Susceptor-assisted fast microwave sintering of TiN reinforced SiAlON composites in a single mode cavity

In the present study, 17 wt % TiN reinforced α-β SiAlON composites were sintered at low temperature by susceptor-assisted microwave heating. The effect of TiN addition on dielectrical properties of starting powders, as well as the influence of sintering temperature on phase evolution, microstructure development and mechanical properties of α/β-SiAlON-TiN composites were investigated. The obtained results showed that TiN addition increased the microwave absorbing properties which is reflected in the peak sintering temperature. Thus, the α:β ratio decreased and mechanical properties were improved, especially the fracture toughness of the composites. Furthermore, an estimate of energy consumption during microwave assisted sintering at the laboratory scale is presented. As a result, the highest values for relative density (97.1%), Vickers hardness (13.35 ± 0.47 GPa), and fracture toughness (7.52 ± 0.54 MPa m^1/2) were obtained by microwave sintering for 30 min at 1300 °C.     

Waveguide external cavity narrow linewidth semiconductor lasers

Narrow linewidth light source is a prerequisite for high-performance coherent optical communication and sensing.Waveguide-based external cavity narrow linewidth semiconductor lasers(WEC-NLSLs)have become a competitive and attractive candidate for many coherent applications due to their small size,volume,low energy consumption,low cost and the ability to integrate with other optical components.In this paper,we present an overview of WEC-NLSLs from their required technologies to the state-of-the-art progress.Moreover,we highlight the common problems occurring to current WEC-NLSLs and show the possible approaches to resolving the issues.Finally,we present the possible development directions for the next phase and hope this review will be beneficial to the advancements of WEC-NLSLs.     

MHD mixed convection of a Cu–water nanofluid flow through a channel with an open trapezoidal cavity and an elliptical obstacle

In the current work, numerical simulations are achieved to study the properties and the characteristics of fluid flow and heat transfer of (Cu–water) nanofluid under the magnetohydrodynamic effects in a horizontal rectangular canal with an open trapezoidal enclosure and an elliptical obstacle. The cavity lower wall is grooved and represents the heat source while the obstacle represents a stationary cold wall. On the other hand, the rest of the walls are considered adiabatic. The governing equations for this investigation are formulated, nondimensionalized, and then solved by Galerkin finite element approach. The numerical findings were examined across a wide range of Richardson number (0.1 ≤ Ri ≤ 10), Reynolds number (1 ≤ Re ≤ 125), Hartmann number (0 ≤ Ha ≤ 100), and volume fraction of nanofluid (0 ≤ φ ≤ 0.05). The current study's findings demonstrate that the flow strength increases inversely as the Reynolds number rises, which pushes the isotherms down to the lower part of the trapezoidal cavity. The Nu_avg rises as the Ri rise, the maximum Nu_avg = 10.345 at Ri = 10, Re = 50, ϕ = 0.05, and Ha = 0; however, it reduces with increasing Hartmann number. Also, it increase by increasing ϕ, at Ri = 10, the Nu_avg increased by 8.44% when the volume fraction of nanofluid increased from (ϕ = 0–0.05).

Theoretical and Experimental Studies for the Transient Response of Cavity

During the transient state of aero-engine,cavity has evidently transient characteristics in the secondary air system.To investigate transient characteristics,theoretical and experimental studies were implemented for both static and rotating cavities.First of all,the typical transient response phenomena in secondary air system were investigated based on the basic concepts of the dynamic process.According to the basic theory of gas dynamics,the causes of transient phenomena were analyzed in two aspects,external disturbance,and system physical properties.Several dimensionless parameters were introduced to analyze the transient response characteristics of air system.Second,the experimental results of the static cavity indicated that the actual response time increased with the increase of the inlet pressure.The experimental results of the rotor-stator cavity showed that the low rotational speed on the response process had little effect,and the response time gradually increased when the speed continued to increase.Third,the test results of multiple components suggested that when the valve was opening the inlet pressure of the static cavity increased quickly and then reached a stable value,but the pressure of the static cavity,stable pressure cavity and rotor-stator chamber rose gradually.It was also obtained the actual response time of them was increased.The closer the measuring points were to the disturbance source,the shorter the delay time was.     

机盖外板拉伸模排气孔对成形质量的影响

由于汽车造型有着各种突出的棱线,在拉伸模的冲压过程中,板料和上、下模的各个棱线接触,在型腔内部形成形状各异的密闭空间。如果在上下模闭合时,模具排气不通畅,密闭空间内的空气会对产品造成不可恢复的鼓包或凹坑,此缺陷严重影响了整车的外观品质。通过成形性分析,查看各个气腔的形成过程,并通过推理、计算空气在排气孔处的排气速度,从而得出在不产生面品缺陷时的排气孔所应有的数量及大小,使整车SE阶段及模具设计阶段有效预防,避免后期无法增加排气孔的尴尬情况。

Waves in generalized thermo-viscoelastic infinite continuum with cylindrical cavity due to three-phase-lag time-nonlocal heat transfer

Abstract

Generalized thermoelastic interactions due to three-phase-lag time-nonlocal heat transfer in a Kelvin-Voigt type infinitely extended visco-thermoelastic continuum with cylindrical cavity has been investigated. The two-temperature generalized thermoelasticity theory has also been taken into account. The problem has been solved in the domain of Laplace on the assumption that the surface of the cavity is free from traction and is subjected to a smooth and time-dependent-heating effect. Laplace inversion of the transformed solutions has been carried out numerically. The obtained numerical data for different considerations are plotted in graphs to study the effects of time-nonlocal parameter, two-temperature parameter and visco-thermoelastic relaxation parameter on different thermoelastic quantities of physical interest.
