The phase composition, microstructure, phase change temperature and enthalpy of the alloy were investigated after 100, 200, 400 and 500 thermal cycles. The results indicate that no considerable phase transformation and structural change occurred, and only a small decrease in phase transition temperature and enthalpy appeared in the alloy after 500 thermal cycles, which implied that the Mg–25%Cu–15%Zn eutectic alloy had thermal reliability with respect to repeated thermal cycling, which can provide a theoretical basis for industrial application.

  • The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion and Your Heating System By: Admin - May 06, 2021
    The Coefficient of Thermal Expansion and your Heating System By: Admin - May 06, 2021 We’ve all been there. The lid on pickle jar is impossibly tight, but when you run hot water over the jar you can easily unscrew the lid. The metal lid expands more than the glass jar, which is a simple illustration of how materials, when heated, expand at different rates. The relationship of how materials expand or contract through temperature change is driven by the coefficient of thermal expansion or CTE of those materials and is a critical factor when designing a heater. Determining the appropriate materials for the heater is not as simple as running warm water over a metal lid. The coefficient of thermal expansion is a critical factor when pairing dissimilar materials in a system. With the help of Watlow representatives, you can make sure your system is designed for success, efficiency and a long lifespan. What is the coefficient of thermal expansion? To understand the science behind the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), one must first understand the basics of thermal expansion. Physical property changes, such as shape, area, volume and density, occur during thermal expansion. Every material or metal/metal alloy will have a slightly different expansion rate. CTE, then, is the relative expansion or contraction of materials driven by a change in temperature. Metals, ceramics and other materials have unique coefficients of thermal expansion and do not expand and contract at equal rates. For example, if the volume of a section of aluminum and a section of ceramic are equal and are heated from X to Y degrees, the aluminum could increase in dimension by a factor of four compared to the ceramic.

  • 1 First-Principles Thermal Equation of State and Thermoelasticity for Hcp Fe
    First-principles thermal equation of state and thermoelasticity for hcp Fe under high pressures Xianwei Sha and R. E. Cohen Carnegie Institution of Washington, 5251 Broad Branch Road, NW, Washington, D. C. 20015, U. S. A. We investigate the equation of state and elastic properties of nonmagnetic hcp iron at high pressures and high temperatures using the first principles linear response linear- muffin-tin-orbital method in the generalized-gradient approximation. We calculate the Helmholtz free energy as a function of volume, temperature, and volume-constrained strain, including the electronic excitation contributions from band structures and lattice vibrational contributions from quasi-harmonic lattice dynamics. We perform detailed investigations on the behavior of elastic moduli and equation of state properties as a function of temperature and pressure, including the pressure-volume equation of state, bulk modulus, the thermal expansion coefficient, the Grüneisen ratio, and the shock Hugoniots. A detailed comparison has been made with available experimental measurements and theoretical predictions. PACS number(s): 05.70.Ce, 62.20.Dc, 65.40.-b, 31.15.Ar 1 I. Introduction Iron is one of the most abundant elements in the Earth, and is fundamental to our world. The study of iron at high pressures and temperatures is of great geophysical interest, since both the Earth’s liquid outer core and solid inner core are mainly composed of this element. Although the crystal structure of iron at the extremely high temperature (4000 to 8000 K) and high pressure (330 to 360 GPa) conditions found in the deep inner core is still under debate,[1-5] the hexagonal-close-packed phase (ε-Fe) has been found to have a wide stability field extending from deep mantel to core conditions, and serves as a starting point for understanding the nature of the inner core.[6] Significant experimental and theoretical efforts have been recently devoted to investigate properties of hcp iron at high pressures and temperatures.

It is easy to tell if an object is hot or cold by touching it. How hot or cold something feels is related to temperature, but only provides a rough indicator. Slide 6 / 106 What is Temperature? To understand temperature, rememberthat all matter is made of molecules that are in constant motion. What kind of energy do they have if they are in motion? Even the molecules in this solid pencil are vibrating relative to a fixed position. The water molecules in this glass are in constant random motion.

Two approaches with different computational costs and degrees of freedom were proposed. The predicted values were compared with available experimental data showing that for g-TiAl, the more computational demanding method with decoupled impact of volume and temperature effects on the cell shape leads to significantly better results than that with only ground-state optimised unit cell geometry. In the case of the a2-Ti3Al phase, both approaches yielded comparable results. Additionally, heat capacity and bulk modulus were evaluated as functions of temperature for both phases, and were fitted to provide an analytical formula which can be further used. Keywords: thermal expansion; titanium aluminides; thermodynamic properties; ab initio calculations; quasi-harmonic approximation 1. Introduction First principles calculations are now a widely used and well-established method for complementing experimental materials science research [1]. Despite the fact that many recent activities have been directed towards big-data and machine learning [2–4], there are still many topics which require individualised treatments.
