“…[ 27 ] In the CCD method, each numeric factor was set to five levels: plus or minus alpha (axial point), plus or minus 1 (factorial point), and center point. [ 28 ] Based on CCD method, 13 experiments were carried out, and the corresponding discrete element model was established. The experimental results are shown in the Table 7 , where MLC represents the material level coefficient and RS represents the rotating speed.…”

To improve the uniformity of asphalt mixtures, optimizing the particle distribution is essential, and the screw conveyor of paver plays a critical role in this process. In this regard, a parameter optimization strategy based on the discrete element method and response surface methodology (RSM) is proposed. First, a discrete element model is developed for spiral material separation and asphalt mixture particles. Next, uniformity evaluation indicators are used to analyze the impact of individual parameters on particle uniformity. Then, simulation experiments are conducted under varying material level coefficients and rotational speeds, and a regression model is developed to analyze the impact of coupling factors using RSM. Afterward, different algorithms are employed to optimize the parameters of the model, and the results show that the particle swarm optimization algorithm is better than the traditional hill climbing algorithm. Last, field tests are conducted to verify the feasibility of the proposed optimization strategy. The optimal theoretical parameter of the material level coefficient is 0.95, and the rotational speed is 53 rpm. Overall, the proposed strategy offers an effective and accurate model for simulating the process of particle separation, which can lead to improved uniformity of asphalt mixtures.

Similar to any solar conversion application into electrical power, the photovoltaic panel performance is suffering from the high temperature and when it is mounted in hot-dry climates. One method to overcome these setbacks is to marry the PV panel with a solar air updraft system, which led to a decline in its temperature by upgrading the air mass flow facing the PV-panel. This paper presents a comprehensive review of the hybrid Photovoltaic-Air Updraft Solar models. The review presents and discusses the compounds and experimental and theoretical studies that were carried out on the existing PV-solar air updraft models. In addition, the paper proposed a new solar air updraft technique by coupling the PV panel with a swirling air generator. The proposed model is simple and more efficient than the conventional solar air updraft design, leading to higher PV panel cooling performance.
