Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of fluid mixing and stirring, and specifically relates to a fluid mixing and stirring device and method based on hyperchaotic mapping. Background Art
[0002] The thorough mixing of different types of liquids is an indispensable part of the production process in many industries such as metallurgy, chemical industry, and wastewater treatment. However, existing stirring devices still face many challenges in actual industrial applications. For example, when stirring mixed liquids with high viscosity and low Reynolds numbers, there is a problem of low mixing efficiency.
[0003] In order to solve the problem of low mixing efficiency, the main means at present is to increase the stirring speed. However, in the process of increasing the stirring speed, there are the following difficulties: (1) The stirring paddle has to withstand a large bending moment, and the material requirements for the stirring paddle are relatively stringent; (2) When a low-Reynolds number mixed liquid with high viscosity is stirred at a uniform speed, the liquid in the tank is in a laminar state, and stable symmetrical flow fields such as "annular isolation zone" and "column reflux" will be generated near the upper and lower parts of the stirring paddle. The existence of symmetrical flow fields will lead to uneven mixing of the stirred materials, low mixing efficiency, poor heat transfer effect, and huge energy consumption; (3) When dealing with shear-sensitive polymer materials, high-speed stirring will destroy the internal molecular structure.
[0004] In addition, most existing stirring devices are of an integrated type, which is not conducive to modularization, and the disassembly, assembly and maintenance of the entire device are relatively difficult.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] The technical solution of the present invention is now further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0015] like Figure 1 The present embodiment proposes a fluid mixing and stirring device based on hyperchaotic mapping, which mainly includes: a PLC, a chaotic stirring module and a monitoring and control module. The PLC generates a series of strong random values, normalizes these strong random values to a certain applicable range, and finally combines the normalized values with the stirring speed and stirring position of the chaotic stirring module to achieve the effect of chaotic stirring.
[0016] Now let's further explain PLC.
[0017] The host computer 11 in the monitoring and control module is connected to the PLC 8 via the EtherCAT communication protocol network port. The host computer 11 is used to program the two-dimensional hyperchaotic mapping shown in formula (1) in the programming software of the PLC 8: ; In the formula, n is a natural number, indicating the current number of iterations. and Respectively represent n The mapping state after the iteration determines the rotation speed and position of the stirring unit, that is, the mapping state determines the rotation speed of the three-blade stirring paddle 18 and the moving distance of the ball screw 6. Represents a control parameter, specifically a parameter that controls dynamic characteristics.
[0018] The hyperchaotic parameters are intercepted from the two-dimensional hyperchaotic map, and the intercepted hyperchaotic parameters are normalized to obtain the normalized hyperchaotic parameters. The hyperchaotic sequence is established using the normalized hyperchaotic parameters, and then the speed and position of the stirring unit are randomly controlled. Specifically: The following normalization equation is used to scale the extracted hyperchaotic parameters to the required sequence diagram: ; in, and They represent the minimum and maximum values in the hyperchaotic sequence respectively, and min and max represent the normalized minimum and maximum dimension ranges.
[0019] The normalized hyperchaotic parameters are stored in the global variable memory built into the PLC 8.
[0020] The normalized hyperchaotic parameters will be converted into instructions recognizable by the servo driver, and iteratively assigned to the speed adjustment function block and the absolute distance movement function block programmed in PLC 8 at specified intervals. The absolute distance movement function block and the speed adjustment function block will convert the hyperchaotic parameters into corresponding pulse signals, which are transmitted to the first servo driver 2 in the positioning control mode and the second servo driver 3 in the speed control mode through the network port respectively. The first servo driver 2 and the second servo driver 3 execute the corresponding pulse signals to drive the servo motors to achieve a hyperchaotic stirring effect.
[0021] Now combined Figure 5 and Figure 6 The chaotic effect produced by this embodiment is described. Generally speaking, the chaotic effect can be expressed by sample entropy, and the higher the complexity of the chaos, the better the chaotic effect, the stronger the randomness, and the more variable the stirring control.
