Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of submerged blowing spray guns, and in particular to a multi-channel swirl spray gun optimization method and system based on graph convolution. Background Art

[0002] The top-submerged lance (TSL) process is a mature and efficient non-ferrous metal intensified smelting technology. This process combines the top-blown molten pool smelting process and the submerged injection technology. Air or oxygen-enriched air and fuel are injected into the high-temperature molten pool through a specially designed vertically mounted lance. It was developed by Dr. John Floyd in the 1970s. In this process, the main functions of the gas include: strengthening stirring, promoting full mixing and homogenization of the materials in the furnace, and improving the efficiency of heat and material transfer; sending solid additives (such as solid fuel, slag modifier / stabilizer) into the molten pool; under high temperature conditions, oxygen or other reaction gases react with impurities in the ore to form slag and metal separation, effectively extracting the target metal. Due to its superior efficiency and environmental performance, it has significant advantages in the field of non-ferrous metal refining with complex ores and high impurities. The TSL process has become an important means of modern intensified smelting and is widely used in the extraction of non-ferrous metals such as copper, tin, lead and zinc. During the smelting process, the submerged top-blowing lance equipped with a cyclone converts the axial jet into a chaotic cyclone and then injects it into the high-temperature molten pool, generating a strong turbulent stirring effect, increasing the gas-liquid contact area, and greatly improving the smelting reaction rate. However, in actual application, the erosion of the lance wall by the cyclone will cause the lance to bend or the nozzle to burn, greatly limiting the service life of the submerged top-blowing lance. The TSL molten pool smelting system involves complex cyclone-axial coaxial jet motion, jet-particle mixing, and gas-slag multiphase stirring behavior. A comprehensive and in-depth understanding of the complex cyclone fluid dynamics in the TSL furnace will help the operation, optimization, and performance improvement of the top-blown molten pool smelting system.

[0003] At present, the research on TSL process mainly focuses on the gas-slag multiphase stirring characteristics in the molten pool, while the research on the chaotic motion and attenuation characteristics of the swirl in the top-blowing lance is rarely reported. Among them, the cyclone structure is an important factor affecting the intensity of the chaotic motion of the swirl and its flow morphology. Improving the swirl performance in the industrial reactor by optimizing the cyclone structure is helpful to improve the operating efficiency of industrial equipment. In recent years, domestic and foreign scholars have mainly studied the influence of spiral cyclone geometric parameters (such as blade length, blade rotation angle, blade installation height and blade thickness, etc.) on swirl disturbance, swirl intensity attenuation, and effective influence distance of the cyclone through experiments. However, due to the complex high temperature distribution state, harsh operating conditions and expensive experimental costs in industrial-scale reactors, it is difficult for experimental methods to deeply understand the swirl turbulence characteristics in the equipment. As a method that can complement experiments, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can study and explain various physical phenomena occurring in the reactor under harsh operating conditions by visualizing the multiphase interaction, multi-scale motion characteristics and multi-physical processes in the reactor, and conduct in-depth exploration of the coupling control mechanism of the process. With the update of computing hardware and the development of numerical algorithms, CFD has become a powerful tool for exploring the nonlinear characteristics of swirl in industrial applications. In the field of deep learning, graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) can process graph structure data with complex geometric shapes without converting them into regular grid or image formats. Therefore, GCNN can directly process unstructured grid data commonly used in CFD simulations, such as triangular or tetrahedral grids. And its basic idea is to update node features by aggregating node neighbor information (each node and edge has an initial feature vector, representing its attributes. For example, in the present invention, node features include node coordinates, velocity and pressure), which can effectively capture local structural information. Therefore, the present invention predicts the velocity field and pressure field of swirl spray guns with different geometric structures through the combination of CFD and GCNN, so as to deeply understand and analyze the flow characteristics, local physical characteristics and resistance parameters of the swirl spray gun.

[0004] Prior art 1, Chinese patent, application number: CN201910751432.9 discloses a Laval jet submerged top blowing spray gun, which relates to the field of non-ferrous metal smelting technology, including a hollow gun body, the gun body is cylindrical, one end of the gun body is a closed end, and the other end is an open end, characterized in that the inner cavity of the gun body is divided into a mixing section, a conveying section, a swirl section and a turbulent section from the closed end to the open end, a fuel pipe coaxially penetrates into the gun body from the center of the closed end and extends into the turbulent section, a pressure pipe is arranged on the outer sleeve of the fuel pipe in the gun body, an end pressure sampler is installed outside the gun body at the closed end, the end pressure sampler is inserted into the gun body and connected to the pressure pipe; at least two fluid interfaces are opened on the side wall of the gun body in the mixing section; at least one Laval injection device is installed in the gun body, and the Laval injection device is located between any two adjacent fluid interfaces; a swirler is installed in the gun body in the swirl section. Although the structure is simple, the fluid is mixed evenly, it is safe and reliable, and has a long service life, it does not take into account that the flow characteristics of the spray gun under different geometric structures are different, thus resulting in a short service life of the spray gun.

