[0002] The divertor unit is a key component in a magnetic confinement fusion device, and its assembly accuracy is crucial to its overall performance. However, due to its complex structure and difficult assembly, the actual development process often faces the problem of assembly accuracy failing to meet design requirements. In this context, developing effective assembly deviation analysis and tolerance optimization methods for divertor units in magnetic confinement fusion devices is of great significance for ensuring divertor unit assembly accuracy and reducing divertor unit manufacturing costs. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To address the above problems, the present invention proposes an assembly deviation analysis method for a local parallel structure considering the geometric leverage effect, and constructs a deviation analysis model for the divertor unit. Based on the deviation analysis model, a tolerance optimization model is constructed in combination with a genetic algorithm, with the goal of minimizing machining costs and the constraints of assembly accuracy and machining capacity.

[0033] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments:
[0034] S1: Derivation of the spinor expression for a local parallel structure consisting of two mutually perpendicular planar connection pairs considering the geometric leverage effect.
[0035] S11: Figure 1 As shown, the spinor expression derivation of the local parallel structure composed of two mutually perpendicular plane connection pairs considering the geometric lever effect proposed in the present invention includes the following steps:

[0038] (3) The upper and lower limits of the β1 parameter under the constraint of leverage effect are and β 1, can be calculated by formula (1) and (2), when and β1 satisfy When , the constraint of the leverage effect on the spinor parameters is stronger than the constraint of the tolerance domain. At this time, T p1 The range of the spinor parameter β1 is
[0039]
[0040] (4) The upper and lower limits of the β2 parameter in the planar connection pair 2 spinor under the action of the lever effect are and β2 , can be calculated by formula (3) and (4). and β2 satisfy When the lever effect constrains the spinor parameters more than the tolerance domain, the corresponding T p2 The range of parameter β2 in the spinor is

[0042]
[0043] (5) For the spin parameter α1, O1M is the ideal position, and O1N is the limit position of clockwise rotation around point O1 under the tolerance domain constraint. The angle between them is the limit of the α1 spin parameter. Similarly, the upper limit of the γ2 spin parameter is the angle between O2M and O2N. Since the tolerance domain is symmetric with respect to the rotation center, the upper and lower limits of the α1 and γ2 spin parameters are the same under the influence of the leverage effect, which can be calculated using Equations (5) and (6).

[0062] (2) First, we discuss the influence of the spin parameter α, the cylindrical surface connecting the spinor T c1 and T c2 The α-spin parameter is zero, that is, a single cylindrical connection pair does not constrain the α-spin parameter. Therefore, in T c1 and T c2 The upper and lower limits of the α parameter in the screw due to the lever effect should be the same. The upper and lower limits of the α parameter are:

