Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of ship composite material structures, and in particular relates to a method for analyzing the fire-resistant heat transfer and fire-resistant bearing performance of ship composite material structures. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, the demand for new material structure application technology required by the lightweight design of superstructure structures has become increasingly prominent. In the 1950s, the United States first used composite materials in shipbuilding, and then countries around the world began to develop composite shipbuilding. Early small and medium-sized minehunters in Europe and the United States, such as the British "Sandown" class minehunters and the Norwegian "Oksoy" class minehunters, applied the non-magnetic properties of composite materials to improve the vitality of ships; subsequently, composite materials were applied to stealth ships, patrol boats and frigates, such as the French "Lafayette" frigate and the Swedish "Visby" series of frigates. At present, the US "San Antonio" class dock transport ship and even the latest generation of destroyers DDG1000; the new generation of Russian "Alexander Obukhov" minesweeper, which entered service in 2015, is the first minesweeper made of all composite materials. The ship has the world's largest composite ship hull. In addition, composite materials are also widely used in secondary load-bearing structures such as chimneys, bulkheads, decks, and rudders. Practice has shown that advanced composite materials can meet the development needs of future ships in terms of stealth, weight reduction, etc., especially the use of composite materials in superstructures, which can not only reduce weight, but also lower the center of gravity and effectively improve the stability of the ship. The application of composite materials in superstructure structures has become an important development trend in naval ships around the world.
[0003] Although composite materials have advantages that traditional metal materials cannot match, composite materials themselves also have certain disadvantages, such as fire characteristics, which is also an important factor limiting the large-scale use of their structures on ships. Although composite materials have good fire resistance and heat insulation properties, the molding resin matrix is a potential flammable material. When the composite material structure is exposed to high temperature environment, it will lose strength and produce thermal decomposition. Therefore, when a fire occurs on a ship, the ship's composite material structure will quickly lose its bearing capacity in a high temperature fire environment, resulting in the collapse of the hull structure, which directly leads to the loss of combat effectiveness of the ship.
[0004] Therefore, the increasing demand for resin-based composite materials and the potential fire safety hazards caused by the use of composite materials on board ships are relatively prominent. Under the background that navies around the world have already started research on the fire resistance of composite materials structures, research on the fire resistance of marine composite materials structures is of great significance and value in promoting the large-scale engineering application of composite materials in marine structures, reducing the weight of ship structures, improving ship stealth, and increasing ship speed. Summary of the invention

[0077] Embodiment 1:
[0078] The ship composite material structure includes a composite laminate structure, a composite sandwich plate structure or a composite stiffened plate structure. The ship composite material includes a fiber reinforced composite material and a filling core material.
[0079] The marine composite material structure considering material decomposition used in this embodiment adopts a composite material laminate structure, and a heat transfer characteristic analysis method is provided based on the composite material laminate structure.
[0080] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment establishes a flat plate model of a composite laminate. Specifically, a carbon fiber epoxy resin-based composite material is used. The model has a length and width of 150 mm*150 mm, a thickness of 4 mm, and an effective heating area of 100 mm*100 mm in the central area. A heat flux of 116 kW / m2 is applied to one side of the composite laminate. Figure 2 As shown, the predefined temperature field model temperature is 25°C.
[0081] In this embodiment, the effects of anisotropic heat conduction of the composite laminate, thermal convection of the decomposed gas, and endothermic decomposition of the material are taken into account, and it is assumed that the solid material and the decomposed gas are in thermal equilibrium. However, the accumulation of gas produced by the decomposition inside the material and its outward diffusion and overflow are not considered, and the thermochemical expansion produced by the decomposition of the material is not considered, that is, the heat loss caused by the work done by the expansion of the material is not considered.
