-MAMMOS scheme consists of 2-recording layers of differing compensation temperature (Tcomp ) and one readout layer was proposed and discussed.With write/read test it is succeeded to show the results corresponding to a 100 Gb/in2 (50 Gb/in2 × 2) recording density. We also proposed and showed results of simulations of a new type of Double-MAMMOS in which the recording layers can hold quadri-valued information by single writing process.

In order to understand diffraction from a three-dimensional crystal, a new type of lattice, constructed from the real lattice used so far, is defined. It is the reciprocal lattice proposed by Paul Ewald around 1911. ‘Diffraction’ considers how this lattice is constructed and investigates its uses in understanding diffraction. Reflection intensities and amplitudes are also explained along with Friedel’s Law; the convolution theorem; Fourier Transformation; powder diffraction, which has many uses in industry and in academic research; incommensurate or modulated crystals; and quasicrystals, often seen in metal alloys, which cannot be explained by conventional crystal symmetry ideas. Finally, disorder in crystals is discussed.