[0005] Prior art 2, Chinese patent, application number: CN202110223827.9 discloses a submerged top-blown converter, including a top-blown converter body, a material inlet and outlet are provided on the top of the top-blown converter body, and a submerged top-blown lance is inserted into the material inlet and outlet. The furnace has high reaction efficiency. By using the submerged top-blown molten pool for smelting, materials can be continuously added to the furnace, reducing the shutdown time for charging and improving the smelting operation rate. Since the submerged top-blown lance can be directly inserted into the molten pool, and a cyclone is provided in the submerged top-blown lance, the submerged top-blown lance stirs the molten pool violently, the materials are mixed more evenly, and the reaction efficiency in the furnace is improved. The top-blown converter is provided with a detection rod, which can sample and analyze the melt at any time, reduce the number of shutdown sampling times, keep the furnace temperature constant, and extend the furnace life. The support of the top-blown converter adopts a combination structure of a support ring and a roller, and adopts a large and small gear transmission. Although the transmission is more stable and overcomes the vibration impact of the furnace body, the use and life of the lance are not taken into account.

[0006] Prior art three, Chinese patent, application number: CN202010588955.9 discloses a modification method of a top-blown smelting facility, a continuous copper smelting facility and a method. The modification method of the top-blown smelting facility includes: canceling the converter or converting furnace of the top-blown converting facility; reducing the furnace height of the top-blown smelting furnace of the top-blown smelting facility; canceling the single submerged top-blown main lance of the top-blown smelting furnace; setting at least three top-blown smelting lances spaced from each other on the top of the top-blown smelting furnace; adding a copper matte discharge port to the top-blown smelting furnace; canceling the electrodes and electrode supporting devices of the sedimentation electric furnace of the top-blown smelting facility, and setting at least three top-blown converting lances spaced from each other on the top of the sedimentation electric furnace to transform the sedimentation electric furnace into a top-blown converting furnace; connecting the copper matte discharge port of the top-blown smelting furnace with the copper matte inlet of the top-blown converting furnace through a flow channel. Although the transformation method of the top-blowing smelting facility can make full use of the existing top-blowing smelting facilities, it can also be beneficial to the output of high-grade copper matte, create conditions for continuous blowing, and reduce the investment cost of continuous copper smelting. However, the flow characteristics, local physical characteristics and resistance of the swirl spray gun are not taken into consideration and calculated, resulting in a short spray gun life.

[0007] At present, the prior art 1, the prior art 2 and the prior art 3 do not take into account that the flow characteristics of the spray gun under different geometric structures are different, and do not consider and calculate the flow characteristics, local physical characteristics and resistance of the swirl spray gun, thus resulting in the problem of too short spray gun life.

[0102] Step S12: convert the three-dimensional data into a graph structure, project the pressure and velocity data onto the grid by linear interpolation; discretize each shape and the flow field area around it into a triangular grid, and each node contains coordinates, velocity and pressure information; and normalize the values ​​of the velocity field and the pressure field;

[0103] Each node in the grid is considered as a node in the graph structure, and the edge is defined by the spatial distance. The boundary conditions of the swirl blades are processed by SDF, and the data is assigned to each node as a feature.

[0104] Step S13: Reconstruct the data set, which includes 80% training set, 10% validation set and 10% test set, and input the reconstructed data set into the convolutional network model.

