钯吸氢动力学性能的数值模拟
储氢合金的PCT曲线和氢化动力学性能是描述合金储氢性能的重要标准，目前对合金的PCT曲线测试一般采用体积法，对合金氢化反应动力学的研究一般采用等容差压法。但在实际生产过程中，储氢合金通常是在恒定氢气流速的情况下工作的，所以研究合金在恒定氢气流速条件下的吸氢动力学性能很有必要。与实验相比，采用数值模拟预报合金的吸放氢性能节省了大量的时间和成本，具有突出优势。目前金属Pd及其合金被广泛应用于储氢及氢气纯化等领域，我们通过COMSOL软件建模，构建Pd吸氢热力学与动力学特性模型，选用传热、流体流动、域常微分等物理场模块建立了Pd在恒定氢气流速下吸氢动力学的计算模型 ... Read More

由于异种金属的热物理性能存在较大差异，在焊接过程中极易形成金属间化合物，这给两种材料的焊接造成了一定的困难。因此，针对钢/铝异种金属焊接存在的难点，建立了基于COMSOL软件的激光-TIG复合热源焊三维瞬态熔池数值分析模型。利用所建模型对不同焊接条件下的激光-TIG复合热源焊熔池形貌和温度场进行模拟计算，分别探讨了激光功率、电弧电流及焊接速度对复合焊焊接温度场的影响规律。 Read More
煤炭地下气化顶板温度场与力学场模拟
煤炭地下气化就是将处于地下的煤炭直接进行有控制的燃烧，通过对煤的热作用及化学作用产生可燃气体的过程。煤炭地下气化过程中，随着气化工作面的扩展，燃空区范围不断扩大，煤层顶板产生裂隙甚至发生冒落，对地下气化稳定运行造成不确定影响。相较于常规井工开采造成的顶板垮落，气化过程会产生大量热，顶板在煤层温度场高温作用下因热膨胀产生热应力，改变顶板内热应力的分布，同时温度会对顶板岩石的抗压强度、抗折强度、比热容、导热系数等造成影响。研究随着燃空区的逐渐扩展，顶板在温度影响下的应力场分布，对研究煤炭地下气化过程中的顶板冒落规律有重要意义。 ... Read More
