The experimental study was conducted using 0.10%, 0.20% and 0.30% volume concentra tion of A1203-water nanofluids. The results showed considerable enhancement of convective heat transfer using the nanofluids. The empirical correlations developed for Nusselt number in terms of Reynolds number, Prandtl number, viscosity ratio and volume concentration fit with the experimental data within ±10%. The heat transfer characteris tics were also simulated using computational fluid dynamics using FLUENT software with the standard ke model and multiple reference frame were adopted. The computational fluid dynamics （CFD） predicted Nusselt number agrees well with the experimental value and the discrepancy is found to be less than ＋8%.展开更多

Formation of secondary phases at the HAZ of Inconel 625 and grain coarsening at the HAZ of SAF 2205 were witnessed while using these filler wires. The average hardness of ER2209 weldments was found to be greater than ERNi CrMo-3 weld. Tensile fracture was observed at the weld zones for both the fillers. Impact test trials showed brittle mode of fracture on employing ER2209 filler and mixed（ductile–brittle） mode of fracture while using ERNi CrMo-3 filler. Further optical microscopy and SEM/EDS analysis were carried out across the weldments to investigate the structure–property relationships.展开更多

The heat transfer coefficient in coiled agitated vessel for water and TiO2/water nanofluid of 3 different volume concentrations （0.10%, 0.20% and 0.30%） are estimated and compared. The heat transfer coefficient for nanofluid is found to be higher than that for water and also found to increase with increasing volume concentrations. The enhancement in the convective heat transfer using nanofluid is found to be a maximum of 17.59%. Empirical correlations are separately formed for water and TiO2/water nanofluid as well as found to fit the experimental data within ±5% for water and within ±10% for nanofluid.展开更多

Microsegregation occurring during cooling of fusion zone with consequent appearance of topologically close-packed phases P and IX has been held responsible for the observed hot cracking. The present work investigated the possibility of suppressing the microsegregation in weldments by resorting to current pulse. Weldments were made by continuous current gas tungsten arc welding and pulsed current gas tungsten arc welding using ERNiCrMo-4 filler wire. The weld joints were studied with respect to microstructure, microsegregation, and mechanical properties. Optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were employed to study the microstructure. Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy was carried out to evaluate the extent of microsegregation. Tensile testing was carried out to determine the strength and ductility. The results show that the joints fabricated with pulsed current gave rise to narrower welds with practically no heat affected zone, a refined microstructure in the fusion zone, reduced microsegregation, and superior combination of mechanical properties.展开更多

Two different filler metals such as ERNiCr-3 and ERNiCrMo-4 were employed for welding Inconel 718. The primary objective of this study is to suppress or eradicate the deleterious phase such as Laves or δ （delta） which is considered to be detrimental to the weld properties. Microstructure examination corroborated the presence of unmixed zone at the HAZ for both the weldments. Tensile test trials envisaged that ERNiCrMo-4 weldments offered better tensile properties compared to ERNiCr-3 weldments, whereas the impact toughness was found to be better for ERNiCr-3 weldments. Line mapping analysis was carried out to study the elemental migration across the weldments. The structure-property relationships of the weldments were arrived at using the combined tech- niques of optical and scanning electron microscopy. Optical and SEM/EDAX analysis showed that there is no prominent occurrence of deleterious phases at the weld zone on employing these filler metals.展开更多

Investigation has been carried out on friction welded AISI 4140 and AISI 304 in molten salt of K2SO4-60% NaCI environment at 550, 600 and 650 ℃ under cyclic condition. The resulted oxide scales in the weldment have been characterized systematically by surface analytical techniques. From the results of the experiments~ it is observed that the scale thickness on low alloy steel side was higher than that on stainless steel side. Furthermore, weld interface has been found to be more susceptible to degradation than base metals due to inter diffusion of element across the interface and the formation of intermetallic compound. The influences of welding parameters and the temperature of exposure on the hot corrosion behavior of the weldment were discussed in this paper.展开更多
