Under the condition of the designated collection ratio and the interfused ratio of mullock,to ensure the least energy consumption,the parameters of collecting head (the feed speed,the axes height of collecting head,and the rotate speed) are chosen as the optimized parameters.According to the force on the cutting pick,the collecting size of the cobalt crust and bedrock and the optimized energy consumption of the collecting head,the optimized design model of collecting head is built.Taking two hundred groups seabed microtopography for grand in the range of depth displacement from 4.5 to 5.5 cm,then making use of the improved simulated annealing genetic algorithm (SAGA),the corresponding optimized result can be obtained.At the same time,in order to speed up the controlling of collecting head,the optimization results are analyzed using the regression analysis method,and the conclusion of the second parameter of the seabed microtopography is drawn.
Water hammer occurs whenever the fluid velocity in vertical lifting pipe systems for deep-sea mining suddenly changes. In this work, the shock wave was proven to play an important role in changing pressures and periods, and mathematical and numerical modeling technology was presented for simulated transient pressure in the abnormal pump operation. As volume concentrations were taken into account of shock wave speed, the experiment results about the pressure-time history, discharge-time history and period for the lifting pipe system showed that： as its concentrations rose up, the maximum transient pressure went down, so did its discharges; when its volume concentrations increased gradually, the period numbers of pressure decay were getting less and less, and the corresponding shock wave speed decreased. These results have highly coincided with simulation results. The conclusions are important to design lifting transporting system to prevent water hammer in order to avoid potentially devastating consequences, such as damage to components and equipment and risks to personnel.
