Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of mechanical joint surfaces, and particularly relates to a modeling method for theoretical calculation of contact thermal resistance. Background Art

[0002] During the manufacturing process of machine tools or various mechanical equipment, a large number of components are assembled through bolts or other connecting parts, and the contact surface between the assembled parts is called the joint surface. During the working process of mechanical equipment, each component, each part, and the entire mechanical equipment will be under the action of various heat sources, and the whole machine will generate a temperature field and thermal deformation, thereby affecting the overall performance of the mechanical structure. During the design stage, the contact thermal resistance will affect the temperature transfer between joint surfaces. For example Figure 1 As shown, there will be a temperature step between joint surfaces. Accurate thermal characteristic analysis between joint surfaces is very crucial for product design, and it is particularly important for improving the stability and machining accuracy of machine tools.

[0003] In the research on the contact thermal resistance of joint surfaces, for the expression of the contact state of micro-protrusions, the currently more commonly used ones are the W-A contact model based on statistical parameters and the M-B model based on the fractal theory of rough surfaces (two-dimensional fractal theory) and Hertz contact theory. Currently, there are still large errors in calculating the contact thermal resistance between joint surfaces using existing contact thermal resistance models. The main reasons are as follows: The existing calculation models for the contact thermal resistance of joint surfaces do not consider the influence of the deformation of the micro-protrusion matrix. The mutual interaction of micro-protrusions between joint surfaces generates a large influence on the calculation of contact thermal resistance due to matrix deformation, which cannot be ignored. The relationship between the cross-sectional area and the actual contact area cannot be accurately expressed, resulting in inaccurate actual area results obtained from the final calculation. These factors all lead to a large difference between the calculated value of the contact thermal resistance of joint surfaces and the actual data. This method uses the modified three-dimensional fractal theory instead of the two-dimensional fractal theory to express the surface topography of micro-protrusions, which is closer to the actual situation, and uses the L-L contact model to better express the area relationship of micro-protrusions, improving the accuracy of theoretical calculation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present invention proposes a contact thermal resistance modeling and prediction method based on the L-L contact model and the modified three-dimensional fractal theory to solve the problem that the theoretical calculation value of the contact thermal resistance between joint surfaces differs greatly from the actual value, so as to improve the accuracy of the theoretical calculation value of the contact thermal resistance. This method is based on the modified three-dimensional fractal theory, considering the accurate relationship between the actual contact area and the cross-sectional area of micro-protrusions, and proposes a method to improve the theoretical calculation effect of the contact thermal resistance between joint surfaces. The flow chart is as Figure 2 shown, and the specific implementation steps are as follows:

[0005] Step 1: Considering the deformation factors of asperities on the joint surface, express the contact deformation of asperities according to the modified three-dimensional fractal theory, obtain the critical cross-sectional areas of asperities in the elastic, elastoplastic, and plastic stages, and determine the size distribution function of micro-contact points.

[0006] Step 1.1: Analyze the contact deformation of asperities using the modified three-dimensional fractal theory. The contact state of asperities is as Figure 3 shown, and the contact deformation is expressed by the amplitude difference between the wave peaks and wave valleys of the three-dimensional function.

[0007] Step 1.2: By analyzing the critical deformation of asperities in the three stages (elastic, elastoplastic, and plastic), obtain the critical cross-sectional areas of the three stages and determine the size distribution function of micro-contact points.

[0008] Step 2: Determine the integration interval based on the maximum cross-sectional area of a single asperity. Use the L-L contact model to express the relationship between the cross-sectional areas and the true area of a single asperity in the three stages (elastic, elastoplastic, and plastic), and then integrate to obtain the total true contact area and total normal load between the joint surfaces.

[0009] Step 2.1: Determine the maximum cross-sectional area of a single asperity, judge which stages the asperity deformation between the joint surfaces includes, and determine the subsequent integration interval.

[0010] Step 2.2: Establish the relationship expression between the cross-sectional areas of asperities and the true contact area in the three stages.

[0011] Step 2.3: Integrate to obtain the total true contact area and total normal load between the joint surfaces.

[0012] Step 3: Establish the relationship between the total normal load and the contact area of the joint surface and the mathematical expression of the total contact thermal resistance of the joint surface. Derive the contact thermal conductance between the joint surfaces in the three stages of asperities, and obtain the reciprocal of the result to get the contact thermal resistance result.

[0013] Step 3.1: Use the mathematical expression to establish the relationship between the total normal load and the contact area of the joint surface.

[0014] Step 3.2: Integrate with the integration interval determined in Step 2 to obtain the mathematical expression of the contact thermal conductance between the joint surfaces.

[0015] Step 3.3: Take the reciprocal of the contact thermal conductance between the joint surfaces to obtain the mathematical expression of the contact thermal resistance.

[0016] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: For the theoretical calculation problem of the contact thermal resistance between joint surfaces, considering the asperity deformation and the L-L contact model, by establishing a theoretical calculation model of the contact thermal resistance, the accuracy of the theoretical calculation of the contact thermal resistance is improved, providing a basis for subsequent accurate finite element simulation.

[0023] Step 1: Considering the deformation factors of the asperities on the joint surface, the contact deformation of the asperities is characterized according to the modified three-dimensional fractal theory, and the critical cross-sectional areas of the asperities in the elastic, elastoplastic, and plastic stages are obtained, and the size distribution function of the micro contact points is determined.

[0024] Step 1.1: Analyze the contact deformation of the asperities using the modified three-dimensional fractal theory. The contact state of the asperities is as Figure 3 shown, and the contact deformation is expressed by the amplitude difference between the wave peaks and wave valleys of the three-dimensional function;

[0025] The contact deformation of the asperities is expressed as

[0026]

[0027] where δ is the contact deformation of a single asperity on the surface of the joint surface, D is the fractal dimension of the surface of the joint surface, G is the fractal scale coefficient of the surface of the joint surface, is a parameter related to the frequency density, and r' is the radius of the cross-sectional area of a single asperity.

[0028] Step 1.2: By analyzing the critical deformations of the three stages (elastic, elastoplastic, and plastic) of the asperity deformation, the critical cross-sectional areas of the three stages are obtained and the size distribution function of the micro contact points is determined.

The L-L contact model can more accurately express the relationship between the true contact area and the cross-sectional area after asperity contact compared to the commonly used template function. The difference between the two is as Figure 4 shown.
