Surface action of a heat pulse in a tangential flow

The three-dimensional unsteady problem of the action of a localized radiation pulse on an aluminum plate of finite thickness in a tangential airflow is solved on the basis of the Euler equations in the gas phase and the heat conduction equation in the solid. The process is accompanied by the intense evaporation of plate material and the subsequent (after the action of the radiation pulse ceases) intense condensation of aluminum vapor and condensate particles on the surface. The problem is solved on the assumption that the surface is not screened by its disintegration products and the processes associated with the self-radiation of the gas are disregarded. Heat pulses of intensityq=10⁶−10⁷ W/cm² and durationt _i ≈10⁻⁴ sec are investigated. Various regimes are calculated and the effect of the governing parameters on the impulse transmitted to the surface and ablation of the target material is established. A nontraditional approach, based on the idea of statistical modeling of the motion of an inviscid non-heat-conducting gas at the kinetic level, is used for solving the gas dynamic problem. The application of the approach in question to the solution of problems of this class is justified. Moscow.

为研究不同颗粒度对Al-teflon反应行为的影响,以颗粒度25μm、1μm和20～200 nm的Al粉和微米级Teflon粉混合制备的反应材料为研究对象,基于脉冲激光烧蚀实验,结合ICCD相机和光谱仪对反应过程中的自发光成像和发射光谱进行瞬态观测。研究结果表明,Al-teflon反应材料在激光烧蚀下的反应行为体现出典型的二次反应特征,具有持续燃烧特征和明显的后燃效应,也具有较长的能量释放时间;同时,其反应行为与Al粉颗粒度密切相关:初始阶段,反应随Al粉颗粒度的降低加剧,随着反应的进行,纳米级Al粉对应的反应材料后续反应能力逐渐下降,反应强度和反应时间都小于1μm铝粉对应的反应材料。     

Shock Relations for a Detonation Regime Developing under the Action of Frequency-Modulated Laser Radiation

The oscillations of the gas dynamic parameters of plasma generated under the action of a powerful UHF-modulated laser radiation are investigated theoretically when the characteristic laser radiation intensity modulation time is significantly less than the characteristic time of variation of the gas dynamic parameters of the plasma. It is shown that in this regime the shock relations, written in the form of mass, momentum, and energy flux conservation laws, require the time derivatives of the gas dynamic quantities calculated from the corresponding differential equations to be taken into account.     

Investigation of the acceleration of aluminum particles behind a shock wave using instantaneous Laser Doppler Velocimetry

The acceleration of aluminum particles with a 5μm diameter in the flow field behind an incident shock wave was investigated experimentally in a 10-m long and 70 mm inner diameter shock tube. By means of instantaneous Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV) the velocity of the particles was observed directly. The light scattered by the moving particles is Doppler shifted and sent to the laser Doppler velocimeter. The velocimeter essentially consists of a phase-stabilized Michelson interferometer used as a sensitive spectrometer. An electro-optical circuit ensures the phase stabilization that results in a voltage signal independent of the scattered light intensity and proportional to the mean velocity of the particles at the measurement point. Because of the very short response time (1μs) of the LDV system used here, the latter gives a continuous real-time signal of the particle acceleration. To avoid particle oxidation the particles were accelerated by a high-speed nitrogen gas flow. From the measured velocity the dimensionless drag coefficient was calculated. The drag coefficient is related to the fluid dynamic force exerted by the gas on the particles. The experimental data were compared to theoretical models from the literature. A significant deviation between the model and the experimental data was observed. This deviation is supposed to be induced by the shock wave, which hits the particles and breaks them into pieces of a smaller diameter. Further experiments will be carried out in the future to check the size distribution of the particles after the shock has gone past them.      

Mechanism of formation of a high-temperature zone in the case of laser-induced mechanical breakdown of transparent polymers

The mechanical breakdown of transparent polymers that have absorbed millisecond laser radiation on inclusions present in the working material is considered. It is shown that the distribution by dimension of absorbing particles in the polymer obeys a cubic law corresponding to the aerosol distribution in the atmosphere. The process by which an inclusion is heated by laser radiation and by which a gas cavity forms around it due to pyrolysis around the material is studied. A mechanism is proposed for light absorption based on carbon black formation from gas-phase hydrocarbons both in the breakdown zone and in the growing macrocrack. The use of macrokinetic parameters of high-temperature pyrolysis for describing laser-induced mechanical breakdown yields satisfactory agreement between the experimental and calculated data.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 1, pp. 127–134, January–February, 1976.In conclusion, the authors wish to express their appreciation to Yu.

