A fluid coupling or hydraulic coupling is a hydrodynamic or 'hydrokinetic' device used to transmit rotating mechanical power. It has been used in automobile transmissions as an alternative to a mechanical clutch. It also has widespread application in marine and industrial machine drives, where variable speed operation and controlled start-up without shock loading of the power transmission system is essential.

An ultrasonic cavitation microjet polishing module for polishing microstructures

This invention relates to the field of ultra-precision polishing technology, specifically to an ultrasonic cavitation microjet polishing module for polishing microstructures. The module includes an acoustic focusing nozzle, a center-penetrating piezoelectric transducer, an adaptive acoustic impedance frequency tracking system, and a liquid supply and bubble nucleation system. The acoustic focusing nozzle employs a variable cross-section acoustic amplitude rod structure, ensuring that the standing wave antinodes and nozzle outlet are confocal, thus increasing energy density. The piezoelectric transducer has a ring structure with fluid flowing through its center, achieving efficient energy conversion. The frequency tracking system adjusts the excitation frequency in real time to maintain resonance. The liquid supply system introduces cavitation nuclei through a venturi tube, reducing the cavitation threshold. This invention, through an acoustic-fluid coupling mechanism, utilizes the dual effects of macroscopic kinetic energy removal and microscopic cavitation removal to solve the problems of traditional polishing techniques, such as difficulty in processing high aspect ratio microstructures, incomplete bottom polishing, and low efficiency. It achieves high-precision polishing of microstructure surfaces, and is particularly suitable for ultra-precision machining of deep and narrow grooves.

This invention provides a variable damping magnetohydrodynamic coupler for marine generator sets and its control method, comprising a housing, an input shaft, an output shaft, an excitation assembly, a control unit, a piezoelectric element assembly, and an auxiliary sensing assembly. A damping cavity is provided within the housing. The excitation assembly includes a magnetorheological fluid, an excitation coil, and a magnetic ring. The magnetorheological fluid fills the damping cavity, and the excitation coil adjusts the magnetic field of the magnetic ring through the excitation current to control the damping torque of the magnetorheological fluid. Based on the controllable viscosity of the magnetorheological fluid, the damping torque can be continuously adjusted over a wide range of 50~500 Nm by adjusting the excitation current to change the magnetic field strength, dynamically adapting to complex operating conditions such as shipboard turbulence and sudden load changes. Combined with the micro-compensation function of the piezoelectric element assembly, the coaxiality accuracy of the shaft system is improved to ±0.002 mm, and the resonance risk caused by over-compensation under high-speed conditions is avoided through a speed correction coefficient.

It includes: a micro-turbulence column array, composed of multiple integrally formed columnar turbulence units, each with a diameter of 0.3 mm to 2.0 mm, which can be arranged individually or stacked; at least one guide rib, integrally set in the airflow deflection zone within the cooling cavity, with a cross-section of square, elliptical, teardrop, airfoil, or tapered; the micro-turbulence column array is positioned downstream of the guide rib along the cooling airflow direction. Hotspot regions are identified through thermal-fluid coupling simulation. With the goal of maximizing heat transfer intensity and minimizing pressure loss, topology optimization is performed on the layout parameters of the micro-turbulence column array and the profile parameters of the guide rib to achieve an optimized balance and determine the final structural parameters. This solves the problems of insufficient heat transfer and excessive pressure loss in the high-temperature region of the blade trailing edge caused by the inability of traditional casting processes to form complex sub-millimeter-scale internal cavity structures.
