Abstract:

In order to further reveal the conveying mechanism of crushed corn stalks feed in the screw conveyor and improve the accuracy of the parameters used in discrete element simulation research during the screw conveying process of crushed corn stalks, the crushed corn stalks were divided into straw core, straw leaf and straw skin. The discrete element simulation parameters were calibrated. First, the average and range of the intrinsic parameters and contact parameters of core, leaf and skin were obtained through physical tests, and the contact parameters with a relatively large range were screened by Plackett-Burman test using their significance. The test results showed that the factors that had significant effect on the simulated stacking angle were the core-leaf rolling friction coefficient, the skin-leaf rolling friction coefficient, and the leaf-leaf static friction coefficient. Then, the evaluation index is set as the three significant parameters of the relative error value between the test and the actual stacking angle to carry out the steepest climbing test, and the value range of the three significant parameters was optimized and narrowed, and finally the accumulation angle and the second-order regression model between the angle and the saliency parameter were established by Box-Behnken test. The target value of the accumulation angle was set to 30.4° measured by the physical test, and the optimal value of the saliency parameters were obtained by optimization, which the leaf-core rolling friction coefficient, skin-leaf rolling friction coefficient and leaf-leaf static friction coefficient were 0.325, 0.377 and 0.411. And the simulated stacking angle obtained when each parameter was optimal was 30.77°. In order to further test the accuracy of the parameter values, the t test showed P was more than 0.05, indicating that there was no significant difference in the value of the stacking angle between the simulation and the physical test, which could verify the reliability of the optimal parameter values. The results showed that it was feasible to use the above physical tests and optimization tests to measure and calibrate discrete element simulation parameters, and the calibrated parameters could provide reference for other simulation tests of crushing corn stalks.

摘要:

为进一步揭示揉碎玉米秸秆饲料在螺旋输送器中的输送机理,提高揉碎玉米秸秆螺旋输送过程中离散元仿真研究所用参数的准确度,将揉碎玉米秸秆分为秸秆穰、秸秆叶、秸秆皮,采用物理试验和仿真优化设计相结合的方法对离散元仿真参数进行标定。首先,通过物理试验得到穰、叶、皮各项本征参数和接触参数的平均值和范围,将范围相对较大的接触参数通过Plackett-Burman试验利用其显著性进行筛选。结果表明,对仿真堆积角影响显著的因素有穰-叶滚动摩擦系数、皮-叶滚动摩擦系数、叶-叶静摩擦系数。对这3个显著性参数进行最陡爬坡试验,将其取值范围进行优化缩小,通过Box-Behnken试验建立堆积角与显著性参数的二阶回归模型,堆积角的目标值设置为物理试验测得的30.4°,寻优得到最佳的显著性参数的取值:叶-穰滚动摩擦系数为0.325,皮-叶滚动摩擦系数为0.377,叶-叶静摩擦系数为0.411,在此组合下仿真堆积角为30.77°。为进一步检验参数取值的准确性,通过t检验得到P>0.05,表明仿真与物理试验堆积角的值无明显差异,验证了最佳参数取值的可靠性。由此表明,应用上述各物理试验和优化试验来测定及标定离散元仿真参数是可行的,同时标定的参数为揉碎玉米秸秆的其他仿真试验提供了参考。
