Abstract During the cooling process after shut down for aeroengines, internal hot air rises and cold air drops due to natural convection, which makes uneven temperature distribution in the casing and creates temperature difference in radial and axial directions, causing uneven deformation of rotor. Once aeroengine starts after a little time of cooling, thermal bow forms more easily, causing excessive vibration. In some cases, the thermal bow can be so severe that the engine will be unable to start. Based on the rotor for one certain type of aeroengine, the paper describes an experiment of thermal bow failure, which is divided into a static one and a dynamic one, both having simulated the uneven temperature field. Firstly, the static experiment measures temperature difference and deformation of rotor in different temperature environments and dissimilar cold blowing conditions. Results show temperature difference of each cross section increases with the growth of casing temperature. And cold blowing can quickly and effectively eliminate uneven temperature distribution and structural deformation. Secondly, the dynamic experiment produces the results that the vibration amplitude increases obviously when rotating frequency approaches critical speeds (2365r/min and 2892r/min). As the cooling time increases, the amplitude decreases until normal, which is the most important feature different from that in failure of initial mass imbalance. Thermal bow mainly influences the fundamental frequency vibration. Cold blowing can quickly and effectively reduce vibration amplitude. The conclusions obtained from the dynamic experiments are consistent with the known regulations from engineering experience.

A coolant mixing investigation in a head of a half-size model of VVER-440 fuel assembly (simulator) has been performed at KFKI. The PIV and PLIF measurements have been done under a selected list of power distribution options, flow rates and powers. The experiments were focused on obtaining a data for investigating the trends in temperature difference between the value registered by a thermocouple and that obtained using PLIF technique. The coolant temperature distribution has been measured in many positions along the coolant trajectory and where coolant flow leaves the rod bundle and in the cross section location of thermocouple, thus the dynamics of effect of mixing process is also declared. PIV and LPIF results show their ability to verify the primary results of CFD calculations.

Image Measurement

The precise edges of forging should be extracted from the image when measuring the dimensions of high temperature forging based on the non-contact image measurement technique. It is difficult to distinguish the forging boundary precisely due to the continuous variation of the air temperature near the forging. The two-dimensional simplified cross-section models, including the squaring, chamfering and rounding models, were established by the symmetrical modeling method. The air-cooling process from 1200°C to 800°C of high temperature long-shaft heavy forging was simulated based on ANSYS software. The variation regularities of temperature with the distance and time were obtained, which provides a theoretical basis to determine the edges of high temperature objects in non-contact measurement.

An electrical – thermal coupled finite element model (FEM) is developed to investigate the temperature distribution during spark plasma sintering (SPS) with a pre-designed graded graphite die. The sample used in this investigation consists of five layers with different contents of Ti and TiB (45 wt % Ti, 55 wt %Ti, 65 wt % Ti, 75 wt % Ti and 85 wt % Ti). The temperature distribution in gradient Ti-TiB composites was obtained. Owing to the use of the die with changing cross section, a temperature difference of 142K in the axial direction inside the sample is achieved, while the maximum radial temperature difference is 6.2 times less than the axial one.

A gas reaction chamber has been designed and constructed for the JEM 7A transmission electron microscope which is based on a notably successful design by Hashimoto et. al. but which provides specimen tilting facilities of ± 15° aboutany axis in the plane of the specimen.It has been difficult to provide tilting facilities on environmental chambers for 100 kV microscopes owing to the fundamental lack of available space within the objective lens and the scope of structural investigations possible during dynamic experiments has been limited with previous specimen chambers not possessing this facility.A cross sectional diagram of the specimen chamber is shown in figure 1. The specimen is placed on a platinum ribbon which is mounted on a mica ring of the type shown in figure 2. The ribbon is heated by direct current, and a thermocouple junction spot welded to the section of the ribbon of reduced cross section enables temperature measurement at the point where localised heating occurs.

Set Up

The temperature distribution of hot air flow in heating zone of a rectangular duct has been investigated for drying application. The experimental set-up consists of a heater and a fan to generate the hot air flow in the range of temperature from 40 to 100°C and the range of air velocity between 1.20 and 1.57 m/s. An increase of the heater power supply increases the hot air temperature in the heating zone while an increase of air velocity forced by fan decreases the initial temperature at the same power supply provided to generate the hot air flow. The temperature distribution shows that the hot air temperature after transferring through air duct decreases with an increase of the length of the rectangular duct. These results are very important for the air flow temperature and velocity control strategy to apply for heating zone design in the drying process.

The paper relates to the field of measuring technologies and deals with the enhancement of thermoconvective method when it is applied for the experimental determination of such hydrodynamics indicators as mass flow rate and velocity of flow by their indirect parameters - capacity of the heater and the temperatures obtained from two thermal sensors, provided that they are located on the hermetic piping system surface. The issue of determination of correction factor on heterogeneity of liquid temperature distribution in the pipe cross section depending on pipe diameter and fluid movement velocity was clarified. According to the results of numerical calculations, the dependencies of temperature gradient on the pipe surface and the correction factor on the heterogeneity of the temperature distribution along the pipe cross-section under the heater in the function of the velocity of flow in pipes of different diameters are plotted. These dependencies specify the thermal method of studying the fluid flow in the pipes, simplify the experiment conduction, are useful in processing of the obtained results and can be applied in measuring engineering.

The objective of this study is to improve the exit flow uniformity of a gas torch with multiple exit holes for effective heating of a steel plate. The torch was simulated, and combustion experiments were performed for validation. Based on a basic model, three different revised models were designed and analyzed with the software ANSYS FLUENT 18.2. The flow uniformity (γ) of the velocity distribution at the multiple exit holes was investigated with the pressure drop ranging from 100 to 500 Pa. The basic model had flow uniformity ranging from 0.849 to 0.852, but the three new models had γ1 = 0.901–0.912, γ2 = 0.902–0.911, and γ3 = 0.901–0.914, respectively. The maximum percentage difference of the flow uniformity index between the three new models and the basic model was 7.3%. The basic model with nonuniform flow distribution made a temperature difference of the back side of the steel plate from the center to the edge of around 229 °C, while the modified model with uniform flow distribution had a smaller temperature difference of 90 °C. The simulation results showed good agreement with our experimental results for both the basic model and the modified model. The modified gas torch made a wider and more uniform temperature distribution on a preheated steel plate than the basic one. The results revealed that a trade-off between cost and flow uniformity, as well as the new gas torch, could be applied to a steel-plate preheating process before welding.
