Research on Gas Wave Refrigeration Application of Full Feedback Periodic Jet Oscillator

Abstract: Static gas wave refrigeration (SGWR) is a mechanic equipment with no moving parts which realize refrigeration by working on gas through pressure energy. This paper introduces full feedback jet oscillator as the jet distributor of the gas wave refrigerator and shows the switching mechanism of the oscillator in detail through dynamics description. The range of influence of wedge distance (distance between wedge tip and the nozzle) on the pressure retention rate and frequency at the oscillator outlet is discussed, and a SGWR experiment platform is set up to make comparison of the pressure waveform as well as cooling efficiency of the impulse jet from two oscillators with different wedge distance in the gas wave tube. The result shows that jet oscillator performance varies along with the wedge distance, thus influencing the cooling efficiency. To expand the efficient operation range, the principle of jet frequency changing and the impact of narrowing the oscillator structure on jet frequency are discussed in detail, the variation rule equation of the jet switching frequency is derived. Matching experiments of jet oscillator and size of gas wave tube have been conducted under conditions of specific frequency and variable frequency. It is concluded that there exists fluctuation value in gas wave tube refrigeration efficiency versus gas injection frequency curve, which can be up to 15% or more. Based on the present results, the jet frequency control method can make the gas wave tube operate at the refrigeration's peak frequency, thus improving SGWR refrigeration efficiency.

Nonlocal strain gradient shell model for axial buckling and postbuckling analysis of magneto-electro-elastic composite nanoshells

Abstract: The present study deals with the size-dependent nonlinear buckling and postbuckling characteristics of magneto-electro-elastic cylindrical composite nanoshells incorporating simultaneously the both of hardening-stiffness and softening-stiffness size effects. To accomplish this purpose, the nonlocal strain gradient elasticity theory is applied to the classical shell theory. Via the virtual work's principle, the size-dependent governing differential equations are constructed including the coupling terms between the axial mechanical compressive load, external magnetic potential and external electrical potential. The nonlinear prebuckling deformations and the large postbuckling deflections are taken into consideration based upon the boundary layer theory of shell buckling. Finally, an improved perturbation technique is employed to achieve explicit analytical expressions for nonlocal strain gradient stability curves of magneto-electro-elastic nanoshells under various surface electric and magnetic voltages. It is seen that a positive electric potential and a negative magnetic potential cause to increase both of the nonlocality and strain gradient size dependencies in the nonlinear instability behavior of axially loaded magneto-electro-elastic composite nanoshells, while a negative electric potential and a positive magnetic potential play an opposite role.
