To date, there is a large number of programs that simulate the train operation of the locomotive using the method of traction calculations. As input data in the program, information is entered about the track section, locomotive and train composition. The drawback of modeling the train motion using the traction calculation method is the obtaining of a local unimportant result for a particular section of the track. The article proposes a new approach to modeling the operation of freight mainline locomotive. The train operation of the mainline locomotive is represented by a limited number of generalized modes depending in turn on a limited set of initial conditions - the profile of the track section, the weight of the train, the speed of the locomotive, etc. In this case, the elements of the set of initial conditions are random variables. The advantage of the proposed approach is the ability to give a generalized assessment of the change in the performance of the locomotive train when introducing new elements and control algorithms into the diesel generator unit without linking to a particular section of the track. Comparison of the time of work on the positions of the driver's controller was obtained during the year by mathematical modeling and experienced runs with diesel locomotives of the 2TE116U series at Oktyabrskaya Railway, a branch of the Russian Railways. It showed that the maximum discrepancy between calculated and experimental data does not exceed 5 %. The proposed algorithm for simulating the train operation of the freight mainline locomotive allows reproducing the locomotive train performance parameters with an acceptable accuracy for practice. It can be used to obtain quantitative estimates of the impact of changes in the performance of the train operation of long-distance freight diesel locomotives when new elements and control algorithms are introduced into the diesel generator unit.

Normal practice in continuous digester operation is to set the production rate through the chip meter speed. This speed is seldom, if ever, adjusted except to change production, and most of the other digester inputs are ratioed to it. The inherent assumption is that constant chip meter speed equates to constant dry mass flow of chips. This is seldom, if ever, true. As a result, the actual production rate, effective alkali (EA)-to-wood and liquor-to-wood ratios may vary substantially from assumed values. This increases process variability and decreases profits. In this report, a new continuous digester production rate control strategy is developed that addresses this shortcoming. A new noncontacting near infrared–based chip moisture sensor is combined with the existing weightometer signal to estimate the actual dry chip mass feedrate entering the digester. The estimated feedrate is then used to implement a novel feedback control strategy that adjusts the chip meter speed to maintain the dry chip feedrate at the target value. The report details the results of applying the new measurements and control strategy to a dual vessel continuous digester.

The statistical correlation was applied to analyze the specific and quantitative correlation relationship between the solidification structure and central segregation along the casting direction in carbon steel billet. On this basis, the segregation formation mechanism of the solute element and related control strategy were investigated. It is found that the equiaxed crystal zone fluctuation along the casting direction determines the fluctuation degree of central segregation. At the same time, the central segregation at a certain position is mostly affected by the equiaxed crystal zone width at the hysteretic position. Moreover, the casting speed can influence the columnar to equiaxed transition (CET) fluctuation along the casting direction by affecting the flow of molten steel in the billet. Overall, the segregation mechanism of solute elements along the casting direction can be summarized into two aspects: First, with the growth of columnar crystals in the initial stage, the segregated solutes are continuously enriched and distributed in the equiaxed crystal zone after CET. The fluctuation of the equiaxed crystal zone will affect the distribution of the enriched solute in the billet and cause the fluctuation of the central segregation. Second, due to the solidification shrinkage at the end of solidification, the solute-enriched liquid phase at the hysteretic position is pumped to the solidification endpoint and forms the central V-shaped segregation. Meanwhile, the stable solidification structure (columnar crystal length or equiaxed crystal zone width) along the casting direction and control measures preceded equiaxed crystal zone formation are beneficial to reduce the central V-shaped segregation.
