Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of heat conduction of dock folding device structures, and in particular to a high-fidelity finite element optimization method for thermal conductivity modeling of dock folding structural parts. Background Art
[0002] With the development of shipbuilding and marine engineering technology, dock folding devices are located in docks. As important facilities for the manufacture, maintenance and overhaul of marine engineering equipment such as ships, dock folding devices generate a lot of heat during operation, which is mainly caused by mechanical movement and friction between metal parts. If the heat cannot be effectively dissipated, it may cause overheating of the structural parts, thereby affecting their performance and life, and may even cause safety accidents. In order to improve the heat dissipation performance of the dock folding device structural parts, filling them with complex lattice microstructures is one of the effective means. However, traditional heat transfer models often ignore the influence of the internal microstructure of the dock folding device structural parts on the macroscopic thermal performance, resulting in the inability to accurately describe key parameters such as temperature gradients. Although the existing homogenization method has solved this problem to some extent, it still fails to fully consider the non-local effect, that is, the influence of changes in material properties at a small scale on the macroscopic performance.
[0003] Therefore, how to conduct thermodynamic modeling of the dock folding structure and optimize the model, accurately simulate and predict the thermal properties of complex materials at the microstructure scale, optimize their heat transfer performance and thus improve the heat transfer performance is an urgent problem to be solved.

[0098] Specifically, the process of establishing a non-local heat conduction model is as follows:
[0099] For a three-dimensional homogenization problem with a temperature gradient only in the x-direction, the nonlocal homogenization model can be expressed as:
[0100]
[0101] in, represents the nonlocal homogenization term of the temperature gradient in the x direction, is the effective thermal conductivity, Represents the nonlocal homogenization term for the heat flux in the x-direction.
[0102] Specifically, they are in the following form:
[0103]
[0104] Among them, the volume homogenization operator <·> V and temperature gradient are defined as follows:
[0105]
[0106] Wherein, L, W and H represent the length, width and height of the metamaterial structure, respectively, and the length, width and height directions correspond to the x direction, y direction and z direction, respectively. Specifically, L, W and H are the length, width and height of the composite structure made of the metamaterial having a solid network gyroid unit cell.
[0107] Specifically, the simplified model derivation process under uniform temperature field conditions is as follows:
[0108] Using the method of integration by parts, the nonlocal homogenization term of the temperature gradient in equation (3) is It can also be expressed as:
[0109]
[0110] If the temperature field applied to the surfaces z = 0.5L and z = -0.5L is uniform, it can be further simplified as:
[0111]
[0112] in:
[0113]
[0114] Specifically, the derivation process of the thermal conductivity model of the three-dimensional microstructure effect is as follows:
[0115] Through equations (1), (2), and (7), the effective thermal conductivity can be solved by the following equation:
[0116]
[0117] The uniform constitutive relation for heat transfer is given by:
[0118]
[0119] Where κ is the thermal conductivity, l is the intrinsic length, and ξ is the contribution fraction of the size-dependent effect of the nonlocal phase. x, y, and z are the coordinate positions in the x, y, and z directions, respectively, and x', y', and z' are the coordinate positions of the points adjacent to the coordinate positions x, y, and z, respectively.
[0120] Substituting formula (10) into formula (9), we can get:
[0121]
[0122] It is able to capture three-dimensional microstructural effects. Among them:
[0123]
[0124] In some embodiments, the effective thermal conductivity depends not only on the temperature gradient in the x-direction, but also on the y-direction and the z-direction. The method based on non-local homogenization modeling proposed in the present application can capture the three-dimensional microstructure effect.
[0125] Specifically, the derivation process of the effective thermal conductivity calculation formula is as follows:
[0126] In some embodiments, the metamaterial structure is a composite structure, including a porous titanium structure and a titanium-aluminum composite structure. For the porous titanium structure, the filling material is air. For the titanium-aluminum composite structure, the filling material is aluminum. For an infinite metamaterial structure with infinite cells in all three directions, the intrinsic length is much smaller than the extrinsic length (infinity). In some embodiments, the extrinsic length of the metamaterial structure is much smaller than the intrinsic length. That is, the nonlocal contribution can be ignored. In this case, ξ = 0, and the size-free thermal conductivity κ can be calibrated. In order to obtain the size-free thermal conductivity, we impose periodic boundary conditions on a unit cell in all three directions for simulation. This method is called the multiscale method. Let us set a temperature difference of 0.1K on the two surfaces of a unit cell. Combining the multiscale method with the material properties, the size-free effective thermal conductivity is κ = 9.4062W / (m·K) for the porous titanium structure; and κ = 81.0510W / (m·K) for the titanium-aluminum composite structure. Since the size-free thermal conductivity κ is calibrated based on the multiscale method, where infinity is achieved by using periodic boundary conditions, the size-free thermal conductivity κ is size-free and cannot capture size-dependent heat transfer phenomena.
