Therefore, ...In aero-engines, abrasive coatings are typically utilized to protect the blade tip from excessive wear caused by the harder abradable sealing coating and thereby improve the sealing performance of engines. Therefore, a Ni/cBN abrasive coating was prepared on titanium alloy using electrodeposition. The high-speed rubbing tests with a linear velocity of 350 m/s and different incursion rates were performed to investigate the effect of the Ni/cBN abrasive coating on the wear behavior against NiCrAl/diatomite seal coating. Results showed that melting wear and adhesive transfer occurred on the bare blades, causing the bare blade to suffer excessive wear. While the Ni/cBN abrasive coating exhibited superior wear resistance and cutting performance. The cBN grits pullout, the abrasion of Ni matrix and transfer of seal coating to the cBN grits were the main wear mechanism of the Ni/cBN abrasive coating. Additionally, it was found that the relationship between the incursion rate and high-speed rubbing behavior is quite different for the bare blade and Ni/cBN coating. The reason for the difference in wear behavior of bare blade and Ni/cBN coating at different incursion rates was discussed in detail.展开更多

This ...The technique of creep feed grinding is most suitable for geometrical shaping, and therefore has been expected to improve effectively material removal rate and surface quality of components with complex profile. This article studies experimentally the effects of process parameters (i.e. wheel speed, workpiece speed and depth of cut) on the grindability and surface integrity of cast nickel-based superalloys, i.e. K424, during creep feed grinding with brazed cubic boron nitride (CBN) abrasive wheels. Some important factors, such as grinding force and temperature, specific grinding energy, size stability, surface topography, microhardhess and microstructure alteration of the sub-surface, residual stresses, are investigated in detail. The results show that during creep feed grinding with brazed CBN wheels, low grinding temperature at about 100 ℃ is obtained though the specific grinding energy of nickel-based superalloys is high up to 200-300 J/mm^3. A combination of wheel speed 22.5 m/s, workpiece speed 0.1 m/min, depth of cut 0.2 mm accomplishes the straight grooves with the expected dimensional accuracy. Moreover, the compressive residual stresses are formed in the bum-free and crack-free ground surface.展开更多

Various techniques are employed to produce this magnetic abrasive, but few can meet production demands because they are usually time-consuming, complex with high cost, and the magnetic abrasives made by these techniques have irregular shape and low bonding strength that result in low processing efficiency and shorter service life. Therefore, an attempt is made by combining gas atomization and rapid solidification to fabricate a new iron-based SiC spherical composite magnetic abrasive. The experimental system to prepare this new magnetic abrasive is constructed according to the characteristics of gas atomization and rapid solidification process and the performance requirements of magnetic abrasive. The new iron-based SiC spherical composite magnetic abrasive is prepared successfully when the machining parameters and the composition proportion of the raw materials are controlled properly. Its morphology, microstructure, phase composition are characterized by scanning electron microscope(SEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis. The MAF tests on plate of mold steel S136 are carried out without grinding lubricant to assess the finishing performance and service life of this new SiC magnetic abrasive. The surface roughness(Ra) of the plate worked is rapidly reduced to 0.051 μm from an initial value of 0.372 μm within 5 min. The MAF test is carried on to find that the service life of this new SiC magnetic abrasive reaches to 155 min. The results indicate that this process presented is feasible to prepare the new SiC magnetic abrasive; and compared with previous magnetic abrasives, the new SiC spherical composite magnetic abrasive has excellent finishing performance, high processing efficiency and longer service life. The presented method to fabricate magnetic abrasive through gas atomization and rapid solidification presented can significantly improve the finishing performance and service life of magnetic abrasive, and provide a more practical approach for large-scale industrial production of magnetic abrasive.展开更多

文摘The TZM alloys with different contents of ZrO_(2)were prepared by powder metallurgy and rolling,and the grain size,hardness,and abrasive wear resistance of TZM alloy were studied.The abrasive wear test of TZM alloy was conducted under the conditions of 10,15,and 20 N and abrasive particle sizes of 7,11,18,and 38μm.The results show that the added ZrO_(2)particles in TZM alloy are mainly distributed at the grain boundaries.The grains of TZM alloy containing 1.5wt%ZrO_(2)are significantly refined,and the hardness is increased by 16%.The wear test results show that TZM alloy containing 1.5wt%ZrO_(2)has the lowest mass loss rate and excellent wear resistance under all loads and abrasive sizes,and the wear performance is improved by 12%.The ZrO_(2)with high hardness becomes the main bearer of the load,and as the second-phase,it hinders the abrasive particles from entering the matrix and effectively resists the scratch of the abrasive particles,which is the main reason for the excellent wear resistance.