Feasibility study on strengthening heating effect of high power short pulse laser on biological tissue by micro/nano metal particles

A new method for enhancing the heating effect of high power short pulse laser on biological tissue by micro/nano metal particles was proposed. Theoretical analysis of the influences of the micro/nano particle kind, the concentration and the microcosmic distribution of micro/nano particles on the temperature response was carried out with a multi-layer hyperbolic heat conduction model with volumetric heat generation. The results indicate that embedding micro/nano particles could improve the surface temperature increase of biological tissue with short duration and reduce the deeper material temperature under the same heating condition, which would help strengthen the heating effects of high power short pulse laser on biological tissue. This study may open a new technical approach for improving laser applications.

选区激光熔化成形区粗糙表面对铺粉质量的影响:离散元模拟

选区激光熔化中, 铺粉质量会极大地影响产品的最终质量. 然而, 成形区粗糙表面对铺粉质量影响的研究较少. 因此, 本文以成形区粗糙表面作为新的铺粉基板, 通过离散元法, 研究铺粉过程中成形区的表面形貌和工艺参数对铺粉质量的影响, 并分析铺粉过程中金属粉末在成形区粗糙表面的颗粒动力学和颗粒沉积机制. 结果表明, 将激光扫描方向与铺粉方向旋转一定角度可有效提高粉末层质量, 增加铺粉层厚可减小成形区粗糙表面对铺粉质量的影响. 减小搭接率可提高成形区对颗粒的滞留能力, 从而使更多的颗粒沉积在成形区, 提高粉床填充密度, 但是粉末颗粒会与成形区的粗糙表面碰撞, 产生颗粒迸溅现象. 此外, 铺粉过程中, 由于成形区粗糙度的增大, 成形区粗糙表面上的粉堆产生的强力链、力拱数量多于表面光滑的成形区. 在滚轮作用下, 力拱断裂导致颗粒重新排列, 形成致密的粉末层. 在成形区边界处, 力拱的产生会最终导致边界处的粉末层出现空斑缺陷. 本研究有助于通过优化工艺提高粉床质量.      

Vibrational relaxation of diatomic molecules in a non-Boltzmann thermostat

The action of resonance IR laser radiation on a molecular gas leads, at high-power absorption intensity, to a breakdown in the equilibrium (Boltzmann) energy distribution in the internal degrees of freedom [1]. Under realistic conditions, molecular gases usually are (due to small amounts of impurities or isotopic components) multicomponent systems. In this case resonance IR laser radiation (or other methods of selective action), disturbing the distribution function of the primary gas, does not interact directly with impurities. The problem thus arises of determining the distribution function of the impurity gas interacting with the nonequilibrium (non-Boltzmann) thermostat. The present paper, devoted to the solution of this problem, treats the distribution function of harmonic oscillators A, consisting of a small amount of impurities in a system of harmonic oscillators B with given nonequilibrium distribution functions of vibrational energy. The behavior of a system in a nonequilibrium thermostat was first considered in [2, 3] where, as well as in [4, 5], it was shown that in a non-Maxwellian thermostat with a small amount of harmonic oscillator impurities, a Boltzmann distribution in harmonic oscillator vibrational energies is established under stationary conditions, with a temperature differing from the gas-kinetic temperature of the thermostat, defined in terms of the mean-square velocity. The behavior of a small amount of impurities (heavy monoatomic particles and harmonic oscillators) in a non-Maxwellian thermostat of a light gas was further investigated in [6–8]. Unlike the papers mentioned, the present one considers the behavior of a small amount of harmonic oscillator impurities in a thermostat with a Maxwellian velocity distribution and with a nonequilibrium (non-Boltzmann) distribution in vibrational energies.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 5, pp. 3–10, September–October, 1978.     

Aluminum foam-polymer hybrid structures (APM aluminum foam) in compression testing

The Advanced Pore Morphology (APM) process, a new method for production of aluminum foam-polymer hybrid materials, is described. Small volume aluminum foam spheres are produced first and then adhesively joined in a separate process step to realize an APM foam part. Detailed information on mechanical properties of this new hybrid material is given. Results of uniaxial and hydrostatic compression tests are summarized and evaluated to show how typical parameters characterizing material and process such as spatial arrangement, size and density of the foam elements influence the global properties. Two levels of the hierarchical architecture of the material are evaluated—namely the individual foam spheres and the hybrid structure. Variation of adhesives and adhesive coating thickness used in bonding the spheres in conjunction with study of unbonded specimens provides additional insight in the influence of this bond. First estimates on density dependence of mechanical properties are derived from the experimental data. Distinctive differences between APM and conventional aluminum foams are qualitatively explained. Throughout the study, AlSi7 aluminum foam produced from chemically identical precursor material according to the powder metallurgical FOAMINAL^® process is included as reference material.     

