    [0073] S2, establishing a three-dimensional solid refined model of the preliminary design result based on a finite element analysis method:

    (1) Establishing a Three-Dimensional Solid Refined Model

    [0074] The refined model establishing is divided into two parts, one part is the establishment of an inner container model, and the other part is the establishment of a composite reinforced layer. The inner container is made of metal material or non-metal material, the metal inner container is a revolving body, and the non-metal inner container is a revolving assembly (the cylinder is non-metal, and the polar hole is metal); the establishment of the composite reinforced layer is complicated, and is divided into a circumferential layer modeling and a spiral layer modeling. The circumferential layer is performed with a ply stacking modeling by using 90 fibers, the spiral layer is performed with a ply stacking modeling according to a preliminarily designed ply angle, and the ply stacking modeling method with variable angle and thickness is used at the head. The modified cubic spline thickness formula is used for a data calculation and then the ply stacking modeling is carried out.

    [0076] A method for establishing the composite reinforced layer includes following steps: [0077] the reinforced layer of composite material may be divided into a circumferential layer modeling and a spiral layer modeling. The circumferential layer is performed with a ply stacking modeling by using 90 fibers, the spiral layer is performed with a ply stacking modeling according to a preliminarily designed ply angle, and the ply stacking modeling method with variable angle and thickness is used at the head. The modified cubic spline thickness formula is used for a data calculation and then the ply stacking modeling is carried out. [0078] a method for carrying out a ply stacking modeling after the data calculation by using the modified cubic spline thickness formula includes: [0079] a modified cubic spline function for calculating a thickness of the head is as follows:

    [00019] t ( r i ) = m 1 r i 0 + m 2 r i 1 + m 3 r i 2 + m 4 r i 3 [0080] where m.sub.1, m.sub.2, m.sub.3, m.sub.4 represent undetermined coefficients and r.sub.i represents a distance from a central axis;

    [0081] The modified cubic spline function uses the calculation formula of r.sub.2.2b instead of the conventional calculation formula of fiber volume in two bandwidth ranges, the calculation formula of r.sub.2.2b is more convenient for calculation and also avoids a peak of fiber accumulation within one-time bandwidth, a formula for determining m.sub.1, m.sub.2, m.sub.3, m.sub.4 is as follows:

    [00020] [ m 1 m 2 m 3 m 4 ] = [ 1 r 0 r 0 2 r 0 3 1 r 2 b r 2 b 2 r 2 b 3 0 1 2 r 2 b 3 r 2 b 2 1 r 2.2 b r 2.2 b 2 r 2.2 b 3 ] - 1 [ t R .Math.

[ arc cos ( r 0 r 2.2 b ) - arc cos ( r 0 + b r 2.2 b ) ] .Math. t p ] [0082] where m.sub.R represents a number of yarn bands in each single layer of a cylinder body, n.sub.R represents a total number of single layers, t.sub.p represents a thickness of single layer yarn bands, m.sub.0 represents a number of yarn pieces at a polar hole, m.sub.R.Math.n.sub.R represents a total number of yarn bands, and m.sub.R.Math.n.sub.R.Math.t.sub.p represents a total thickness of yarn bands in the cylinder body.

    [0083] Formulas for calculating a winding angle at the polar hole of the head are as follows: [0084] a spherical head formula:

    [00021] = arc sin ( r 0 R ) 180 [0085] an elliptical head formula:

    [00022] = arc sin ( r 0 2 r 0 2 + ( R 2 - r 0 2 ) h 2 R 2 ) 180 [0086] where r.sub.0 represents the polar hole radius, and R represents an outside radius of the cylinder body; [0087] formulas for calculating a winding angle of the head are as follows: [0088] a spherical head formula:

    [00023] = arc sin ( r 0 r i ) 180 [0089] an elliptical head formula:

    [00025] sin 2 = r 0 2 R 2 sin 2 = R 2 - r 2 r 2 .Math. r 0 2 R 2 - r 0 2 .

    (2) Material Attribute Setting

    [0091] Failure criteria need to be added to the material property setting, such as three-dimensional Hashin and LaRC04 failure criteria, or progressive failure model to improve the calculation accuracy, but the calculation time becomes longer.

    (3) Application and Solution of Boundary Conditions

    [0092] One end of the gas cylinder is fixed or other fixed constraints are selected; the load is pressurized on an inner surface of the inner container, where a self-tightening pressure of a metal inner container needs to be calculated, and a CAE analysis and calculation are carried out after loading. The pressure loading process is as follows: [0093] process 1: the internal pressure of the gas cylinder rises from a zero pressure to the self-tightening pressure; [0094] process 2: the internal pressure of the gas cylinder declines from the self-tightening pressure to the zero pressure; [0095] process 3: the internal pressure of the gas cylinder rises from the zero pressure to a nominal working pressure; [0096] process 4: the internal pressure of the gas cylinder rises from the nominal working pressure to a hydraulic fatigue test pressure (1.3 times the working pressure); [0097] process 5: the internal pressure of the gas cylinder rises from the hydraulic fatigue test pressure to a hydraulic test pressure of the gas cylinder (1.5 times the working pressure); and [0098] process 6: the internal pressure of the gas cylinder rises from the hydraulic test pressure of the gas cylinder to a hydraulic bursting pressure of the gas cylinder (2.35 times the working pressure); [0099] where the self-tightening pressure is estimated by several groups of data for trial calculation, and then the self-tightening pressure is determined according to following restrictions: [0100] a, under the working pressure, the fiber stress of the winding layer cannot exceed 30% of a strength limit; [0101] b, under the working pressure, the stress of the metal inner container cannot exceed 60% of a yield limit; [0102] c, under the zero pressure, a compressive stress of the metal inner container cannot exceed 95% of the yield limit, but is above 60% of the yield limit; and [0103] d, the maximum stress at the head of the winding layer of the gas cylinder is always less than the maximum stress at the cylinder body.

    [0104] In the process of CAE solution, nonlinear and large deformation options need to be turned on to obtain more accurate results.

    (4) Post-Processing of Results

    [0105] The overall stress evaluation of gas cylinder inner container may be based on Von Mises stress less than tensile strength, and the local stress may be evaluated according to the stress analysis method provided by analysis and design standards, that is, the primary bending stress is less than 1.5 times the yield strength, the local film stress is less than 1.5 times the yield strength, and the primary stress plus the secondary stress is less than 3 times the yield strength.

    [0106] The stress evaluation of gas cylinder winding layer is evaluated according to LaRC04 criterion, which may be used to judge whether the gas cylinder winding layer is invalid under the blasting pressure, and this method may also be used to calculate the actual blasting pressure.

    [0107] S3, carrying out a multi-objective optimization design of the high-pressure composite wound gas cylinder by applying a response surface or a genetic algorithm based on the three-dimensional solid refined model.

    [0108] Based on the response surface or the genetic algorithm, the multi-objective optimization design of high-pressure composite wound gas cylinder is carried out. The multi-objective optimization design of high-pressure composite wound gas cylinder takes ply stacking angle, ply stacking sequence and ply stacking number as design variables, takes weight of gas cylinder winding layer, fiber direction stress and fiber tangential stress as objective functions and takes the blasting pressure as a constraint condition.

    [0109] Optionally, in S3, a process of applying the response surface or the genetic algorithm to carry out the optimization design includes: [0110] carrying out a simulation analysis according to the built refined simulation model; and [0111] applying the response surface or the genetic algorithm to carry out the optimization design.

    [0112] A mathematical model is built as follows:

    [00026] min F ( x ) = ( f 1 ( x ) , f 2 ( x ) , f 3 ( x ) ) [0113] where F(x) represents the objective function, .sub.1(x) represents the mass of winding layer; .sub.2(x) represents the fiber direction stress, .sub.3(x) represents the fiber tangential stress, and P(x)P.sub.b represents the constraint condition.

    [0114] The mathematical model is an optimized design objective function model.

    [0115] As shown in FIG. 2, firstly, the simulation model is established, and then the refined model is used for simulation analysis. Finally, the response surface or the genetic algorithm is used for optimization design. According to the computer capacity, the optimization method, the sample number and the iteration times are selected. Generally, the number of candidate points is three, and the minimum value of the objective function meeting the constraint condition is the optimization result. Otherwise, the parameters are modified and the optimization program is continued.
