Historically, metals exhibit superplasticity only while forming in a two-phase field because a two-phase microstructure helps ensure a fine, stable grain size. In the U-5.8 Nb alloy, superplastici ty exists for up to 2 h in the single phase field (γ1) at 670°C. This is above the equilibrium monotectoid temperature of 647°C. Utilizing dilatometry, the superplastic (SP) U-5.8 Nb alloy requires superheating to 658°C to initiate the α+γ2 → γ1 transformation at a heating rate of 1.5°C/s. Hence, the U-5.8 Nb alloy exhibits an anomolous superplastic behavior.

This paper aims to propose and compare three new structures of single-phase field excited flux switching machine for pedestal fan application. Conventional six-slot/three-pole salient rotor design has better performance in terms of torque, whilst also having a higher back-EMF and unbalanced electromagnetic forces. Due to the alignment position of the rotor pole with stator teeth, the salient rotor design could not generate torque (called dead zone torque). A new structure having sub-part rotor design has the capability to eliminate dead zone torque. Both the conventional eight-slot/four-pole sub-part rotor design and six-slot/three-pole salient rotor design have an overlapped winding arrangement between armature coil and field excitation coil that depicts high copper losses as well as results in increased size of motor. Additionally, a field excited flux switching machine with a salient structure of the rotor has high flux strength in the stator-core that has considerable impact on high iron losses. Therefore, a novel topology in terms of modular rotor of single-phase field excited flux switching machine with eight-slot/six-pole configuration is proposed, which enable non-overlap arrangement between armature coil and FEC winding that facilitates reduction in the copper losses. The proposed modular rotor design acquires reduced iron losses as well as reduced active rotor mass comparatively to conventional rotor design. It is very persuasive to analyze the range of speed for these rotors to avoid cracks and deformation, the maximum tensile strength (can be measured with principal stress in research) of the rotor analysis is conducted using JMAG. A deterministic optimization technique is implemented to enhance the electromagnetic performance of eight-slot/six-pole modular rotor design. The electromagnetic performance of the conventional sub-part rotor design, doubly salient rotor design, and proposed novel-modular rotor design is analyzed by 3D-finite element analysis (3D-FEA), including flux linkage, flux distribution, flux strength, back-EMF, cogging torque, torque characteristics, iron losses, and efficiency.

AbstractIn order to investigate the effect of dynamic recrystallization (DRX) behavior on dynamic softening behavior of wrought Ti-10V-2Fe-3Al titanium alloy, a series of laboratory scale isothermal hot compression tests with a height reduction of 60% were performed in a temperature range of 948 K~1023 K in the (

AbstractWe have controlled the carrier (electron) density in Nd2CuO2 of the T’ structure by introducing both Ce and Ca into the Nd‐sites, and studied the superconducting transition temperature versus carrier density relationship. The phase relations in the (Nd1‐x‐yCexCay)2CuO4‐z system were studied by means of powder X‐ray dirfractron and electron‐probe micro‐analysis techniques. For the phase diagram of the (Nd1‐x‐yCexCay)2CuO4‐z system, the single phase field of the T’ phase was established. Samples of the (Nd0.9‐yCe0.1Cay)2CuO4‐z system with compositions included in the single phase field were synthesized. The carrier density in these samples was varied by controlling the Ca content. The Hall effect and DC resistivity were measured to elucidate the relation between Tc and the carrier density.

SummaryUnusual clinopyroxenes were synthesized in the study of the join CaFeAlSiO6-CaTiAl2O6 in air at I atm. Clinopyroxene solid solution, hibonite solid solution, X-phase, perovskite, and corundum are present, and at subsolidus temperatures the clinopyroxene singlephase field extends up to about 19 wt% CaTiAl2O6. The CaTiAl2O6 component in the clinopyroxene however increases beyond the clinopyroxene single-phase field and attains 23 wt%. These clinopyroxene solid solutions are extremely poor in SiO2 and extremely rich in Al2O3, Fe2O3, and TiO2, and more than half of tetrahedral sites are occupied by AlIV, contravening the aluminium avoidance principle.

In this study, the deformation behavior of a Ti-40Al-10V (at.%) alloy within β single phase field was examined by means of isothermal compression at 1300 °C under strain rates of 2 s−1, 0.2 s−1, and 0.02 s−1, as well as its effect on the subsequent β→α transformation. The results showed that the alloy behaved steady-state flow with dislocation creep as the predominant rate-controlling process. Dynamic recrystallization (DRX) evidently occurred during deformation, and its volume fraction was dramatically increased so that at the lowest strain rate (0.02 s−1), a full-DRX β structure was obtained. The preferentially dynamic migration of grain boundaries with <100> orientation was demonstrated to be the major DRX mechanism. The texture was characterized by a <100> + <111> double-fiber at 2 s−1, but gradually transformed into a simple rotated cube orientationunder 0.02 s−1, accompanied by a decreasing texture intensity. During the subsequent β→α transformation, two types of α morphology wereproduced with evident variant selection, namely, the Widmannstatten colony and martensitic laths. Texture simulation revealed that the α texture was solely determined by parent β texture, despite of the variant selections.
