Then, the effects of high-pressure heat treatments on the solid-state phase transformation and the microstructures of Cu61.13Zn33.94A14.93 alloys were investigated. The results show that high-pressure heat treatments can refine the grains and can change the preferred orientation from (111) to (200) of α phase. Compared with the as-cast alloy, the sample with high-pressure heat treatment has finer grains, lower β'→β and/β→β' transformation temperature and activation energy. Furthermore, we found that high cooling rate favours the formation of fine needle-like α phase in the range of 5-20℃/min.展开更多

This transformation is different from those detected under other conditions. The effects of some factors (e.g. time, temperature, and pressure) on the solid phase transformation of sPS in supercritical CO2 were analyzed in detail. Experimental results show that longer time, higher temperature or higher pressure favors the transformation of the a form crystals to the beta form crystals.展开更多

The results indicate that it is possible to produce the AZ61-0.7Si alloy with a non-dendritic microstructure by semi-solid isothermal heat treatment, and adding 0.4% Sb can accelerate the non-dendritic microstructural evolution of the alloy. After being treated at 580 ℃ for 120 min, the Sb-modified AZ61-0.7Si alloys can obtain a non-dendritic microstructure with a higher liquid content (16%-18%) and finer unmelted primary solid particles (43-53 μm) compared with the alloy without Sb modification. In addition, after being treated at 580 ℃ for 120 min, the Mg2Si phases in the AZ61-0.7Si alloys with and without Sb modification change from initial Chinese script shape to granule and/or polygon shapes.展开更多

vertical rectangular conduit. Experimental results show that heat transfer of gas carrying evaporation is enhanced
and the superheat of liquid in contact with heating surface lowers remarkably by introducing solid particles. Nucleate
boiling on the heating surface is suppressed to a considerable degree. The mechanism of heat transfer enhancement
by fluidized solid particles is analyzed with the consideration of collisions of solid particles with the boiling vapor
