Porosity Range

Porous materials (PMs) have been widely used since the development of powder metallurgy. PM samples are obtained by various methods, while the structure varies from sample to sample. Deviation from a given structure leads to a deviation of the specified properties up to 30%, including acoustic. Selective laser melting (SLM), allows to obtain samples with a low structural deviation (up to 13%) in a wide porosity range P=0.3-0.7. An increase in the sound absorption coefficient and the expansion of the frequency range allows to use such samples in noise reduction units’ designs. Nine samples with different porosity and cell shape were obtained by the SLM method with the use of AlSi10Mg aluminum powder obtained by gas atomization and BB751P nickel powder obtained by plasma centrifugal spraying. The porosity of the samples (P) varied in the range (0.3–0.7), the diameter was D = 34.5 mm, and the height varied in the range of 15–45 mm. The acoustic characteristics comparison of traditional PMs with porous fused material (PFM) by the sound absorption index shows that PM, as a rule, are superior to PFM, while it is approximately equal to porous cast

The Difference

A bulk specimen and two different lattice sandwich structures composed of 316L stainless steel were fabricated via selective laser melting. This study analysed the acoustic properties, including sound insulation and sound absorption, of the three kinds of structures, which were produced via selective laser melting under the same process parameters. The results showed that the difference in the unit structures, rather than microstructural difference, was the main reason for the difference in acoustic properties between the samples. Under the same process parameters, the microstructure of the different structures had the same cell structure. However, the sound absorption properties of the lattice sandwich structures were better than those of the bulk sample in the measured frequency range of 1–6.3 kHz. The lattice sandwich structure with 2.5 × 2.5 × 2.5 mm3 unit structures exhibited excellent sound insulation properties in the frequency range of 1–5 kHz.

Selective laser melting (SLM) is one of the additive manufacturing technologies that allows us to produce complex shape metallic objects from powder feedstock. Al-alloys are very promising materials in selective laser melting. In this paper, atomized metal powders of various aluminum alloys are investigated: 1) deformable alloys АК4, АК6; 2) cast alloys АК9ph, АК12; 3) deformable hardened alloy D16. As a part of the work, the particle shape, particle size distribution and technical characteristics of the powders were investigated, and also the compliance of materials with the requirements of additive technologies (SLM) was determined.

Powders of X6CrNiTi18-10 stainless steel were fabricated from original workpieces of different grade by gas atomization method. It was found that it is necessary to use argon as a gas for gas atomization of X6CrNiTi18-10 steel, since the use of nitrogen leads to the formation of its compounds, namely, titanium nitride. It is shown that all used workpieces – electric arc, electric slag and vacuum arc refinement – allow one to obtain powders suitable for further utilization in selective laser melting technology of 3D printing. The main physicochemical and technological properties of the obtained powders have been investigated. Changes in the chemical composition and quality of the powders are not significant within the X6CrNiTi18-10 grade. The 0...20 μm fraction of powders does not have fluidity, and thus cannot be used for additive technologies. The fraction 20...63 μm have suitable rheological properties for additive technologies and may be used in selective laser melting (SLM) process. The yield of target fraction 20 ... 63 microns was ≈45%. The fraction 63...120 μm may be used for the direct metal deposition (DMD) additive technology. Considering the economic aspect of the technology, it is preferable to use original workpieces of X6CrNiTi18-10 steel produced by electric arc or electroslag process, since the market price of vacuum arc steel is significantly higher. The fraction of ferrite phase in the powder increases with a decrease of particle size of the resulting powder and is lower comparing to the original workpiece. In the future, for a detailed study of the technological properties, it is planned to grow samples from each type of the obtained powders on installation for selective laser melting and direct laser deposition to determine the physical and mechanical properties of fabricated samples (tensile and impact bending tests) and carry out metallographic studies.

An aerodynamic sound generated by a flow inside a duct is one of the noise pro- blems. Flows in ducts with uneven surfaces such as grooves or cavities can be seen in various industrial devices and industrial products such as air-conditioning equipment in various plants or piping products. In this article, we have performed experiments and simulations to clarify acoustic and flow-induced sound characteris- tics of L-shaped duct with a shallow cavity installed. The experiments and simula- tions were performed under several inflow velocity conditions. The results show that the characteristics of the flow-induced sound in the duct are strongly affected by the acoustic characteristics of the duct interior sound field and the location of the shallow cavity. Especially, it was found that the acoustic characteristics were af- fected by the location of the shallow cavity in the frequency range between 1000 Hz and 1700 Hz.

