There are many parameters which affect the performance of the screw powder feeder, such as the shapes of the helical screw impeller, the number of screw pitches, etc. This paper presents an analysis of a gas-solid two-phase through screw powder feeder by using a commercial Computational Fluid Dynamics（CFD） code, Fluent. The K-ε model is used to simulate gas flow. Particle trajectory is obtained by the use of a discrete phase model. The results show the effects of gas velocity and panicle size on the transportation performance.展开更多

The laser sintering experiments of polymer-coated molybdenum powder were conducted by using the self-developed selective laser sintering machine (HLRP-350I). The method of microscopic analysis was used to investigate the dynamic laser sintering process of polymer-coated molybdenum powder. Based on the study, the laser sintering mechanisms of polymer-coated molybdenum powder were presented. It is found that the mechanism is viscous flow when the laser sintering temperature is between 100 ℃ and 160 ℃, which can be described by a two-sphere model; and the mechanism is melting /solidification when the temperature is above 160 ℃.展开更多

The result showed that the Al2O3 powder, which has much smaller particle size, could improve the microstructure and the mechanical properties of castabie under room temperature and high temperature. With the same powder size, the room temperature strength of the castabie added with Al2O3 powder properties of which were altered by adding mineralizing agent, was higher than that of the castabie added with common Al2O3 powder, but the flowability of these three different castabie was almost thesame.展开更多