[0082] Based on the above considerations and non-considerations, according to the law of conservation of energy, a physical heat transfer model of composite materials under heat flow load is established as follows Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the heat transfer equation of the composite material under the action of heat flux load is:
[0083]
[0084] In the formula, the first term represents the rate of change of the internal energy per unit volume of the material; the second term represents the heat flux of conduction inside the material; the third term represents the convection heat transfer of the decomposed gas inside the material; the fourth term represents the heat absorbed by the material analysis; T represents temperature, t represents time; ρ represents the density of the material; Represents the gas mass flow rate (mass flow through the cross section per unit time); and Represent the enthalpy change of solid material and gas material (Δh=C P ΔT, CP and C Pg are the specific heat capacity of solid materials and gas respectively, T0 represents the initial temperature, and the above formula can only be satisfied under constant pressure);
[0085] k1, k2, and k3 represent thermal conductivity in three directions, respectively, where z is the thickness direction; Q is the decomposition heat, and if it is an endothermic reaction, Q is a negative value.
[0086] The material pyrolysis equation is determined by the pyrolysis kinetic model:
[0087]
[0088] The above formula is transformed from the thermolysis kinetic equation, namely the Arrhenius equation get.
[0089] Where: v is the raw material density, ρ c is the density of the material after carbonization, A, E, and n are reaction rate constants, that is, the three factors of thermal analysis kinetics, which are pre-exponential factor, ignition energy, and reaction order, respectively, and R is the ideal gas constant.
[0090] Based on the assumption that the decomposed gas accumulates continuously inside the material, the continuity equation can be expressed as:
[0091]
[0092] The thermal parameters of materials mainly include density ρ, thermal conductivity k and specific heat capacity C p ,Thermogravimetric curves show that the composite material mainly undergoes a single-stage thermal decomposition reaction at high temperature, such as Figure 5 As shown, the composite material decomposes from its intact state into fiber carbon and volatile gases. Therefore, at a certain temperature, the density of the composite material can be regarded as a combination of the densities of the undecomposed and decomposed materials.
[0093] According to the law of mixture, the material density ρ of the composite material after decomposition is obtained p for:
[0094] ρ p =(1-α p )ρ v +α p ρ c (4)
[0095] In the formula, α p is the degree of thermal decomposition; ρ v is the density of the composite material before decomposition, which is 1810kg / m 3 ρ cis the material density after the composite material is completely decomposed; since the mass fraction of the composite material after thermal decomposition is about 65%, the material density after decomposition is obtained as c =1810*65%=1158kg / m 3 Obviously, according to formula (4), as the thermal decomposition of the composite material continues, the density continues to decrease.
[0096] Determining the thermal parameters of materials is one of the key factors in thermal response analysis of composite materials. Under unilateral heating conditions, the thermal physical parameters of materials are functions of temperature and decomposition degree. During the material decomposition process, the decomposition degree of the material can be expressed by the residual mass fraction of the original material. The expression for the retention rate of the residual mass fraction of the original material is as follows:
[0097]
[0098] Therefore, according to the law of mixtures, the anisotropic thermal conductivity of the material can be expressed as:
[0099] k i =Fk v +(1-F)k c ,i=1,2,3 (6)
[0100] Where kv is the thermal conductivity of the original material, and kc is the thermal conductivity of the completely carbonized material.
[0101] The specific heat capacity of solid materials also uses the law of mixtures, and the specific expression is:
[0102] C p =FC pv +(1-F)C pc (7)
[0103] In the formula, C pv is the specific heat capacity of the original material, C pc is the specific heat capacity of completely carbonized material.
[0104] To simulate the thermal response of composite materials under unilateral heating, the corresponding initial conditions and boundary conditions need to be defined. At the initial moment, no decomposition gas is generated:
[0105] t=0,T=T0,ρ=ρ v , ρ c =0 (8)
[0106] Fire-facing surface boundary conditions (third type of boundary conditions):
[0107] q f =(q rad -εσT 4 )+h f (T ∞ -Ts ) (9)
[0108] In the formula, the heat flux of the heated surface = radiation heat flux (external radiation heat flux - radiation heat of the material on the fire-facing surface) + gas convection heat flux (gas convection heat transfer on the fire-facing surface).
