The effects of the holding time, chamber pressure, mole fraction of Al and melting temperature on the real vapor pressure of Al element in the vacuum chamber were analyzed. Because of the impeding effect of the real vapor pressure on the evaporation loss rate, within a short time (less than 10?s), the real vapor pressure tends to a constant value. When the chamber pressure is less than the saturated vapor pressure of the Al component, the real vapor pressure of Al is equal to the chamber pressure. While when the chamber pressure is larger than the saturated vapor pressure, the real vapor pressure is equal to the saturated vapor pressure of the Al element of the same condition.展开更多

In order to incorporate the effect of the moving surface of the structure as well as the free surface motion, the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian formulation is employed as the basis of the finite element spatial discretization. For numerical integration in time, the fraction,step method is used. This method is useful because one can use the same linear interpolation function for both velocity and pressure. The method is applied to the nonlinear interaction of a structure and a tuned liquid damper. All computations are performed with a personal computer.展开更多

The results indicate that in B2 NiAl and Ll 2 Ni 3Al alloys, some of the valance electrons of Ni and Al atoms are localized, which leads to a lower free electron density of the alloy. The mean free electron density of the binary Ni Al alloy decreases with increasing Al content. The open volume of defects on grain boundary of the Ni 3Al is larger than that of monovacancy or dislocation. Structural vacancies and microvoids are found in B2 NiAl alloys with Al content above 45%(mole fraction), and the concentration of the vacancies and open volume of microvoids will increase with higher Al content. The addition of Cr, Zr and Fe into a NiAl alloy can increase its mean free electron density and reduce the open volume of defects on its grain boundary, while with addition of Mg into the NiAl alloy, its mean free electron density decreases and open volume of boundary defects increases.展开更多

The results show that minor Er in the studied alloy exists in the form of Al 3Er,only a few of Er in α Al based solid solution .Primary Al 3Er particles formed during solidification were often found at the center of aluminum grains and acted as heterogeneous nucleus, also increased the rate of nucleation, therefore the grain are remarkably refined. Trace Er addition to high pure aluminum is able to increase the mechanical properties of high pure Al, which is caused by fine grain strengthening, substructure strengthening and precipitation strengthening. The recrystallization temperature of Er doped aluminum increases above 50 ℃, which is caused by the pinning effect of highly dispersed fine Al 3Er precipitates on dislocations and sub grain boundaries.展开更多

The results indicated that the simultaneous additions of 0.1 wt% S and 0. 1 wt% Zr to low segregation alloys increase the oxidation rate of Al2O3-forming alloy and improve the scale adherence. The addition of 0.1 wt% Zr can ,minimize the negative effects of S on the adherence of Al2O3 scale. Low amounts of S(≤50 ppm wt) have no obviously negative effects on the adherence of Cr2O3 scale formed on one of the low segregation superalloys.展开更多

The numerical analysis of the opening and closing behaviour of as St. Jude valve suggested that: 1. The whole opening and closing process of an artificial mechanical valve is consisted of four phases: (1) Opening phase; (2) Opening maintenance phase; (3) Closing phase; (4) Closing maintenance phase. 2. The St. Jude medical valve closes with prominent regurgitat which results in water-hammer effect. 3. During the opening and closing process of the St. Jude valve,high shear stresses occur in the middle region of the two leaflets and on the valve ring. The present model has made a breakthrough on the coupling computational analysis considering the interactive movement of the valve and blood.展开更多

The effects of rare earth elements on the microstructures and mechanical properties of the high strength cast alloy Al-Cu-Mg-Si were investigated. The result shows that the addition of rare earth elements can change the microstructures in refining the grain size of the alloy and making the needle-like and laminar eutectic Si to a granular Si. With the increase of the rare earth, the tensile strength and elongation of the alloy increase first and then fall down. The mechanical properties of the alloy will reach the highest value when the content of rare earth elements is about 0.7%.展开更多
