Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of ship and ocean engineering manufacturing technology, and particularly relates to a numerical calculation method for high-frequency induction heating forming of a complex curved plate for a ship. BACKGROUND
[0002] The International Maritime Organization (IMO) recently issued a new greenhouse gas emission reduction rule, which will be fully implemented in 2023. Greenhouse gas emissions in ship engineering not only concentrate on the ship sailing process, but also account for a large proportion in the shipbuilding process. The forming of a large number of hyperbolic and multi-curved plates in ships still mainly adopts the traditional water fire bending plate technology with a flame as a heat source. In flame heating, the combustible gas is mostly methane, acetylene and other gases. The composition of combustible gas is different in different shipyards. Even if the flow rate is consistent, the temperature field results obtained are also different, and there is no repeatability and automation capability. The induction heating is used as the temperature input, and the power supply parameters are controllable. The input current is accurately and stably processed by the induction heat source equipment, including the current size and frequency. For green ships and intelligent manufacturing, the input power of high-frequency induction heating can be used, which is more green and environmentally friendly compared with fossil fuels for flame heating.
[0003] In shipbuilding, the hull plate is the main component for ensuring the design lines, water tightness, bearing external pressure and resisting wave impact of the ship. The quality and efficiency of ship curved plate forming are the key links to restrict the overall construction quality of the ship. With the fierce market competition in the shipbuilding industry worldwide and the proposal of the concept of green ships and intelligent construction, the traditional gas flame heating in the ship plate forming process has the disadvantages of low heating efficiency, poor repeatability and being not conducive to automation operation, which is contrary to the industry trend and recent policies and advocacies. High-frequency induction heating shows its unique advantages in the above aspects. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the numerical simulation forming of ship plate induction heating forming. The sail-shaped plate is a common hyperbolic plate for ships, especially the sail-shaped plate used in the bow and stern of the ship, which can ensure the streamline and structural strength of the ship to reduce the wave making resistance and friction resistance during sailing.
[0004] In the shipbuilding process, water fire bending plate is the main forming method for complex curved plates of the ship. The sail-shaped plate is an important type of hyperbolic plate for ships, and the difficulty of its forming lies in the planning of the sail-shaped plate forming processing strategy. The traditional line heating forming strategy planning relies heavily on human experience. If the deformation of the curved plate to be processed does not meet the requirements, the flame heat source needs to be replaced by an induction coil heat source for secondary processing. The above problems still exist. SUMMARY
[0005] The present application provides a numerical calculation method for high-frequency induction heating forming of a complex curved plate for a ship, which overcomes the problem that the traditional line heating forming strategy relies heavily on human experience and requires secondary heating when the requirements are not met.

[0076] Preferably, the ambient temperature is defined as 20℃.
[0077] Specifically, the heat source parameters include: coil, size and shape of magnetic conductor.
[0078] The heat source model is a double-loop homopolar inductor model; the double-loop homopolar inductor model includes a coil and a magnetic conductor, wherein the coil adopts a series coil structure.
[0079] In the embodiment, the design of the heat source model can concentrate energy on the target area, reduce energy loss, and improve the thermal efficiency to more than 80%. At the same time, the uniform magnetic field distribution can avoid local overheating, ensure uniform heating of the whole workpiece, and reduce forging defects; outside the working area, the electromagnetic fields generated by the coils are opposite and offset each other, effectively suppressing electromagnetic wave leakage.
[0080] This feature solves the radiation shielding problem of traditional induction heating equipment and improves the operation safety; through optimizing the energy conversion path, the double-loop design directly converts electrical energy into internal heat energy of the workpiece, and the energy utilization rate is more than 90%, which is 30%-50% lower than the traditional heating method; at the same time, there is no open flame and no waste gas emission, which meets the green production requirements; the mechanism of induction heating forming of the heat source model is as shown in Figure 3
[0081] Specifically, the step of meshing the finite element model of the plate includes:
[0082] S21, as shown in Figure 4a , by setting the distance between the heat source model and the plate finite element model as the upper air and the lower air during heating, defining the part above the upper air as a moving component, and defining the part below the lower air as a stationary component; the moving component and the stationary component are divided into grids of different densities; the moving component includes the heat source model, the upper air domain and the far-field air domain, and the stationary component includes the plate finite element model and the lower air domain; the grids of the upper air domain and the lower air domain are aligned with each other;

[0087] In specific embodiments, the relative movement mode of the heat source model and the plate finite element model mainly has three kinds, which are dynamic loading method, grid re-partitioning method and constraint equation method; the constraint equation method is used in the embodiment to realize the relative movement between the heat source model and the plate finite element model, so as to obtain the grid change distribution of the plate finite element model when the heat source model moves;
[0088] Specifically, in the induction heating process, the continuity of the magnetic vector degree of freedom is maintained by constraining the magnetic vector equation at the interface of the upper and lower air packs, Figure 5 The upper and lower air pack grid states in the initial state are shown, and in order to balance the calculation resources and the calculation accuracy, the air packs at the plate width, the plate length and the position above the inductor are reasonably grid divided and overlapped; meanwhile, the magnetic vector coupling equation between the upper and lower air pack grids in the initial state needs to be deleted at the beginning of the moving heating, Figure 6 The grid diagram of the upper and lower air packs in the induction heating process is shown, the relative movement between the inductor and the workpiece is realized by the constraint equation method, and the magnetic vector coupling equation is re-constrained after movement to realize the continuity of the degrees of freedom between the grids;
[0089] Specifically, the expression of the constraint equation is defined as:
[0090]
[0091] In the formula, U(I) is the degree of freedom of the grid node; N is the number of degrees of freedom in the constraint equation.
