The governing equations are solved numerically using the COMSOL Multiphysics software for the coupled reactive flow and solute transport at micro-scale, meso-scale and macro-scale levels. At or near the surface of ore particle, the acid concentration is relatively higher than that in the central area, while the concentration gradient decreases after 72 d of leaching. The flow simulation between ore particles by combining X-ray CT technology shows that the highest velocity in narrow pore reaches 0.375 m/s. The air velocity within the dump shows that the velocity near the top and side surface is relatively high, which leads to the high oxygen concentration in that area. The coupled heat transfer and liquid flow process shows that the solution can act as an effective remover from the heap, dropping the highest temperature from 60 to 38 ℃. The reagent transfer coupled with solution flow is also analyzed. The results obtained allow us to obtain a better understanding of the fundamental physical phenomenon of the bioleaching process.展开更多

Then, CFD software was used to simulate the flow, heat transfer and chemical reaction process in reduction furnace and to analyze the change law of deposition characteristic along with the H_2 mole fraction, silicon rod height and silicon rod diameter. The results show that with the increase of H_2 mole fraction, silicon growth rate increases firstly and then decreases. On the contrary, SiHCl_3 conversion rate and unit energy consumption decrease firstly and then increase. Silicon production rate increases constantly. The optimal H_2 mole fraction is 0.8-0.85. With the growth of silicon rod height, Si HCl3 conversion rate, silicon production rate and silicon growth rate increase, while unit energy consumption decreases. In terms of chemical reaction, the higher the silicon rod is, the better the performance is. In the view of the top-heavy situation, the actual silicon rod height is limited to be below 3 m. With the increase of silicon rod diameter, silicon growth rate decreases firstly and then increases. Besides, SiHCl_3 conversion rate and silicon production rate increase, while unit energy consumption first decreases sharply, then becomes steady. In practice, the bigger silicon rod diameter is more suitable. The optimal silicon rod diameter must be over 120 mm.展开更多

In SOMS, each resource involved in the whole life cycle of a product, whether it is provided by a piece of software or a hardware device, is encapsulated into a service. So, the transportation during production of a task should be taken into account because the hard-services selected are possibly provided by various providers in different areas. In the service allocation optimization mathematical model, multi-task and transportation were considered simultaneously. In the proposed HDPSOGA algorithm, integer coding method was applied to establish the mapping between the particle location matrix and the service allocation scheme. The position updating process was performed according to the cognition part, the social part, and the previous velocity and position while introducing the crossover and mutation idea of genetic algorithm to fit the discrete space. Finally, related simulation experiments were carried out to compare with other two previous algorithms. The results indicate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed hybrid algorithm.展开更多

In this work, a novel mathematic model for the hybrid flow shop scheduling problem with unrelated parallel machine(HFSPUPM) was proposed. Additionally, an effective hybrid estimation of distribution algorithm was proposed to solve the HFSPUPM, taking advantage of the features in the mathematic model. In the optimization algorithm, a new individual representation method was adopted. The(EDA) structure was used for global search while the teaching learning based optimization(TLBO) strategy was used for local search. Based on the structure of the HFSPUPM, this work presents a series of discrete operations. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid algorithm compared with other algorithms.展开更多