[0127] Integrate equations (13) and (14), k y and k z can be easily determined as:
[0128]
[0129] According to equation (7), k in equation (12) x can be rewritten as:
[0130]
[0131] Substituting equations (15) and (16) into equation (11), we obtain:
[0132]
[0133] In some embodiments, the effective thermal conductivity depends not only on the temperature gradient in the x-direction, but also on the width and height. In some embodiments, the height variation in the z-direction is selected to obtain a size-dependent thermal conductivity to calibrate the intrinsic length l and the non-local contribution fraction ξ.
[0134] In some embodiments, a high-fidelity finite element method is used to obtain a standard value of effective thermal conductivity based on the thermal conductivity model of the three-dimensional microstructure effect; based on the standard value of effective thermal conductivity, the effective thermal conductivity calculation formula is optimized to obtain an optimized effective thermal conductivity calculation model.
[0135] At the same time, this application proposes a microstructure enhanced non-local continuum model to simulate the ability of heat transfer in metamaterials.
[0136] Consider two composite structures made of metamaterials: a porous titanium structure and a titanium-aluminum composite structure. Solid network gyroid cells are used to represent these two structures, namely, the porous titanium structure and the titanium-aluminum composite structure. The level set approximation (geometric control equation) of the solid network gyroid cell is given by the following formula:
[0137] f(x,y,z) = sin(ωx)cos(ωy)
[0138] +sin(ωz)cos(ωx)+sin(ωy)cos(ωz)(19)
[0139] Here, ω = 2π / a, where a is the lattice constant, which is chosen as the characteristic length. The intrinsic length l = e0a, where e0 represents the strength of the nonlocal effect, which is an unknown parameter to be calibrated. The intrinsic length depends on the characteristic length and the strength of the nonlocal effect. The value of the parameter f(x,y,z) = c can be defined as a design variable to control the porosity volume fraction V p or relative density. For the solid gyroid unit cell, the solid volume is restricted by the minimum surface, i.e., f(x,y,z) < c or f(x,y,z) > c. The spatial volume V of the gyroid unit cell is a 3 , the volume of the matrix material (solid) is V m , and the porosity V p is defined as:
[0140]
[0141] The porosity V p can be filled with a filling material. For the porous titanium structure, the filling material is air; for the titanium-aluminum composite structure, the filling material is aluminum. In some embodiments of the present application, the porosity V p is 40% in all cases.
[0142] In some embodiments of the present application, the nonlocal parameters of the proposed model are calibrated using the high-fidelity finite element method (High-fidelity FEM). In some embodiments, the high-fidelity finite element method (FEM) can be some methods known in the prior art, and the high-fidelity finite element method (FEM) can consider all microstructural features. High-fidelity finite elements usually require a large amount of computing resources because fully resolved microstructures need to be considered. In high-fidelity finite elements, the classical Fourier model is adopted. However, for large engineering structures, high-fidelity finite elements require extremely large computing resources because fully resolved microstructures must be considered, and even multi-physics problems are often impossible to simulate. The microstructure-enhanced nonlocal model can solve the computational problem.
[0143] According to the multiscale theory, the microstructure of the representative volume element (RVE) can be equivalent to a linear isotropic homogeneous medium. In some embodiments, the nonlocal effect can transform the heterogeneous metamaterial into an equivalent homogeneous medium, thereby capturing the size-dependent thermodynamic behavior.
[0144] For the case of non-locally homogeneous media, the second-order tensor κ of thermal conductivity can be simplified to:
[0145]
[0146] where the thermal conductivity κ is now a scalar, e i and e j represents the unit basis vector, Represents a tensor product.
[0147] Without loss of generality, in some embodiments, a three-dimensional steady-state heat conduction problem with a temperature gradient only along the x-direction is considered. Within the framework of the microstructure-rich non-local model of the present application, the uniform constitutive relation for heat transfer can be written as:
[0148]
[0149] Wherein, L, W, and H represent the length, width, and height of the composite structure made of the metamaterial having the gyroid unit cell, respectively. In some embodiments, the effective thermal conductivity depends not only on the temperature gradient in the x direction, but also on the width and height. In some embodiments, the composite structure such as Figure 4 As shown. It has a composite structure of infinite length L and fixed width W=1a. The height H can be varied from 1a to 10a in order to characterize size-dependent heat transfer phenomena. In some embodiments, a=1m. Although the temperature gradient changes only in the x-direction, the non-local heat flux in the x-direction changes in all three directions. This is a major difference between the local (classical) model without microstructure and the microstructure-enhanced non-local model.
