The specimens were held at 1 050℃for 300 s, then quenched into 20℃recycling water for 10 s as a cycle. During thermal fatigue,γ' precipitates changed typically from cubical to irregular shape after 10 cycles, to complex configuration after 20 cycles and raft-like shape after 30 cycles. The very fineγ' particles precipitated inter the originalγ' particles. The elastic energy dominated morphological evolution of largeγ' precipitates, and the thermal stress induced the directional growth of precipitates that minimized the total energy of the system, and the nucleation theory controlled the formation of fineγ' precipitate. The results show that the volume fraction ofγ' precipitates is increased with the increase of heating/cooling cycles, which improves the mechanical property of this alloy.展开更多

The composition and structure of the oxidation layer were analyzed. It is found that the oxidation initiates at the grain boundaries. During the oxidation, Fe atoms diffuse toward the surface and form the outside oxidation layer as the oxide of iron. The transition oxidation layer lies between the oxidation layer and the matrix which is enriched with Nb, Ti and Si, forming FeTiO5, Nb2O5,Fe2SiO4 and TiO2. Phosphorus hardly influences the thermal expansion coefficient of IN909 alloy. However, it increases the formation ofεphase at the boundary of the transition oxidation layer and matrix. As a result, the oxidation rate is decreased efficiently because theεphase inhibits the diffusion of the element such as iron from the matrix to the oxidation layer.展开更多

The importance of double-diffusion in global oceans’ salt and heat fluxes, water-mass formation and mixing, and circulation is increasingly recognized. However, such an important physical process in the ocean has not been well studied. One of the reasons is the difficulty of parameterizing and quantifying the processes. The paper presented here attempts to quantify the double-diffusive fluxes of salt and heat in the ocean. Previous qualitative analysis by applying the water-mass Turner angle, mTu, to the North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW) layer showed a favorable condition for salt-fingering in the upper NPIW due to the overlying warm/salty water above the cold/fresh NPIW core, and a doubly-stable condition in the lower NPIW where potential temperature decreases with depth while salinity increases, inducing double stratification with respect to both potential temperature and salinity. The present study gives a quantitative estimate of double-diffusive fluxes of salt and heat contributed by salt-fingering in the upper NPIW layer.展开更多

An effective method for investigating diffusion properties in equilibrium systems is discussed. With this method, we demonstrate that for one-dimensional systems, using the indices of particles as the space variable, which has been accepted as a convention, may lead to misleading conclusions. We then show that though in one-dimensional systems there is no general connection between energy diffusion and heat conduction, however, a general connection between heat diffusion and heat conduction may exist. Relaxation behavior of local energy current fluctuations and that of local heat current fluctuations are also studied. We find that they are significantly different,though the global energy current equals the globe heat current.展开更多

This study calculated G0 in the Heihe River Basin based on the thermal diffusion equation, using the observed soil temperature and moisture profiles, with the aim to analyze the spatial-temporal variations of G0 over the heterogeneous area(with alpine grassland, farmland, and forest). The soil ice content was estimated by the difference in liquid soil water content before and after the melting of the frozen soil and its impact on the calculation of G0 was further analyzed. The results show that:(1) the diurnal variation of G0 is obvious under different underlying surfaces in the Heihe River Basin, and the time when the daily maximum value of G0 occurs is a few minutes to several hours earlier than that of the net radiation flux, which is related to the soil texture, soil moisture, soil thermal properties, and the vegetation coverage;(2) the net radiation flux varies with season and reaches the maximum in summer and the minimum in winter, whereas G0 reaches the maximum in spring rather than in summer, because more vegetation in summer hinders energy transfer into the soil;(3) the proportions of G0 to the net radiation flux are different with seasons and surface types, and the mean values in January are 25.6% at the Arou site, 22.9% at the Yingke site and 4.3% at the Guantan site, whereas the values in July are 2.3%, 1.6% and 0.3%, respectively; and(4) G0 increases when the soil ice content is included in thermal diffusion equation, which improves the surface energy balance closure by 4.3%.展开更多

The thermal conductivity of β-SiAION was calculated from thermal diffusivity, heat capacity and density and it decreased and then kept almost constant with increasing of temperature. Two different models representing effective thermal conductivity were established and the various parameters of these models were simulated based on the results from the present work. The fitted regression lines were in good agreement with the experimental values.展开更多
