The results indicate that a cast Co-base superalloy follows the subparabolic oxidation kinetics at 900 and 1000℃, which are controlled by the growth of the inner Cr-rich layer, and that after oxidation at 1050℃ for 200 h, it almost exhibits the linear oxidation kinetics possible due to the volatility of Cr-rich oxide. A mixed scale forms on the alloy after prolonged oxidation. The oxide scale formed at 900 and 1000℃ is composed of an outer layer of spinel and an inner continuous Cr-rich layer and at I050℃ is composed of a very discontinuous Cr-rich layer.展开更多

The aim of the work is to address some of the uncertainties which have arisen from previous studies where conflicting results have been reported for the effect on the NGV. The configuration was initially based on the energy efficient engine turbine which also served as the validation case for the computational method. A total of 17 NGV configurations were evaluated to study the effects of lean and vortex design on row efficiency and secondary kinetic energy. The distribution of mass flow ratio is introduced as an additional factor in the assessment of blade lean effects. The results show that in the turbine entry NGV, the secondary flow strength is not a dominant factor that determines NGV losses and therefore the changes of loading distribution due to blade lean and the associated loss mecha- nisms should be regarded as a key factor. Radial mass flow redistribution under different NGV lean and twist is demonstrated as an addition key factor influencin~ row efficiency.展开更多

Both Euler throughflow model and Navier-Stokes （N-S） throughflow model are employed to investigate the performance and flow fields of a highly loaded transonic single-stage fan ATS-2 and a four-stage fan. The results are compared with the experimental and three-dimensional computational results. It shows that the throughflow models can provide reasonable perform- ance characteristics and N-S throughflow model gives better predictions in endwall regions. A throughflow com- putation in which all the non-axisymmetric terms are included has been performed at off-design condition and the radial distributions of the flow field can be well described.展开更多

It was found that, when the ratio of monomer to crosslinker was 8, and the solid loading was 50 wt%, the mechanical properties of sintered samples were the most excellent, which resulted from the uniform pore size distribution and well-grown rod-like bSi3N4 grains. In that case, the porosity and flexural strength of sintered samples were 50% and 125 MPa,respectively.展开更多

The results show that the structural parameters have significant effects on the TVC. As a/ H increases, the total pressure loss, the wall shear stress at the bottom of the cavity and the turbulent intensity in the main combustion zone increase. b/ B does not have a significant effect on the cavity flow structure and the total pressure loss, and the wall shear stress at the bottom of the cavity increases as b/ B increases. There is no significant increase of the turbulent intensity with the increase of b/ B. The increase of c/ L has little effect on the total pressure loss, and it is not conducive to a stable combustion. As c/ L increases, the wall shear stress at the bottom of the cavity decreases. When a/ H= 0.4, b/ B= 0.4, c/ L= 0.1, a desirable dual-vortex structure is formed with an acceptable pressure loss to achieve a stable combustion. Moreover, to ascertain that the flame is stable for different values of Vm a with the optimal structural parameters, the effect of Vm a on the flow field is discussed. Results suggest that the dual-vortex structure has no relationship with the increase of Vm a. Furthermore, an unsteady simulation is conducted to show the generation and the development of the dual-vortex.展开更多