[0150] In some embodiments of the present application, the one-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuous model can be expressed as:
[0151]
[0152] It can be verified that the heat fluxes in the local Fourier model and the microstructure-enhanced nonlocal continuum model are identical when considering a uniform temperature gradient field.
[0153] The cells in metamaterials are usually very complex and the structure is three-dimensional. For three-dimensional heat transfer problems, the one-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuum model (Equation 22) can be expanded to the following form, namely the three-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuum model:
[0154]
[0155] The above analysis shows that the microstructure-enhanced nonlocal continuum model is naturally suitable for constructing metamaterial structure models, because the local Fourier-like term can capture the pure microstructure effect, while the spatially varying exponent of the power-law kernel function in the nonlocal term captures the position-dependent strength of the coupling interaction between the microstructure effect and the nonlocal effect.
[0156] In the embodiment of the present application, although the high-fidelity finite element method is time-consuming, it can take into account all microstructural features and thus has high-precision results. Therefore, the homogenized model equation (1) based on the accurate results obtained by the high-fidelity finite element method can be used to calibrate the non-local parameters and intrinsic length of the proposed model. Through the high-fidelity finite element method, the effective thermal conductivity is obtained according to equation (11).
[0157] For comparison, a parallel model or Voigt-type thermal conductivity model is introduced. When the temperature gradient is considered to be constant, the effective thermal conductivity based on the classical Fourier model is It can be expressed as:
[0158]
[0159] Here V p is the volume fraction of the inclusion phase. In the embodiment of the present application, the inclusion phase is air or aluminum, and V p =40%. m and κ p denote the thermal conductivity of the matrix (titanium) and the inclusion phase (air or aluminum), respectively. The effective thermal conductivity in equation (26) is Same as in the parallel model or Voigt-type thermal conductivity model. Same as size-dependent thermal conductivity in the microstructure-enhanced nonlocal model Unlike (Equation 11), the parallel model is size-independent.
[0160] In the x-direction, the temperature difference between the two surfaces was set to 0.1 K. Two composite structures made of metamaterials composed of gyroid cells were used, namely a porous titanium structure and a titanium-aluminum composite structure. The characteristic length a (lattice constant) was fixed to 1 meter. The x-axis represents the length direction, which is infinite and modeled using periodic boundary conditions. The y-axis represents the width direction, which is fixed to 1a. The height is measured in the z-direction and can be varied to characterize size-dependent heat transfer phenomena.
[0161] Figure 5The effective thermal conductivity of porous titanium structures predicted by nonlocal model, multiscale method, parallel model and high-fidelity FEM for microstructure enhancement. Figure 5 It can be observed that the effective thermal conductivity evaluated by the high-fidelity finite element method Dependent on height size. Since the parallel model cannot take into account the microstructural effects and the multiscale method ignores the size-dependent effects, both methods fail to capture the highly dependent thermal conductivity predicted by the high-fidelity finite element method. For porous titanium structures, the error range of the parallel model is between 44.1% and 44.9% because it considers a constant temperature gradient and ignores the microstructural effects. Compared with the parallel model, the multiscale method has higher accuracy. This is because the multiscale method can take into account the microstructural effects but ignores the size-dependent effects characterized by the intrinsic length. For porous titanium structures, the intrinsic length is comparable to the extrinsic length (such as width). The error range of the multiscale method is reduced to between 7.2% and 1.4%. Unlike the parallel model without microstructure and the multiscale method without size dependence, the microstructure-enhanced nonlocal continuum model proposed in this application combines microstructural effects and size-dependent effects. Therefore, the nonlocal homogenized thermal conductivity can capture the highly size-dependent heat transfer behavior and is in good agreement with the results evaluated by the high-fidelity finite element method. In some embodiments, the nonlocal parameter e0 is calibrated to 0.2681, the nonlocal contribution fraction ξ is calibrated to 23.7%, and for V p =40% porous titanium metamaterial structure, k x =12.36W / (m·K). The effective thermal conductivity of various metamaterial structures can be stored in a database. By selecting the effective thermal conductivity in the database, the temperature distribution of the microstructure enhanced non-local model can be calculated using traditional heat transfer analysis, which is similar to the method commonly used in the classical Fourier model. Unlike the high-fidelity finite element method, the microstructure enhanced non-local continuum model does not consider the microstructure characteristics, and the method of optimizing the microstructure enhanced non-local continuum model is more efficient than the high-fidelity finite element method. In an embodiment of the present application, the microstructure enhanced non-local modeling optimization method is an efficient and accurate method.
