超超临界汽缸高温强度及多轴蠕变分析

超超临界汽轮机汽缸的多轴蠕变分析与高温强度设计对机组安全高效运行至关重要.对于在超超临界参数下中压内缸,它的主要破坏来自于高温和复杂应力共同作用下的蠕变损伤.随着蒸汽参数(温度T,压力P)的不断提升,原汽缸承受的蠕变损伤越发严重,因此有必要进行局部结构改进.应用基于受约束孔洞长大机制的Cocks-Ashby多轴蠕变模型对新老汽缸进行了对比分析,并采用了有限元计算方法得到了汽缸多轴蠕变等效应变的分布.结果表明:基于孔洞长大蠕变理论能较好地预测汽缸危险点的多轴蠕变;新汽缸比老汽缸在抗蠕变性能方面有一定改善.     

An Experimental Facility to Measure the Chemorheological Response of Inflated Elastomeric Membranes at High Temperature

An experimental facility for measuring the time-dependent deformation of an inflated elastomer membrane at elevated temperatures is presented. The facility controls the temperature and inflation volume of a membrane specimen and measures the pressure and deformation field. The finite deformation field is determined by comparing the configuration of the inflated membrane to the initially flat reference configuration, determined by photogrammetry of an array of dots printed on the surface of the membrane. The facility provides an effective method to investigate the changes in mechanical properties due to scission and cross-linking in the context of a simple elastomeric structure that has a distribution of multi-axial deformation states.     

Shear of rubber tube springs

Rubber tube springs consist basically of cylindrical rubber tubes bonded on their inner and outer curved surfaces to rigid cylindrical tubes. They are widely used as flexible linkages, for example in vehicle suspensions. Rotation of one rigid tube with respect to the other about their common axis subjects the rubber tube to azimuthal shear. Displacement of one rigid tube with respect to the other along their common axis puts the rubber tube into axial shear. Using FEA, we have calculated the stresses set up in both cases, for a long rubber tube of a non-linearly elastic (neo-Hookean) material. The results are compared for the two modes of deformation, and with analytical predictions where available. For a long tube the shear stresses are substantially independent of the end conditions, but the normal stresses are strongly affected, as found previously for sheared rectangular blocks [A.N. Gent, J.B. Suh, S.G. Kelly III, Mechanics of rubber shear springs, Int. J. Nonlinear Mech. 42 (2007) 241-249]. If the end surfaces are stress-free, unexpectedly large normal stresses are generated, even in azimuthal shear. These high tensile stresses are attributed to restraints at the inner and outer cylindrical boundaries that compensate for the absence of stresses on the end surfaces that would be needed to maintain a simple shear deformation. Thus, the boundary conditions affect the stresses everywhere (in contrast to an “end effect” that would diminish away from the ends). Small departures from complete incompressibility are found to lower the internal stresses markedly, and even cause the sign of the stresses to be reversed.

Three-dimensional modeling and numerical analysis of rate-dependent irrecoverable deformation in shape memory alloys

Shape memory alloys (SMAs) provide an attractive solid-state actuation alternative to engineers in various fields due to their ability to exhibit recoverable deformations while under substantial loads. Many constitutive models describing this repeatable phenomenon have been proposed, where some models also capture the effects of rate-independent irrecoverable deformations (i.e., plasticity) in SMAs. In this work, we consider a topic not addressed to date: the generation and evolution of irrecoverable viscoplastic strains in an SMA material. Such strains appear in metals subjected to sufficiently high temperatures. The need to account for these effects in SMAs arises when considering one of two situations: the exposure of a conventional SMA material (e.g., NiTi) to high temperatures for a non-negligible amount of time, as occurs during shape-setting, or the utilization of new high temperature shape memory alloys (HTSMAs), where the elevated transformation temperatures induce transformation and viscoplastic behaviors simultaneously. A new three-dimensional constitutive model based on established SMA and viscoplastic modeling techniques is derived that accounts for these behaviors. The numerical implementation of the model is described in detail. Several finite element analysis (FEA) examples are provided, demonstrating the utility of the new model and its implementation in assessing the effects of viscoplastic behaviors in shape memory alloys.