[0105] Preferably, this embodiment first uses CFD software to simulate and calculate the swirl spray gun under different geometric structures. Before the calculation, local encryption is also performed to ensure the mesh accuracy of key areas (such as the boundary of the swirl blade and the outlet of the spray gun). After calculation, three velocity fields (x, y, z) and one pressure field of the swirl spray gun are obtained, totaling four three-dimensional flow field data. After that, the three-dimensional data is converted into a graph structure, each node in the grid is regarded as a node in the graph structure, and the edge is defined by the spatial distance. The velocity, pressure and coordinate data need to be normalized, and the boundary conditions of the swirl blade are processed by SDF (Signdistance function), and then these data are assigned to each node as features. The input features of the final model include i) swirl blade boundary; ii) x coordinate of each node; iii) y coordinate of each node; iv) z coordinate of each node. The output includes i) pressure field; ii) x-direction velocity field; iii) y-direction velocity field; iv) z-direction velocity field. In the present invention, the architecture of the GCNN model consists of multiple graph convolution blocks, each of which contains two-step graph convolution layers and two-step smoothing layers. The graph convolution layer first calculates new edge features through edge convolution, then aggregates these features to the nodes, and finally calculates new node features using the updated node features and edge information. The smoothing layer is used to reduce the spatial variability of node features. The model also uses jump connections to directly connect the coordinate information of the input layer to each smoothing layer to provide spatial information for edge convolution. Finally, a 1×1 convolution layer (equivalent to a fully connected layer) is used to convert the node features into predicted velocity fields and pressure fields.

[0106] In summary, this embodiment comprehensively improves the processing accuracy of swirl gun flow field data and the prediction ability of the model by encrypting key areas, using CFD software for simulation, data conversion and graph structure construction, data set reconstruction and convolutional network model training, SDF processing and boundary condition assignment, and unstructured grid and adaptive nested grid methods.

[0108] Step S121: Collect the triangulated point set, select an initial triangle, the three vertices must be three points in the point set, and the three points cannot be collinear; wherein the point set includes key points at the swirl blade boundary and the spray gun outlet;

[0109] Step S122: inserting the rest of the points in the point set into the current triangulated network; each time a new point is inserted, checking whether the new point will cause some triangular units to no longer meet the empty circle characteristic; if not, deleting the non-compliant triangular units to form a hole;

[0110] Step S123: Connect the new point to each vertex that makes up the hole to generate a new edge; update the triangulated network according to the new edge, and repeat the above process until all points are inserted into the mesh.

[0111] Preferably, this embodiment can generate a high-quality Delaunay triangulation network through point-by-point insertion and checking of empty circle characteristics, ensuring that the circumscribed circle of each triangle does not contain other points and the minimum angle is the largest. It can adapt to point sets of different shapes and sizes, and through dynamic updating and optimization, it can handle complex boundary conditions and irregular point sets to generate a triangulated network that meets the requirements. The point-by-point insertion method has high efficiency when processing large-scale point sets, and can generate high-quality triangulated networks in a shorter time. It is particularly important for application scenarios that require rapid generation of meshes, such as real-time simulation and dynamic analysis. It is not only applicable to static point sets, but also can adapt to changes in point sets through dynamic updating and optimization. For example, when the point set changes, the high quality of the mesh can be maintained by reinserting new points and updating the triangulated network.

[0112] In summary, this embodiment can generate a high-quality, adaptable, efficient and flexible triangulated network. This method has broad application prospects in the fields of geometric modeling, numerical calculation and dynamic analysis.

[0113] Further, if Figure 4 As shown, the process of comparing the predicted flow field with the CFD simulation result in step S2 specifically includes the following steps:

[0114] Step S21: Design a graph convolutional neural network model, which consists of multiple graph convolution blocks. Each convolution block contains two-step graph convolution layers and two-step smoothing layers. The last 1x1 convolution layer converts the node features into predicted velocity fields and pressure fields.

[0115] Step S22: The graph convolutional neural network model is trained by minimizing the mean absolute error loss function, using the Adam optimizer to update the parameters, and adjusting the hyperparameters according to the results of the validation set during the training process;

[0116] Among them, the loss function expression is:

[0117] L=λ1L MAE +λ2L MSE +λ3L SSIM +λ4L grad

[0118] The meaning of each part is as follows: MAE Represents the mean absolute error (Mean Absolute Error), which is used to measure the average absolute error between the predicted velocity field and pressure field and the true value; the calculation formula is:

[0119]

[0120] In the formula, y i represents the true value, represents the predicted value, and N represents the number of samples;

[0128] Step S23: Calculate the absolute error between the predicted value and the true value; compare the predicted flow field with the CFD simulation result.

