Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of flexible fiber water washing transportation simulation, and relates to a flexible fiber fluid-solid coupling method. Background Art
[0002] The large-production-capacity flexible fiber water transportation technology is one of the key technologies for producing green fibers. It has the advantages of high efficiency, large capacity, strong adaptability, and small environmental impact, and is of extremely important significance to the new energy strategy. However, the forces acting on flexible fibers in the flow field are complex, and their motion postures are unpredictable. During the transportation process, due to the interaction between fibers and fluids and the mutual contact and collision between fibers, the fiber morphology changes, such as bending, winding, and agglomeration. This directly affects the quality of fiber products and poses a risk of production line stoppage, seriously affecting production efficiency and cost.
[0003] Flexible fibers are prone to bending, winding, entanglement, and loosening during the water washing transportation process, which cannot be observed during the actual production preparation process. It is necessary to show through simulation results the tendency of flexible fibers to bend, wind, entangle, and loosen during the water washing transportation process. However, currently in actual production, there is a lack of theoretical guidance, and it is difficult to study the flow evolution behavior.
[0004] To solve the above problems, the literature (Influence of the flow field state in the wool conveying pipe on the opening treatment effect of fiber bundles [J]. Advanced Textile Technology, 2024, 32(3): 29-37. DOI: 10.19398 / j.att.202308011) used the fluid simulation software Cradle CFD to perform a coupled calculation on the movement process of fiber bundles in the flow field of the wool conveying pipe, compared the distribution characteristics of the flow field at different positions of the wool conveying pipe and the fiber movement trajectories at different times, and explored the opening mechanism of fiber bundles during transportation in the wool conveying pipe and the influence of the flow field state in the wool conveying pipe on fiber movement. However, this simulation method does not consider the mechanical properties of flexible fibers and cannot accurately correct the coupled model, and the simulation results are not persuasive.
[0005] Therefore, it is of great significance to study a flexible fiber fluid-solid coupling method to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problems existing in the prior art and provide a flexible fiber fluid-solid coupling method.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0008] A flexible fiber fluid-structure interaction method is applied to the dynamic simulation of the motion evolution characteristics of the water-washing transportation of flexible fibers with a large aspect ratio. The large aspect ratio means that the aspect ratio is 100 - 500. For example, for Lyocell short-cut fibers, the length is commonly 6 - 50 mm (usually 38 mm in enterprise production and preparation), and the fiber diameter is commonly 60 - 100 μm. The flexible fiber fluid-structure interaction method includes the following steps:
[0009] Step 1: Construct a fluid model containing flexible fibers based on the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method;
[0010] Step 2: Describe the flexible fibers by using the Discrete Element Method (DEM) combined with the sphere-column unit model to obtain multiple fiber sphere-column units with the same length. The multiple fiber sphere-column units with the same length are connected and combined to form a flexible fiber model;
[0011] Step 3: Introduce the porosity of the fluid phase and establish a mass control volume equation containing the fluid and the flexible fibers; introduce the interaction force between the fluid and the flexible fibers into the source term of the force in the momentum control volume equation to obtain a momentum control volume equation containing the source term of the flexible fiber acting force;
[0012] Step 4: The fluid model containing flexible fibers and the flexible fiber model are mutually interpolated and coupled through the trilinear method in the finite element volume method. The fluid model containing flexible fibers and the flexible fiber model together constitute a two-way fluid-structure interaction system; there is an interaction force between the flexible fiber model and the fluid model in the two-way fluid-structure interaction system; the coupling simulation process is as Figure 1 shown; through the divided finite element mesh, the flow field is spatially discretized, and trilinear interpolation is used to transfer data between the fluid mesh nodes and the discrete particle positions. The steps are as follows:
[0013] Through the divided finite element mesh, the flow field is spatially discretized, and trilinear interpolation is used to transfer data between the fluid mesh nodes and the discrete particle positions. The steps are as follows:
[0014] ① Locate the fluid mesh unit where the fiber is located, and locate the grid unit it is in according to the fiber coordinates The vertex coordinates of the unit are to , and find the eight vertex coordinates of the unit and their corresponding fluid variable velocities;
[0015] ② Calculate the distance between each finite element mesh node and the particle center position. The relative distances (weight coefficients) in each direction are:
[0016] ;
[0017] Among them, , and calculate in the same way.
[0018] ③Vertex weight calculation: The weight of each vertex is the product of the weight coefficients in three directions. For vertex , its weight calculation formula is:
[0019] ;
[0020] ④According to the trilinear interpolation formula, the values of the eight vertices of the grid are weighted and summed to obtain the interpolation result at the fiber position. Let the values of the eight vertices be , and the interpolation formula is:
[0021] ;
[0022] Expanding it gives:
[0023] ;
[0024] Among them, is the coordinate is the weight value of the vertex;
[0025] is the coordinate of the vertex.
