Volumetric expansion coefficients, as used for liquids and gases, are three times the value of linear expansion coefficients. **The speed of sound in solids depends on propagation mode and solid shape. Values here compiled apply to longitudinal-wave (i.e. pressure wave, or P-wave) along thin solids (rods, bars, pipes); values for bulk solids are some 20% higher. Sound propagation as transversal waves (i.e. shear waves, or S-waves) are some 40% lower (e.g. for a mild steel rod c=5100±100 m/s, but for a steel block c=6000±100 m/s, and c=3100±100 m/s for shear waves. 1) Alumina (Al2O3, M=0.102 kg/mol) is a typical refractory material (i.e. resistant to very high temperatures). Conductivity decreases a lot with temperature (k=120 W/(m·K) at 100 K, k=50 W/(m·K) at 200 K, k=12 W/(m·K) at 500 K, k=5 W/(m·K) at 1500 K).. See also sapphire properties. 3 2) Aluminium (Al, M=0.027 kg/mol, a face-centred-cubic crystal, is seldom used pure. The liquid at the melting point has ρL=2360 kg/m (notice a rather large 6% volume increase on melting), -6 αL=125·10 1/K, cL=1130 J/(kg·K), kL=90 W/(m·K), σ=0.86 N/m, µ=1200 µPa·s. Thermal conductivity of pure aluminium may reach k=237 W/(m·K) at 288 K, and decreases to k=220 W/(m·K) at 800 K; at cryogenic temperatures, k=50 W/(m·K) at 100 K, increasing to a maximum of k=25∙103 W/(m·K) at 10 K and then decreasing towards zero proportionally to T, with k=4∙103 W/(m·K) at 1 K ). Aluminium alloys may have k=100..200 W/(m·K); e.g. see A7075 below. Emissivity may vary a lot, from 0.05 if polished, to 0.8 if hard anodised or dew-covered, or even ε=0.85 if black anodised. Solar absorptance also may vary from 0.09 if polished to 0.4 if hard anodised; aluminium foil gets hot under sunshine because α/ε=0.15/0.05>1). Aluminium paint may have ε=0.3 when bright and ε=0.6 when dull. -6 -6 3) A7075 is an aluminium alloy with 6%Zn, 2.5%Mg, 1.5%Cu, ), with Tmelting=750 K but Tfreezing=900 K; α=23.4∙10 1/K at 25 ºC (α=25.2∙10 1/K at 200 ºC). Aluminium alloys are designated by 4 figures related to composition: 1xxx if Al>99%, 2xxx with Cu, 4xxx with Si, 5xxx with Mg, 7xxx with Zn). Duralumin (Al-2024: 4.4%Cu, 1%Mg, 0.75%Mn, 0.4%Si) has Tf=775 K, ρ=2770 3 kg/m , cp=875 J/(kg·K) and k=174 W/(m·K), increasing to k=188 W/(m·K) at 500 K; it was the most common aerospace alloys, but were susceptible to stress corrosion cracking and are increasingly replaced by 7000 series (mainly Al-7075). 4) Asbestos is a plait of Mg3Si2O5 fibres. It is rarely use nowadays after its dust was found to be carcinogenic. 5) Asphalt here refers to the solid residue of crude-oil distillation, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon mix (e.g. 85%C10%H5%S) also known as bitumen, and used as a water-prof layer in buildings. Notice, however, that the main use of asphalt is as a binder in road paving, asphalt concrete (often shorted to asphalt), a composite material with asphalt (the binder) and gravel (ceramic aggregates) with higher density (2300..2500 kg/m3, higher thermal conductivity (1..3 W/(m·K))), and higher heat capacity (1000..1300 J/(kg·K)). Asphalt (the binder) gets soft and may creep when warm (but it may oxidise and get stiffer under strong sunshine), and gets brittle at freezing temperatures; it is handled as a viscous liquid at about 150 ºC.

    COMPLEX & INCREMENTAL STRESS CREEP OF A HIGH STRENGTH ALUMINIUM ALLOY AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURES (ALLOY: HIDUMINIUM RR58 SPECIFICATION DTD 731) by SURINDAR BAHADUR MATHUR Thesis presented in the Department of Mechanical Engineering for the Award of the Doctor of Philosphy in Mechanical Engineering of the University of London. Mechanical Engineering Department Imperial College of Science and Technology mAec.19 70 (University of London) London. ABSTRACT A theory for creep rates under complex and incremental stresses is deduced from experimental data concerning complex creep at elevated temperatures for the test material HIDUMINIUM RR 58 - Specification DID 731. The most important results are for tubular specimens tested at 150°C and 250°C under incremental loads. The analysis of results relates to steady state creep only. Modified relationships in stress equivalence and strain equivalence are proposed to account for thermal softening, polygonization, recrystallization and the resulting exaggerated flow in the direction of the applied shear. (The original equations are based on the hypothesis of Von Mises). A further relationship is suggested between the immediate total energy of distortion and the subsequent creep work rate. Results of the static tests and the results of the tests for creep behaviour under complex loading are presented and compared with the results of static torsion and simple incremental torsion creep tests on the basis of the proposed equations. An appendix describes the complex creep testing machine, furnace, extensometers