[0092] Specifically, the process of calculating the magnetic vector coupling equation is:

[0102]
[0103] wherein φ is a scalar potential;
[0104] S245, according to the formula 6 to formula 9, the expression of the magnetic vector coupling equation is obtained as:
[0105]
[0106] Specifically, the definition of the electromagnetic field boundary condition, the plate force field constraint condition and the thermal boundary condition in step S3 is as follows:
[0107] The electromagnetic field boundary condition includes electromagnetic field vertical boundary condition, electromagnetic field parallel boundary condition, far field boundary condition and electric potential boundary condition; wherein the electromagnetic field vertical boundary condition is X-Y plane, A z =0; Y-Z plane, A x =0; X-Z plane, A y =0; the electromagnetic field parallel boundary condition is X-Y plane, A x =0 and A y =0; Y-Z plane, A x =0 and A z =0; X-Z plane, A y =0 and A z =0; the far field boundary condition is A x =0, A y =0, A z =0; the electric potential boundary condition is the electric potential of the tail section of the inductor is zero;
[0108] The plate force field constraint condition is that along the surface length direction of the plate finite element model, at the positions of 1 / 4B, 1 / 2B and 3 / 4B in the plate width B direction, B is the plate width, a spring unit is set; the spring unit is a LINK180 one-way spring unit, which is constrained to be perpendicular to the plate surface of the plate finite element model, and only releases upward displacement at the upper end, so as to simulate the upward displacement of the plate edge during processing;
[0109] The thermal boundary condition includes air convection heat exchange boundary condition, thermal conduction boundary condition, thermal radiation boundary condition and water cooling heat exchange boundary condition;
[0110] Preferably, the air convection heat exchange boundary condition is as follows:
[0111]
[0112] Wherein, Nu is Nusselt number, Kxx is thermal conductivity, and l is characteristic length;
[0113] The steel plate surface convective heat transfer coefficient HP is calculated. l ) 10 +(Nu t ) 10 ] 1 / 10 Wherein, Nu l is Nusselt number of complete laminar heat exchange, and Nu t is Nusselt number of complete turbulent heat exchange;
[0114] The calculated steel plate surface convective heat transfer coefficient is shown in Table 1:

[0118]
[0119] Wherein, λ is thermal conductivity, T is temperature, ρ is density of material, c is specific heat capacity, t is time, λ, ρ, c and the like change with temperature;
[0120] When the steel plate is not heated, the temperature field of the steel plate and the surrounding is the same, and is the same as the ambient temperature, that is:
[0121] T=T ∞ ,t=0 (14)
[0122] Wherein, T ∞ is ambient temperature;
[0123] The heat radiation boundary condition is as follows:
[0124]
[0125] Wherein, ε is emissivity of material, σ is Stefan-Boltzmann constant, T w is wall temperature, and T ∞ is temperature of environment, and the temperature unit is Kelvin;
[0126] The water cooling heat exchange boundary condition is a numerical simulation heat flow boiling boundary condition, that is, the starting point wall temperature T w(ONB) of bubble state boiling, T w(ONB) is determined according to water temperature, flow rate and heat transfer surface length; the steel plate surface temperature does not exceed T w(ONB) , the water cooling heat exchange boundary condition adopts one-way flow heat exchange, and when the temperature exceeds this temperature, the boundary condition adopts flow bubble state boiling.
