文摘Polymer microfluidic chips are a common tool in biomedical research,and the production of mold inserts with microscale structures represents a crucial step in the precise molding of these chips.Electrical discharge machining(EDM)can achieve high-quality machining of microstructures on high-hardness mold steel inserts.This can reduce the manufacturing cost of microfluidic chip molds and extend the service life of molds.However,the EDM process is susceptible to the formation of poor-quality surfaces due to the occurrence of abnormal discharges.To address this issue,this paper presents in-depth research on a novel ultrasonic cavitation-assisted electrical discharge machining method.An ultrasonic transducer is placed in an electrical discharge working fluid to promote the removal of electrical corrosion products through the cavitation effect of the liquid.This can also reduce the occurrence of poor discharge,thereby improving the machining surface quality.The aluminum foil corrosion method is employed to investigate the distribution of ultrasonic action in the electric discharge working fluid.The attenuation law of ultrasonic action in the electric discharge working fluid is also investigated.The range of ultrasonic action is determined,providing a reference for subsequent ultrasonic vibration electric discharge working fluid processing experiments.The results of the aluminum foil tests are used to inform the selection of NAK80 mold steel as the experimental object.The effects of cavitation at three ultrasonic frequencies on the surface microstructure are investigated.The experimental results indicate that ultrasonic cavitation can facilitate the movement of corrosion products in electrical machining,reduce the occurrence of abnormal discharges caused by carbon deposition or the secondary re-melting of metals,and thereby enhance the machining surface quality.

文摘This study presents a numerical analysis of the effects of a rigid flat wall with oscillating motion on the pressure wave propagation during a single spherical cavitation bubble collapse at different initial bubble positions.Different nondimensional distances S=0.8,0.9,1.0,1.1,1.2 and 1.3 were considered to investigate the effects of initial in-phase and out-of-phase oscillations of the flat wall.Numerical simulations of cavitation bubble collapse near an oscillating wall were conducted using a compressible two-phase flow model.This model incorporated the Volume of Fluid(VOF)interface-sharpening technique on a general curvilinear moving grid.The numerical results were consistent with published experimental data.The simulation examined the impact of oscillating walls on bubble behavior and the resulting pressure peaks observed on the wall surface.The numerical results demonstrate the significant impact of wall oscillation conditions on bubble collapse and migration behavior,and consequently,the generation of pressure waves with significantly different propagation and pressure peaks induced by shock impact on the rigid wall.Different behaviors were observed in the trendlines of the pressure peaks and maximum jet velocity under in-phase and out-of-phase oscillating walls,with distinct values.At S≥1.0,a higher-pressure peak on the wall was observed in the case of the out-of-phase oscillating condition,whereas a higher-pressure peak was found in the case of the in-phase condition at S<1.0.The highest-pressure peak was found at S=0.8 in trend lines of in-phase and S=1.1 in trend lines of out-of-phase oscillation effects.

文摘In order to enhance the ultrasonic degradation rate of organic solutions,a metal plate is placed at the water–air interface of the ultrasonic cleaning tank.Initially,the distribution of the acoustic field in the ultrasonic water tank was calculated using the simulation software COMSOL.The simulation results demonstrated that the utilization of the metal plate can eliminate the standing-wave acoustic field to a certain extent.Subsequently,the pixel method was selected for a quantitative comparison of the cavitation area in the flume with and without the metal plate.The results demonstrated that,under specific conditions,the area of ultrasonic cavitation in the water tank can be expanded using a metal plate.Thereafter,an acoustic degradation experiment was designed to confirm the feasibility of the simulation method.Furthermore,the impacts of the amplitude of the incident ultrasonic pressure,frequency,and the height of the liquid level in the water tank on the cavitation area were investigated.

文摘Selective laser melting(SLM),a laser-powder bed fusion(L-PBF)additive manufacturing technique,demonstrates significant potential for enhancing the mechanical performance of Al-Si alloys.In this study,three representative hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys(AlSi7Mg,AlSi10Mg,and AlSi12)were fabricated via SLM additive manufacturing to systematically investigate the influence of silicon content on microstructural evolution and mechanical properties.Advanced characterization techniques including scanning electron microscopy(SEM),electron backscatter diffraction(EBSD),and transmission electron microscopy(TEM)were employed to systematically examine the cavitation erosion behavior of additive-manufactured Al-Si(AM Al-Si)alloys.The experimental findings reveal that varying silicon content predominantly alters the morphology and dimensions of the silicon network structure in AM Al-Si alloys,particularly through modulation of cellular silicon wall thickness.This microstructural modification was identified as the primary determinant in enhancing cavitation erosion(CE)resistance,with the refined silicon network architecture effectively impeding crack propagation and phase boundary delamination under CE conditions.

文摘In order to reveal the cavitation erosion mechanisms of Fe_(50)Mn_(30)Co_(10)Cr_(10)coating prepared by laser melting deposition(LMD)technique,the phase composition evolution,microstructure,microhardness,cavitation erosion resistance and failure mechanisms were investigated.The results demonstrate that the amount of martensite HCPεphase of the coating surface increased by a factor of 2.43,and the microhardness increased from HV 270 to HV 410 after 20 h of cavitation erosion test in distilled water.The cumulative volume loss of the coating was approximately 55%less than that of AlCoCrxCuFe(x=2.0),and the cumulative mean depth of erosion(MDE)was 9%that of FeCoCrAlNiTix(x=2.0).The surface strength and plasticity of the coating were further strengthened in the process of cavitation erosion due to the back stress strengthening and work hardening mechanism caused by the heterogeneous structure,which effectively improved the cavitation erosion resistance of the coating.
文摘目前,在利用超声变幅杆和磨粒相结合的方式来去除金属毛刺的应用中,虽然对单个超声空化泡的理论研究日渐成熟,但缺少水温对空化泡最大溃灭压力影响的研究。文章使用HyperMesh和LS-DYNA Program Manager软件模拟单个空化泡溃灭冲击工件的动态过程,基于单个超声空化泡的最大溃灭压力理论,使用ANSYS Workbench软件分析单个空化泡均匀分布于钻削毛刺表面的溃灭效果。当液体介质装满球面激发式聚焦超声波清洗机的半球域时,COMSOL Multiphysics软件三维声场仿真和铝箔腐蚀实验结果表明在圆心处形成一个稳定的局部高声压区域,并在此区域内进行钻削毛刺去除实验。实验结果表明,水温升高可以有效提高毛刺去除效率。
