Heat generation in devices for magnetic-pulse processing of materials

The problem of analysis of non-stationary heat generation due to the flow of electric current in devices for magnetic-pulse processing of materials is considered. An analysis of the available information sources led to the conclusion that a large number of studies in this area are devoted to the study of heat transfer processes during technological operations of induction heating. In other technological operations of magnetic-pulse processing of materials, heat release is also significant. In this case, a non-stationary inhomogeneous temperature field can lead to significant temperature deformations. This, in turn, can cause a loss in the performance of the device due to destruction or irreversible deformation. Adequate modeling of non-stationary temperature propagation in this case is an obligatory step in carrying out computational analysis in the process of designing technological devices. A general strategy is proposed for determining the propagation of a non-stationary temperature field in the presence of a non-stationary non-uniform electromagnetic field. The proposed strategy presupposes a general solution of the problems of the propagation of the electromagnetic field and the temperature field within the framework of a unified design scheme. The use of the finite element method is proposed as a numerical method. The finite element method, when used in such problems, allows one to draw up iterative procedures that can be used to take into account the nonlinear effects associated with the influence of temperature on the electro-physical properties of materials. The problem of sequential determination of a non-stationary, non-uniform electromagnetic field and a non-stationary temperature field in composite matrices intended for electromagnetic pressing of powders of super-strong refractory materials is considered. The distribution of some quantitative characteristics of the electromagnetic field, as well as the dependence of temperature on time are presented.

HEAT TRANSFER INVESTIGATION FOR A MULTILAYER INSULATION SYSTEM VIA RADIATIVE-CONDUCTIVE APPROACH UNDER LOW TEMPERATURE CONDITIONS IN SPACE

Thermal insulation is an important area, not restricted to mechanical engineering, but widely studied in environmentalissues, such as global warming and, above all, energy-saving, since controlling the heat flux on microprocessorsthrough temperature control on components in space applications. This work focuses on controlling the temperature incomponents that could not lose or gain so much heat in space, especiallywhen the overall safety of sending satellites onspecific missions is required. To ensure that, Multilayer Insulation (MLI) is used. With fluid mechanics and radiation-conductionheat transfer theory, it was possible to calculate the transient and stationary temperature field and heat flux inMLI. The boundary temperatures are specified at 300K and 4K. The results, from solving the resulting discretized ODE,simulated with fsolve and odeintScipy subroutines in Python, able to solve the equations numerically, were shown. Thedata given by the simulation was able to indicate the impacts of varying the layer density, emissivity of screen, the distancebetween screens and the perforation coefficient in stationary and transient approaches. A way to simulate the performanceof MLI numerically was presented. Modifying emissivity (e) showed variations higher than in the perforation coefficient(ξ). Layer density controls the distance between layers (d ), changing the conduction heat transfer. In the transient casesimulation, it was possible to notice that varying parameters impact in time to reach steady-state and final temperature.

SOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM OF THERMOELASTICITY FOR NONLINEAR ELASTIC INHOMOGENEOUS THICK-WALL CYLINDRICAL SHELL

The distinctive paper presents the calculation of a thick-walled cylindrical shell with hinged and free ends on the temperature effect. The shell consists of three layers: two layers of heat-resistant concrete and steel out­er layer. The calculation takes into account the piecewise linear inhomogeneity of the shell due to its three-layer construction and the continuous inhomogeneity caused by the action of a stationary temperature field. To take into account the nonlinear nature of concrete deformation, the problem was solved using the method of successive ap­proximations described in [1]. A comparative analysis of the results of the calculation of the shell with and without taking into account the continuous inhomogeneity and the nonlinear nature of the deformation of concrete is given. Comparison of the results showed a significant decrease in circumferential stresses in the most loaded concrete lay­ers when calculating the shell with regard to physical nonlinearity and heterogeneity of materials.