[0127] In specific embodiments, the process parameters for processing the plate member include: air gap Agap, heating wire length l, heating wire position, and heating speed v;
[0128] Specifically, the minimum value of the heating speed v is subject to the target deformation and the steel plate material; according to field experience, reducing the heating speed is beneficial to the formation of the sail-shaped plate, but the surface temperature of the plate is too high, which will damage the material of the steel plate; according to the quality standard of Chinese shipbuilding, when the carbon equivalent of Q235B steel exceeds 0.40%, in order to avoid grain coarsening, oxidation and quenching crack, the maximum heating temperature of the surface needs to be strictly controlled below 950℃ under the condition of water cooling immediately after heating; this threshold balances the material performance and the process feasibility, which is the key control point of the heat treatment of the ship steel.
[0129] The heating wire length l is subject to the target deformation and the size of the plate width, and the heating wire length cannot be set at will, and the design of the heating wire length should comprehensively consider the deformation to be processed and the plate width; in the figure, the coil is heated along the moving path. Figure 9
[0130] In specific embodiments, according to the electromagnetic field boundary condition, the plate member force field constraint condition, the thermal boundary condition and the process parameters, the heat source model simulates electromagnetic heating, and the high-frequency induction heating forming process of the plate member is simulated along the moving track of the heat source model and the range of the cooling water; as shown in Figure 10 The numerical simulation result of the temperature distribution on the plate member changing with time during the moving process of the heat source model is obtained;
[0131] In this embodiment, the specific moving process of the heat source model is as follows:
[0132] S61, setting the heating wire constraint condition: setting the heating wire length in the process parameters to 0.3 meters, setting the starting point of the heating wire at 0.3 meters away from the edge of the plate member finite element model, and setting the end point at the edge of the plate member finite element model;
[0133] S62, setting the heating constraint condition: making the heating heat source take the center point of the heat source model as the reference point; the moving direction of the heat source model is from the starting point of the heating wire to the edge of the plate member finite element model along the heating wire;
[0134] S63, setting the motion constraint condition: setting the heating time to 100 seconds; making the heat source model move at a constant speed in the first 80 seconds; in the last 20 seconds, the speed of the heat source model is increased to 1.5 times of the speed before the speed change, until the heating is completed after the heating time reaches 100 seconds.
[0135] In specific embodiments, according to the numerical simulation results, the deformation data of the plate finite element model after high-frequency induction heating forming is obtained; wherein, the smaller the time step of the numerical simulation results, the higher the calculation accuracy, but too small time step will waste computing resources, and reasonable time step is 0.5s after multiple verifications.
[0136] In specific embodiments, according to the demand, the standardized temperature and deformation result output result files are set, such as the result files recording the time history change of temperature and deformation and the result files recording the deformation distribution; including but not limited to the following files:
[0137] 1. The result file recording the change of the midpoint temperature of the heating line with time is used for analyzing the change rule of the temperature, and the temperature change curve is drawn by using the data in the file as shown in Figure 11 . In the initial stage of heating, the heat source is far away from the midpoint, and has no effect on the midpoint temperature. As the heat source approaches, the temperature at the midpoint becomes higher and higher. When the heat source moves to the midpoint of the heating line, the temperature rises to the highest temperature of 847.51℃. Then, the heat source moves away, and the temperature at the midpoint gradually decreases, and then decreases sharply under the action of the cooling water until it is consistent with the ambient temperature.
[0138] 2. The result file recording the local shrinkage distribution along the heating line is used for analyzing the distribution rule of the local deformation, and the local shrinkage distribution curve is drawn by using the data in the file as shown in Figure 12 ; the local shrinkage increases first and then slowly increases with the movement of the heat source, and the maximum local shrinkage is 0.499mm. The position of the maximum local shrinkage is at the end of the heating line, because the closer to the plate edge, the smaller the surrounding cold metal area, which causes heat accumulation and increases the expansion process of heating forming, so that the local shrinkage increases.
[0139] 3. The result file recording the local shrinkage and deflection of the midpoint of the heating line with time is used for analyzing the change rule of the deformation of the marine steel sail-shaped plate with time, and the change curves of the local shrinkage and deflection with time are drawn by using the data in the file as shown in Figure 13 and Figure 14 ; in the initial stage, the heat source is far away from the midpoint of the heating line, so the deformation of the sail-shaped plate is not obvious. When the heat source moves to the midpoint of the heating line, the deformation of the sail-shaped plate changes obviously. When the heat source moves to the end of the heating line, the plate produces sharp shrinkage under the action of the cooling water, so that the local shrinkage and deflection increase sharply and finally tend to be stable.