[0026] In the two-way coupling, the fluid variables at time t are interpolated to the fiber position, and the force on the fiber also needs to be fed back to the fluid grid. At this time, the interpolation weight is also determined by the weight of the trilinear interpolation. The force of each particle will be distributed to the surrounding eight nodes, and the force received by each node is the fiber force multiplied by the corresponding weight to obtain the interpolation result at the fiber position. Subsequently, at time t + 1, time t + 2, time t + 3... until the calculation time is reached.
[0027] Step 5: Use the two-way fluid-structure coupling system to simulate and physically experiment on the motion evolution form of a single flexible fiber in the flow field to obtain the minimum bending amount of the flexible fiber at any time (i.e., the bending distance between the two endpoints when the amplitude displacement of the flexible fiber is the largest) and the maximum displacement amount and the minimum displacement amount of the end point of the flexible fiber, and then calculate the indexes for evaluating the interaction force between the fluid and the flexible fiber, namely the bending degree of the flexible fiber in the flow field and the amplitude of the flexible fiber in the flow field;
[0028] In the simulation process, the motion posture animation of the flexible fiber in the flow field is decomposed into frames at 0.001 s and saved. Through image processing technology, the value of the minimum bending amount is measured, and it is substituted into the following formula (1) to obtain the value of the bending degree of the flexible fiber in the flow field; through image processing technology, each frame result is measured to obtain the maximum value and the minimum Value, substitute its two values into the following formula (2) to obtain the central axis of the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field , on the central axis of the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field , measure the displacement of the flexible fiber in the time series (at each continuous time interval) , substitute it into the following formula (3) to obtain the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field.
[0029] Step 6: Introduce a drag force model correction factor into the source term of the force in the momentum control volume equation , correct the strength of the force between the fluid and the flexible fiber through the evaluation index in Step 5, and perform simulations according to the number of fibers in the actual working condition, so as to judge the bending and winding, entanglement and loosening of the flexible fiber;
[0030] The calculation formula for the curvature of the flexible fiber flow field is as follows:
[0031] (1);
[0032] Among them, S is the curvature of the flexible fiber flow field, is the initial length of the flexible fiber, with the unit of mm, is the minimum bending amount of the flexible fiber at any moment, with the unit of mm;
[0033] The calculation formula for the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field is as follows:
[0034] (2);
[0035] (3);
[0036] Among them, is the central axis of the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field, with the unit of mm, is the maximum displacement of the end point of the flexible fiber, with the unit of mm, is the minimum displacement of the end point of the flexible fiber, with the unit of mm, is the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field in the time series (the time series is the simulation time interval, and the simulation time interval in the present invention is set to 0.001 s), with the unit of mm, is the displacement of the flexible fiber in the time series, with the unit of mm.

[0326] The coupling simulation process is as follows Figure 1 shown. A 90° straight pipe model is established in a 3D modeling software and the stp file is saved. The geometric model file is imported into Spaceclaim to extract the fluid domain, and the fluid domain file is saved. Then it is imported into fluent for mesh generation to obtain the fluid model. Set the CFD fluid model parameters, define the fluid domain as water, the inlet condition as velocity inlet, and the outlet as pressure outlet by default. Select the model, and use the SIMPLE method to perform numerical simulation calculations within the given time step, with iterative loops. Define the number of calculation time steps as 1000, the time step as 0.001, and the maximum number of iterations as 20 to perform convergent calculation of the fluid force to obtain the fluid phase velocity field and pressure field information; in the discrete element DEM environment, establish a flexible fiber model, define the flexible fiber model parameters, including physical properties and mechanical properties, solve the fiber dynamics equation, calculate the contact force between fibers, and update the fiber velocity and position.
[0327] Through the divided finite element mesh, the flow field is spatially discretized, and trilinear interpolation is used to transfer data between the fluid mesh nodes and the discrete particle positions. The steps are as follows:
[0328] ① Locate the fluid mesh element where the fiber is located. According to the fiber coordinates locate the mesh element it is in. The vertex coordinates of the element are to , and find the eight vertex coordinates of the element and their corresponding fluid variable velocities;

[0340] In the two-way coupling, the fluid variables at time t are interpolated to the fiber position, and the force on the fiber also needs to be fed back to the fluid grid. At this time, the interpolation weight is also determined by the weight of the trilinear interpolation. The force of each particle will be distributed to the surrounding eight nodes, and the force received by each node is the fiber force multiplied by the corresponding weight to obtain the interpolation result at the fiber position. Subsequently, at time t+1, time t+2, time t+3... until the calculation time is reached, the calculation ends.

