The FeCoNiCrTi0.2 high-entropy alloys fabricated by vacuum arc melting method, and the annealed pristine material, are face centered cubic structures with coherent γ’ precipitation. Samples were irradiated with 50 keV He+ ions to a fluence of 2 × 1016 ions/cm2 at 723 K, and an in situ annealing experiment was carried out to monitor the evolution of helium bubbles during heating to 823 and 923 K. The pristine structure of FeCoNiCrTi0.2 samples and the evolution of helium bubbles during in situ annealing were both characterized by transmission electron microscopy. The annealing temperature and annealing time affect the process of helium bubbles evolution and formation. Meanwhile, the grain boundaries act as sinks to accumulate helium bubbles. However, the precipitation phase seems have few effects on the helium bubble evolution, which may be due to the coherent interface and same structure of γ’ precipitation and matrix.

AbstractThis study determines the effect of the configuration of the magnetic field on the movement of gas bubbles that evolve from platinum electrodes. Oxygen and hydrogen bubbles respectively evolve from the surface of the anode and cathode and behave differently in the presence of a magnetic field due to their paramagnetic and diamagnetic characteristics. A magnetic field perpendicular to the surface of the horizontal electrode causes the bubbles to revolve. Oxygen and hydrogen bubbles revolve in opposite directions to create a swirling flow and spread the bubbles between the electrodes, which increases conductivity and the effectiveness of electrolysis. For vertical electrodes under the influence of a parallel magnetic field, a horizontal Lorentz force effectively detaches the bubbles and increases the conductivity and the effectiveness of electrolysis. However, if the layout of the electrodes and magnetic field results in upward or downward Lorentz forces that counter the buoyancy force, a sluggish flow in the duct inhibits the movement of the bubbles and decreases the conductivity and the charging performance. The results in this study determine the optimal layout for an electrode and a magnetic field to increase the conductivity and the effectiveness of water electrolysis, which is applicable to various fields including energy conversion, biotechnology, and magnetohydrodynamic thruster used in seawater.

The study of the spectra of flow is carried out by experimental methods. The paper summarizes the authors’ experience in the design, construction and use of hydrodynamic installations for the visualization of liquid or gas flow using hydrogen bubbles obtained by electrolysis of water. The design of a vertical hydrodynamic pipe, the technology of making experimental models, the design and purpose of the main equipment are considered. Research methods and procedures are described. The article presents the results of the studies that make it possible to evaluate the capabilities of the experimental equipment and picture physical processes around the bodies that change the kinematic parameters of motion in the incident flow according to a given law. The proposed research methods and experimental equipment are distinguished by originality. They can be used to study the features of macrostructures around bodies of complex geometric shapes and laws of motion.