[0109] Back-fire boundary conditions (third type boundary conditions):
[0110] q b =εσ(T b 4 -T ∞ 4 )+h b (T b -T s ) (10)
[0111] Wherein, the surface heat flux of the back-fire surface = radiation heat flux (heat radiated from the back-fire surface to the atmosphere) + gas convection heat flux (gas convection heat transfer on the back-fire surface).
[0112] In the above formula, q f is the net heat flux on the heated surface, q rad is the externally applied radiation heat flux, σ is the Boltzmann constant, Ts, T b are the surface and back temperatures of the material, T∞ is the ambient temperature, h f and h b are the convective heat transfer coefficients on the surface and back of the material, respectively, and ε is the emissivity of the material.
[0113] Based on the above theory, the secondary development of the UMATHT subroutine established a composite material thermal response finite element model that takes into account the internal gas convection and matrix decomposition after the composite material decomposes at high temperature. In order to solve the three-dimensional heat conduction model and continuity equation of the composite material, it is necessary to define the unit mass internal heat energy U and the unit mass internal heat energy partial derivative with respect to temperature in UMATHT. And the partial derivative of the thermal energy per unit mass with respect to the temperature gradient In addition, it is necessary to define the heat flow vector f and the partial derivative of the heat flow vector f with respect to temperature and the partial derivative of the heat flux vector with respect to the temperature gradient These variables need to be calculated in every increment.
[0114] By transforming formula (1) and substituting it into the continuity equation (3) and the specific heat capacity expression, the final form of the heat transfer equation for finite element implementation can be obtained:
[0115]
[0116] The basic energy balance equation for heat transfer in the model is:
[0117]
[0118] in, is the rate of change of thermal energy in the material with temperature, q is the heat flux per unit area flowing into the control body, and r is the heat supplied to the control body per unit volume.
[0119] Combining the above equations (11) and (12), we can calculate U and Equivariable expressions;
[0120] The calculation expression of U at the end of the incremental step is:
[0121] U(t+Δt)=U(t)+ΔU (13)
[0122] In one incremental step, the internal heat energy increment ΔU is calculated as:
[0123]
[0124] Then, in the above formula (13), The expression is:
[0125]
[0126] The expression is:
[0127]
[0128] The expression of heat flow vector f is:
[0129]
[0130] The calculation expression is:
[0131]
[0132] The calculation formula is:
[0133]
[0134] By defining the above variables and updating the state variables through the UMATHT subroutine, the thermal response analysis and calculation of the composite material considering the decomposition gas convection heat transfer and material decomposition can be carried out. Specifically, along the thickness direction of the laminate, the temperature of the center area at 0mm, 1mm, 2mm, 3mm and 4mm away from the fire surface changes with time, such as Figure 6 shown.
[0135] Depend on Figure 6It can be seen that in the initial stage of heating, the temperature at different depths gradually increases with the increase of heating time. This is mainly because the thickness of the material is only 4mm. Under the action of the larger external flame heat flux, more heat is transferred to the back of the material in a short time, resulting in a significant temperature rise at each depth in the initial stage of heating. As the heating time increases, the temperature rise rate at each depth decreases. This is mainly because the increase in the temperature of the heated surface leads to an enhanced radiation heat dissipation capacity, and the material reaches the pyrolysis temperature to undergo a pyrolysis reaction, absorbing part of the heat, and the pyrolysis gas diffuses to the surface of the material to take away part of the heat. In the later stage of heating, the temperature rise rate at 1mm and 2mm continued to decrease, and the temperature rose slowly; the temperature at 3mm and 4mm was close to a stable state, which was mainly because the heat exchange between the back of the material and the environment reached a dynamic balance. The stress cloud diagram is shown as follows Figure 7 shown.
