The relationships of mass distribution (x(i), y(i), i = 1, ..., lambda) between two phases were expressed by 2 lambda dimensional simultaneous equations. These simultaneous equations can be converted to a one-dimension nonlinear equation, then it was solved by Newton-Raphson algorithm within a few number of iteration. Compared with the regular calculation method for the 2 lambda dimensional simultaneous equations, Newton-Raphson algorithm can decrease the number of iteration, increase the convergence of the equations and accelerate the speed of simulation. It was verified in many multi-component systems with satisfactory results. As an example, a five-component system is demonstrated in this paper.展开更多

Currently, Newton-Raphson algorithm is applied to load distribution of hot tandem mills in many hot rolling plants and has some serious defects such as having a strict restriction on initial iterative calculation value and requiring coefficient matrix of nonlinear equations to be nonsingular. To eliminate these defects and improve the online performance of the process control computer, Newton descendent numeric algorithm is introduced to this field to widen the initial value range and a new model named error conversion algorithm is put forth to deal with special conditions when the coefficient matrix is singular. Furthermore, considering the characteristics of load distribution, a condition of strip thickness distribution abnormality and corresponding solutions are provided which ensure that rolling parameters can be calculated normally. Simulation results show that the improved algorithm has overcome the defects of the Newton-Raphson algorithm and is suitable for online application.展开更多

In order to do this, the principles of optimal designs of experiment is invoked and used for this purpose. At the end, it was discovered that the noticeable pitfall in response surface methodology (RSM) was circumvented by this method as the step length was obtained by taking the derivative of the response function rather than doing so by intuition or trial and error as is the case in RSM. A numerical illustration shows that this method is suitable for obtaining the desired optimizer in just one move which compares favourably with other known methods such as Newton-Raphson method which requires more than one iteration to reach the optimizer.展开更多
