AP assembled on ultrafine aluminum particle and its application to NEPE propellant

Coating modification is an important way to enhance the reactivity of aluminum powder.In this paper,ammonium perchlorate and aluminum powder were assembled into energetic microunits by liquid deposition method.Spherical particles with AP as shell and ultrafine aluminum powder as the core(Al@AP)were gained.The micromorphology results show that the coated particles are about 5μm,and the coating layer is evenly distributed on the outer surface of aluminum powder,indicating a complete coating.The energetic microunits were implanted into the nitrate ester plasticizing adhesive system(NEPE)as solid phase fillers.The effect of filler on the rheological properties,safety,mechanical properties,thermal reaction and energy properties of the system was analyzed by comparing with the raw aluminum filler.The test results show that the rheological properties,mechanical properties and pressure index of NEPE containing system Al@AP meets the requirements of solid propellant charging.Compared with Al based propellant,the mechanical sensitivity and thermal sensitivity are decreased,the safety is better,and the explosion heat of the propellant is increased by 7.8%.The engine test shows that the specific impulse is increased by 1.2 s.Al@AP can improve the energy output and safety of NEPE propellant,and has potential application prospects in high-energy propellants.

Research on the solid particle erosion wear of pipe steel for hydraulic fracturing based on experiments and numerical simulations

Erosion wear is a common failure mode in the oil and gas industry.In the hydraulic fracturing,the fracturing pipes are not only in high-pressure working environment,but also suffer from the impact of the high-speed solid particles in the fracturing fluid.Beneath such complex conditions,the vulnerable components of the pipe system are prone to perforation or even burst accidents,which has become one of the most serious risks at the fracturing site.Unfortunately,it is not yet fully understood the erosion mechanism of pipe steel for hydraulic fracturing.Therefore,this article provides a detailed analysis of the erosion behavior of fracturing pipes under complex working conditions based on experiments and numerical simulations.Firstly,we conducted erosion experiments on AISI 4135 steel for fracturing pipes to investigate the erosion characteristics of the material.The effects of impact angle,flow velocity and applied stress on erosion wear were comprehensively considered.Then a particle impact dynamic model of erosion wear was developed based on the experimental parameters,and the evolution process of particle erosion under different impact angles,impact velocities and applied stress was analyzed.By combining the erosion characteristics,the micro-structure of the eroded area,and the micro-mechanics of erosion damage,the erosion mechanism of pipe steel under fracturing conditions was studied in detail for the first time.Under high-pressure operating conditions,it was demonstrated through experiments and numerical simulations that the size of the micro-defects in the eroded area increased as the applied stress increased,resulting in more severe erosion wear of fracturing pipes.