The Core

Studies on recycled materials emerged during recent years. This paper investigates samples’ sound absorption properties for panels fabricated of a mixture of paper sludge (PS) and clay mixture. PS was the core material. The sound absorption was measured. We also consider the influence of an air gap between panels and rigid backing. Different air gaps (50, 100, 150, 200 mm) simulate existing acoustic panel systems. Finally, the PS and clay composite panel sound absorption coefficients are compared to those for a typical commercial absorptive ceiling panel. The average sound absorption coefficient of PS-clay composite panels (αavg. in the frequency range from 250 to 1600 Hz) was up to 0.55. The resulting average sound absorption coefficient of panels made of recycled (but unfinished) materials is even somewhat higher than for the finished commercial (finished) acoustic panel (αavg. = 0.51).

Absorption Performance

The diffuse sound absorption was investigated theoretically and experimentally for a periodically arranged sound absorber composed of perforated plates with extended tubes (PPETs) and porous materials. The calculation formulae related to the boundary condition are derived for the periodic absorbers, and then the equations are solved numerically. The influences of the incidence and azimuthal angle, and the period of absorber arrangement are investigated on the sound absorption. The sound-absorption coefficients are tested in a standard reverberation room for a periodic absorber composed of units of three parallel-arranged PPETs and porous material. The measured 1/3-octave band sound-absorption coefficients agree well with the theoretical prediction. Both theoretical and measured results suggest that the periodic PPET absorbers have good sound-absorption performance in the low- to mid-frequency range in diffuse field.

Infrared (IR) reflectivities are registered in the frequency range of 50–2000 cm[Formula: see text] for Ag3In5Se9 and Ag3In5Te9 single crystals grown by Bridgman method. Three infrared-active modes are detected in spectra. The optical parameters, real and imaginary parts of the dielectric function, the function of energy losses, refractive index, absorption index and absorption coefficient were calculated from reflectivity experiments. The frequencies of transverse and longitudinal optical modes (TO and LO modes) and oscillator strength were also determined. The bands detected in infrared spectra were tentatively attributed to various vibration types (valence and valence-deformation). The inversion of LO- and TO-mode frequencies of the sandwiched pair was observed for studied crystals.

Abstract Efficient ultrasonic noise reduction by using enclosures requires the knowledge of absorbing properties of materials in the frequency range above 4 kHz. However, standardized methods enable determination of absorption coefficients of materials in the frequency range up to 4 kHz. For this reason, it is proposed to carry out measurements of the sound absorption properties of materials in the free field by means of a tone-burst technique in the frequency range from 4 kHz to 40 kHz at angles of incidence varying from 0° to 60°. The absorption coefficient of a material is calculated from the reflection coefficient obtained by reflecting a tone-burst from both a perfectly reflecting panel and a combination of this panel and the sample of the tested material. The tests results show that mineral wool and polyurethane open-cell foam possess very good absorbing properties in this frequency range.

Abstract Within the present study, the effect of hemp (40 wt%) and polyactide (60 wt%), non-woven surface density, thickness and number of fibre web layers on the sound absorption coefficient and the sound transmission loss in the frequency range from 50 to 5000 Hz is analysed. The sound insulation properties of the experimental samples have been determined, compared to the ones in practical use, and the possible use of material has been defined. Non-woven materials are ideally suited for use in acoustic insulation products because the arrangement of fibres produces a porous material structure, which leads to a greater interaction between sound waves and fibre structure. Of all the tested samples (A, B and D), the non-woven variant B exceeded the surface density of sample A by 1.22 times and 1.15 times that of sample D. By placing non-wovens one above the other in 2 layers, it is possible to increase the absorption coefficient of the material, which depending on the frequency corresponds to C, D, and E sound absorption classes. Sample A demonstrates the best sound absorption of all the three samples in the frequency range from 250 to 2000 Hz. In the test frequency range from 50 to 5000 Hz, the sound transmission loss varies from 0.76 (Sample D at 63 Hz) to 3.90 (Sample B at 5000 Hz).

The paper presents the results of studying the possibility of using the selective laser melting method for production of permanent magnets. This process allows to manufacture not only product models and prototypes, but also finished functional products by adding material layer by layer and bonding particles and layers to each other. We have considered the application areas of selective laser melting (SLM) based on powders obtained by different methods for the study. In addition, we have analyzed the traditional magnetic alloy casting technology, studied magnetic materials, and compared the powder magnet properties with standard data. We have found that the parameters of powders obtained by gas atomization are qualitatively superior to those of powders obtained using other methods, whereas the resulting magnets meet the requirements for magnets. Based on the 25Kh15KA alloy powder atomized by gas atomization, a SLM plant allows to manufacture permanent magnets with a material density of 7.59–7.55 g/cu.cm, which meets the requirements recommended by the State Standard GOST 24897-81, and to obtain the magnet properties that can be achieved using traditional metallurgical technologies.