[0129] Preferably, the architecture of the convolutional neural network model of this embodiment is composed of multiple graph convolution blocks, each of which contains a two-step graph convolution layer and a two-step smoothing layer. The graph convolution layer first calculates new edge features through edge convolution, then aggregates these features to the nodes, and finally calculates new node features using the updated node features and edge information. The smoothing layer is used to reduce the spatial variability of node features. The model also uses a jump connection to directly connect the coordinate information of the input layer to each smoothing layer to provide spatial information for edge convolution. Finally, a 1×1 convolution layer (equivalent to a fully connected layer) is used to convert the node features into predicted velocity fields and pressure fields. Training is performed by minimizing the mean absolute error (MAE) loss function, using the Adam optimizer to update parameters, and adjusting hyperparameters according to the performance of the validation set during training. After training, the generalization ability of the model is evaluated using the test set, and the MAE between the predicted value and the true value is calculated. In addition, by comparing the predicted flow field with the CFD simulation results, the prediction effect of the model is intuitively evaluated, thereby verifying the accuracy and robustness of the model under different shapes and conditions (for specific principles, refer to the attached Figure 5 ).

[0130] In summary, the present embodiment designs a graph convolutional neural network model, especially a structure including multiple graph convolution blocks, which can effectively capture and process complex data features. Each convolution block includes a two-step graph convolution layer and a two-step smoothing layer, which helps the model to retain local features and smooth global features when processing flow field data, thereby improving the accuracy of prediction. The Adam optimizer is an adaptive learning rate optimization algorithm that can dynamically adjust the learning rate of each parameter according to the first-order moment estimation and second-order moment estimation of the gradient. This adaptive adjustment can accelerate the convergence speed of the model, reduce oscillation during training, and improve training efficiency. The mean absolute error (MAE) is a commonly used loss function, which is particularly suitable for processing data sets with more outliers. By minimizing MAE, the model can better capture the nonlinear relationship in the data and improve the accuracy of prediction. During the training process, verification and adjustment of hyperparameters through the validation set can ensure that the performance of the model on different data sets is stable and has good generalization ability. It helps to avoid overfitting of the model and improve the robustness of the model. Comparing the predicted flow field with the CFD simulation results can intuitively evaluate the prediction effect of the model. This comparison helps to identify deficiencies in the model and further optimize the model.

[0131] Further, if Figure 6 As shown, the process of designing the graph convolutional neural network model in step S21 specifically includes the following steps:

[0134] Step S213: Use a 1x1 convolutional layer to convert node features into predicted flow fields and pressure fields;

[0135] The 1x1 convolutional layer is equivalent to a fully connected layer.

[0136] Preferably, each graph convolution block in this embodiment includes a two-step graph convolution layer and a two-step smoothing layer. It is helpful to perform effective feature extraction and information propagation on graph structure data. By calculating new edge features through edge convolution and fusing these new edge features to the nodes, the expressiveness of node features can be enhanced, so that the model can better capture the complex relationships in the graph structure. Using updated node features and edge information to calculate new node features helps the model gradually converge to a more accurate feature representation. After directly connecting the coordinates of the input layer to each smoothing layer, spatial information is provided for edge convolution, which can enhance the sensitivity of the model to spatial position information, thereby improving the accuracy of prediction. Using a 1x1 convolution layer to convert node features into predicted flow fields and pressure fields is equivalent to a fully connected layer. The main function of the 1x1 convolution layer is to adjust the number of channels between network layers, control the complexity of the model, and can be used for dimensionality reduction and reduce the amount of computation. Through the 1x1 convolution layer, the model can effectively adjust the network structure while maintaining feature quality, avoid overfitting, and improve the generalization ability of the model.

[0137] Therefore, through the iterative update of graph convolution blocks, node features and edge information, as well as the dimensionality reduction and channel adjustment of 1x1 convolution layers, effective processing and feature extraction of complex graph structure data are achieved, thereby improving the prediction accuracy and generalization ability of the model.

[0141] Step S33: Analyze the calculation results and verify through CFD software simulation and experimental verification whether the various parameters of the adjusted swirl spray gun are qualified. If not, continue to adjust the swirl spray gun parameters.

