Effects ofslip mode on microstructure evolution and compressive flow behavior of extruded dilute Mg−0.5Bi−0.5Sn−0.5Mn alloy

The influence of the slip mode on the microstructure evolution and compressive flow behavior at different strains in an extruded dilute Mg−0.5Bi−0.5Sn−0.5Mn alloy was analyzed through electron backscatter diffraction,X-ray diffraction,transmission electron microscopy,and hot compression tests.The results showed that at a low strain of 0.05,the basal,pyramidaland<c+a>slip modes were simultaneously activated.Nevertheless,at the middle stage of deformation(strain of 0.1,0.2 and 0.5),theslip mode was difficult to be activated and<c+a>slip mode became dominant.The deformation process between strains of 0.2 and 0.5 was primarily characterized by the softening effect resulting from the simultaneous occurrence of continuous dynamic recrystallization and discontinuous dynamic recrystallization.Ultimately,at strain of 0.8,a dynamic equilibrium was established,with the flow stress remaining constant due to the interplay between the dynamic softening brought about by discontinuous dynamic recrystallization and the work-hardening effect induced by the activation of the basalslip mode.

Hot deformation behavior of Fe-29Ni-17Co alloy

Hot compression tests were carried out on a Fe-29Ni-17Co alloy in the temperature range of 900 ℃ to 1200 ℃ and at strain rates of 0.001-1 s-1. Dynamic recrystallization was found responsible for flow softening during hot compression. The flow behavior was successfully analyzed by the hyperbolic sine equation and the corresponding material constants A, n and αwere determined. The value of apparent activation energy was determined as 423 kJ/mol. The peak and steady state strains showed simple power-law dependence on the Zener-Hollomon parameter. The dynamic recrystallization kinetics was analyzed using Avrami equation and the corresponding exponent was determined to be about 2.7. This value, higher than 2 reported in the literatures, is associated with the mechanism of continuous dynamic recrystallization in the studied alloy. The flow curve up to the peak was modeled by the Cingara equation and the strain exponent, c, was determined about 0.85. The higher value of c compared with the value of 0.2 which has been reported for some stainless steels fortified the idea of extended dynamic recovery or continuous dynamic recrystallization in the studied alloy.

Validation of dynamic cavitation model for unsteady cavitating flow on NACA66

Unsteady cavitating flow is extremely complicated and brings more serious damages and unignorable problems compared with steady cavitating flow.CFD has become a practical way to model cavitation;however,the popularly used full cavitation model cannot reflect the pressure-change that the bubble experiences during its life path in the highly unsteady flow like cloud cavitating.Thus a dynamic cavitation model(DCM)is proposed and it has been considered to have not only the first-order pressure effects but also zero-order effect and can provide greater insight into the physical process of bubble producing,developing and collapsing compared to the traditional cavitation model.DCM has already been validated for steady cavitating flow,and the results were reported.Furthermore,DCM is designed and supposed to be more accurate and efficient in modeling unsteady cavitating flow,which is also the purpose of this paper.The basic characteristic of the unsteady cavitating flow,such as the vapor volume fraction distribution and the evolution of pressure amplitude and frequency at different locations of the hydrofoil,are carefully studied to validate DCM.It is found that not only these characteristics mentioned above accord well with the experimental results,but also some detailed transient flow information is depicted,including the re-entrant jet flow that caused the shedding of the cavity,and the phenomenon of two-peak pressure fluctuation in the vicinity of the cavity closure in a cycle.The numerical results validate the capability of DCM for the application of modeling the complicated unsteady cavitating flow.

Research on Wet Steam Spontaneous Condensing Flows Considering Phase Transition and Slip

A new dual-fluid model considering phase ansition and velocity slip was proposed in this paper and the Cunningham correction was used in the droplet resistance calculation. This dual-fluid model was applied to the numerical simulations of wet steam flow in a 2D LAVAL nozzle and in the White cascade respectively. The results of two simulations demonstrate that the model is reliable. Meanwhile, the spontaneous condensing flow in White cascade was analyzed and it infers that the irreversible loss caused by condensation accounts for the largest share （about 8.78% of inlet total pressure） in total pressure loss while the loss caused by velocity slip takes the smallest share （nearly 0.42%）, and another part of total pressure loss caused by pneumatic factors contributes a less share than condensation, i.e. almost 3.95% of inlet total pressure.