Rheological properties of suspensions of polyethylene-coated aluminum nanoparticles

Ultrafine aluminum powder was identified as very promising fuels for novel energetic materials formulations. However, the large specific surface area of this powder facilitates its oxidation and greatly reduces its shelf life. Therefore, different coating processes were proposed to solve this problem. The rheology of viscous suspensions of nanoparticles still remains poorly understood and the effect of the coating of such particles on the flow behavior is even more difficult to assess. We have studied the rheology of ultrafine aluminum suspensions in three low molecular weight polymers of different viscosities: a hydroxy-terminated polybutadiene, a polypropylene glycol, and a polysiloxane. The nanosize aluminum powder was previously coated by a thin layer of high-density polyethylene using an in situ polymerization process. The rheological characterization of the suspensions was conducted by the means of steady and oscillatory shear flow measurements for noncoated and coated particles. The effect of the coating process on the rheology of the suspensions is discussed in terms of the interactions between the particles and the suspending fluids.     

Numerical simulation of aerated powder consolidation

When a fine powder is dumped into a silo, the gas trapped by the particles will slowly escape by diffusing through the material. The corresponding uneven gas pressure distribution creates a body force that is taken into account through Darcy's law. By using spatial averaging, the formulation, even though essentially one-dimensional in space, includes effects due the geometry of the container. An efficient and robust numerical scheme based on a differential algebraic equation formulation is proposed and implemented. Various computational results are presented and discussed to establish the validity of the approach.     

Structure of the nonisothermal swirling gas-droplet flow behind an abrupt tube expansion

Flow structure and heat and mass transfer in a swirling two-phase stream is numerically modeled using the Reynolds stress transport model. The gas phase is described by the 3DRANS system of equations with account for the inverse influence of particles on the transport processes in the gas. The gas phase turbulence is calculated using the Reynolds stress transport model with account for the presence of disperse particles. The two-phase nonswirling flow behind an abrupt tube expansion contains a secondary corner vortex which is absent from the swirling flow. The disperse phase is redistributed over the tube cross-section. Large particles are concentrated in the wall region of the channel under the action of the centrifugal forces, while the smaller particles are in the central zone of the chamber.

Explosively driven particle fields imaged using a high speed framing camera and particle image velocimetry

A high speed framing camera and a particle image velocimetry instrument were used to determine the properties of explosively driven particle fields in early microsecond and later millisecond times. Test items were configured in a two inch long cylindrical shape with a half inch diameter core of organic explosive. The core was surrounded by a particle bed of aluminum or tungsten powder of a specific particle size distribution. Position data from the leading edge of the particle fronts for each charge was recorded with a high speed framing camera at early time and with a particle image velocimetry (PIV) instrument at later time to determine particle velocity. Using a PIV image, a velocity gradient along the length of the particle field was established by using the mean particle velocity value determined from three separate horizontal bands that transverse the particle field. The results showed slower particles at the beginning of the particle field closest to the source and faster ones at the end. Differences in particle dispersal, luminescence, and agglomeration were seen when changes in the initial particle size and material type were made. The aluminum powders showed extensive luminescence with agglomeration forming large particle structures while the tungsten powder showed little luminescence, agglomeration and no particle structures. Combining velocity data from the high speed framing camera and PIV, the average drag coefficient for each powder type was determined. The particle field velocities and drag coefficients at one meter showed good agreement with the numerical data produced from a computational fluid dynamics code that takes advantage of both Eulerian and Lagrangian solvers to track individual particles after a set post detonation time interval.     

On the motion of particles in a fluid under the influence of a large velocity gradient

The motion of seeding particles as used in laser Doppler anemometry is investigated in the presence of a large velocity gradient across aerodynamic shocks under different flow conditions. Experimentally obtained results are presented and compared with theoretical predictions based upon the size distribution of the seeding particles used. It is found that the agreement of experimental and theoretical results depends on the flow conditions as well as on the particle material.
