Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of wave-breaking plates for liquid tank trucks, and in particular to an L-shaped wave-breaking plate and a design optimization method thereof. Background Art

[0002] During the process of turning, emergency braking and obstacle avoidance, the liquid in the tank will sway violently due to inertia, thus affecting driving safety. In order to effectively suppress the swaying of the liquid in the tank and reduce the impact of the liquid on the head, partition plate and cylinder, a certain number of wave-breaking plates are generally installed in the tank of the tank truck. At present, the most widely used wave-breaking plates are flat wave-breaking plates and butterfly wave-breaking plates. Such wave-breaking plates can effectively reduce the swaying degree of the liquid in the tank under emergency braking conditions and reduce the longitudinal impact force of the liquid. However, when the tank is not fully loaded and is in a turning condition, especially for large tank trucks, studies have shown that when the filling ratio is greater than 0.5, its roll stability is poor, and the lateral sway reduction ability of the flat wave-breaking plates and butterfly wave-breaking plates is weak, which cannot effectively suppress the lateral swaying impact of the liquid in the tank, resulting in the tank truck being prone to rollover accidents. Although there are also related technologies that simultaneously set lateral and longitudinal wave-breaking plates in the tank to improve the comprehensive anti-sway ability of the wave-breaking plates, it greatly increases the mass of the tank. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an L-shaped wave-breaking plate to effectively suppress the lateral and longitudinal shaking impact force of the liquid in the tank and meet the design requirements of lightweight whole vehicle.

[0003] On the other hand, with the rapid development of design methods, a variety of modern design methods such as finite element method, multi-objective optimization design method and computer-aided design have been widely used. However, the existing wave-breaking board design methods are still mainly based on the design experience of engineers, lacking a rigorous analysis and research process, and there is no set of standardized optimization design methods. In addition, in the process of wave-breaking board optimization design, there may be mutual constraints between different design evaluation indicators. For example, the lightweight design of wave-breaking boards often comes at the expense of the strength of wave-breaking boards. Therefore, for the multi-objective optimization design problem of wave-breaking boards, it is also urgent to design a comprehensive optimization design method. By establishing a reasonable multi-objective optimization mathematical model and solving the algorithm according to the characteristics of the model, the optimal combination of wave-breaking board design parameters can be obtained through analysis.

[0032] On the other hand, Figure 8As shown, the present invention provides an L-shaped wave-breaking plate design optimization method, which is used to design the L-shaped wave-breaking plate 100 provided by the first aspect of the present invention, and constructs a response surface approximation model of the design variables of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate and the liquid sloshing response of the tank truck through the finite element method and the response surface method, and constructs a mathematical model of the multi-objective optimization problem of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, and uses an improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-III) with an elite strategy to solve the mathematical model to obtain the Pareto optimal solution set, and finally uses the finite element method to perform a fluid-solid coupling experiment to determine the optimal design parameter combination of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate.

[0033] Specifically, the design optimization method of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate 100 includes the following steps: Step 1: parametrically model the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, complete the parametric modeling of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate in SolidWorks and build the geometric model of the tank truck superstructure.

[0034] Step 2: Use the control variable method to conduct a single factor experiment on the design parameters of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, obtain the liquid sloshing response of each design scheme through numerical simulation experiments, analyze the influence of the design parameters on the liquid sloshing response, and preliminarily narrow the value range of each design parameter; The specific process of the numerical simulation experiment is as follows: first, complete the mechanical modeling of the wave-breaking plate and the tank body; then import the model into the mesh processing module of Fluent to complete the mesh division of the tank truck; finally, complete the liquid sloshing experiment of the tank truck during braking and turning in Fluent, and output the peak longitudinal impact force F1 of the liquid during braking, the peak force F2 of the first wave-breaking plate, and the peak roll moment M of the tank truck during turning.

