Rod Seals

Reciprocating rod seals are widely used in the hydraulic actuator to prevent the leakage of fluid. The sealing lip profile changes with the seal wear, resulting in an increase in the leakage. A texturing rod changes the lubrication characteristics of the seal, so it affects the wear and leakage of the seal. A numerical simulation method is proposed to investigate the wear of the hydraulic reciprocating seal with textured rods. Several kinds of macro-cavity textures on the rod surface, including circle, square and triangle shapes, have been simulated and discussed. The effects of three shape parameters including area ratio, depth, and ratio of the axial length to the circumferential length on the seal wear are analyzed in detail. The texturing rod slightly increases the seal wear, but decreases the seal leakage. When the rod speed is increasing, the wear time rates of the seal increase, while the wear distance rates decrease, regardless of the texture shapes. When the texture area ratio is increasing, the wear of the reciprocating seal increases. Seal wear decreases with an increasing texture depth during the outstroke, however, it increases during the instroke. The ratio of the axial length of the macro-cavity to the circumferential length has no effect on the seal wear.

Selecting an optimal bow configuration is critical to the preliminary design of polar ships. This paper proposes an approach to determine the optimal bow of polar ships based on present numerical simulation and available published experimental studies. Unlike conventional methods, the present approach integrates both ice resistance and calm-water resistance with the navigating time. A numerical simulation method of an icebreaking vessel going straight ahead in level ice is developed using SPH (smoothed particle hydrodynamics) numerical technique of LS-DYNA. The present numerical results for the ice resistance in level ice are in satisfactory agreement with the available published experimental data. The bow configurations with superior icebreaking capability are obtained by analyzing the sensitivities due to the buttock angle γ, the frame angle β and the waterline angle α. The calm-water resistance is calculated using FVM (finite volume method). Finally, an overall resistance index devised from the ship resistance in ice/water weighted by their corresponding weighted navigation time is proposed. The present approach can be used for evaluating the integrated resistance performance of the polar ships operating in both a water route and ice route.

AbstractThis article analyzes the technical difficulties in full-section backfill mining and briefly introduces the technical principle and advantages of backfilling combined with caving fully mechanized mining (BCCFM). To reveal the strata behavior law of the BCCFM workface, this work establishes a three-dimensional numerical model and designs a simulation method by dynamically updating the modulus parameter of the filling body. By the analysis of numerical simulation, the following conclusions about strata behavior of the BCCFM workface were drawn. (1) The strata behavior of the BCCFM workface shows significant nonsymmetrical characteristics, and the pressure in the caving section is higher than that in the backfilling section. φ has the greatest influence on the backfilling section and the least influence on the caving section. C has a significant influence on the range of abutment pressure in the backfilling section. (2) There exits the transition area with strong mine pressure of the BCCFM workface. φ and C have significant effect on the degree of pressure concentration but little effect on the influence range of strong mine pressure in the transition area. (3) Under different conditions, the influence range of strong mine pressure is all less than 6 m. This article puts forward a control strategy of mine pressure in the transition area, which is appropriately improving the strength of the transition hydraulic support within the influence range (6 m) in the transition area according to the pressure concentration coefficient. The field measurement value of Ji15-31010 workface was consistent with numerical simulation, which verifies the reliability of control strategy of the BCCFM workface.

In view of the rotor icing problems, the influence of centrifugal force on rotor blade icing is investigated. A numerical simulation method of three-dimensional rotor blade icing is presented. Body-fitted grids around the rotor blade are generated using overlapping grid technology and rotor flow field characteristics are obtained by solving N-S equations. According to Eulerian two-phase flow, the droplet trajectories are calculated and droplet impingement characteristics are obtained. The mass and energy conservation equations of ice accretion model are established and a new calculation method of runback water mass based on shear stress and centrifugal force is proposed to simulate water flow and ice shape. The calculation results are compared with available experimental results in order to verify the correctness of the numerical simulation method. The influence of centrifugal force on rotor icing is calculated. The results show that the flow direction and distribution of liquid water on rotor surfaces change under the action of centrifugal force, which lead to the increasing of icing at the stagnation point and the decreasing of icing on both frozen limitations.

Based on the numerical simulation method, this paper has established the numerical simulation method by using of finite difference software of FLAC3D through establishing interface for digging pile-soil. It can consider mutual effect of digging pile-soil. The uplift bearing capacity of the digging pile in slope ground was calculated and the affecting factors of the bearing capacity were analyzed. The results show that the uplift bearing capacity has a negative correlation with the slope ratio, and has a positive correlation with the width or height of the foundation, which can be expressed as a quadratic polynomial. But when the slope ratio is smaller than a certain extent, the capacity no longer increases. Nonlinear regression analysis of calculation data are carried out. Finally, the calculation method of uplift bearing capacity about pile in the slope is developed, which can provide a reference to specification revision and engineering.
