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

The results show that at least at 12.8 GPa β-Sn→bct structure transformation was completed and no two-phase coexistence was found. By using a long-wavelength x-ray, we resolved the diffraction peaks splitting and discovered the formation of a new distorted orthorhombic structure bco from the bct structure at 31.8 GPa. The variation of the lattice parameters and their ratios with pressure further validate the observation of the bco polymorph. The bcc structure appears at 40.9 GPa and coexists with the bco phase throughout a wide pressure range of 40.9 GPa-73.1 GPa. Above 73.1 GPa, only the bcc polymorph is observed, The systematically experimental investigation confirms the phase transition sequence of Sn asβ-Sn→bct→bco→bco ＋ bcc→bcc upon compression to 108.9 GPa at room temperature.展开更多

According to the phenomenon of ex- ergy consumption always coupling with heat transfer process, the effective thermodynamic temperatures were defined, then the actual power cycle or refrigeration/heat pump cycle was transformed into the equivalent reversible Carnot or reverse Carnot cycles for thermodynamic analysis. The derived effective thermodynamic temperature of the hot reservoir of the equivalent reverse Camot cycle is the basis of the proposed method. The combined diagram of TR-h and TR-q was adopted for the analy- sis of the system performance and the exergy consumption, which takes advantage of the visual expression of the heat/work exchange and the enthalpy change, and is convenient for the calculation of the coefficient of performance and exergy con- sumptions. Take a heat pump water heater with refrigerant of R22 for example, the proposed method was systematically intro- duced, and the fitting formulas of the effective thermodynamic temperatures were given as demonstration. The results show that the proposed method has advantage and well application foreground in the performance simulation and estimation under the variable working conditions.展开更多

The minimum pressure of cBN formation is 4.0 GPa. The present condition of cBN formation is clearly lower than the eutectic temperature of Li3BN2 and BN in the Li3N-hBN system （5.5 GPa, 1610℃）. The content of cBN in the sample increases, while the content of hBN decreases with the temperature and pressure. The maximum conversion rate （5.0 GPa, 1500℃） is about 34%, which is higher than that in the hBN-Li3N system. The cBN crystals are octahedral or tetrahedral in shape and approximately 20 μm in diameter.展开更多