[0353] Among them, in the simulation process, the motion posture animation of the flexible fiber in the flow field is decomposed and saved in frames of 0.001 s, and through image processing technology, the minimum bending amount value is measured over the entire time, and substituting it into equation (1) to obtain the value of the curvature of the flexible fiber flow field; by measuring the results of each frame through image processing technology, the maximum value and the minimum Value, substitute its two values into Equation (2) to obtain the central axis of the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field , on the central axis of the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field , measure the displacement of the flexible fiber in the time series (at each continuous time interval) , substitute it into Equation (3) to obtain the amplitude of the flexible fiber flow field. The schematic diagram is as Figure 2 shown.
[0354] The following uses specific embodiments to illustrate a flexible fiber fluid-structure interaction method of the present invention, specifically as follows:
[0355] To further verify the correctness of the model, the motion evolution form of a single flexible fiber flow field is simulated and the experiment is corrected and verified. In the CFD environment, the fluid domain is defined as water, the inlet condition is a velocity inlet, and the flow velocity is 4 m / s. The outlet is defaulted to a pressure outlet. In the DEM environment, the fiber diameter is defined as 60 μm, the fiber length is 38 mm, and the fiber density is 1750 kg / m 3 , the fiber generation speed is 0.05 kg / s, the fiber elastic modulus is 122 MPa, and the fiber Poisson's ratio is 0.3.
[0356] The experimental scheme is as Figure 4 shown. A flexible fiber fluid-structure interaction physical experimental platform is built. The experimental platform consists of a water source 3, an aluminum profile frame 4, a CCD high-definition camera 5, a background board 6, a lighting lamp 7, a water flow meter 8, a universal rotating pipe fixing clip 9, a highly transparent acrylic hair conveying pipe 10, and a recovery tank 11. Among them, the size of the aluminum profile frame 4 is 400 mm × 400 mm × 400 mm, the specification of the water flow meter 8 is a 4-inch thread G1 / 2 water flow sensor tachometer, the water pressure resistance is less than 1.75 MPa, the accuracy is ±5%, and the measuring temperature thermistor is 50 kΩ. The background board 7 is matte black to avoid the wall reflection interfering with the shooting effect of the fiber flow field. The designed experimental conditions are the same as the numerical simulation calculation conditions. In order to prevent air from entering the pipeline during the experiment and affecting the fiber flow change, the pipeline interface is sealed with waterproof raw tape.
[0357] When performing numerical simulation calculations of flexible fiber fluid-structure interaction, by changing the drag model correction factor of the interaction source in the momentum equation over a large range, a large number of numerical simulation calculations are carried out, and the values of the evaluation indexes of the mutual force of the fiber flow field, the curvature and the amplitude, are made to approximate the values obtained from the experiment as much as possible. Through continuous simulation calculations, when the drag model correction factor is obtained, the experimental and numerical simulation results are relatively close, and the error is within 5%. Moreover, in the experiment and numerical simulation calculations, the motion characteristics and evolution behaviors of the fiber in the flow field are relatively consistent. The comparison between the physical experiment and the numerical simulation process is as Figure 5As shown; under different drag force model correction factors, the comparison results of the amplitude of the evaluation index between physical experiments and numerical simulations are as Figure 6 shown. Under different drag force correction factors, the comparison results of the curvature of the evaluation index between physical experiments and numerical simulations are as Figure 7 shown.
[0358] Therefore, when the drag force model correction factor is adopted in the present invention, numerical simulation of the evolution characteristics of flexible fiber flow field during fiber transportation is carried out. Under the working conditions of fiber generation speed of 0.05 kg / s and water flow speed of 2 m / s, during the transportation process, the fiber evolution behaviors at different times are as Figure 8 shown. It can be seen from the figure that the fiber starts to flow vertically along the water. When passing through the 90° elbow group, due to the change in the flow field form, the fiber undergoes irregular bending and deformation evolution, laminar flow and turbulent flow phenomena occur in the flow field, and the fiber is involved in the turbulent flow and undergoes winding and knotting behaviors.
[0359] The present invention realizes the simulation visualization of the flexible fiber transportation process in production. Given the fiber generation speed of 0.05 kg / s and the water flow speed of 4 m / s under the initial conditions, simulation is carried out, and model correction and experimental verification are carried out. The actual production and preparation process of fiber water washing and transportation is simulated and reproduced, providing theoretical guidance for studying the phenomena of fiber bending, winding, entanglement and opening in the flow field. It shows that the present invention can be well applied to the research of engineering problems in actual production transportation, has certain academic significance and engineering value, and is expected to promote wider application in the industry and promote the development of industry towards science and efficiency.