[0140] In specific embodiments, the plate deformation results are compared with the physical experiment results to determine whether the results are consistent under the same parameters; if not, the heat source parameters in S1 are modified to re-simulate; if yes, it indicates that the accuracy of the induction heating forming finite element model is reliable.
[0141] In the present embodiment, the commands of steps S1 to S8 are written as a parameterized program in APDL in Mechanical under the ANSYS software package to realize the whole process of finite element simulation of high-frequency induction heating forming of a sail-shaped plate of a marine steel.
[0142] A physical experiment of line heating forming of a complex curved plate of a marine steel is designed and carried out, and the deformation result of the experiment is recorded; the geometric parameters of the steel plate used in the experiment are consistent with those in step S1, the process parameters are the same as those in step S4, and the material parameters are consistent with those in step S1;
[0143] The parameterized program is read in the ANSYS software, the numerical calculation deformation result of the marine steel plate is output, and is compared with the actual complex curved plate line heating physical experiment result, to determine whether the temperature field and the deformation field of the high-frequency induction heating are consistent with the result observed in the line heating process under the consistent geometric and process parameters, and meet the expectation.
[0144] It is determined whether the error of the numerical calculation result and the experiment is within the engineering allowable range, if not, the error of the heat source parameter setting in the numerical calculation is large, and the simulation is carried out after the heat source parameter in step S1 is modified, if yes, it is indicated that the precision of the numerical calculation model is reliable.
[0145] Specifically, according to the steps in the embodiment of the present application, a reliable command stream suitable for the existing conditions and applicable to the numerical calculation of high-frequency induction heating forming of a sail-shaped plate of a marine low-carbon steel is obtained; different geometric parameters and process parameters are designed in the command stream, a large number of command streams of simulation of high-frequency induction heating forming of a sail-shaped plate of a marine low-carbon steel under different working conditions are obtained; a Windows batch file is designed, and all the command streams are combined by using a batch program; the combined command stream is read, and a large number of result files of temperature and deformation under different working conditions are output; the result files are processed, and the influence law of the geometric parameters and the process parameters on the temperature and the deformation of the high-frequency induction heating forming of the sail-shaped plate of the marine steel is obtained.
[0146] The influence of the plate length, the plate width and the curvature radius on the shrinkage and the deflection is as shown in Figure 15 ;
[0147] The influence of the heating speed on the highest temperature on the surface of the steel plate under different times T is as shown in Figure 16 ; the highest temperature on the surface of the steel plate under the same working condition increases with the decrease of the heating speed; in the actual process, in order to ensure that the material quality of the steel plate is not damaged, the heating speed needs to be controlled so that the highest temperature on the surface of the plate is within the allowable range;
[0148] The influence of the heating speed on the shrinkage and the deflection under different plate thicknesses is as shown in Figure 17 and Figure 18As shown in the drawings; at the same speed, the thicker the steel plate, the smaller the local shrinkage and deflection generated by the line heating forming of the sail-shaped plate; at the same plate thickness, the faster the heating speed, the smaller the local shrinkage and deflection generated, which is caused by the low temperature of the steel plate surface; in order to make the steel plate surface produce deformation, the heating speed should be reduced, but too low heating speed will make the surface temperature of the steel plate too high and lead to the reduction of the performance of the steel plate and even the damage of the material, so the heating speed should be reasonably controlled;
[0149] The influence of heating speed on local shrinkage and deflection is shown in the drawings Figure 19 and Figure 20 When only the heating speed is changed, the slower the heating speed, the greater the local shrinkage and deflection generated, because the heating time is longer when the heating speed is slow, and the steel plate absorbs more heat.
[0150] The present application has the following beneficial effects:
[0151] The present application establishes a plate finite element model and an electromagnetic induction heating model, carries out numerical calculation on the simulation process of high induction heating forming of the sail-shaped plate, calculates the final deformation of the steel plate according to the geometric parameters and processing parameters of the plate, and can be used to judge whether the designed processing parameters are reasonable. The method quantitatively analyzes the influence of geometric / technological parameters on the space-time distribution of the temperature field and the final deformation, automatically generates the optimal process parameter combination, can improve the forming efficiency and precision of the complex curved plate of the marine steel, avoids secondary processing, and saves processing cost;
[0152] The electromagnetic field, force field constraint, thermal boundary and cooling water action are integrated to realize the full-process coupling simulation of "electromagnetic heating-moving heat source-forced cooling-deformation response", and accurately restore the physical mechanism of transient temperature gradient, thermal stress evolution and final deformation in the processing of the sail-shaped plate.
