Hot corrosion characteristics of Ni-20Cr-18W superalloy in molten salt

The hot corrosion behavior of a Ni?20Cr?18W (mass fraction, %) superalloy in the mixture of 75%Na 2 SO 4?25%NaCl melts at 700 and 800 °C was studied. The results demonstrate that the alloy suffers from serious hot corrosion attack in the mixture molten salt. Meanwhile, the degradation of the substrate accelerates with increasing the corrosion temperature. The corrosion layer has an obvious duplex microstructure, and the Cr-depletion zone is detected obviously nearby the inner corrosion layer. The main corrosion products at 700 and 800 °C are almost the same and mainly include NiO, Cr2O3and Ni3S2, but a trace amount of NiCrO2 is detected at 800 °C for 20 h. The hot corrosion mechanism and formation mechanism of corrosion scales of the Ni?20Cr?18W superalloy in the molten salt are proposed.

Pyrolysis of CL20-BTF Co-crystal via ReaxFF-lg Reactive Force Field Molecular Dynamics Simulations

To obtain detailed information on the potential energy, the evolution of species, the initial reaction paths, and thermal decomposition products, we conducted simulations on pyrolysis process of CL20/BTF co-crystal using the ReaxFF/lg reaction force field, with temperature set at 2000 K to 3000 K. With the analysis of evolution curves of potential energy based on exponential function, we obtain the overall characteristic time. Via a description of the total package reaction with classical Arrhenius law, we obtain the activation energy of CL20/BTF co-crystal： Ea=60.8 kcal/mol. Based on the initial path of CL20/BTF co-crystal thermal decomposition we studied, we conclude that N-NO2 bond of CL20 molecules breaks first, working as a dominant role in the initial stage of thermal decomposition under the condition of different temperatures, and that all CL20 molecules completely decompose before BTF molecular regardless of different temperatures. We also find that the main products of CL20/BTF co-crystal are NO2, NO, NO3, HNO, O2, N2, H2O, CO2, N2O, and HONO, etc., on which the temperature forms certain influence.

Intelligent prediction on performance of high-temperature heat pump systems using different refrigerants

Two new binary near-azeotropic mixtures named M1 and M2 were developed as the refrigerants of the high-temperature heat pump(HTHP).The experimental research was used to analyze and compare the performance of M1 and M2-based in the HTHP in different running conditions.The results demonstrated the feasibility and reliability of M1 and M2 as new high-temperature refrigerants.Additionally,the exploration and analyses of the support vector machine(SVM)and back propagation(BP)neural network models were made to find a practical way to predict the performance of HTHP system.The results showed that SVM-Linear,SVM-RBF and BP models shared the similar ability to predict the heat capacity and power input with high accuracy.SVM-RBF demonstrated better stability for coefficient of performance prediction.Finally,the proposed SVM model was used to assess the potential of the M1 and M2.The results indicated that the HTHP system using M1 could produce heat at the temperature of 130°C with good performance.

Elevated-temperature mechanical properties and thermal stability of Al-Cu-Mg-Ag heat-resistant alloy

The elevated-temperature mechanical properties and thermal stability of Al-Cu-Mg-Ag heat-resistant alloy were studied by tensile test, transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM), respectively. The results show that with the increase of Ag content, the tensile strength and yield strength increase, which is attributed to the increase of the precipitations number and the decrease of the size. The same conclusions are drawn in the study of increasing Mg content. The alloy possesses excellent thermal stability. At 100-150 °C, the strength of the under-aged alloy increases at the initial stage, and after reaching the peak strength, it remains the same. The secondary precipitation of the under-aged alloy occurs in the process of exposure at 150℃, and it distributes diffusely after thermal exposed for 20 h. Then, the tensile strength decreases gradually with increasing the thermal exposure time at 200-250 °C. The strength of the peak-aged alloy decreases gradually, and the precipitation grows up, but the number decreases gradually with prolonging the exposure time at 100-250 °C. The strength of two kinds of alloys decreases with elevating of exposure temperature.

Evaluation of Liquid Water Content in Thermal Efficient Heating Mechanism Using Water Vapor for Industrial Furnace

Thermal efficiency has improved by using high-temperature vapor produced by spraying water vapor along with flame from a burner. This study aims to apply high-temperature steam heating mechanism in a high-efficient industrial furnace and household gas range. Past studies in this laboratory show that the heat transfer is promoted due to the appropriate amount of water content in each convection, radiation heat transfer. Then, water vapor-added industrial metal melting furnace has been researched. However, the existing furnace was intended to evaluate only the effect of water vapor except measuring surrounding environment, for example temperature and humidity. In this study, the effect of surrounding environment to the furnace is examined, and possibility of heat transfer enhancement is estimated. As a result, surrounding experimental condition has little effect on the change of heating ability, while this experimental furnace shows gradual degradation of heating ability in every experimental trial. Then optimum amount of water supply to the apparatus was discussed. Too much water injection leads to more consumption of heat as latent heat of water in phase change, and exceeds the effect of water vapor in heat transfer. There is a possibility of suitable total water supply, despite that there is no significant change in gas usage in water injection case compared with no water injection.

Non-isothermal decomposition kinetics of hydrogarnet in sodium carbonate solution

Carbonation decomposition of hydrogarnet is a significant reaction of the calcification-carbonation new method for alumina production by using low-grade bauxite.In this work,non-isothermal decomposition kinetics of hydrogarnet in sodium carbonate solution was studied by high-pressure differential scanning calorimetry(HPDSC) at different heating rates of 2,5,8,10,15 and 20 K·min^(-1),respectively.The activation energy(E_α) was calculated with the help of isoconversional method(model-free),and the reaction mechanism was determined by the differential equation method.The calculated activation energy of this reaction was 115.66 kJ·mol^(-1).Furthermore,the mechanism for decomposition reaction is Avrami-Erofeev(n=1.5),and the decomposition process is diffusion-controlled.

Selective laser melting 3D printing of Ni-based superalloy： understanding thermodynamic mechanisms

A mesoscopic model has been established to investigate the thermodynamic mechanisms and densification behavior of nickel-based superalloy during additive manufacturing/three-dimensional （3D） printing （AM/3DP） by numerical simulation, using a finite volume method （FVM）. The influence of the applied linear energy density （LED） on dimensions of the molten pool, thermodynamic mechanisms within the pool, bubbles migration and resultant densification behavior of AM/3DP-processed superalloy has been discussed. It reveals that the center of the molten pool slightly shifts with a lagging of 4 ktm towards the center of the moving laser beam. The Mar- angoni convection, which has various flow patterns, plays a crucial role in intensifying the convective heat and mass transfer, which is responsible for the bubbles migration and densification behavior of AM/3DP-processed parts. At an optimized LED of 221.5 J/m, the outward convection favors the numerous bubbles to escape from the molten pool easily and the resultant considerably high relative density of 98.9 % is achieved. However, as the applied LED further increases over 249.5 J/m, the convection pattern is apparently intensified with the formation of vortexes and the bubbles tend to be entrapped by the rotating flow within the molten pool, resulting in a large amount of residual porosity and a sharp reduction in densification of the superalloy. The change rules of the relative density and the corresponding distribution of porosity obtained by experiments are in accordance with the simulation results.
