This paper demonstrates how the heat affected zone that results from welding could be identified nondestructively using MBN （magnetic Barkhausen noise） technique. A stress concentration region was created by placing a weld bead on a marine steel plate used in ship construction. MBN measurements were made on the back surface of the welded plate along the weld direction and perpendicular to it in a line that crosses the weld bead. The stress distribution as deduced from the MBN measurements was found to be anisotropic in the material of the heat affected zone. The heat induced anisotropy was completely eliminated by shot peening the HAZ material as revealed by MBN intensity. It was concluded that the directional MBN measurements could be used to characterize the induced anisotropy and hence assess the thermal residual stresses distribution near a localized stresses concentration regions imposed by welding.展开更多

A two-dimensional numerical model based on a 5000 t/d cement plant is proposed to for a study on the gas-solid coupled heat transfer process between the cooling air and clinker in a grate cooler. In this study, we use the Fluent dynamic mesh technique and porous media model through which the transient temperature distribution with the clinker motion process and steady temperature and pressure distribution are obtained. We validate the numerical model with the operating data of the cooling air outlet temperature. Then, we discuss the amount of mid-temperature air outlet and average diameter of clinker particles, which affect the heat effective utilization and cooling air pressure drop in clinker layer. We found that after adding one more mid-temperature air outlet, the average temperature of the air flowing into the heat recovery boiler increases by 29.04℃ and the ratio of heat effective utilization increases by 5.3%. This means heat recovery is more effective on adding one more mid-temperature air outlet. Further, the smaller the clinker particles, the more is the pressure drop in clinker layer; thus more power consumption is needed by the cooling fan.展开更多
