The empirical equations were established between the cooling rate and the average sizes of secondary and tertiary γ′ precipitates within grains and tertiary γ′ precipitates at grain boundaries, as well as the apparent width of grain boundaries. The results show that the average sizes of secondary or tertiary γ′ precipitates are inversely correlated with the cooling rate. The shape of secondary γ′ precipitates within grains changes from butterfly-like to spherical with the increase of cooling rate, but all the tertiaryγ′ precipitates formed are spherical in shape. It is also found that tertiary γ′ may be precipitated in the latter part of the cooling cycle only if the cooling rate is not faster than 4.3℃/s, and the apparent width of grain boundaries decreases linearly with the increase of cooling rate.展开更多

文摘This paper is concerned with an initial boundary value problem for the planar magnetohydrodynamic compressible flow with temperature dependent heat conductivity in a half-line.In particular,the transverse magnetic field is assumed to satisfy the Neumann boundary condition,which was first investigated by Kazhikhov in 1987.We establish the global existence of the unique strong solutions to the MHD equations without any smallness conditions on the initial data.More precisely,our result can be regarded as a natural generalization of Kazhikov’s result for applying the constant heat-conductivity in bounded domains to the degenerate case in unbounded domains.

文摘The Ni−25%X(X=Fe,Co,Cu,molar fraction)solid solutions were prepared and then doped into MgH_(2) through high-energy ball milling.The initial dehydrogenation temperatures of MgH_(2)/Ni−25%X composites are all decreased by about 90℃relative to the as-milled pristine MgH_(2).The Ni−25%Co solid solution exhibits the most excellent catalytic effect,and the milled MgH_(2)/Ni−25%Co composite can release 5.19 wt.%hydrogen within 10 min at 300℃,while the as-milled pristine MgH_(2) can only release 1.78 wt.%hydrogen.More importantly,the dehydrogenated MgH_(2)/Ni−25%Co composite can absorb 5.39 wt.%hydrogen at 275℃within 3 min.The superior hydrogen sorption kinetics of MgH_(2)/Ni−25%Co can be ascribed to the actual catalytic effect of in-situ formed Mg_(2)Ni(Co)compounds.First-principles calculations show that the hydrogen absorption/desorption energy barriers of Mg/MgH_(2) systems decrease significantly after doping with transition metal atoms,which interprets well the improved hydrogen sorption properties of MgH_(2) catalyzed by Ni-based solid solutions.

文摘With the evolution of nickel-based single crystal superalloys,there is an increase in heavy elements such as Re and Ru.This has made solutal convection more pronounced during the directional solidification process,leading to solute redistribution and increasing the risk of casting defects such as low-angle grain boundaries.To avoid casting defects,downward directional solidification(DWS)method is adopted to eliminate solutal convection and change solute redistribution.However,there is currently no in-situ characterization or quantitative simulation studying the solute redistribution during DWS and upward directional solidification(UWS)processes.A multicomponent phase field simulation coupled with lattice Boltzmann method was employed to quantitatively investigate changes in dendrite morphology,solutal convection and deviation of dendrite tips from the perspective of solute redistribution during UWS and DWS processes.The simulation of microstructure agrees well with the experimental results.The mechanism that explains how solutal convection affects side branching behavior is depicted.A novel approach is introduced to characterize dendrite deviation,elucidating the reasons why defects are prone to occur under the influence of natural convection and solute redistribution.

文摘Single-phase concentrated solid solution alloys(SP-CSAs),including high-entropy alloys,have received extensive attention due to their excellent irradiation resistance.In this work,displacement cascade simulations are conducted using the molecular dynamics method to study the evolution of defects in Ni-based SP-CSAs.Compared with pure Ni,the NiCr,NiCo,and NiCu alloys exhibit a larger number of Frankel pairs(FPs)in the thermal peak stage,but a smaller number of surviving FPs.However,the NiFe alloy displays the opposite phenomenon.To explain these different observations for NiFe and other alloys,the formation energy and migration energy of interstitials/vacancies are calculated.In the NiFe alloy,both the formation energy and migration energy barrier are higher.On the other hand,in NiCr and other alloys,the formation energy of interstitials/vacancies is lower,as is the migration energy barrier of interstitials.The energy analysis agrees well with previous observations.The present work provides new insights into the mechanism behind the irradiation resistance of binary Ni-based SP-CSAs.