[0162] In some embodiments of the present application, a microstructure enhanced non-local modeling optimization method for a dock folding structure is proposed, wherein the dock folding structure includes a metamaterial structure, and the microstructure enhanced non-local modeling optimization method includes the following steps:
[0163] S1: Based on the heat flow and thermal resistance of the metamaterial structure in one dimension, a discrete variable model is introduced to construct a non-classical heat transfer continuum model; the discrete variable model includes discrete units and discrete parameters, and the metamaterial structure is a porous metamaterial;
[0164] S2: Using the lumped element method and combining the non-local effect, the porous metamaterial is divided into multiple discrete elements, and the one-dimensional lumped element model of the metamaterial structure is obtained by combining the microstructure effect and the size-dependent effect;
[0165] S3: replacing the discrete parameters with corresponding continuous medium form parameters, using integral form and integration by parts method to obtain a one-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuous model of heat transfer of metamaterial structure; wherein the length of the metamaterial structure on a macroscopic scale is much smaller than the intrinsic length;
[0166] S4: Ignoring the size dependence effect, the one-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuous model of heat transfer in metamaterial structure is simplified to a multi-scale method model, and combined with the normalization condition, a three-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuous model of metamaterial structure is obtained; in which the external length of the metamaterial structure is much larger than the intrinsic length;
[0167] S5: calculating the temperature distribution of the metamaterial structure based on the three-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuous model of the metamaterial structure, and optimizing the metamaterial structure based on the temperature distribution;
[0168] The non-classical heat transfer continuum model in step S1 is:
[0169]
[0170] Where Q represents thermal energy, t represents time, is the internal heat flow of the discrete unit, T1 and T2 represent the temperatures of two adjacent lumped units, and k is the thermal conductivity, which is defined as follows:
[0171]
[0172] Where R is the thermal resistance, L e represents the total length of the lumped element, A represents the cross-sectional area, and κ represents the thermal conductivity;
[0173] The one-dimensional lumped unit model of the metamaterial structure in step S2 is:
[0174]
[0175] in, represents the internal heat flow of the i-th cell, i and j represent the i-th and j-th cells respectively, and x i and x jThey represent the coordinate positions of the i-th cell and the j-th cell respectively, Δx is the distance between two adjacent lumped cells, i.e., the length on the macroscopic scale, l is the intrinsic length, i.e., the intrinsic length. is the coefficient determined according to the normalization condition, ξ is the contribution fraction of the non-local phase considering the size dependence effect, T i and T j are the temperatures of the ith and jth cells, respectively;
[0176] The one-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuous model in step S3 is:
[0177]
[0178] Wherein, the independent variable x is the coordinate position, x' is the coordinate position of the point adjacent to the coordinate position x after replacing the discrete parameter with the corresponding continuous medium form, T(x) is the temperature at the coordinate position x, T(x') is the temperature at the coordinate position x', and q x is the heat flux:
[0179]
[0180] The three-dimensional microstructure enhanced non-local continuous model in step S4 is:
[0181]
[0182] in, is the Hamiltonian operator, T is the temperature, x, y, z are the coordinate positions in the x, y, and z directions respectively, x', y', z' are the coordinate positions of the points adjacent to the coordinate positions x, y, and z after the discrete parameters are replaced by the corresponding continuous medium forms, and κ is the thermal conductivity in vector form.
[0183] like Figure 6 The effective thermal conductivity of the titanium-aluminum composite structure evaluated by the high-fidelity finite element method is shown in Figure 2. It is also highly size-dependent. The effective thermal conductivities of the titanium-aluminum composite structure predicted by the parallel model and the multiscale method are 107.94 W / (m·K) and 81.0510 W / (m·K), respectively. These two effective thermal conductivities are much larger than the values predicted by the high-fidelity finite element method. Since the proposed microstructure-enhanced nonlocal model combines the microstructure effect and the size-dependent effect, the nonlocal homogenized thermal conductivity is able to capture the highly size-dependent heat transfer behavior and shows good consistency with the results evaluated by the high-fidelity finite element method, such as Figure 7 As shown. The nonlocal parameter e0 is calibrated to 0.2661, the nonlocal contribution fraction ξ is calibrated to 26.61%, and the k of the titanium-aluminum composite structure is x= 100.3 W / (m·K). The proposed model can achieve prediction accuracy consistent with the high-fidelity finite element model of the titanium-aluminum composite structure.
