Разработана двумерная математическая модель для оценки напряжений в сварных соединениях, формируемых при многопроходной сварке многослойных сталей. Основой модели является система уравнений, которая включает вариационное уравнение Лагранжа инкрементальной теории пластичности и вариационное уравнение теплопроводности, выражающее принцип М. Био. Вариационно-разностным методом решается задача теплопроводности для расчета нестационарного температурного поля, а затем на каждом шаге по времени – квазистатическая задача термопластичности. Разностная схема построена на треугольных сетках, что дает некоторое повышение точности при описании положения границ раздела структурных элементов.

A two-dimensional mathematical model was developed for estimating the stresses in welded joints formed during multipass welding of multilayer steels. The basis of the model is the system of equations that includes the Lagrange variational equation of incremental plasticity theory and the variational equation of heat conduction, which expresses the principle of M. Biot. Variational-difference method was used to solve the problems of heat conductivity and calculation of the transient temperature field, and then at each time step – for the quasi-static problem of thermoplasticity. The numerical scheme is based on triangular meshes, which gives a more accuracy in describing the boundaries of structural elements as compared to rectangular grids.

The viscoelastic fluid flow model across a porous medium has captivated the interest of many contemporary researchers due to its industrial and technical uses, such as food processing, paper and textile coating, packed bed reactors, the cooling effect of transpiration and the dispersion of pollutants through aquifers. This article focuses on the influence of variable viscosity and viscoelasticity on the magnetohydrodynamic oscillatory flow of second-order fluid through thermally radiating wavy walls. A mathematical model for this fluid flow, including governing equations and boundary conditions, is developed using the usual Boussinesq approximation. The governing equations are transformed into a system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations using non-similarity transformations. The numerical results obtained by applying finite-difference code based on the Lobatto IIIa formula generated by bvp4c solver are compared to the semi-analytical solutions for the velocity, temperature and concentration profiles obtained using the homotopy perturbation method (HPM). The effect of flow parameters on velocity, temperature, concentration profiles, skin friction coefficient, heat and mass transfer rate, and skin friction coefficient is examined and illustrated graphically. The physical parameters governing the fluid flow profoundly affected the resultant flow profiles except in a few cases. By using the slope linear regression method, the importance of considering the viscosity variation parameter and its interaction with the Lorentz force in determining the velocity behavior of the viscoelastic fluid model is highlighted. The percentage increase in the velocity profile of the viscoelastic model has been calculated for different ranges of viscosity variation parameters. Finally, the results are validated numerically for the skin friction coefficient and Nusselt number profiles.

Проведено компьютерное моделирование динамики нагрева воздушной фурмы доменной печи с помощью вычислительной среды конечно-элементного анализа DEFORM-2D. Исследовано влияние теплоизолирующей вставки, установленной в дутьевой канал с воздушным зазором и без зазора, а также газотермического покрытия на температурное поле воздушной фурмы доменной печи. Результаты моделирования показали значительное влияние теплоизолирующей вставки в дутьевой канал и воздушного зазора, отделяющего ее от внутреннего стакана, на температурное поле фурмы. При наличии вставки наблюдается градиент температуры по ее толщине до 540–555 °С, причем максимального значения температура вставки достигает на поверхности со стороны дутьевого канала. В то же время температура внутреннего стакана снижается на 35–40 °С по сравнению с фурмой без вставки. При наличии вставки с воздушным зазором градиент температуры вставки по ее толщине снижается до 160–250 °С по сравнению с вариантом без воздушного зазора, причем максимальное значение температуры поверхности вставки со стороны дутьевого канала также увеличивается. Температура внутреннего стакана также снижается еще на 15–20 °С по сравнению с вариантом без воздушного зазора. Однако наблюдается резкий градиент температуры воздушного зазора по его толщине до 760 °С из-за низкой теплопроводности воздуха. При наличии газотермического покрытия максимальная температура нагрева торца рыльной части снизилась до 326 °С, а максимальный градиент температуры по его толщине также снизился до 67 °С по сравнению с вариантом без покрытия. С помощью программного комплекса DEFORM-2D создана модель, имитирующая прогар фурмы вследствие контака с жидким чугуном. Показано, что через 40 с контакта с чугуном температура на поверхности рыльной части со стороны воды достигает 1050 °С, а через 100 с — 1060 °С, что практически равносильно прогару.

Study of work of heating equipment is an actual issue because it allows determining optimal regimes to reach highest efficiency. At that it is very helpful to use computer simulation to predict how different heating modes influence the effectiveness of the heating process and wear of heating equipment. Computer simulation provides results whose accuracy is proven by many studies and requires costs and time less than real experiments. In terms of present research, computer simulation of heating of air tuyere of blast furnace was realized with the help of FEM software. Background studies revealed possibility to simulate it as a flat, axisymmetric problem and DEFORM-2D software was used for simulation. Geometry, necessary for simulation, was designed with the help of SolidWorks, saved in .dxf format. Then it was exported to DEFORM-2D pre-processor and positioned. Preliminary and boundary conditions were set up. Several modes of operating regimes were under analysis. In order to demonstrate influence of eah of the modes and for better visualization point tracking option of the DEFORM-2D post-processor was applied. Influence of thermal insulation box plugged into blow channel, with and without air gap, and thermal coating on air tuyere’s temperature field was investigated. Simulation data demonstrated significant effect of thermal insulation box on air tuyere’s temperature field. Designed model allowed to simulate tuyere’s burnout as a result of interaction with liquid iron. Conducted researches have demonstrated DEFORM-2D effectiveness while using it for simulation of heat transfer and heating processes. DEFORM-2D is about to be used in further studies dedicated to more complex process connected with temperature field of blast furnace’s air tuyere.