[0035] Step 3, through the Plackett-Burman experiment, the significant factors affecting the longitudinal impact force of the liquid during the braking process of the tank truck, the force on the first wave-breaking board, and the roll moment during the turning process are screened out; According to the Plackett-Burman experiment, the significant factors affecting the longitudinal impact force during the braking process of the tank truck are: the horizontal axis a and the vertical axis b of the elliptical manhole on the longitudinal plate of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, the horizontal offset distance c of the manhole, and the vertical offset distance d of the manhole; the significant factors affecting the force on the first wave-breaking plate during the braking process of the tank truck are: the horizontal axis a and the vertical axis b of the elliptical manhole on the longitudinal plate of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, and the vertical offset distance d of the manhole; the significant factors affecting the roll moment during the turning process of the tank truck are: the horizontal axis a and the vertical axis b of the elliptical manhole on the longitudinal plate of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, and the vertical offset distance d of the manhole.

[0036] Step 4: The steepest climbing test is used to determine the high, medium and low levels of the design parameters of the L-shaped wave-breaking board. According to the standard GB18564.1-2019 and the steepest climbing test, the optimal value ranges of the optimization design variables of the L-shaped wave-breaking board are obtained as follows: a∈[500,800], b∈[400,800], c∈[0,300], d∈[0,390], all in mm.

[0038] Where: is the number of design parameters; is the intercept term; Indicates design parameters The linear effect of Indicates design parameters and The linear interaction effect of Design parameters The quadratic linear effect of represents the random error term.

[0039] Taking a certain model of gasoline tanker of Company A as an example, according to the standards GB 7258-2017 and GB 28373-2012, the peak acceleration of the tanker during normal driving is 6m / s 2 , 4.9m / s 2 The regression equations of the three liquid sloshing responses of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate and the mass equation of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate are as follows: (1) The regression equation for the peak value F1 of the longitudinal impact force of the liquid when the tank truck is braked is:

[0040] (2) The regression equation for the peak force F2 of the first wave-breaking plate when the tank truck is braked is:

[0041] (3) The regression equation of the peak value of the rolling moment M when the tank truck turns is:

[0042] (4) The mass equation of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate is as follows:

If the root mean square error of the regression equation is less than 0.5, the coefficient of variation is less than 10%, and the coefficient of determination is greater than 95%, then execute step 7. Otherwise, check the distribution diagram of the predicted value and the actual value, re-conduct the numerical simulation experiment for the points with large deviations, and return to step 5 until the evaluation indicators of the regression equation meet the above requirements.

[0048] Step 8, according to the established mathematical model of the multi-objective optimization problem of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, the improved non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm NSGA-Ⅲ with elite strategy is used to solve the mathematical model and obtain the Pareto optimal solution set; Step 9: Conduct fluid-solid coupling experiments on the tank truck under braking and turning conditions based on the Pareto optimal solution set, select the design parameter combination in which the overall force of the tank truck body meets the design requirements and all evaluation indicators of the wave-breaking plate reach a relatively low level as the Pareto optimal solution, output the Pareto optimal solution, and use it as the optimal design parameter combination for the L-shaped wave-breaking plate.

[0049] Specifically, the present invention also proposes an improved NSGA-III multi-objective optimization algorithm.

[0050] In order to improve the efficiency of the NSGA-Ⅲ algorithm and avoid falling into local optimality, the present invention proposes a population initialization based on reference points and Latin hypercube sampling and an adaptive crossover and mutation strategy. Individuals associated with each reference point are generated through Latin hypercube sampling, which ensures the randomness and diversity of the initial population while improving the uniformity of the spatial distribution of the initial population individuals. By using simulated binary crossover operators and polynomial mutations, the corresponding distribution index is introduced, and different distribution indexes are adaptively generated according to the distribution of population individuals, and crossover and mutation are performed. The closer the individual is to the ideal point, the closer the offspring generated by its crossover and mutation are to the parent generation. When the population individuals are too dense or the population individuals are farther away from the ideal point, the search range of the population is expanded by generating a smaller distribution index.

[0051] The improved NSGA-Ⅲ algorithm flow chart is as follows: Fig. 9 As shown in the figure, its content is mainly divided into five parts: the first part (step 1-step 2) is to initialize the population based on the reference point and Latin hypercube sampling; the second part (step 3-step 4) is the adaptive normalization of the population individuals, non-dominated sorting and calculation of the number of microhabitats of the reference point; the third part (step 5) is the tournament selection of the population individuals and adaptive crossover and mutation; the fourth part (step 6-step 7) is to adopt the elite strategy to select excellent individuals to enter the next generation; the fifth part (step 8) is to output the Pareto optimal solution set according to the Pareto frontier. The specific steps of the algorithm are as follows: Step 1: Calculate the hyperplane reference point between the design variables and the objective function The hyperplane reference point is calculated as follows: (1) Construct a (M-1)×1 two-dimensional array X.

