Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pump valve optimization design, in particular to a high-pressure diaphragm pump one-way valve structure multi-objective optimization method based on digital twinning. BACKGROUND

[0002] As one of the key mechanical equipment for long-distance transportation of slurry pipeline, the reciprocating high-pressure diaphragm pump has the advantages of high lift, corrosion resistance, high pressure resistance, etc., and is suitable for transporting complex solid-liquid two-phase medium flow, and has a wide application prospect in the fields of coal, chemical industry, metallurgy and other industrial production. As the mechanical component that moves most frequently in the high-pressure diaphragm pump, the one-way valve has a good one-way flow function, which ensures the normal operation of the pump body liquid suction and liquid discharge. However, due to the influence of the cavity solid-liquid two-phase flow movement, the stress on the structure of the one-way valve is complex and variable, which leads to the occurrence of valve core sticking and breakdown. Since the structure damage is the main factor leading to the failure of the one-way valve, a good structure design can ensure better applicability in harsh working environment and prolong the service life. The traditional pump valve structure optimization design is completed by analyzing the optimal group from multiple experimental groups.

[0003] However, the traditional pump valve structure optimization design method not only has the disadvantages of long time consumption and high design cost, but also has certain safety hazards for such special industrial equipment. The existing solutions mostly use multiple simulation experiments to explore the influence of different structure parameter changes on the performance to propose an optimization scheme, ignoring the coupling effect between parameters and not finding the optimal structure parameter combination. Therefore, by constructing a high-fidelity digital twinning model integrating simulation, mechanism and agent model, considering the coupling effect between structure parameters, and obtaining the optimal structure parameter combination through a multi-objective optimization design method, a structure optimization scheme with guidance is provided, which can greatly improve the design efficiency and reduce the experimental test cost.
