Silicon deposition on 3C-SiC seeds was studied as a function of seed orientations and thicknesses. The 3C-SiC seeds were grown on silicon substrates of (100), (110), (111) and (211) orientations by standard two-step CVD (low temperature carbonization followed by high temperature epitaxy). Then, the Si layers were grown onto these SiC seeds at various temperatures. Almost all the conditions gave polycrystalline deposit. At high deposition temperature (1350°C) the Si deposit was composed of separated hillocks and was never fully covering the 3C-SiC seeds. Lower deposition temperatures (≤ 1100°C) allowed obtaining silicon full coverage but not full epitaxy. Focusing on (100) orientation, it was shown that (100) Si deposit could be obtained but only on the as carbonized 3C-SiC sample, i.e. with the thinner SiC layer.

Transient cooling techniques were developed for the direct simultaneous measurement of full coverage multi-jet impingement heat transfer coefficient and cooling effectiveness under high temperature combustion convective wall heating conditions. A step change in the impingement coolant flow rate was made and the change in temperature recorded as a function of time, from which the heat transfer coefficient was calculated. A comparison between steady state and transient techniques was also made on a conventional low temperature electrically heated test facility and good agreement was found. There was reasonable agreement between the high temperature heat transfer coefficients and the low temperature results, using similar transient cooling techniques. There was little influence of the coolant to wall temperature ratio on the impingement heat transfer coefficient or the cooling effectiveness obtained from the high temperature test rig. The transient technique was used to study the influence of crossflow in the impingement gap on both the cooling effectiveness and the heat transfer coefficient for a range of low pressure loss impingement walls with an X/D of 1.9–11.

The deposition kinetics and microstructure of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of Nb on the Mo substrate at different deposition variables is investigated. The morphology of CVD Nb is columnar, it exhibits a strong preferred orientation and its growth direction is perpendicular to the substrate surface, the deposition rate and grain size increased with the increase of deposition temperature. The deposition rate conforms to the Arrhenius formula, the activation energy [Formula: see text] at high temperature and low temperature is 0.85 kJ/mol and 7.2 kJ/mol, respectively. The rate-limiting step for CVD Nb at high temperature is chemical reaction step, whereas that is the mass transport step at low temperature. Chlorination temperature has a weak influence on deposition rate and grain structure, the deposition rate and grain size of CVD Nb increased with the increase of the chlorine flow and hydrogen flow, the maximum deposition rate is [Formula: see text], thus, the optimum deposition temperature is 1200[Formula: see text]C, chlorination temperature is 350[Formula: see text]C, hydrogen flow is 400 ml, chlorine flow is 200 ml.

Grains of pigeonite, a calcium-poor silicate mineral of the pyroxene group, from the Whin Sill dolerite have been ion-thinned and examined by TEM. The pigeonite is strongly zoned chemically from the composition Wo8En64FS28 in the core to Wo13En34FS53 at the rim. Two phase transformations have occurred during the cooling of this pigeonite:- exsolution of augite, a more calcic pyroxene, and inversion of the pigeonite from the high- temperature C face-centred form to the low-temperature primitive form, with the formation of antiphase boundaries (APB's). Different sequences of these exsolution and inversion reactions, together with different nucleation mechanisms of the augite, have created three distinct microstructures depending on the position in the grain.In the core of the grains small platelets of augite about 0.02μm thick have farmed parallel to the (001) plane (Fig. 1). These are thought to have exsolved by homogeneous nucleation. Subsequently the inversion of the pigeonite has led to the creation of APB's.

The overall dimensions and mass of wind power units with capacities larger than 10 MW can be improved and their cost can be decreased by developing and constructing superconducting synchronous generators. The article analyzes foreign conceptual designs of superconducting synchronous generators based on different principles: with the use of high- and low-temperature superconductivity, fully superconducting or only with a superconducting excitation system, and with the use of different materials (MgB2, Bi2223, YBCO). A high cost of superconducting materials is the main factor impeding commercial application of superconducting generators. In view of the state of the art in the technology for manufacturing superconductors and their cost, a conclusion is drawn, according to which a synchronous gearless superconducting wind generator with a capacity of 10 MW with the field winding made of a high-temperature superconducting material (MgB2, Bi-2223 or YBCO) with the «ferromagnetic stator — ferromagnetic rotor» topology, with the stator diameter equal to 7—9 m, and with the number of poles equal to 32—40 has prospects for its practical use in the nearest future.

AbstractHigh-temperature X-ray diffraction techniques were employed to study the condensation reactions which occur when sodium orthophosphates are heated to 380°C. Crystalline Na4P2O7 and an amorphous phase were formed first from an equimolar mixture of Na2HPO4·NaH2PO4 and Na2HPO4 at temperatures above 150°C. Further heating resulted in the formation of Na5P3O10-I (high-temperature form) at the expense of the crystalline Na4P4O7 and amorphous phase. Crystalline Na5P3O10-II (low-temperature form) appears after Na5P3O10-I.Conditions which affect the yield of crystalline Na4P2O7 and amorphous phase as intermediates and their effect on the yield of Na5P3O10 are also presented.

ABSTRACT Salinity is prejudicial to plant development, causing different types of damage to species, or even between genotypes of the same species, with the effects being aggravated when combined with other types of stress, such as heat stress. The aim of this study was to evaluate the tolerance of cowpea genotypes (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp.) to salt stress at different temperatures. Seeds of the Pujante, Epace 10 and Marataoã genotypes were placed on paper rolls (Germitest®) moistened with different salt concentrations of 0.0 (control), 1.5, 3.0, 4.5 and 6.0 dS m-1, and placed in a germination chamber (BOD) at temperatures of 20, 25, 30 and 35°C. The experiment was conducted in a completely randomised design, in a 3 × 4 × 5 scheme of subdivided plots, with four replications per treatment. The variables under analysis were germination percentage, first germination count, shoot and root length, and total seedling dry weight. At temperatures of 30 and 35°C, increases in the salt concentration were more damaging to germination in the Epace 10 and Pujante genotypes, while for the Marataoã genotype, damage occurred at the temperature of 20°C. At 25°C, germination and vigour in the genotypes were higher, with the Pujante genotype proving to be more tolerant to salt stress, whereas Epace 10 and Marataoã were more tolerant to high temperatures. Germination in the cowpea genotypes was more sensitive to salt stress when subjected to heat stress caused by the low temperature of 20°C or high temperature of 35°C.
