Test and Calculation Model of Thermal Conductivity of Concrete

In order to study the influence of water content and hydration degree on the thermal conductivity of concrete, based on the steady-state plate method, the influence of water content, temperature, hydration degree and other factors on the thermal conductivity of early concrete was studied, and the calculation model of thermal conductivity of early concrete was established according to the test results and influence rules. The results show that there is a linear relationship between the thermal conductivity and water content at 28d, the higher the hydration degree is, the lower the thermal conductivity of concrete is; the difference between the measured value and the calculated model value is small, and the calculation formula can meet the requirements of engineering calculation.

Engineering Method for Calculating the Temperature on the Inner Surface of the Outer Corner of a Building

Постановка задачи. Температура на внутренней поверхности наружного угла всегда меньше, чем по глади наружной стены, что при низких температурах наружного воздуха может приводить к образованию конденсата на внутренней поверхности стены. В связи с этим актуальным является проблема разработки инженерного метода расчета температуры в наружном углу для исключения возможности конденсатообразования на внутренней поверхности угла на стадии проектирования стеновых конструкций. Результаты. Для решения этой задачи на основе решения уравнения теплового баланса, учета амплитуды колебания температуры воздуха в помещении и теплопоглощения внутренних поверхностей стен, междуэтажных перекрытий (поверхности потолка и пола), перегородок, окон получена формула для вычисления температуры на внутренней поверхности наружного угла. Также в ходе исследования проведены натурные испытания стеновой конструкции с наружным углом и получены значения температур на внутренней и наружной поверхностях. Выводы. Сопоставление результатов расчетов по разработанной методике и экспериментальных данных показало, что значения температур на внутренней поверхности наружного угла практически совпадают. Это дает основание использовать предложенный инженерный метод расчета температуры на внутренней поверхности угла наружной стены при проектировании ограждающих конструкций зданий для создания благоприятных комфортных и санитарно-гигиенических условий в помещении. Statement of the problem. The temperature on the inner surface of the outer corner is always lower than on the inner surface of the outer wall. This temperature difference might lead to the formation of condensation on the inner surface of the wall at low outdoor temperatures. Therefore the problem of developing an engineering method for calculating the temperature in the outer corner to exclude the possibility of condensation on the inner surface in the design process of the outer wall structures is extremely relevant. Results. To address this problem, based on solving the heat balance equation, taking into account the amplitude of air temperature fluctuations in the room and heat absorption of the inner surfaces of walls, intermediate bottoms (ceiling and floor surfaces), parting walls, a formula was obtained to calculate the temperature on the inner surface of the outer corner. Also, through the course of the study, natural tests of the wall structure with an outer corner were carried out and the temperatures on the inner and outer surfaces were obtained. Conclusions. Comparison of the calculation results using the developed engineering calculation method and experimental data showed that the temperatures on the inner surface of the outer corner almost coincided. This makes it possible to use the suggested engineering method for calculating the temperature on the inner surface of the outer wall corner in the design of enclosing structures to exclude condensation.

Оценка прочности стальной винтовой однолопастной сваи при действии осевых нагрузок

The purpose of this work is resolving the problem of evaluating the structural strength of the steel screw single-bladed pile under the pressure of axial loads in various soil conditions. Calculations in this area constitute the necessary condition for assessing the possibility and feasibility of using pile-screw technology in specific construction conditions, inter alia, at main pipeline facilities. The dependence of the pressure curve on the blade on the soil stiffness modulus was revealed in the course of numerical simulation performed by the finite element method in the ANSYS software. The maximum pressures are observed at the junction of the blade and the pile shaft with a large soil stiffness modulus, if the soil stiffness modulus is small, then the maximum pressures are observed at the edge of the blade. An analytical method for assessing the strength of a single-blade screw pile is proposed based on the theory of bending of circular and annular plates, as well as the results of numerical modeling. Comparison of the analytical method for calculating the strength of a screw pile with the results of numerical modeling to assess the accuracy. The comparison results showed an accuracy sufficient for engineering calculation methods. Цель настоящей работы – решение задачи оценки прочности конструкции стальной винтовой однолопастной сваи при воздействии осевых нагрузок в различных грунтовых условиях. Расчеты в этой области – необходимое условие для оценки возможности и целесообразности применения свайно-винтовой технологии в конкретных условиях строительства, в том числе на объектах магистральных трубопроводов. По результатам численного моделирования, выполненного методом конечных элементов в ПК ANSYS, выявлена зависимость изменения эпюры давления на лопасть винтовой сваи от модуля деформации грунта: с увеличением значения модуля деформации грунта максимальные давления наблюдаются в узле сопряжения лопасти и ствола сваи, при малых значениях модуля деформации максимальные давления отмечаются у края лопасти. На основании теории изгиба круглых и кольцевых пластин, а также результатов численного моделирования предложен расчетный метод оценки несущей способности однолопастной винтовой сваи по материалу. Для оценки точности разработанного подхода к расчету прочности винтовой сваи проведено сравнение предложенного аналитического метода с результатами численного моделирования, которое показало достаточную для инженерных методов расчета точность. Общий принцип, заложенный в рассмотренном методе расчета, может быть использован для создания различных эпюр давления на лопасть в зависимости от модуля деформации грунта и характеристик винтовой сваи.

Error analysis of the cutting machine step adjustable drive

The implementation precision of a number of adjustment bodies of a metal-cutting machine is also the most important indicator of its quality, a strictly standardized industry standard, technical conditions for manufacturing and acceptance. Moreover, the standard for limiting the error is set depending on the used denominator of the series. An essential feature of the precision of the series being implemented is that it is determined not by an error in parts’ manufacturing, but by the disadvantages of the used method of kinematic calculation. The established modes largely determine the efficiency of processing on metal-cutting machines. If the setting is set to an underestimated mode, then the performance is reduced accordingly. In the case of the mode overestimation, this leads to a decrease in durability and losses due to increased regrinding and tool changes. Creation of a complex of mathematical models for the design kinematic calculation of the metal-cutting machines’ main movement drive, which allows reducing the error in the implementation of a series of preferred numbers and increasing machining precision. The article provides a mathematical complex for analyzing the total error components, which allows determining and evaluating the total error of the drive of a metal-cutting machine by analyzing its constituent values with high precision: errors of a permanent part, errors of a multiplier part, rounding errors of standard numbers, errors in the electric motor and belt transmission. The presented complex helps to identify the role of the rounding error of preferred numbers in the total relative error formation and makes it possible to reduce it, which allows solving the problem of increasing the step adjustable drive precision. When using a mathematical complex, a fundamentally new opportunity for creating a scientific base appears, developing algorithms and programs for engineering calculation of tables that facilitate the selection of the numbers of teeth for multiple groups, structures and guaranteeing high precision of the implemented series.
