    Abstract: A pitch control method and system of a symmetrical-airfoil vertical axis wind turbine collects data by an anemometer, an anemoscope and an angle sensor, outputs an optimum pitch angle based on a control law of a pitch angle and controls the pitch angle to be the optimum pitch angle through a pitch control actuator. In addition to input variables of the control law such as a wind velocity vin and a blade azimuth angle Ψ, constants such as a rotation radius R, a rotation velocity Ω of the blade and aerodynamic coefficients c1, c2 and c3 are also related. A Reynolds number has little influence on three aerodynamic coefficients c1, c2 and c3. The pitch actuator controls the adjustment rods to realize the automatic pitch control of the blades. An expression of the control law of the pitch is concise, the calculation time is short, and a response speed is fast.

    Abstract: A flocculating, grading, and dewatering device includes a tank body, a mixing zone, a flocculent settling zone, a centrifugal dewatering zone, and a particle screening zone. An initial material is mixed with a chemical agent for a flocculation reaction, a lower sediment material settles and an upper liquid overflows. In the centrifugal dewatering zone, a screen basket is allowed to rotate to facilitate a centrifugal movement of the sediment material, water in the sediment material moves into a guide cavity and then flows to a centrifugate outlet, and then a dewatered material in the screen basket is removed out of the screen basket. In the particle screening zone, a screening mechanism screens particles of different size grades in the dewatered material, and water generated flows downward and is discharged; liquids discharged from the centrifugate outlet and the overflow port are combined, and then discharged through a mixed liquid outlet.