[0080] S4: Tolerance contribution and tolerance sensitivity analysis
[0081] S41: According to the relevant knowledge of probability statistics, in the statistical calculation process, the sample data generated by each functional element and the sample data of the functional requirement follow the square root principle. Therefore, when the sample data satisfies the normal distribution, the functional requirement (FR) and the functional element FE i The relationship between the standard deviations of can be expressed as formula (10).
[0082]
[0083] Where σ FR is the standard deviation of functional requirements, is the standard deviation of the functional element. can be written as:
[0084]
[0085] By dynamically adjusting a tolerance parameter in a combined tolerance while keeping other tolerances unchanged, the standard deviation (σ) of the tolerance and the functional element can be established. FEi ) mapping relationship. By performing the same process on other tolerances in the combined tolerance, a set describing the mapping relationship between each tolerance and the functional element can be generated. By fitting the data in the mapping relationship set, the mapping relationship between each tolerance in the combined tolerance and σ can be established. FEi The approximate mathematical relationship between them can ultimately determine the contribution of each tolerance within the combined tolerance.
[0086] The tolerance contribution decomposition algorithm is mainly divided into the following steps:
[0087] 1) FE obtained from Monte Carlo simulation i The standard deviation σ FEi and the standard deviation σ of the functional requirement FR FR , calculate the FE of each functional element i Contribution of
[0088] 2) Determine the FE to be decomposed iIs it a combined tolerance? If it contains only one tolerance, the FE i The tolerance contribution is the contribution of the tolerance, otherwise it needs to be decomposed;
[0089] 3) Use the control variable method to change a tolerance value at a certain step size each time to obtain the tolerance value and the FE containing the tolerance i The standard deviation σ FEi The mapping relationship between them;
[0090] 4) fitting the mapping relationship obtained in step (3);
[0091] 5) Calculate the tolerance contribution of each tolerance to FR.
[0092] S42: The contribution of tolerance to FR deviation along x, y and z axes is as follows Figure 16 shown.
[0093] S43: Single parameter perturbation method
[0094] The single parameter perturbation method is based on the local sensitivity theory. By adjusting a single tolerance parameter independently, its linear effect on the assembly error is observed. Assume that the assembly error transfer function is T = f(t1, t2, ..., t n ), where t i is the ith tolerance parameter. i When , the sensitivity coefficient is defined as:
[0095]
[0096] Where S i is the tolerance sensitivity; ΔT is the change in assembly deviation; Δt i is the change of the ith tolerance;
[0097] S44: Tolerance sensitivity to FR deviation along x, y and z axes Figure 17 shown.
[0098] S5: Divertor unit tolerance optimization design
[0099] S51: Assembly function requirement constraints:
[0100]
[0101] v max ≤[v] FR (14)
[0102] Where, [d] FR is the maximum normal offset distance of FR under design requirements, u max is the maximum value of the FR spinor parameter u, w maxis the maximum value of the FR spinor parameter w, v max is the maximum value of the FR spinor parameter v, [v] FR The maximum circumferential offset distance of FR under design requirements. In this paper, the design requirements [d] FR =0.5mm, [v] FR =0.3mm.
[0103] S52: Processing capacity constraints
[0104] In tolerance optimization design, processing capability constraints refer to the limitations on processing accuracy caused by factors such as equipment, processes, and materials during the actual processing of parts. These constraints determine the scope of tolerance design, that is, the designed tolerance value must be within the range allowed by the processing capability. If it is too strict, it will lead to impossibility or excessive cost, while if it is too loose, it will affect product performance.
[0105]
[0106] Where, T i 、 Indicates the upper and lower bounds of the ith tolerance. In this paper, according to the processing capability of each tolerance, the search space of the optimization algorithm is set as shown in Table 6.

[0110]
[0111] S54: Genetic Algorithm Improvement
[0112] (1) Hybrid initialization
[0113] Random initialization, randomly generate a part of the population individuals to cover the entire search space. Confirm the upper and lower limits of each tolerance according to the processing capability requirements Then, tolerance values are randomly generated within the tolerance range to form an individual and increase genetic diversity.
[0114] In the divertor unit tolerance optimization design problem, heuristic initialization prioritizes larger tolerance values for tolerances with lower contributions, based on the calculated tolerance contributions, to reduce processing costs. Next, the generated individuals are verified for assembly accuracy, and those that do not meet the constraints are eliminated. Ultimately, a high-quality initial solution is generated that meets both assembly accuracy constraints and has low processing costs. This approach improves the overall quality of the initial population and lays a good foundation for subsequent genetic algorithm optimization. Tolerance initialization formula:
[0115]
[0116] Where, and T i is the upper and lower limits of the ith tolerance; PC i is the tolerance contribution of the i-th tolerance; n is the total number of tolerances; rand is the random number corresponding to the individual in the range of (0,1).
[0117] (2) Adaptive mutation
[0118] The variation amplitude controls the size of individual gene changes in the genetic algorithm. The variation operation is adjusted in combination with the optimization problem. The variation amplitude is determined according to the sensitivity of the tolerance. For high-sensitivity tolerances, the variation amplitude is reduced to avoid a significant impact on assembly accuracy. Conversely, the variation amplitude is increased to enhance the global search capability. The variation amplitude formula is as follows:
[0119]
[0120] Where ΔT is the tolerance variation of the i-th value, T base is the basic variation range, S i is the sensitivity of the ith tolerance, n is the total number of tolerances, and rand is the random number of the individual in the range of (0,1).
[0121]
[0122] Where, f avg is the average fitness value of the population, f max is the maximum fitness value in the population, the fitness value of the parent individual during the f' mutation operation, R is the total number of algorithm iterations, and r is the number of iterations in which the optimal individual in the current population has not changed. Among them, λ1,λ2∈(0,1) are the upper and lower limits of the adaptive crossover probability, and λ1>λ2.
[0123] (3) Adaptive crossover probability
[0124]
[0125] Where, f avg is the average fitness value of all individuals in the current population, f max is the fitness value of the optimal individual, f c is the maximum fitness of the parent individuals in the crossover operation, R is the total number of algorithm iterations, and r is the number of iterations in which the optimal individual in the current population has not changed. Among them, λ1,λ2∈(0,1) are the upper and lower limits of the adaptive crossover probability, and the size relationship is λ1>λ2.
