Abstract The results of experimental studies to determine the effect of power during laser powder cladding on temperature deformations of the substrate at a constant cladding rate and the mass flow rate of the powder are presented. Steel 1020 was used as the substrate material, from which samples of sizes 90x90 mm and a thickness of 8 mm were made. Laser powder cladding was performed by using a wear-resistant powder E-300 on a robotic complex with an ytterbium fiber laser and a coaxial powder feed. Single tracks were applied to the sample by laser powder cladding using various parameters of technological modes. The amount of deformation of the substrate was estimated taking into account the depth of the mixing layer. The cladding mode is selected, which provides minimal temperature deformations, with maximum process performance.

Present experience shows that it is impossible to solve the problem of traffic congestion without intelligent transport systems. Traffic management in many cities uses the data of detectors installed at controlled intersections. Further, to assess the traffic situation, the data on the traffic flow rate and its concentration are compared. Latest scientific studies propose a transition from spatial to temporal concentration. Therefore, the purpose of this work is to establish the regularities of the influence of traffic flow concentration in time on traffic flow rate at controlled city intersections. The methodological basis of this study was a systemic approach. Theoretical and experimental studies were based on the existing provisions of system analysis, traffic flow theory, experiment planning, impulses, probabilities, and mathematical statistics. Experimental data were obtained and processed using modern equipment and software: Traficam video detectors, SPECTR traffic light controller, Traficam Data Tool, SPECTR 2.0, AutoCad 2017, and STATISTICA 10. In the course of this study, the authors analyzed the dynamics of changes in the level of motorization, the structure of the motor vehicle fleet, and the dynamics of changes in the number of controlled intersections. As a result of theoretical studies, a hypothesis was put forward that the investigated process is described by a two-factor quadratic multiplicative model. Experimental studies determined the parameters of the developed model depending on the directions of traffic flow, and confirmed its adequacy according to Fisher’s criterion with a probability of at least 0.9. The results obtained can be used to control traffic flows at controlled city intersections.

Fire Extinguishers

Test-fires to determine fire-extinguishers’ efficiency for extinguishing B class fires are conducted by operators equipped with working clothes, which does not comply with the requirements of physical modelling. This is why the ranks of extinguished modelled seats are significantly overestimated. The quantitative results of fire seats’ extinguishing can be comparatively evaluated in accordance with the value of specific flow rate of a fire-extinguishing agent. As it was detected, the specific flow rate of a fire-extinguishing agent does not actually depend on the rank of modelled fire seat when extinguished by an operator wearing thermal-protective clothes. At the same time, it is increasing along with the expansion of the fire zone scale in case the fire is extinguished without special protective clothes. Consequently, to increase the fire-extinguisher’s efficiency data reliability, the certifying tests should be conducted in conditions close to the real application conditions when the first person to firefight is not equipped with such special protective clothes. The experimental studies to determine the specific flow rate of a fire-extinguishing agent used modelled fire seats of various ranks. The analysis of results showed that the fire-extinguishers ensuring generation of drops of prevailing size more than 0,5 mm are required to extinguish the modelled sire seats. The degree of increasing flow rate for the fire-extinguishing agent to eliminate a fire and observation of a safe distance from the flame for an operator are conditioned by the scale of fire zone and affect the specific flow rate of agent required to ensure stable fire-extinguishing. Based on the results of extinguishing the fire seats «34В» or «55В», it is demonstrated that via using a correction factor it is possible, assuming an acceptable error, to evaluate the flow rate of fire-extinguishing agent to extinguish a modelled fire seat of any rank.

Results of experimental studies on hydrodynamics of the film flow of liquid nitrogen over the surface of the single elements of structured packing are presented. The effect of inclination angle of the large ribs and perforation on the zones of liquid film spreading over the corrugated surface with microtexture at different Reynolds numbers of the film is shown based on a comparison of experimental data. It is shown that the angle of large rib inclination has a significant influence on redistribution of the local flow rate of liquid flowing on the surface with complex geometry. Analysis of results of the high-speed video revealed that in a vicinity of the vertical lateral edges of corrugated plates, the intense rivulet flows are formed, including those with separation from the film flow surface. This negative factor can lead to significant liquid accumulation and flow near the vertical edges of the structured packing and on the inner wall of the heat exchanging apparatuses and, finally, to a significant increase in the degree of maldistribution of local liquid flow rate over the crosssection, for instance, of the distillation columns.

As a promising active flow control method, boundary layer suction (BLS) can be used to enhance the aerodynamic performance of the highly-loaded compressor effectively, and due to this reason, extensive studies have been carried out on it. However, contrast to those abundant studies focusing on the flow control effects of BLS, little attention has been paid on the design method of the aspiration flow path. This work presents a 3-D steady numerical simulation on a highly-loaded aspirated compressor cascade. The aspiration slot is implemented at its best location based on the previous experimental studies and the aspiration flow rate is fix to 1.5% of the inlet massflow. The plenum configuration follows the blade shape and remains unchanged. One-side-aspiration manner is adopted to simplify the aspiration devices. Two critical geometry parameters, slot angle and slot width, are varied to study the effects of blade aspiration slot configuration on the cascade loss, radial distribution of the aspiration flow rate and inner flow structures within the aspiration flow path. Results show that the slot configuration does affect the cascade performance. In comparison with the throughflow performance, it is especially true once the flow loss caused by the aspiration flow path is also taken into account, and higher flow loss will be generated within the aspiration flow path if an inappropriate scheme is adopted. In the present investigation, apart from the cases with larger negative slot angle, a wider slot is more preferable to a narrower one, since it could enhance the aspiration capacity near the endwall regions and lower the dissipation loss within the aspiration flow path. In terms of the slot angle, a larger negative value, i.e., the slot direction more aligned with the incoming flow, is not beneficial to improve the throughflow performance, while concerning the flow loss yield by the aspiration flow path, a proper negative slot angle is always optimal.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate the effects of abrasive contents, oxidizer contents, slurry flow rate and polishing time in achieving a mirror-like finish on polished surfaces. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) is now widely used in the aerospace industry for global planarization of large, high value-added components. Design/methodology/approach – Optimal parameters are applied in experimental trials performed to investigate the effects of abrasive contents, oxidizer contents, slurry flow rate and polishing time in achieving a mirror-like finish on polished surfaces. Taguchi design experiments are performed to optimize the parameters of CMP performed in steel specimens. Findings – Their optimization parameters were found out; the surface scratch, polishing fog and remaining particles were reduced; and the flatness of the steel substrate was guaranteed. The average roughness (Ra) of the surface was reduced to 6.7 nm under the following process parameters: abrasive content of 2 weight per cent, oxidizer content of 2 weight per cent, slurry flow rate of 100 ml/min and polishing time of 20 min. Originality/value – To meet the final process requirements, the CMP process must provide a good planarity, precise selectivity and a defect-free surface. Surface planarization of components used to fabricate aerospace devices is achieved by CMP process, which enables global planarization by combining chemical and mechanical interactions.