[0142] Preferably, in this embodiment, the graph convolutional neural network model outputs the velocity components and pressures in three directions of each node, and reconstructs the velocity field and pressure field of the entire flow field. Therefore, by drawing data images such as streamlines, velocity vector diagrams and pressure distribution diagrams, the distribution of velocity and pressure can be revealed, which helps to identify phenomena such as flow separation, reattachment, and vortex formation, and comprehensively analyze the flow characteristics of the spray gun. In addition to the overall flow field analysis, the local physical characteristics of the swirl blade surface can also be analyzed in detail. By integrally calculating the pressure and shear stress on the swirl blade surface, the drag and lift values ​​can be obtained. Further analysis can reveal the local flow characteristics and complex fluid mechanics behavior of the swirl blade area by calculating data such as pressure gradient force and vortex. By comprehensively and in detail analyzing the flow characteristics and local physical characteristics of the swirl spray gun, the optimization of the swirl spray gun structure can be scientifically guided. For example, by adjusting the shape and angle of the swirl blade, flow separation and vortex can be reduced or eliminated; by improving the structural parameters of the swirl blade, the tangential momentum can be strengthened, and the stirring efficiency of the spray gun can be improved; in areas with higher shear stress, more wear-resistant blade materials can be selected to reduce blade wear. These measures are designed to make the flow more uniform, reduce energy loss and material stress concentration, thereby improving the overall performance of the spray gun and extending its life. In addition, the spray gun design is continuously improved through numerical simulation and experimental verification to ensure that the optimization measures are effective in actual applications, and ultimately achieve the goal of performance improvement and life extension (for specific principles, please refer to the attached Figure 8 ).

[0143] In summary, this embodiment not only improves the efficiency and performance of the swirl spray gun design, but also significantly improves the accuracy and efficiency of prediction through deep learning technology, reducing the number of experiments and costs.

The drawn pressure distribution diagram is identified, and the area on the surface of the swirl blade is selected for integral calculation to obtain the pressure and shear stress on the blade surface. It is essential to calculate the drag and lift values ​​of the swirl spray gun. In addition, the pressure gradient force and vortex data are calculated to obtain the local flow characteristics and complex fluid mechanics behavior of the swirl blade area. The accuracy of the model can be verified and the design can be further optimized by comparing and analyzing numerical simulation and experimental data. Calculating vorticity and pressure gradient can reveal phenomena such as eddy currents and separations in the flow field, as well as local physical characteristics such as pressure center and velocity peak. It is very important to understand the flow characteristics and local physical characteristics of the swirl spray gun. The flow field prediction method based on graph convolutional neural network can predict the pressure coefficient within a few seconds, which is 3 orders of magnitude faster than CFD simulation. This embodiment can quickly evaluate the aerodynamic force, velocity and pressure field of the fluid flowing around the object, and provide fast feedback for design optimization. The effect of pressure gradient on flow is significant, especially in the field of airfoil separation flow control. By introducing an improved model of the pressure gradient, the location of the separation zone and the wall pressure can be predicted more accurately. This improved model can improve the accuracy of the calculation results and thus optimize the design.

[0149] In summary, this embodiment can effectively reveal the flow characteristics and local physical characteristics of the swirl spray gun, optimize the design and improve the computational efficiency by acquiring and analyzing the flow field velocity and pressure data, combining the comparison of numerical simulation and experimental data, and utilizing advanced technologies such as graph convolutional neural networks.

[0177] By analyzing the distribution of pressure gradient force and vorticity, it can be determined whether the flow is undergoing separation, reattachment, or vortex formation.

[0178] Preferably, the present embodiment can obtain the total pressure on the blade surface by identifying and selecting the surface area of ​​the swirl blade and performing integral calculation on the pressure distribution. It is helpful to accurately calculate the stress of the blade under different pressures, thereby providing data support for subsequent structural design and optimization. The calculation of shear stress is achieved by solving the moment and swirl blade surface. The calculation formula of shear stress involves the moment of inertia of the section and the coordinates. The accurate calculation of the parameters is crucial to understanding the deformation and stress distribution of the blade under stress. The calculation of shear stress involves the expressions of forces F1 and F2, which are derived by equations, and finally the expression of shear stress is obtained. It ensures that the calculation of shear stress is based on accurate mechanical principles and mathematical models. The calculation of shear stress also involves the use of the moment of inertia of the section, which helps to more accurately evaluate the deformation and stress distribution of the blade under stress. According to the integral results of pressure and shear stress, the drag and lift values ​​of the swirl spray gun are calculated. It is helpful to evaluate the performance of the swirl spray gun under actual working conditions and provide a basis for optimized design. The introduction of the surface tension coefficient further considers the influence of the liquid surface tension on the drag and lift, which is particularly important in practical applications, especially in applications involving liquid flow and injection. Through the above steps, the accurate calculation of the surface pressure and shear stress of the swirl blade can be achieved, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the design. The calculation results can be directly applied to structural design and optimization, reducing experimental cost and time, and improving design efficiency.