  • Aluminium Level 2 2019 CES Edupack
    Level 2 Age-hardening wrought Al-alloys The 2000 and 7000 series age -hardening aluminum alloys are the backbone of the aerospace industry. The 6000 series has lower strength but is more easily extruded: it is used for marine and ground transport systems. THE MATERIAL The high -strength aluminum alloys rely on age -hardening: a sequence of heat treatment steps that causes the precipitation of a nano-scale dispersion of intermetallics that impede dislocation motion and impart strength. This can be as high as 700 MPa giving them a strength-to-weight ratio exceeding even that of the strongest steels. This record describes for the series of wrought Al alloys that rely on age-hardening requiring a solution heat treatment followed by quenching and ageing. This is recorded by adding TX to the series number, where X is a number between 0 and 8 that records the state of heat treatment. They are listed below using the IADS designations (see Technical notes for details).2000 series: Al with 2 to 6% Cu -- the oldest and most widely used aerospace series.6000 series: Al with up to 1.2% Mg and 1.3% Si -- medium strength extrusions and forgings.7000 series: Al with up to 8% Zn and 3% Mg -- the Hercules of aluminum alloys, used for high strength aircraft structures, forgings and sheet. Certain special alloys also contain silver. So this record, like that for the non-age hardening alloys, is broad, encompassing all of these. COMPOSITION 2000 series: Al + 2 to 6% Cu + Fe, Mn, Zn and sometimes Zr 6000 series: Al + up to 1.2%Mg + 0.25% Zn + Si, Fe a nd Mn 7000 series: Al + 4 to 9 % Zn + 1 to 3% Mg + Si, Fe, Cu and occasionally Zr and Ag GENERAL PROPERTIES Density 2500 - 2900 kg/m^3 Price *1.

Alkathafi* Mechanical Engineering Department, Faculty of Engineering, Sirte University, Libya Received: December 10, 2020 Published: December 31, 2020 Abstract: In this study a fast-cooling technology is employed for a cast iron mould to prepare cast A356 aluminium alloy by solidifica- tion of the molten metal. The cooling rate is achieved by pouring the molten alloy into a preheating permanent mould at different temperatures (25, 100, 200, 300 and 4000C) for cast samples with 40 mm inside diameter and 200 mm height. The samples considered are analyzed by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and EDS X-ray analysis (EDS). The effects of cooling rate on the morphology of α – aluminum and eutectic silicon of A356 alloy have been studied. The results showed that the dendritic structure of α-phase was broken and converted into a somewhat globular grain structure and the coarse acicular eutectic silicon trend to be broken and converted into short sticks or small rounded in other cases. Keywords: A356 Aluminum alloy, Grain refinement, Cooling rate, SEM, EDS, Microstructure. 1. Introduction Aluminium alloys have attractive physical and mechanical properties. They are lightweight, low costs production, easy to machine and have good recycling possibilities up to 95 % [1].

Even in the field of engineering applications, the present generation require downsizing the unwieldy structures to aluminum and its alloys plays vigorous role as an aerospace, lightweight structures. Aluminum matrix composites are tailored space, and automotive components material of increasing candidate materials for aerospace applications due to their outstanding greater strength to weight ratio and low wear rate. In value because of its properties which includes diverse range this study, Al7075 alloy-Beryl-Graphene hybrid composites are of uses are appearance, lightweight and has a low density of developed by using stir casting process. Graphene weight range 2.7 to 2.8 gm/cm3 which is almost one-third of steel percentage was varied from 0 wt. % to 2 wt. % in steps of 0.5 wt. %. (7.83 gmcm3)[-,5]. One of the foremost usually used metal Whereas for Beryl 6 wt. % is used thorough out the study. The alloy for structural application is Al7075 due to its enticing casted specimens were heat-treated at T6 solutionizing wide-ranging properties like low density, improved strength, temperature of 530±5oC for 8 hours. After the heat treatment the specimen are quenched in boiling Water and Ice. The ductility, toughness, and resistance to fatigue. Al7075 alloy microstructure of the newly developed hybrid MMCs has been has been extensively used in aircraft structure elements and investigated by TEM and SEM.