[0136] Depend on Figure 7 As shown in a-7b and 8a-8d, with the increase of heating time, the temperature of the heated surface gradually increases. When heated to 100s, the temperature of most heated surfaces has reached the pyrolysis temperature of epoxy resin. Due to the heat transfer of the material in the plane direction, the heat is gradually transferred from the heated surface to the insulation area. The temperature in the same plane tends to gradually decrease from the center to the edge. The area where the material temperature reaches the pyrolysis temperature of epoxy resin is gradually increasing, and the material temperature in some insulation areas has reached the pyrolysis temperature, and pyrolysis reaction occurs. In the thickness direction, heat is gradually transferred from the heated surface of the material to the back. With the increase of heating time, the maximum material temperature appears at the center of the heated surface. The temperature of the area close to the back of the material gradually increases and no longer changes significantly. The temperature in the thickness direction shows a gradient distribution. When heated to 300s, the maximum material temperature is 1107K.
[0137] like Fig. 9 As shown in the figure, Y-0 represents the fire-facing surface, and Y-4 represents the back-facing surface. As the material thickness increases, the longer it takes for the material to reach the critical pyrolysis temperature, the later the pyrolysis reaction occurs. For the fire-facing surface, under the action of high temperature, it is rapidly carbonized after heating to 45 seconds, and gradually moves toward the back-facing surface. As the thickness increases, the material pyrolysis reaction time increases. Due to the thin model, the back-facing surface material is also quickly and completely carbonized.
[0138] Depend on Fig.10 It can be seen that at 45 seconds, the fire-facing area began to thermally decompose, but did not completely enter the carbonization stage. As the heating time increased, at 50 seconds, the fire-facing area underwent complete thermal decomposition. At 120 seconds, the back-fired area of the laminate structure completely thermally decomposed and entered the carbonization stage.
[0139] Furthermore, by utilizing composite laminate theory, Hashin failure criterion, delamination failure criterion and material stiffness degradation model, the UMAT subroutine is adopted to simulate the failure behaviors of fiber tension and compression, matrix tension and compression, tension delamination and compression delamination of fiber reinforced composites.
[0140] It should be noted that since this embodiment only calculates the model temperature field and assumes that no thermochemical expansion occurs during expansion, its thermal expansion deformation cannot be calculated. However, the expansion deformation or displacement can be obtained by the refractory bearing characteristic calculation method (working thermal-mechanical coupling method), of course, provided that the applied mechanical load is small enough not to affect the thermal expansion deformation.
[0141] This embodiment establishes a method for simulating damage and failure of fiber-reinforced composite materials and filled core materials based on the calculation of the real-time temperature field of the structure by the UMATHT subroutine. Specifically, the UMAT subroutine is used to simulate the damage and failure of the fiber-reinforced composite materials. The analysis method includes the following steps:
[0142] Composite laminate theory. Assuming the temperature difference is ΔT(x,y,z), the expansion caused by the temperature difference is ε T It can be calculated by the following formula:
[0143] ε T =α·ΔT (20)
[0144] Where: α is the thermal expansion coefficient. The constitutive equation of the laminate based on temperature influence is as follows:
[0145]
[0146] In the formula, There are 6 stress components and strain components It can be expressed by the following formula:
[0147]
[0148] matrix The calculation formula is as follows:
[0149]
[0150] in:
[0151]
[0152] In the formula, They are the Poisson’s ratios of the corresponding materials at temperature T; They are the elastic modulus of the material corresponding to temperature T; They are the shear modulus of the material corresponding to temperature T;
[0153] B2: Composite laminate theory: Failure criteria for composite materials. A combination of the Hashin criterion and the Yeh delamination failure criterion is used to determine whether the material has failed. F1, F2 and F3 are used to describe the failure criteria of the fiber, matrix and delamination respectively. When damage failure occurs inside a composite laminate, the stress distribution in the local damaged area is complex and changes dramatically, while the strain distribution is relatively continuous and smooth before and after the damage. Therefore, the strain-based failure criterion is more suitable for describing the progressive damage evolution of composite materials. In this embodiment, without considering shear nonlinearity, the strain-based damage failure state of the three-dimensional Hashin criterion and the delamination failure criterion is described as follows:
