Abstract
This study aims to harness computational intelligence for optimizing efficiency and intelligence in designing UV-LED(Ultraviolet Light-Emitting Diodes)surface disinfection devices.It developed a comprehensive mathematical model of the radiation field for UV-LED surface disinfection based on radiation theory,deriving a series of mathematical equations.In this study,we propose a mathematical regression of the radiation pattern curve to address the variability of UV-LED patterns,surpassing conventional idealized radiation models which may not accurately reflect real-world conditions.This approach aims to significantly minimize the disparity between measured and calculated data.The introduction of a chemical actinometer addressed the challenge of simultaneously measuring irradiation at multiple points in this field.The study accurately determined the loss of UV energy due to reflections on the surface of the chemical actinometer solution based on the Fresnel equation.Subsequently,a VBA program was developed to facilitate simulation,optimization,and analysis of the UV field in UV-LED disinfection devices.The study conducted both experiments(actual measurements)and simulations using a specific array of UV-LEDs.The results demonstrated a strong correlation between simulated and measured values,validating the accuracy of both the mathematical model and VBA program.In the example,the VBA program optimized the UV-LED configuration intelligently.It showed that UV-LEDs with emission angles of 90°,45°,and 30° in the radiation pattern achieved optimal disinfection effects(resulting in the most even radiation field)when the ratio of irradiation distance to lamp spacing was 0.4,0.8,and 1.6,respectively.Additionally,the study investigated the characteristics of UV-LEDs and accurately determined their UV output.This was validated through experiments using the advanced Ultraviolet Space Radiation Distribution Measurement system.This study innovatively utilizes mathematical models and computational methods to optimize the design of UV-LED surface disinfection facilities effectively.With the aid of a VBA program,the proposed method rigorously and accurately mathematically regresses the radiation pattern curve,enabling versatile application across various irradiation patterns.