文摘Alloy composition design usually contributes to eliminating cracking in Ni-based superalloys during addi-tive manufacturing(AM).However,a detailed understanding of each solid solution element in the crack-ing susceptibility of Ni-based superalloys during AM is still missing.Thirteen newly designed alloys are considered to investigate the combined effect of solid solution elements on cracking susceptibility.The behaviors of solidification cracking,liquation cracking,and solid-state cracking were analyzed by the microstructural characterization and thermodynamic calculations.The results showed that W and Mo cause the formation of high melting-point carbides at grain boundaries(GBs),which increase solidifica-tion cracking susceptibility.Moreover,W and Mo lead to a slightly higher solidification cracking index(SCI)compared to Co,Cr,and Re.In the successive solidification and remelting process,the borides en-riched in W,Mo,and B around GBs will cause grain boundary segregation and liquation cracking.W and Re extend the freezing range(FR)and exacerbate the segregation of Al and Ti in the inter-dendritic re-gions,contributing to the formation of eutectics.Similarly,complete or partial melting of the eutectic can induce liquation cracking during the thermal cycling in AM.The solid-state cracking susceptibility can be reduced by solid solution elements,especially Re and Co.In summary,compared to Co,Cr,and Re,W and Mo exacerbate the cracking susceptibility.

文摘With ongoing global warming and increasing energy demands,the CH_(4)-CO_(2)reforming reaction(dry reforming of methane,DRM)has garnered significant attention as a promising carbon capture and utilization technology.Nickel-based catalysts are renowned for their outstanding activity and selectivity in this process.The impact of metal-support interaction(MSI),on Ni-based catalyst performance has been extensively researched and debated recently.This paper reviews the recent research progress of MSI on Ni-based catalysts and their characterization and modulation strategies in catalytic reactions.From the perspective of MSI,the effects of different carriers(metal oxides,carbon materials and molecular sieves,etc.)are introduced on the dispersion and surface structure of Ni active metal particles,and the effect of MSI on the activity and stability of DRM reactions on Ni-based catalysts is discussed in detail.Future research should focus on better understanding and controlling MSI to improve the performance and durability of nickel-based catalysts in CH_(4)-CO_(2)reforming,advancing cleaner energy technologies.

文摘The uniform refinement mechanisms and methods of deformed mixed and coarse grains inside a solution-treatment Ni-based superalloy during two-stage annealing treatment have been investigated.The two-stage heat treatment experiments include an aging annealing treatment(AT)and a subsequent recrystallization annealing treatment(RT).The object of AT is to precipitate someδphases and consume part of storage energy to inhibit the grain growth during RT,while the RT is to refine mixed and coarse grains by recrystallization.It can be found that the recrystallization grains will quickly grow up to a large size when the AT time is too low or the RT temperature is too high,while the deformed coarse grains cannot be eliminated when the AT time is too long or the RT temperature is too low.In addition,the mixed microstructure composed of some abnormal coarse recrystallization grains(ACRGs)and a large number of fine grains can be observed in the annealed specimen when the AT time is 3 h and RT temperature is 980℃.The phenomenon attributes to the uneven distribution ofδphase resulted from the heterogeneous deformation energy when the AT time is too short.In the regions with a large number ofδphases,the recrystallization nucleation rate is promoted and the growth of grains is limited,which results in fine grains.However,in the regions with fewδphases,the recrystallization grains around grain boundaries can easily grow up,and the new recrystallization nucleus is difficult to form inside grain,which leads to ACRGs.Thus,in order to obtain uniform and fine annealed microstructure,it is a prerequisite to precipitate even-distributedδphase by choosing a suitable AT time,such as 12 h.Moreover,a relative high RT temperature is also needed to promote the recrystallization nucleation aroundδphase.The optimal annealing parameters range for uniformly refining mixed crystal can be summarized as:900℃×12 h+990℃×(40-60 min)and 900℃×12 h+1000℃×(10-15 min).

文摘This paper reports the use of integrated computational alloy design,coupled with a rapid printability screening method,to downselect from a total of 70000 datasets in design space to five candidates in the first step,and then from five to one in the second step.The new Ni-base superalloy with compositions of Ni-5.03Al-2.69Co-5.63Cr-0.04Hf-1.91Mo-2.36Re-3.32Ta-0.57Ti-8.46W-0.05C-0.019B exhibits an optimal balance of density(8.82 g/cm^(2)),printability(freezing range of 107℃),thermal stability(γ′-volume fraction of 50.7%at 980℃and low M_(d)value)and creep(rupture time of 612 h at 980℃/120 MPa).The micro-hardness varies mildly from 417.2±18.5 to 434.7±14.6 HV,suggesting good phase stability.This is substantiated by microstructure observations,which revealed the absence of a topologically close-packed phase.Machine-learning tools of the artificial neural network(ANN),random forest,and support vector regression,respectively,were used to predict creep rupture time.The ANN algorithm achieves the highest accuracy in predicting creep life.By recognising the“black box”nature of the ANN,interpretability analysis was conducted using the local interpretable model-agnostic method.The analysis supports that the ANN model truly learned meaningful functional relationships,and thus is judged as reliable.Feature correlation evaluation outcome emphasises the importance of incorporating microstructure-related input features.