[0052]

[0053] Where M is the number of research objects; H is the number of segments for each research object.

[0054] (2) Generated by array X The two-dimensional array Y, each element in Y (j=1,2,…,M-1), and must satisfy .

[0055] (3) Update the elements in array Y.

[0056]

[0057] In the formula, .

[0058] (4) Obtain reference points on each research object to form hyperplane reference points.

[0059]

[0060] Step 2: Population initialization (1) Generate the initial optimal solution of the multi-objective optimization problem: Generate a set of experimental populations based on the orthogonal Latin method and calculate the factors in the population m Level The experimental results and K i m ,according to K i m Determining factors m The optimal level of each factor is determined, and the optimal level of each factor constitutes the initial optimal individual and is put into the initial population.

[0061] (2) Population initialization based on reference points and Latin hypercube sampling The individuals generated by Latin hypercube sampling are associated with the hyperplane reference points of the design variables, and only one individual with the closest distance to each reference point is added to the initial population. The above operation is repeated until all reference points have corresponding individuals, completing the population initialization operation.

[0062] Step 3: Calculate the individual objective function values ​​of the initial population, adaptively normalize the individuals, and perform non-dominated sorting on the individuals.

[0086] In summary, in the embodiment of the present invention, taking a certain type of gasoline transport tank truck of enterprise A as an example, the optimal design parameter combination of its L-shaped wave-breaking plate is that the lengths of the horizontal axis a and the vertical axis b of the manhole 160 are 600mm and 700mm respectively, the horizontal offset distance c of the manhole 160 is 300mm, and the vertical offset distance d of the manhole 160 is 160mm; the L-shaped wave-breaking plate after the optimized design is installed, when the filling ratio of the tank truck is 0.6, the peak values ​​of braking and turning acceleration are 6m / s respectively 2 , 4.9m / s 2 The peak longitudinal impact force of the liquid under braking conditions and the peak roll moment during cornering decreased by 40.08% and 15.56% respectively compared to the case without a wave-breaking plate. The roll moment decrease rate increased by 15.14% compared to the original corrugated wave-breaking plate. The weight of the optimized L-shaped wave-breaking plate is 81.39kg. The total weight of the wave-breaking plate of the tank truck equipped with the L-shaped wave-breaking plate is reduced by 36.93% compared to the case when both the transverse and longitudinal wave-breaking plates are installed. Therefore, the optimized L-shaped wave-breaking plate effectively reduces the transverse and longitudinal shaking of the liquid in the tank truck under emergency conditions, improves the driving stability of the vehicle under various working conditions, and makes the vehicle lighter. In addition, the optimization design method of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate provided by the present invention establishes a second-order polynomial regression equation of the wave-breaking plate design parameters and the liquid sloshing response through single-factor experiments, Plackett-Burman experiments, steepest climbing experiments and Box-Behnken experimental designs, and evaluates the regression equation through root mean square error (RMSE), coefficient of variation (CV) and coefficient of determination (R-Square), thereby ensuring the accuracy of the equation. The improved NSGA-Ⅲ algorithm is proposed to solve the mathematical model of the multi-objective optimization problem of the L-shaped wave-breaking plate, and Latin hypercube sampling is combined with reference points to initialize the population, thereby ensuring the diversity and uniform distribution of the initial population individuals; the crossover and variation distribution index is introduced, and the corresponding distribution index is adaptively generated according to the difference between the population individuals and the ideal point to adaptively cross and mutate the population individuals, thereby improving the algorithm's solution efficiency and avoiding the algorithm from falling into the local optimal solution set too early. Finally, based on the Pareto optimal solution set and conducting fluid-solid coupling experiments, the optimal design parameter combination of the wave-breaking plate is determined. The optimization design method improves the design process of the wave-breaking plate and improves the design efficiency.