文摘To address the challenges of poor surface quality and high energy consumption in marble cutting,this study introduces an auxiliary abrasive jet cutting technology enhanced by the use of polyacrylamide(PAM)as a dragreducing additive.The effects of feed rate(50-300 mm/min),polymer concentration(0-0.5 g/L),and nozzle spacing(4-12 mm)on kerf width and surface roughness are systematically investigated through an orthogonal experimental design.Results reveal that feed rate emerges as themost significant factor(p<0.01),followed by PAM concentration and nozzle spacing.The optimal set of parameters,comprising a 200 mm/min feed rate,0.3 g/L PAM concentration,and 6mmnozzle spacing,achieves the narrowest kerf width(0.867 mm)and the lowest surface roughness(10.220μm).Analysis of the underlying mechanisms demonstrates that PAMenhances the energy efficiency of the jet by suppressing turbulent pulsations and increasing fluid viscoelasticity,thereby minimizing energy loss during the cutting process.

文摘Medium-manganese steel exhibits excellent strength and toughness,which are essential features in wear resistance applications.This study examines the impact of annealing temperature on impact abrasive wear.The results have indicated that samples annealed at different temperatures display plowing and fatigue wear effects.In the initial wear stage,the hightemperature annealed steel outperforms samples annealed at a lower temperature in terms of anti-plowing wear performance.This phenomenon is mainly due to the lower initial hardness of the samples subjected to low-temperature annealing.However,with prolonged wear time,the low-temperature annealed samples exhibit improved plowing wear performance,which is ascribed to a refinement of the lamellar microstructure and an increased residual austenite(RA),which enhances the work hardening effect,improving the hardness of the worn surface.The low-temperature annealed samples consistently delivered superior fatigue wear performance when compared with samples annealed at the higher temperature.The latter effect may be attributed to two factors.Firstly,the finer lamellar microstructure in the low-temperature annealed samples,coupled with greater RA,results in transformation-induced plasticity or twin-induced plasticity effect that hinders crack formation and propagation.Secondly,the low-temperature annealed samples form nanoscale equiaxed grains near the worn surface during the wear process.These grains can withstand crack driving forces in fine-grained regions,suppressing the formation and propagation of cracks.

文摘During the excavation process of deep hard rock tunnels,precutting rock with an abrasive water jet can weaken their strength and improve the efficiency of mining machinery.However,owing to the complex geological environment,abrasive jets cannot fully utilize their rock-cutting performance.To fully exploit the advantages of high-pressure abrasive water jets,five orthogonal experiments were designed for rocks with significant differences in strength.Experimental research has been conducted on the performance of rotating abrasive waterjet-cutting rocks.Moreover,a neural network prediction model for predicting rock-cutting characteristics is established by comprehensively considering rock mechanics parameters and abrasive water jet parameters.The results show that the cutting depth of rocks with different strengths increases nonlinearly with increasing work pressure of the abrasive water jet.The cutting depth decreases exponentially with increasing cutting velocity.The cutting depth first increases and then decreases with increasing target distance,and the best target distance is between 4 mm and 6 mm.The effect of the target distance on the cutting width of rock is the most significant,but the cutting width of high-strength rock is not sensitive to changes in the working parameters of the abrasive water jet.The average relative errors of BP(backpropagation)neural networks optimized by global optimization algorithms in predicting rock cutting depth and width are 13.3%and 5.4%,respectively.This research combines the working characteristics of mining machinery to study the performance of abrasive waterjet rotary cutting of rocks and constructs a predictive model for the performance of abrasive waterjet cutting of rocks that includes rock strength factors.This provides a new solution for quickly adjusting the working parameters of abrasive water jets according to mining conditions.

