The solidification process of solar salt particles was divided into three typical stages, with different phase transition patterns and solid-liquid phase boundary morphologies. In addition, the crystallized solar salt featured a typical dendritic morphology, and the initial crystallization site was random and significantly affected dendrite evolution in all directions. When the nucleation site was close to the center, the growths of the main dendrites in the different directions were more consistent, and consequently, the overall morphology featured good symmetry. Through phase-field simulation, the effects of three key phase-field parameters, namely the mode number of anisotropy j , the dimensionless latent heat K , and the strength of anisotropy δ , on the dendrites were explored via the controlled variable method. The model’s vital input parameters were further optimized according to the experimental results. The results showed that the numerical model could accurately simulate the crystal evolution of the actual solar salt particles at K = 2.4, j = 9, and δ = 0.01.","PeriodicalId":37925,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo Kexue Jishu Kexue/Scientia Sinica Technologica","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135348121","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The conventional closed-loop control in the harmonic plane caused controller conflicts owing to this coupling effect, which reduced the fault-tolerant performance of the DTP-PMSM. Thus, this paper proposes a harmonic closed-loop fault-tolerant control strategy of DTP-PMSM without controller conflict for single-phase open-circuit faults. First, a fault-tolerant prediction model is derived using a dimensionality-reduced decoupling matrix to overcome the coupling effect, and then, a set of virtual voltage vector control sets suitable for open-circuit faults is reconstructed. In addition, a harmonic voltage extended-state observer is designed to suppress the harmonic current caused by nonlinear factors. The duty cycle that needs to be compensated is quickly obtained via coordinate transformation and injected into the corrected voltage vector to complete the harmonic closed-loop control. The experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":37925,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo Kexue Jishu Kexue/Scientia Sinica Technologica","volume":"33 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134916029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