This paper has proposed and experimentally demonstrated an integrated Co2+-doped microfiber Bragg grating sensor (Co-MFBGS) that can measure the surrounding liquid refractive index (LRI) and liquid flow rate (LFR) simultaneously. The Co-MFBGS provides well-defined resonant modes of core and cladding in the reflection spectrum. By monitoring the wavelength of the cladding mode, the LRI can be measured; meanwhile, by monitoring the wavelength of the core mode caused by the heat exchange, the LFR can be measured. The LRI and LFR can be distinguished by the wavelength separation between cladding mode and core mode. The experimental results show that in aqueous glycerin solution, the maximum measurement sensitivity for LRI detection is −7.85 nm/RIU (refractive index unit), and the LFR sensitivity is −1.93 nm/(μL/s) at a flow rate of 0.21 μL/s.

The thermal performance of FPHPSC has been studied experimentally and theoretically. The collector consists of copper absorber plate, single glass cover, glass wool insulation and aluminum case. Ten wickless heat pipes of 12.7 mm inner diameter. The experimental studies of collector performance have been performed on four different CWMFR (0.03, 0.04, 0.05 and 0.06) kg/s. The relation between the amount of useful heat, instantaneous collector efficiency and solar intensity is discussed. The collector are tested under the climate condition of Kut city (32.6 latitude and 45.7 longitude). It is investigated that the increasing of CWMFR increase the efficiency of the collector. The percentage increase in the efficiency of the solar collector is in order of (13%), when the cooling water mas flow rate changes from 0.03 kg/sec to 0.06 kg/sec at (45o) collector tilt angle. A computer program based on VISUAL BASIC language (version 6) used for the theoretical analysis. The experimental results are in agreement reasonably with the theoretical predictions.

Transfer Method

Micro-transfer printing is rapidly emerging as an effective pathway for heterogeneous materials integration. The process transfers pre-fabricated micro- and nano-scale structures, referred to as “ink,” from growth donor substrates to functional receiving substrates. As a non-contact pattern transfer method, Laser Micro-Transfer Printing (LMTP) has been introduced to enhance the capabilities of transfer printing technology to be independent of the receiving substrate material, geometry, and preparation. Using micro fabricated square silicon as inks and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as the stamp material. The previous work on the LMTP process focused on experimentally characterizing and modeling the effects of transferred inks’ sizes and thicknesses, and laser beam powers on the laser-driven delamination process mechanism. In this paper, several studies are conducted to understand the effects of other process parameters such as stamp post dimensions (size and height), PDMS formulation for the stamp, ink-stamp alignment, and the shape of the transferred silicon inks on the LMTP performance and mechanism. The studies are supported by both experimental data for the laser pulse duration required to initiate the delamination, and thermo-mechanical FEA model predictions of the energy stored at the interface’s edges to release the ink (Energy Release Rate (ERR)), stress levels at the delamination crack tip (Stress Intensity Factors (SIFs)), and interfacial temperature. This study, along with previous studies, should help LMTP users to understand the effects of the process parameters on the process performance so as to select optimal operation conditions.

Spray Process

Ceramic coatings are applied on metals to prevent them from oxidation and corrosion at room as well as elevated temperatures. The service environment, mechanisms of protection, chemical and mechanical compatibility, application method, control of coating quality and ability of the coating to be repaired are the factors that need to be considered while selecting the required coating. The coatings based on oxide materials provides high degree of thermal insulation and protection against oxidation at high temperatures for the underlying substrate materials. These coatings are usually applied by the flame or plasma spraying methods. The surface cleanliness needs to be ensured before spraying. Abrasive blasting can be used to provide the required surface roughness for good adhesion between the substrate and the coating. A pre bond coat like Nickel Chromium can be applied on to the substrate material before spraying the oxide coating to avoid chances of poor adhesion between the oxide coating and the metallic substrate. Plasma spraying produces oxide coatings of greater density, higher hardness, and smooth surface finish than that of the flame spraying process Inert gas is often used for generation of plasma gas so as to avoid the oxidation of the substrate material. The work focuses to develop, characterize and optimize the parameters used in Al2O3 coating on transition stainless steel substrate material for minimizing the wear rate and maximizing the leak tightness using plasma spray process. The experiment is designed using Taguchi’s L9 orthogonal array. The parameters that are to be optimized are plasma voltage, spraying distance and the cooling jet pressure. The characterization techniques includes micro-hardness and porosity tests followed by Grey relational analysis of the results
