Abstract Intermittent mechanical loads combined with high temperatures appear during the operation of turbines in jet engines or power plants, which can lead to high-temperature fatigue thermomechanical fatigue. Since assessment properties is a complex and time-consuming process, it essential develop validated material models that are capable predicting behavior, thus allowing extrapolation exp...

During the solution heat treatment (SHT) process of aluminum alloys, precipitates dissolve into matrix. To predict dissolution time, modeling isothermal in 6061 alloy during SHT was conducted. A precipitate model established, and flowchart designed as well. Then explicit finite-difference method employed to solve model, mobile nodes used deal with moving interface. The simulation based on real ...

TaqMan probe (dual-labeled DNA probe)-based real-time detection, one of the most sensitive and specific fluorescent detection methods, has been widely utilized in conjunction with polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Helicase-dependent amplification (HDA) is an isothermal amplification technology that has a similar reaction scheme to PCR, but replaces thermocycling with a helicase capable of unwind...

Constraining the timescales of pre-eruptive magmatic processes in active volcanic systems is paramount to understand magma chamber dynamics and the triggers for volcanic eruptions. Temporal information of magmatic processes is locked within the chemical zoning profiles of crystals but can be accessed by means of elemental diffusion chronometry. Mineral compositional zoning testifies to the occu...

Precipitation behavior and the quenching sensitivity of a spray deposited Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr alloy during isothermal heat treatment have been studied systematically. Results demonstrate that both the hardness and the ultimate tensile strength of the studied alloy decreased with the isothermal treatment time at certain temperatures. More notably, the hardness decreases rapidly after the isothermal h...

Isothermal model used in current computational fluid dynamic (CFD) model neglect the internal heat transfer during biomass devolatilization. This assumption is not reasonable for thermally-thick particles. To solve this issue, a heat transfer corrected isothermal model is introduced. In this model, two heat transfer corrected coefficients: HT-correction of heat transfer and HR-correction of rea...

Adiabatic and isothermal propagations of spherical blast wave produced due to a nuclear explosion have been studied using the Energy hypothesis of Thomas, in the nonuniform atmosphere of the earth. The explosion is considered at different heights. Entropy production is also calculated along with the strength and velocity of the shock. In both the cases; for adiabatic and isothermal flows, it ha...

In this paper, a non-isothermal two-phase flow in the cathode gas diffusion layer (GDL) of PEM fuel cell is modeled. The governing equations including energy, mass and momentum conservation equations are solved by numerical methods. Also, the optimal values of the effective parameters such as the electrodes porosity, gas diffusion layer (GDL) thickness and inlet relative humidity are calculated...

Isothermal and non-isothermal LES (Large Eddy Simulation) has been carried out to fully reproduce the characteristics of the flow field in eccentric annular channels, and rod bundles. The numerical approach is based upon boundary fitted coordinates and a fractional step algorithm; a dynamic Sub Grid Scale (SGS) model suited for this numerical environment has been implemented and tested for both...