文摘Submerged Abrasive Waterjet Peening(SAWJP)shows great application potential in augmenting the fatigue properties of metallic parts.Thus,the present work aims to investigate the influence of SAWJP on the Surface Integrity(SI)and Fretting Fatigue(FF)properties of Inconel 718(IN718)superalloy and illustrate the microstructural evolution,FF life improvement,and fretting wear mechanism.First,the SI of the IN718 specimen was examined following treatment via SAWJP.Results showed that the specimen subjected to SAWJP formed a total plastic deformation layer of 56μm.The maximum microhardness and Compressive Residual Stress(CRS)measured across the depth of the SAWJP-treated specimens exhibited an increase in values ranging between 522 HV and 541 HV and 1171–1380 MPa,respectively.The FF test results of the specimen before and after SAWJP treatment at ambient temperatures indicated that the FF life of the SAWJP-treated specimen surpassed that of the as-received specimen by a factor of 2.81.The examination of the FF fracture,contact surface,and crack propagation behavior revealed the crucial factors contributing to the enhanced FF resistance of the IN718 specimen,including the gradient nanostructure characterized by ultra-refined grains,substantial CRS,and elevated microhardness,which were all induced by the SAWJP treatment.

文摘Radial jet drilling(RJD)technology is expected to be a technology for the efficient exploitation of geothermal resources.However,the low rock-breaking efficiency is the major obstacle hindering the development of RJD technology.The flow field characteristics and rock breaking ability of cone-straight abrasive jet,rotary abrasive jet,and straight-rotating mixed abrasive jet are analyzed by numerical simulations and experiments.Results show that the axial velocity of the cone-straight abrasive jet is high,the tangential velocity is basically zero,the radial velocity is also small,and the jet impact area is concentrated in the center.A deep hole with a diameter of only 25 mm is formed when the cone-straight abrasive jet breaks the granite.Due to the presence of the guiding impeller,the rotary abrasive jet basically has no axial velocity and has the highest tangential and radial velocity,so it can break the granite to form a hole with a diameter of about 55 mm and a central bulge.The straight-rotating mixed abrasive jet has a large axial/tangential/radial velocity at the same time,so it can break the granite to form a hole with a diameter of about 52 mm with a low bulge.The results show that the straight-rotating mixed abrasive jet combines the advantages of the cone-straight jet and the rotary jet,and is more suitable for the RJD technology.The research results can provide reference for the development of efficient rock-breaking and hole-forming technology,and promote the development of RJD technology in the field of geothermal development.

文摘Aluminum alloys are widely used in industry due to their light weight.These alloys are generally exposed to abrasive wear,which diminishes their effective lifespan.The wear resistance of these alloys is enhanced by adding various reinforcements,however,this enhancement comes at the cost of reduced fracture toughness.This paradox of increased wear resistance versus decreased fracture toughness in aluminum alloys can be resolved by using functionally graded materials (FGMs).This study focuses on the abrasive wear behavior of functional graded aluminum matrix composites reinforced with Al_(3)Ti particles.The wear properties of the composites were investigated by considering the characteristics of the composite such as matrix type and various composite zones,as well as the wear parameters such as abrasive particle diameter,load,sliding speed and distance.Taguchi method was used in the abrasive wear tests in order to get more reliable results in a timeefficient manner.Experiment recipes were created based on the L_(27)(3^(6)) orthogonal series.As a result of the study,it is observed that the wear resistance of the composites increases with an increase in Al_(3)Ti reinforcement content and hardness of the matrix.In addition,the size of abrasive particles and the applied load are significant factors affecting abrasive wear.

文摘Submerged abrasive waterjet peening(SAWJP)is an effective anti-fatigue manufacturing technology that is widely used to strengthen aeroengine components.This study investigated the correlation of SAWJP process parameters on surface integrity and fatigue life of titanium alloy TA19.SAWJP with different water pressures and standoff distances(SoDs)was conducted on the TA19 specimens.The surface integrity of the specimens before and after SAWJP with different process parameters was experimentally studied,including microstructure,surface roughness,microhardness,and compressive residual stress(CRS).Finally,fatigue tests of the specimens before and after SAWJP treatment with different process parameters were carried out at room temperature.The results highlighted that the fatigue life of the TA19 specimen can be increased by 5.46,5.98,and 6.28 times under relatively optimal process parameters,which is mainly due to the improved surface integrity of the specimen after SAWJP treatment.However,the fatigue life of specimens treated with improper process parameters is decreased by 0.55 to 0.69 times owing to the terrible surface roughness caused by the material erosion.This work verifies that SAWJP can effectively improve the surface integrity and fatigue life of workpieces,and reveals the relationship between process parameters,surface integrity,and fatigue life,which provides support for the promotion of SAWJP in the manufacturing fields.

