Structural optimization of multistage depressurization sleeve of axial flow control valve based on Stacking integrated learning.

Due to the requirements of the working environment, the marine axial flow control valve needs to reduce the noise as much as possible while ensuring the flow capacity to meet the requirements. To improve the noise reduction effect of the axial flow control valve, this paper proposes a Stacking integrated learning combined with particle swarm optimization (PSO) method to optimize a multi-stage step-down sleeve of the axial flow control valve. The liquid dynamic noise and flow value of the axial flow control valve are predicted by computational fluid dynamics. Based on the preliminary evaluation of its performance, the structural parameters of the multi-stage pressure-reducing sleeve are parameterized by three-dimensional modeling software. The range of design variables is constrained to form the design space, and the design space is sampled by the optimal Latin hypercube method to form the sample space. An automated solution platform is built to solve noise and flow values under different structural parameters. The Stacking method is used to fuse the three base learners of decision tree regression, Kriging, and support vector regression to obtain a structural optimization fusion model with better prediction accuracy, and the accuracy of the fusion model is evaluated by three different error metrics of coefficient of determination (R
