The flow field inside cyclone separator is a kind of complex three-dimensional rotation turbulent flow with two-phase separation phenomenon. In order to optimize the structure and shorten the cycle of research and development, it is very essential to find the appropriate calculation method for the flow field inside cyclone separator. In this article, the internal flow field of tangential inlet cyclone separator was simulated and calculated by adopting different calculation model and different numerical simulation scheme by orthogonal design method. And the result was compared with that of existing experiment to find a reasonable method for the simulation of the flow field inside the cyclone. On the basis of standard k-ε model, the numerical simulation scheme was formulated by the orthogonal test method, through the comparison of results, the best combinations are gained; This research result has certain reference value for cyclone separator design and performance optimization.

Flow field inside tangential cyclone separator is a kind of complex three-dimensional rotation turbulent flow. To optimize the flow field structure and shorten the cycle of research and development, it is essential to find an appropriate calculation method to predict the flow field inside cyclone separators. In the article, FLUENT software is employed to obtain the internal flow field of tangential inlet cyclone separator by adopting different calculation models and different numerical simulation scheme. Also the simulation result was compared with that of existing experiment data to find a reasonable solution for the simulation of the flow field characteristics inside the cyclone. After the examination to the rationality of the different numerical simulation method, and the comparative analysis in the main flow field parameters of the simulated results which is the most reasonable combination, the flow characteristics of internal flow field of tangential inlet cyclone separator was obtained. The results show that: when the grid number of calculation domain reach 860000, it can cater to the calculation conditions of flow field, and the simulation results can agree with the experimental data better and will hardly change with the grid number; On the basis of standard k-ε model, the numerical simulation scheme was formulated by the orthogonal experiment method, through the comparison of results, the best combinations are 2 and 11; Applying the optimized combination to RNG k-ε model, Realizable k-ε model and RSM model and comparing simulation results with the existing one show that RSM was the ideal model used in simulation; With the change of the flow rate came a resistance characteristic curve of cyclone separator. The comparison between it and the predicted results of existing empirical formula of resistance characteristic drew the numerical simulation result, which is closest to Dirgo empirical formula; the first and second order upwind form have certain influence on the numerical simulation results, but the second one is more accurate in terms of simulating and predicting the parameters distribution inside flow field. This research result has certain reference value for cyclone separator design and performance optimization.

AbstractArtificial reefs have been deposited along the coastline of China for over 30 years. The purpose of artificial reef construction is to form a changeable and complicated flow field that can promote the water exchange of different layers and attract more fish and marine organisms, and the structure of artificial reefs plays a decisive role in these processes. However, the research on the hydrodynamic character of artificial reefs has primarily focused on improving their size or shape. The guide plate has a significant effect on the flow field effect of the cubic reef, which has been confirmed in previous studies. In this article, guide plates were extended to the interior of the cubic reef and finally form an inner structure consisting of four isosceles triangles and right triangles. The flow field effect of the inner structure is numerically simulated by the orthogonal design method. Results indicate that the inner structure creates a significant disturbance on the flow field. A crossed design of hole diameters on plates contributes to the formation of upwelling and extension of the wake region. The flux of upwelling in the different planes indicates that the flow of upwelling is strong above the upwelling reef and has a remarkable effect. This study provides a scientific reference for the structural design of artificial reefs.

By orthogonal design method, Catalytic activity of /ZrO2 solid superacid is studied, and the influence of catalyst characteristic and structure by manufacturing equipment is issued. It is concluded that the best prepared conditions of the superacid catalyst /ZrO2 for the synthesis of Octyl-Polyglycoside are followed:(1) PH=9.5; (2) calcined temperature at 500; (3) M(H2SO4)=0.5mol/L. Using this kind of catalyst the conversion of glueoside may reach as high as 96% in the synthesis of OCtyl-Polyglycoside and the selectivity is very high for the synthesis of Octyl-Polyglycoside. By introducing other metal oxide, the catalytic activity of complex solid superacid is studied.

On the base of numerical simulation and theoretical analysis, the flow field of a conventional single-tangential-inlet Hydrocyclone and a newly put forward axial-symmetry double-tangential-inlet hydrocyclone were contrasted. The study shows that the inlet structure of the Hydrocylone has a great influence on the radial velocity of the flow field in the hydrocyclone and that the radial velocity in the hydrocyclone with single-tangential-inlet is not symmetry about the axis of the hydrocyclone; and on the other hand the radial velocity in the hydrocyclone with axial-symmetry double-tangential-inlet is symmetry about the axis of the hydrocyclone. The magnitude of the radial velocity of the flow in the hydrocyclone with single-tangential-inlet is greater than that in the hydrocyclone with axial-symmetry double-tangential-inlet hydrocyclone, which means the hydrocyclone with axial-symmetry double-tangential-inlet has greater capability than the rival one with single-tangential inlet. The symmetry about the axis of the hydrocyclone of the radial velocity means the radial velocities in the place where the radio is the same are constant, which means the hydrocyclone has a great separation efficiency. The conclusion is that changing the conventional hydrocyclone into the one with axial-symmetry double-tangential-inlet structure can offer greater separation capability and efficiency.

Lime soil, literature [1] just gave a general rule to the mixture’s composition design. Because of the soil’s ingredient region difference, the reasonable mix of lime soil in special region must be determined by the test. This paper first quoted the formation of lime soil’s strength and the effect factor, and then regarded the non-side limitation compressive strength at different ages as inspection norm. Used orthogonal design method, the mix for the lime stabilized soil in Jilin area was investigated in this paper. The optimum mix and the main effect factor was determined by the strength at 28 days and verified by the regression strength at 90 days. In the meantime, the key problem had been summarized on the lime stabilized soil construction point and quality control.

Orthogonal design method (ODM) is widely used in real world application while it is not used for antenna design yet. It is employed to optimize roughly designed antenna in this paper. The geometrical factors of the antenna are relaxed within specific region and each factor is divided into some levels, and the performance of the antenna is constructed as objective. Then the ODM samples small number of antennas over the relaxed space and finds a prospective antenna. In an experiment of designing ST5 satellite miniantenna, we first get a roughly evolved antenna. The reason why we evolve roughly is because the evolving is time consuming even if numerical electromagnetics code 2 (NEC2) is employed (NEC2 source code is openly available and is fast in wire antenna simulation but not much feasible). Then the ODM method is employed to locally optimize the antenna with HFSS (HFSS is a commercial and feasible electromagnetics simulation software). The result shows the ODM optimizes successfully the roughly evolved antenna.
