Analysis of the Composite Transmission of Magnetorheological Fluids and Shape Memory Alloy by Chen Song, Jian Kailin, Huang Jin, Huang Xia

“…The magnetorheological effect of magnetorheological fluid reduce under a high temperature condition,which causes so many problems like the uncontrollability of the variation of shearing stress,and even failure of the transmission device.Based on the rheological property of magnetorheological fluid and the temperature characteristics of shape memory alloy,a composite transmission device of magnetorheological fluid and shape memory alloy is designed,which rely on magnetorheological fluid to transfer torque under a lower temperatures condition,shape memory alloy spring assisted power transmission when the magnetorheological performance reduce under a high temperature condition.The performance of drive force transmission device is analyzed,and the formula of power transmission of transmission device is derived.The study results show that the composite transmission device can work at the external magnetic field and the temperature control,the torque can maintain continuous,controllable under a high temperature condition,the stability and efficiency of transmission device are improved.…”

Evolution of Dry/Wet Climate in Xichang from 1961 to 2016 by XIAO Xiwen, ZHANG Yunlu, LIU Chunhong, WANG Yuefeng

“…Regional climate analysis can optimize and supplement global climate research,and it is of vital significance for predicting regional climate changes and extreme weather.Based on the daily temperature and precipitation data from 1961 to 2016 in Xichang city,this paper systematically reveals the characteristics of temperature,precipitation,and dry and wet climate changes at annual and inter-annual scales by using the cumulative anomaly method,nonparametric trend analysis of time series (innovative trend analysis (ITA) method and ITA-change boxes (ITA-CB) method) and standardized precipitation evaporation index (SPEI).The results show that:① The distribution characteristics of annual temperature and precipitation in Xichang are similar,with the maximum value of both appearing in July.Moreover,the minimum temperature and precipitation appear in January and February,respectively.The average inter-annual and inter-decadal temperatures increase obviously,and the average inter-decadal precipitation improves slowly.② For the past 56 years,Xichang has witnessed apparent dry and wet climate changes.SPEI has dropped in a fluctuating tendency.In addition,it is negatively correlated with temperature (p<0.05) but positively correlated with precipitation (p<0.01).As temperature increases significantly,the drought degree has become more and more serious since 2003,and the negative value of SPEI accounts for 78.6%.The proportion of drought to extreme drought has increased to 28.6% in 2010.③ The average annual precipitation increases in low-value regions but decreases in high-value regions.The average annual temperature rises both in low-value regions and high-value regions and basically maintains an increasing tendency in median regions.SPEI increases in low-value regions but decreases in median and high-value regions.The research results can provide a reference for Xichang in dealing with climate change and formulating disaster prevention and mitigation plans.…”

RESEARCH ON MULTI-FIELD COUPLING CHARACTERISTICS OF FLUID, THERMAL AND SOLID IN ROTARY EXCITATION VALVE (MT) by LU ShengDong, WANG SiHan, ZHAO ZiYan, ZHAO GuoChao, WANG Hui

“…The temperature of fluid near the valve core and the wall of valve body is higher, and the center temperature is lower.Due to the impact of the fluid at the outlet of rotary excitation valve, a local high temperature will be generated, resulting in thermal deformation of the valve core groove and the valve body outlet port.When the pressure difference between inlet and outlet at 15 MPa, the thermal deformation is 3.789 4 μm, and the oil inlet temperature at 60℃, the thermal deformation is 7.701 7 μm. …”