[0022] Figure 5 The calculation process of sample entropy is shown, including: S1: Data preparation: The three-blade impeller 18 is updated using the hyperchaotic parameters, which is expressed as: ; In the formula, represents the total number of samples, represents the rotation speed of the three-blade stirring paddle 18; Indicates N Sub-sampled hyperchaotic parameters; S2: Hyperchaotic parameters Do a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) to get ; In the formula, k Indicates k discrete frequencies; is the hyperchaotic parameter Frequency domain representation after fast Fourier transform; S3: Order ; S4: Calculate the discrete rate according to the following formula : ; S5: Order ; S6: Determine whether the following conditions are met: ; If satisfied, execute S4; if not satisfied, calculate the sample entropy according to the following formula : ; Using sample entropy The probability of a sequence generating a new pattern in a short period of time is measured to verify the high complexity and strong randomness of the two-dimensional hyperchaotic mapping used in this embodiment. The Lyapunov index spectrum of the two-dimensional hyperchaotic mapping is drawn. The Lyapunov index is an important basis for judging whether a chaotic system is chaotic. A two-dimensional system has two Lyapunov indexes (LE 1、 LE 2 ), if one is greater than 0, it means the system is in a chaotic state, and if two are greater than 0, it means the system is in a hyper-chaotic state. At this time, the complexity of the chaotic system will be excellent. Figure 6 As shown in (a), by LE 1 >0,LE 2 > 0, the two Lyapunov exponent parameters (LE 1、 LE 2 ) is greater than zero, which means that the system is in a hyperchaotic state. The system has strong randomness, and the parameters of the hyperchaotic part are obtained through analysis.
[0023] According to the two-dimensional hyperchaotic mapping formula, when ( x 0 , y 0 ) = (1, 0) and aWhen varying in [–3.4, 2.5], the mapping evolution includes periodic, chaotic, and hyperchaotic. a When [–2.7, –2.248], hyperchaos occurs; when a When it varies in [–2.248, –2.03], the mapping is chaotic; when a When it increases to [–2.03, –2.01], a small range of periodic windows is captured; a When it varies in [1.758, 1.882], the mapping has quasi-periodic oscillation behavior; when a The mapping is chaotic when varying in [1.892, 2.5], embedding two independent periodic windows [1.99, 2.115] and [2.333, 2.365].
[0024] like Figure 6 As shown in (b) in FIG. 1 , the two-dimensional hyperchaotic mapping used in this embodiment has strong randomness.
[0025] The chaotic speed sequence and chaotic liquid level sequence generated by the two-dimensional hyperchaotic mapping proposed in this embodiment are as follows: Figure 7 shown.
[0026] Specific processing such as Figure 8 As shown, the first servo driver 2 in the positioning control mode first adjusts the values of the position loop and the speed loop, as well as their proportional gain, according to the motion mode, load inertia, acceleration and other conditions of the external load machinery. The frequency of the pulse input by the PLC 8 determines the magnitude of the rotation speed, the number of pulses determines the rotation angle, and the signal is converted into the corresponding position command. During the operation of the remaining two loops, the output current of the driver to the motor is finally detected by the Hoff device, and the negative feedback is given to the current setting for PID adjustment, so that the output current is close to equal to the set current, so that the stirring paddle reaches the effect of the set position. The second servo driver 3 in the speed control mode first appropriately adjusts the speed gain and speed integral, controls the rotation speed by the frequency of the pulse, and during the operation of the remaining current loop, the output current of the driver to the motor is also detected by the Hoff device, and the negative feedback is given to the current setting for PID adjustment, so that the output current is close to equal to the set current, so that the stirring paddle reaches the effect of the set speed. The chaotic stirring module is now further explained.

By using these limit signals, the origin of the stirring shaft can be effectively found, and the dangerous stirring position can be stopped in time.
[0030] In this embodiment, a side-blowing swirl spray gun 17 is provided on the side wall of the stirring tank 14, and a bottom-blowing swirl spray gun 15 is provided at the bottom of the stirring tank 14. The air inlet ends of the side-blowing swirl spray gun 17 and the bottom-blowing swirl spray gun 15 are respectively connected to corresponding air inlet pipes, and an electric regulating valve 22 is provided above each air inlet pipe. The electric regulating valve 22 is connected to the PLC 8, and the airflow blowing amount is adjusted by real-time frequency conversion through the host computer 11.
[0031] The chaotic stirring module proposed in this embodiment can realize the current stirring speed adjustment, the current stirring liquid level adjustment and the swirl spray gun control. Specifically, it includes: The first servo driver 2 is controlled by the PLC 8 to drive the first servo motor 1, and the first servo motor 1 operates the ball screw 6 to make the three-blade stirring paddle 18 reach the required stirring liquid level. The second servo driver 3 drives the second servo motor 4, and the second servo motor 4 drives the three-blade stirring paddle 18 to stir the fluid. The three-blade stirring paddle 18 continues to stir the fluid at the current liquid level and the current speed for 6 seconds so as to smoothly reach the specified position.
[0032] This embodiment uses the negative limit signal 7, the origin limit signal 12, and the positive limit signal 13 to limit the movable range of the three-blade stirring paddle 18. The PLC 8 drives the second servo motor 4 through the second servo driver 3 to move the three-blade stirring paddle 18 to generate chaotic displacement within the range.
[0033] In this embodiment, the upper computer 11 controls the electric regulating valve 22 to adjust the closure of the current air inlet end and the size of the air flow.
[0034] The monitoring and control module is now further explained.