文摘The challenge of low temperature and rapid diffusion bonding of a Ni-based superalloy was hereby addressed by using a Ni nano-coating and a spark plasma sintering(SPS).It successfully produced a Nibased superalloy joint with 337 MPa shear strength at 500℃ for 30 min,which is approximately 400℃ lower than the traditional hot pressure diffusion bonding(HPDB)temperature.The microstructure and mechanical properties of the joints were systematically investigated.It is revealed that the pulsed current and ultra-fine grains(19 nm)in the Ni nano-coating could significantly facilitate voids closure.The voids closure mechanisms involved(i)pulsed current strengthened plastic deformation,(ii)pulsed current strengthened surface source diffusion,(iii)pulsed current strengthened bonding interface diffusion,(iv)grain growth dividing the initial large voids into nano-voids,and(v)massive grain boundaries(GBs),lattice defects,and local high-temperature strengthened GBs diffusion.Furthermore,the GBs migration across the interface was investigated,and the results revealed that the GBs migration and fine grains(350 nm)near the bonding interface together increased the joint strength.

文摘Four powder metallurgy(PM)Ni-based superalloys with different Hf and Ta contents were creep-tested at 650℃ and 970 MPa,700℃ and 770 MPa,and 750℃ and 580 MPa,respectively.The effect of Hf and Ta on creep deformation behaviors of the superalloys was studied from multiple scales by SEM,electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD),and aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscope(AC-STEM).The results showed that Hf and Ta suppressed the intergranular fracture and initiation of cracks during the acceleration creep stage,which prolonged the creep rupture time.Hf and Ta inhibited the stacking faults extending and the dislocation climbing and promoted the Suzuki segregation of W during the steady-state creep stage,which reduced the minimum creep rate and delayed the start time of the acceleration creep stage.The Suzuki segregation of Co,Cr,Mo,Ti,Nb,W,and Ta along stacking faults was observed after Hf and Ta addition,leading to the localized phase transformation in the γ′phase,and the stacking fault phase was chemically disordered.This study provided ideas for the composition design of novel PM Ni-based superalloys and theoretical foundations for the combined addition of Hf and Ta.

文摘The coupling between heat and pressure is the kernel of inertia friction welding(IFW)and is still not fully understood.A novel 3D fully coupled finite element model based on a plastic friction pair was developed to simulate the IFW process of a Ni-based superalloy and reveal the omnidirectional thermo-mechanical coupling mechanism of the friction interface.The numerical model successfully simulated the deceleration,deformation processes,and peak torsional moments in IFW and captured the evolution of temperature,contact pressure,and stress.The simulated results were validated through measured thermal history,optical macrography,and axial shortening.The results indicated that interfacial friction heat was the primary heat source,and plastic deformation energy only accounted for 4%of the total.The increase in initial rotational speed and friction pressure elevated the peak temperature,reaching a maximum of 1525.5K at an initial rotational speed of 2000 r/min and friction pressure of 400 MPa.The interface heat generation could form an axial temperature gradient exceeding 320K/mm.The radial inhomogeneities of heat generation and temperature were manifested in a concentric ring distribution with maximum heat flux and temperature ranging from 2/5 to 2/3 radius.The radial inhomogeneities were caused by increasing linear velocity along the radius and an opposite distribution of contact pressure,which could reach 1.7 times the set pressure at the center.The circumferential inhomogeneity of thermomechanical distribution during rotary friction welding was revealed for the first time,benefiting from the 3D model.The deflection and transformation of distribution in contact pressure and Mises stress were indicators of plastic deformation and transition of quasi-steady state welding.The critical Mises stress was 0.5 times the friction pressure in this study.The presented modeling provides a reliable insight into the thermo-mechanical coupling mechanism of IFW and lays a solid foundation for predicting the microstructures and mechanical properties of inertia friction welded joints.
文摘The effect of cooling rate on the cooling γ′ precipitation behaviors was investigated in a Ni-base powder/metallurgy (P/M) superalloy (FGH4096). The empirical equations were established between the cooling rate and the average sizes of secondary and tertiary γ′ precipitates within grains and tertiary γ′ precipitates at grain boundaries, as well as the apparent width of grain boundaries. The results show that the average sizes of secondary or tertiary γ′ precipitates are inversely correlated with the cooling rate. The shape of secondary γ′ precipitates within grains changes from butterfly-like to spherical with the increase of cooling rate, but all the tertiaryγ′ precipitates formed are spherical in shape. It is also found that tertiary γ′ may be precipitated in the latter part of the cooling cycle only if the cooling rate is not faster than 4.3℃/s, and the apparent width of grain boundaries decreases linearly with the increase of cooling rate.
