摘要:Cavitation erosion test of copper-bearing antibacterial duplex stainless steel in artificial seawater was carried out by using a magnetostrictive cavitation test machine,and the cumulative loss weight and weight loss curve were measured by weight loss.The cavitation erosion mechanism was analyzed by OM,ESEM,EDS,XRD and so on.The results reveal that the cavitation erosion of the copper-bearing antibacterial duplex stainless steel after aging treatment at 560 ℃is divided into initial period,accelerated period,decreased period and stable period.Compare with the base material,the cavitation damage of copper-bearing antibacterial duplex stainless presents more serious.After 50 h,the weight loss of corrosion resistance of antibacterial materials and solution material reach 2.5 mg and 4.2 mg,respectively,and the cavitation damage of copper-bearing antibacterial duplex stainless steel after antibacterial aging is reduced.The fine and dispersion Cu-rich phase in antibacterial material can enhance the cavitation erosion resistance of ferrite,however the crystal structure of austenite and the sliding hindrance caused by internal dislocation determine that the cavitation erosion resistance is the higher than the ferrite with Curich phase.The micro-hardness of the antibacterial material and solution material is increased with the increase of cavitation time,however,the hardness value of antibacterial material is always higher than that of solid solution ones due to the dispersion of aging precipitation and rich Cu phase.

摘要:In the field of ultrasonic testing on in-cast bimetal turbine combined layer,due to the combining layer approximately perpendicular to the floor,and the low reflection waveform energy caused by internal high attenuation in turbine materials,bistatic phased array detection model becomes the desirable choice.For this kind of bistatic model adopted by bimetal combined layer defection,firstly,depthdelay fast table was established according to a two-dimensional acoustic line model based on the actual turbine structure,and then a method was put forward based on the OCOG algorithm after the adjustment of receiving data delay interception,which can orientate the defections precisely.The difference between direct wave equivalent frontier and gravity of defect wave was used to solve the corresponding defect depth fitting function in advance.Finally,all waveform data of the same depth was displayed according to the amplitude imaging.The experiment shows that the detection method by OCOG algorithm has high detection rate and accurate location of the defect.

摘要:Iron is considered to be a very harmful impurity in aluminum alloys,which always accumulates in recycling aluminum alloys,so it is critical to control the detriment of the iron-rich intermetallics in order to promote scrap aluminum recycling and efficient use.The iron-rich intermetallics in Al-Cu cast alloys was reviewed,including the morphology and control methods of iron-rich intermetallics.The results reveal that the morphology and type of iron-rich intermetallic compounds in Al-Cu alloys are dependant of different alloy compositions and casting conditions,including needle-likeβ-Fe,Al3(FeMn)and Chinese scriptα-Fe,AlmFe,Al6(FeMn).The needle-likeβ-Fe is considered to be the most stable iron-rich intermetallic compounds in the heat treatment process,and other iron-rich intermetallic compounds will be transformed intoβ-Fe during the heat treatment.Modification of the morphology of ironrich intermetallic compounds is an effective way to control iron-rich intermetallic compounds in cast AlCu alloys,including neutralization,changing the casting process and applying physical fields.However,it can’t solve these problems fundamentally because the increase of iron-rich intermetallic compounds leads to the reduction of precipitates particle in the Al matrix.The future direction is to develop more effective neutralization or efficient and economic iron removal technologies.The research of iron-rich intermetallic compounds in cast Al-Cu alloys was mainly focused on gravity die casting condition,and the research of iron-rich intermetallic compounds under special conditions such as ultrasonic and pressure fields should be paid attention.

摘要:The drawing process of pure magnesium thin wire was numerically simulated by controlling the different friction coefficients,drawing speeds and the amount of pass deformations based on the constitutive equations established by the thermal compression.The results reveal that drawing force and strain non-uniformity as well as maximum main stress are increased with the increase of the friction coefficient.With the increase of drawing speed,the change of drawing force can be ignored,while the strain non-uniformity and the maximum main stress are increased gradually.The maximum main stress is increased dramatically when the drawing speed is more than 60 mm/s.With the increase of pass deformation,the fracture tendency value is increased and it is increased sharply at pass deformation exceeding 15%.Therefore,the optimized drawing parameters of pure magnesium thin wire are presented as follows:the friction coefficient of 0.08,the drawing speed less than 60 mm/s and the pass deformation in range of10%15%.

摘要:Thermal fatigue behavior of K4169 Ni-based superalloy for thin-walled investment castings in the process of aero-engines service was analyzed by the fluorescent microscopic examination method,optical microscopy(OM)and scanning electron microscope(SEM),and the fatigue crack initiation and propagation mechanism were also described.The results indicate that almost all the primary fatigue cracks are initiated from the carbides at the notch sensitivity of specimen formed during the machining process,Subsequently,only one or two small thermal fatigue cracks can continue to grow and propagate along apreferential direction with the dendrite growth direction or along the intergranular region which carbides can be easy cracked due to different thermal expanding coefficients of the matrix and the carbides,and the crack of MC carbides either at grain boundaries or within the grain interior as well as the high-temperature oxidation are played an important role on crack propagation.The rapid fatigue fracture morphology exhibits quasi-cleavage and dimples feature.
摘要:The effective control measures were adopted to improve the casting quality and to reduce or eliminate the slag inclusion defects through design of the process structure to the production process,thus improving the sealing performance of the valve and flange castings.The practical production verifies that:(1)the wax tree-assembling design of the process structure should avoid the sealing surface of the castings to be set in the slag surface of the process structure,or to set the scum riser on the casting scum surface,or to increase the processing allowance on the casting scum surface,which could reduce or avoid the slag inclusion to a certain extent.(2)during the production process,the wax impurity during wax reclamation should be reduced to avoid the inclusion falling into the shell mould cavity after dewaxing.At the same time,some measures should be paid attention,such as the selection of raw materials before casting,the deoxidization practice in the process of melting,the secondary oxidation of the molten steel and seting rational pouring temperature,to avoid or reduce effectively the defects in the castings.