文摘Unsubmerged cavitating abrasive waterjet(UCAWJ)has been shown to artificially create a submerged environment that produces shear cavitation,which effectively enhances rock-breaking performance.The shear cavitation generation and collapse intensity depend on the pressure difference between the intermediate high-speed abrasive waterjet and the coaxial low-speed waterjet.However,the effect of the pressure of the coaxial low-speed waterjet is pending.For this purpose,the effect of low-speed waterjet pressure on rock-breaking performance at different standoff distances was experimentally investigated,and the effects of erosion time and ruby nozzle diameter on erosion performance were discussed.Finally,the micromorphology of the sandstone was observed at different locations.The results show that increased erosion time and ruby nozzle diameter can significantly improve the rock-breaking performance.At different standoff distances,the mass loss increases first and then decreases with the increase of low-speed waterjet pressure,the maximum mass loss is 10.4 g at a low-speed waterjet pressure of0.09 MPa.The surface morphology of cavitation erosion was measured using a 3D profiler,the increase in both erosion depth and surface roughness indicated a significant increase in the intensity of the shear cavitation collapse.At a low-speed waterjet pressure of 0.18 MPa,the cavitation erosion surface depth can reach 600μm with a roughness of 127μm.

文摘In aero-engines, abrasive coatings are typically utilized to protect the blade tip from excessive wear caused by the harder abradable sealing coating and thereby improve the sealing performance of engines. Therefore, a Ni/cBN abrasive coating was prepared on titanium alloy using electrodeposition. The high-speed rubbing tests with a linear velocity of 350 m/s and different incursion rates were performed to investigate the effect of the Ni/cBN abrasive coating on the wear behavior against NiCrAl/diatomite seal coating. Results showed that melting wear and adhesive transfer occurred on the bare blades, causing the bare blade to suffer excessive wear. While the Ni/cBN abrasive coating exhibited superior wear resistance and cutting performance. The cBN grits pullout, the abrasion of Ni matrix and transfer of seal coating to the cBN grits were the main wear mechanism of the Ni/cBN abrasive coating. Additionally, it was found that the relationship between the incursion rate and high-speed rubbing behavior is quite different for the bare blade and Ni/cBN coating. The reason for the difference in wear behavior of bare blade and Ni/cBN coating at different incursion rates was discussed in detail.

文摘Radial jet drilling(RJD)is one of the emerging hydrocarbon drilling technologies.And,the swirling abrasive waterjet(SAWJ)is expected to drill larger diameter laterals during RJD.Here,the performances and mechanisms of SAWJ breaking sandstone were studied by laboratory experiments.Results showed that the SAWJ could drill a smooth(surface roughness was 0.043 mm)&large(diameter was in 52.0-73.0 mm)circular hole on sandstone.The hole depth/volume increased as the jetting pressure,abrasive mass concentration and exposure time increased.Conversely,they decreased as the standoff distance increased.The optimal parameter combination under our experimental conditions was 30 MPa,0 mm,12%and 1 min.The SAWJ sandstone breaking mechanism were the erosion of cements,the integrally peeled off and broken of crystal grain.Failure mode of sandstone was mainly the tensile fracture.The key findings will provide guidance for the application of SAWJ in RJD technology.

文摘To make clear the influence of abrasive hardness on the erosion effect,the erosion experiments of abrasive air jet with the same impact energy were carried out.The influence of abrasive hardness on the erosion effect is clarified by comparing the different erosion depths.The main conclusions are as follows.Under the same mass flow rate and mesh number,the abrasive with a higher density needs greater pressure irrespective of hardness.After erosion damage,the abrasive size exhibits a Weibull distribution.The shape parameterβand Weibull distribution function of four types of abrasives are derived by the least squares method;moreover,βis found to have a quadratic relation with abrasive hardness.The results of the erosion experiments show that abrasive hardness and erosion depth are quadratically related.By calculating the increase in surface energy after abrasive erosion crushing,it is found that abrasive hardness has a quadratic relation with surface energy and that the increases in erosion depth and surface energy consumption are basically identical.In conclusion,the effect is a soft abrasive impact when the ratio of abrasive hardness(Ha)to the material hardness(Hm)is<2.6,and it is a hard abrasive impact when Ha/Hm>3.

