There are challenges to overcoming the co-existing problems of wrinkling and splitting by the cold forming and hot forming processes. An innovative technology of ultra-low temperature forming has been invented for aluminum alloy thin shells by the new phenomenon of ‘dual enhancement effect’. That means plasticity and hardening are enhanced simultaneously at ultra-low temperatures. In this perspective, the dual enhancement effect is described, and the development, current state and prospects of this new forming method are introduced. This innovative method can provide a new approach for integral aluminum alloy components with large size, ultra-thin thickness, and high strength. An integral tank dome of rocket with 2 m in diameter was formed by using a blank sheet with the same thickness as the final component, breaking through the limit value of thickness-diameter ratio.展开更多

The main reason is that the heat absorbed by the air heater is not sufficient. In Huaneng Dongfang Power Plant, the exhaust flue gas temperature is lowered through modifications to the economizer and the air heater. The experimental results reveal that every year, each boiler could save 3 850 tons of standard coal and reduce 85 tons of SO2 and 9 000 tons of CO2 respectively after retrofit.展开更多

This research presents the thermodynamic analysis on cascade refrigeration system (CRS) with several refrigerant pairs which are R32/R170, R123/R170, R134a/R170, R404A/R170, R407c/R170, R410/R170, and the hydrocarbon (HC) refrigerant pair Propane/Ethane, namely R290/R170. Besides, the results of R22/R170 pair, which is not recommended to be used due to phase out of R22 as per Montréal Protocol, are included as base case to compare the novel hydrocarbon pairs in CRS and the old trend of refrigerant pairs. Thermodynamic properties of all these pairs were investigated and compared under different intermediate temperature used in CRS heat exchanger, which thermally connected both the Low and High temperature cycles (LTC) and (HTC). By applying the first law of thermodynamics, the coefficients of performance (COPs) and the specific power consumptions (SPC) in kW/TR are presented and compared. In addition, by applying the second law of thermodynamics the exergetic efficiencies were estimated. The results reveal the promising opportunity of using the HC pair (R290/R170). The minimum SPC in kW/TR is recorded for the pair R123/R170. One the other hand, the highest exegetic efficiency values are observed to be 40%, 38%, and 35% for the pairs R123/R170, R290/R170, and R134/R170, respectively. This research concludes that the HC pair (R290/R170) is highly recommended for CRS applications either to transport the COVID-19 or store it in cold storage rooms in hospitals and clinics. All precautionary measures should be carefully applied in design and operation of HC pair (R290/R170) due to its flammability hazard.展开更多

With the development of engine technology, exhaust manifolds tend to work above 1 000 ℃ and this may be even higher in the future. For developing a new kind of steel to satisfy these requirements,the effects of tungsten (W)addition on the high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance of 18CrNbTi ferritic stainless steel are discussed in this study. The test results show that W enhances high-temperature strength at 1 000 ℃ and significantly improves oxidation resistance. However, W addition tends to degrade oxide layer adhesion,causing spalling during alternate hot and cold conditions.展开更多

The hightemperature oxidation kinetic curve of Cr20 Ni12 Si2 RE at 1 050 ℃ was obtained using the weighting method. The oxidation curves exhibit the parabolic law at 1 050 ℃; after 250 h of oxidation,the mass gain was 22 g/m^2. The morphology,structure,and composition of the oxide film were examined using scanning electron microscopy and Xray diffraction methods. A thin,stable,and dense spinel oxide film obtained after 250 h of oxidation at 1 050 ℃ was mainly composed of( Mn_(0.87)Fe_(0.13))( Mn_(0.13)Fe_(0.87)Cr) O_4 and Cr_2 O_3 with a silicon-containing oxide underneath. The addition of rare earth elements was found to restrict further diffusion of metallic atoms from the austenite toward the oxide film,and consequently,led to a low growth rate of the oxide film. The inner silicon-containing oxide was produced by the diffusion of oxygen atoms and enhanced the coherent strength of the oxide film.展开更多
