Initiation and early propagation of pitting and filiform corrosion on bare alloy AZ91 (9% Al, 1% Zn) are investigated by natural immersion corrosion tests, electrochemical measurements and microanalytical studies. Initiation sites are few. Corrosion spreads from these sites first in the form of filiform corrosion for a limited period of time and pitting which later develops into a cellular type of etching. The important factors affecting filiform corrosion are temperature, material structure and degree of polarization at the anodic sites. Filiform attack on AZ91, unlike the classical mechanisms of filiform corrosion on coated metals, is driven by hydrogen evolution reaction on the cathodic sites of the surface, occurs under significant anodic control, propagates at a high, constant speed independent of degree of polarization along preferential paths determined by compositional and crystallographic factors, and is a temporary phenomenon under open circuit conditions. Pitting corrosion is more predominant with decreasing anodic polarization. 相似文献

Surface tension measurements of different alloys of the Al-Ni system, performed both under reduced gravity conditions in parabolic flights and on ground by conventional techniques, are presented. The alloys compositions were selected on the basis of the intrinsic compound forming tendency with the aim to allow a sensitive test of model predictions. 相似文献

In the current study, the morphology including tortuosity, and the permeability of 50-mm thick commercially available 30, 40, 50, and 80 pores per inch (PPI) alumina ceramic foam filters (CFFs) have been investigated. Measurements have been taken of cell (pore), window, and strut sizes, porosity, tortuosity, and liquid permeability. Water velocities from ~0.015 to 0.77 m/s have been used to derive both first-order (Darcy) and second-order (Non-Darcy) terms for being used with the Forchheimer equation. Measurements were made using 49-mm “straight through” and 101-mm diameter “expanding flow field” designs. Results from the two designs are compared with calculations made using COMSOL 4.2a® 2D axial symmetric finite element modeling (FEM), as a function of velocity and filter PPI. Permeability results are correlated using directly measurable parameters and compared with the previously published results. Development of improved wall sealing (49 mm) and elimination of wall effects (101 mm) have led to a high level of agreement between experimental, analytic, and FEM methods (±0 to 7 pct on predicted pressure drop) for both types of experiments. Tortuosity has been determined by two inductive methods, one using cold-solidified samples at 60 kHz and the other using liquid metal at 50 Hz, giving comparable results. 相似文献

In many countries hydropower constitutes a large share of the electricity producing capacity. In the earlier regulated electricity markets, production capacities exceeded demand due to security of supply concerns. The present deregulated markets base investments upon profitability alone, and security of supply issues are claimed to be less important. Market operators trust the pricing mechanism in competitive markets to clear. Then low inflow constitutes a less problem. Several markets, both under regulated and deregulated regimes, have faced serious droughts. Some of them have experienced problems with market clearance (Chile, Brazil, California) while other markets functioned well (The Nordic market). Important features to the market response are the flexibility of demand, the pattern of inflow shortage, the storage capacities, the possibility of trade between regions with different production technologies, and the market design and concentration. We apply an empirical based market model to simulate the effects under two inflow shortage scenarios in an international market with combined hydro and thermal capacities and restricted transmission capacities. We compare the scenarios with actual events and show that the model and the real market outcome are comparable. The simulations do not reveal any problems with the functioning of the market, which should calm down the anxiousness about security of supply in deregulated markets with stochastic energy supply. 相似文献

Hot pressed ZrB2–20 vol.% SiC ultra-high temperature ceramic composites have been prepared for strength and fracture investigations. Two composites fabricated under differing hot pressing temperatures with (ZSB) and without (ZS) B4C sintering aids were selected for room temperature modulus of rupture (MOR) strength and single-edge-notch bend (SENB) fracture toughness experiments. Structure property relationships were examined for both composites. MOR and stiffness temperature dependence was also investigated up to 1500 °C. Long crack propagation studies were conducted up to 1400 °C using the double cantilevered beam geometry with half-chevron-notch initiation zones. Residual Boron-rich carbide maximum particle sizes were found to be strength limiting in ZSB billets while SiC controlled strength in ZS billets. Flexure strength decreased linearly with temperature from 1000 to 1500 °C with no visible plastic deformation prior to fracture. Similar stiffness decreases were observed with a transition temperature range of 1100–1200 °C. Long crack studies produced R-curves that show no significant toughening behavior at room temperature with some modest rising R-curve behavior appearing at higher temperatures. These studies also show the plateau toughness increases with temperature up to 1200 °C. This is supported by an observed transition from primarily transgranular fracture at room temperature to primarily intergranular fracture at high temperatures. Wake zone toughening is evident up to 1000 °C with KR rise from 0.1 to 0.5 MPa√m. Beyond 1000 °C fracture mechanism transitions to include creep zone development ahead of crack tip with wake zone toughening vanishing. 相似文献

Molybdenum and tungsten are refractory metals in the elemental form with the largest production volume in the world. The fabrication
of these refractory metals, as well as their alloys and intermetallics, using high-temperature powder metallurgy (PM) is reviewed
in this article. The primary focus is on the role of traditional high-temperature PM in producing alloys with tailor-made
properties. An insight into the bulk production of molybdenum and tungsten alloys with nano-grains is highlighted.

The optimization of metallurgical processes requires reliable data of the slag phase. This paper focuses on three properties
that are relevant to heat and mass-transfer calculations — viscosities,thermal diffusivities, and surface tensions of silicate melts. A brief account of the experimental techniques used for the
measurements of these properties, with special reference to the work carried out in the Division of Metallurgy, Royal Institute
of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden, are presented, along with the advantages and limitations. As these properties are structure-oriented,
the impact of structure on these properties is also presented. The paper is intended as a state-of-the-art review of the subject. 相似文献

In view of the applications of intermetallic carbides in the hard materials industries, the thermodynamic properties of the
C-Cr-Fe system have been measured by the use of the solid-state galvanic cell technique with CaF2 as the solid electrolyte. The thermodynamic activities of chromium have been calculated from the results of the electromotive
force (EMF) measurements. For the calculations, pure bcc-Cr was used as the standard state. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning
electron microscopy were used to identify the stable phases present in each investigated sample, as well as for establishing
the phase compositions. The experimental results obtained were compared with data calculated by the use of the TCFE3 database
available with the Thermo-Calc software. 相似文献
