In this article, a vertical 2-D Reynolds stress model is established for the simulation of turbulent flows around sand dunes, and water-sand boundary conditions are set with particular attention. By numerical simulations, the following conclusions can be drawn. (1) The flow resistance in rivers with sand dunes could be divided into the sand-grain resistance and the sand dune resistance, and the sand-grain resistance coefficient mainly depends on Reynolds number, relative sand grain roughness and sand dune steepness. This coefficient in rivers with sand dunes would be larger than that calculated in a flat riverbed, and the steeper the sand dunes, the larger the sand-grain resistance coefficient. (2) The sand dune resistance coefficient mainly depends on the relative sand dune height and sand dune steepness, the steeper the sand dunes, the larger the sand dune resistance coefficient. (3) For the flat riverbed, the turbulent eddy viscosity coefficient and the sediment diffusion coefficient are approximately identical, but for the sand dune riverbed, in the vertical position, where the sediment diffusion coefficient reaches its maximum, it would be higher than the turbulent eddy viscosity coefficient.展开更多

To investigate the coarsening behavior and the growth mechanism of MX carbonitrides during long-term aging, experiments were performed at 700, 800, 850, and 900℃ for different periods (1, 24, 70, and 100 h). The precipitation behavior of carbonitrides in specimens subjected to various aging conditions was explored using carbon replicas and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations. The corresponding sizes ofMX carbonitrides were measured. The results demonstrates that MX carbonitrides precipitate in type 347H austenitic steel as Nb(C,N). The coarsening rate constant is time-independent; however, an increase in aging temperature results in an increase in coarsening rate of Nb(C,N). The coarsening process was analyzed according to the calculated diffusion activation energy of Nb(C,N). When the aging temperature was 800-900℃, the mean activation energy was 294 kJ·mol -1, and the coarsening behavior was controlled primarily by the diffusion of Nb atoms.展开更多
