AbstractThe thermal expansion induced by the exothermic chemical reactions taking place in a turbulent reactive flow affects the velocity field so strongly that the large-scale velocity fluctuations as well as the small-scale velocity gradients can be governed by chemistry rather than by turbulence. Moreover, thermal expansion is well known to be responsible for counter-gradient turbulent diffusion and flame-generated turbulence phenomena. In the present study, by making use of an original splitting procedure applied to the velocity field, we establish the occurrence of two distinct thermal expansion effects in the flamelet regime of turbulent premixed combustion. The first is referred to as the direct thermal expansion effect. It is associated with a local flamelet crossing contribution as previously considered in early analyses of turbulent transport in premixed flames. The second, denoted herein as the indirect thermal expansion effect, is an outcome of the turbulent wrinkling processes that increases the flame surface area. Based on a splitting procedure applied to the velocity field, the respective influences of the two effects are identified and analysed. Furthermore, the theoretical analysis shows that the thermal expansion induced through the local flames can be treated separately in the usual continuity and momentum equations. This description of the turbulent reactive velocity field, leads also to relate all of the usual turbulent quantities to the reactive scalar field. Finally, algebraic closures for the turbulent transport terms of mass and momentum are proposed and successfully validated through comparison with direct numerical simulation data.

Negative thermal expansion is an interesting and appealing phenomenon for various scientific and engineering applications, while rarely occurring in natural materials. Here, using a universal antichiral metamaterial model with bimetal beams or strips, a generic theory has been developed to predict magnitude of the negative thermal expansion effect from model parameters. Thermal expansivity of the metamaterial is written as an explicit function of temperature and only three design parameters: relative node size, chirality angle, and a bimetal constant. Experimental measurements follow theoretical predictions well, where thermal expansivity in the range of negative 0.0006–0.0041 °C−1 has been seen.

In this paper we present a technological problem encountered in the machining accuracy of the parts for aerospace made of aluminum alloy extruded profile with length up to 10 meters. Those parts have very tight tolerances and on milling process appear several factors that influence the repeatability of machining processes, the main one being the thermal expansion effect.

Raman spectra of the magnetic geometric frustration material – the botallackite-structure α-Cu2(OH)3Cl polycrystalline sample were measured down to liquid N2 temperature. It is found that the hydroxyl stretching bands shift abnormally according to the lattice thermal expansion effect of normal materials, i.e., they redshift with decreasing the sample temperature (negative thermal expansion) using liquid N2 cooling while other bands blueshift. This abnormality was also confirmed by observing the band-shifting caused by local laser heating effect using different laser powers, and can be qualitatively explained by checking the local hydroxyl environment with a trimeric hydrogen bond.