文摘The technique of creep feed grinding is most suitable for geometrical shaping, and therefore has been expected to improve effectively material removal rate and surface quality of components with complex profile. This article studies experimentally the effects of process parameters (i.e. wheel speed, workpiece speed and depth of cut) on the grindability and surface integrity of cast nickel-based superalloys, i.e. K424, during creep feed grinding with brazed cubic boron nitride (CBN) abrasive wheels. Some important factors, such as grinding force and temperature, specific grinding energy, size stability, surface topography, microhardhess and microstructure alteration of the sub-surface, residual stresses, are investigated in detail. The results show that during creep feed grinding with brazed CBN wheels, low grinding temperature at about 100 ℃ is obtained though the specific grinding energy of nickel-based superalloys is high up to 200-300 J/mm^3. A combination of wheel speed 22.5 m/s, workpiece speed 0.1 m/min, depth of cut 0.2 mm accomplishes the straight grooves with the expected dimensional accuracy. Moreover, the compressive residual stresses are formed in the bum-free and crack-free ground surface.

文摘SiC magnetic abrasive is used to polish surfaces of precise, complex parts which are hard, brittle and highly corrosion-resistant in magnetic abrasive finishing(MAF). Various techniques are employed to produce this magnetic abrasive, but few can meet production demands because they are usually time-consuming, complex with high cost, and the magnetic abrasives made by these techniques have irregular shape and low bonding strength that result in low processing efficiency and shorter service life. Therefore, an attempt is made by combining gas atomization and rapid solidification to fabricate a new iron-based SiC spherical composite magnetic abrasive. The experimental system to prepare this new magnetic abrasive is constructed according to the characteristics of gas atomization and rapid solidification process and the performance requirements of magnetic abrasive. The new iron-based SiC spherical composite magnetic abrasive is prepared successfully when the machining parameters and the composition proportion of the raw materials are controlled properly. Its morphology, microstructure, phase composition are characterized by scanning electron microscope(SEM) and X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis. The MAF tests on plate of mold steel S136 are carried out without grinding lubricant to assess the finishing performance and service life of this new SiC magnetic abrasive. The surface roughness(Ra) of the plate worked is rapidly reduced to 0.051 μm from an initial value of 0.372 μm within 5 min. The MAF test is carried on to find that the service life of this new SiC magnetic abrasive reaches to 155 min. The results indicate that this process presented is feasible to prepare the new SiC magnetic abrasive; and compared with previous magnetic abrasives, the new SiC spherical composite magnetic abrasive has excellent finishing performance, high processing efficiency and longer service life. The presented method to fabricate magnetic abrasive through gas atomization and rapid solidification presented can significantly improve the finishing performance and service life of magnetic abrasive, and provide a more practical approach for large-scale industrial production of magnetic abrasive.

文摘In dealing with abrasive waterjet machining(AWJM) simulation,most literatures apply finite element method(FEM) to build pure waterjet models or single abrasive particle erosion models.To overcome the mesh distortion caused by large deformation using FEM and to consider the effects of both water and abrasive,the smoothed particle hydrodynamics(SPH) coupled FEM modeling for AWJM simulation is presented,in which the abrasive waterjet is modeled by SPH particles and the target material is modeled by FEM.The two parts interact through contact algorithm.Utilizing this model,abrasive waterjet with high velocity penetrating the target materials is simulated and the mechanism of erosion is depicted.The relationships between the depth of penetration and jet parameters,including water pressure and traverse speed,etc,are analyzed based on the simulation.The simulation results agree well with the existed experimental data.The mixing multi-materials SPH particles,which contain abrasive and water,are adopted by means of the randomized algorithm and material model for the abrasive is presented.The study will not only provide a new powerful tool for the simulation of abrasive waterjet machining,but also be beneficial to understand its cutting mechanism and optimize the operating parameters.
