Complex impedance spectra of ferroelectric mixed ceramic system ( Na 0.5 Bi 0.5)1-x Ca x Bi 4 Ti 4 O 15 with x=0, 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7 and 1 was studied as a function of frequency and temperature in the range 1 KHz to 10 MHz and 30°C to 620°C respectively. Equivalent circuits involving resistive and capacitive elements at different temperatures, activation energies of relaxations and conduction were evaluated using impedance plots. A comparative study of impedance and conductivity facilities an insight in understanding the electrical nature of these electroceramics.

To find out the important factors which decisively affect the soldering quality of photovoltaic modules, solar cells were soldered under different conditions (different temperatures, PbSn vs. SnAgCu solder, manual vs. semi-automatic). Experimental results show that the soldering quality of PbSn under 350°C in the semi-automatic soldering process was quite stable while the soldering quality of lead-free solder was generally unacceptable in the manual or semi-automatic process under different temperatures. This result indicates that the soldering process with lead-free solder still needs to be further improved. It was also found that most cracks were formed on the interface between the solder and the silver paste and then expanded outwards.

The condenser performance benefits afforded by dropwise condensation have long been unattainable in steam cycle power plant condensers due to the unavailability of durable and long lasting wetting inhibiting surface treatments. However, recent work in superhydrophobic coating technology shows promise that durable coatings appropriate for use on condenser tubes in steam cycle power generation systems may soon become a reality. This work presents a nano-scale, vapor phase deposited superhydrophobic coating with improved durability comprised of several layers of rough alumina nano-particles and catalyzed silica with a finishing layer of perfluorinated silane. This coating was applied to solid, hemi-cylindrical test surfaces fabricated from several common condenser tube materials used in power generation system condensers: Titanium, Admiralty brass, Cupronickel, and Sea Cure stainless steel condenser tube materials as well as 304 stainless steel stock. The development evolution of the coating and its effect on condensation behavior on the above materials are presented. Results show that the performance enhancement, measured in rate of heat transfer spikes corresponding to condensate roll-off events, was best for the titanium surface which produced 64% more events than the next most active material when coated using the most durable surface treatment tested in this work.

ABSTRACTNaturally corroded, poorly durable glasses are compared with results from MCC-4 leach tests on similar glasses. It is suggested that different corrosion products are formed at different temperatures; therefore, care should be taken when interpreting experimental leach rates. Solution composition, pH and flow around the sample can also have a profound effect on corrosion rates.
