Progress in Advanced High Temperature

چکیده
The need for advanced materials capability has never been as great as at this time in our nation's history. Energy shortages demand more efficient operation of existing equipment of all types as well as new and imaginative methods of power conversion. Advanced materials are the key to achieving improved performance via higher cycle operating temperatures, lighter structural components, and adequate resistance to the various environmental factors associated with such equipment. Significant progress has recently been made in many high temperature material categories pertinent to such applications by the industrial community, DOD and NASA. These include metal matrix composites, superalloys, directionally solidified eutectics, coatings, and ceramics. Each of these material categories is reviewed and the current state-of-the-art identified, including some assessment, when appropriate, of progress, problems, and future directions.

Electrical Resistivity Measurement of the Molten Cordierite Glass Using Two-wire method
Electrical resistivity (ER) is a main parameter in the melting processes of glasses. However, its measurement is difficult at high temperatures. In this study the electrical resistivity of different cordierite glass samples in the molten state was measured in the temperature range of 1100˚C to 1550 ˚C using the two-wire method. It was attempted to decrease the electrical resistivity of the glas...
متن کاملSpark Plasma Sintering of Ultra-High Temperature Tantalum/Hafnium Carbides Composite
TaC and HfC are thought to have the highest melting point (~4000°C) among all refractory materials. The binary solid solution of TaC and HfC (Ta4HfC5) is also considered as the most refractory material with the melting point over 4000 °C and valuable physical and mechanical properties. The main goal of this work is to fabricate TaC/HfCbased composites which consolidated by means of spark plasma...
