Abstract

In this study, glass-carbon hybrid fibre reinforced polymer matrix composite is proposed to use in solar greenhouse dryer trays. The effects of hybridization on compressive instability failure are analysed by varying the glass fiber volume percentage in a composite. The study examines the compressive instability failure of the composite, considering the non-linear constitutive behaviour of the polymer matrix and initial morphological defects. Each glass and carbon fiber is modelled using 3D finite element micromechanical models. Linear buckling analysis is conducted with appropriately scaled faults. The Thermal analysis to determine heat distribution over the tray, carried out using COMSOL Multiphysics tool, solar greenhouse dryers are used to dehydrate agricultural products, preserving them for longer periods and improving their market value. The materials used in these dryer trays must meet specific performance criteria to ensure optimal drying conditions. In Greenhouse solar dryers, two commonly used tray configurations such as Stable Tray-Assisted Dryer (STAD) and Rotatable Tray-Assisted Dryer (RTAD) are considered in this study and the glass-carbon hybrid composite used in solar greenhouse dryer trays Introduced as Hybrid composite Rotatable Tray-Assisted Dryer (HRTAD), offers significant contributions by ensuring uniform and effective moisture removal and their excellent strength-to-weight ratio, corrosion resistance, heat resistance, sustainability, and long life. These properties make them a dependable and effective solution for building solar dryer components, assuring optimal performance and contributing to the overall success of solar greenhouse systems. Hybrid glass fiber composites offer several advantages that make them particularly suitable for this application.

关于太阳能温室干燥器中使用的玻璃-碳纤维混合复合材料的研究
本研究建议将玻璃-碳混合纤维增强聚合物基复合材料用于太阳能温室干燥器托盘。通过改变玻璃纤维在复合材料中的体积百分比,分析了杂化对压缩失稳失效的影响。考虑到聚合物基体的非线性构成行为和初始形态缺陷,该研究对复合材料的压缩失稳失效进行了检验。每根玻璃纤维和碳纤维都使用三维有限元微机械模型建模。利用适当比例的故障进行线性屈曲分析。使用 COMSOL Multiphysics 工具进行了热分析,以确定托盘上的热量分布。这些干燥盘中使用的材料必须符合特定的性能标准,以确保最佳的干燥条件。在温室太阳能干燥器中,本研究考虑了两种常用的托盘配置,如稳定托盘辅助干燥器(STAD)和可旋转托盘辅助干燥器(RTAD),以及太阳能温室干燥器托盘中使用的玻璃-碳混合复合材料(介绍为混合复合可旋转托盘辅助干燥器(HRTAD)),通过确保均匀、有效的水分去除,以及其出色的强度重量比、耐腐蚀性、耐热性、可持续性和长使用寿命,做出了重大贡献。这些特性使它们成为制造太阳能干燥器部件的可靠而有效的解决方案,确保了最佳性能,为太阳能温室系统的全面成功做出了贡献。混合玻璃纤维复合材料具有多种优势,特别适合这种应用。
