High-temperature oxidation behavior of iron-based superalloy (800H) was investigated at 750°C, 850°C, and 950°C in air for 96 h. Weight gain was used to determine the kinetics of oxidation. The surface of the alloy was characterized by using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy after oxidation process. The results showed that mass gain increased rapidly in the initial stage of oxidation at high temperature. The alloy obeyed parabolic behavior at 750°C, 850°C, and 950°C. The oxide layer mainly contains oxides of chromium oxide, nickel oxide, iron oxide, and spinel chromium nickel oxide. The thickness of the oxide scales increased with time and temperature.
Nonlinear Thin liquid film is commonly applied in numerous engineering fields, including the Passive Containment Cooling System of the nuclear power plant and steam dryer in the steam generator of nuclear power plants. The counter gas flow effect through a rectangular channel was inspected, the flow is motivated by the pressure gradient and shear gas stress while the gravity force does not influence the flow. Different flow rates of gas were set to different Reynolds numbers from 6950 to 34800 with influence on a different range of input water Reynolds number from 170 to 875 respectively. The data was collected at different sections from inlet flow until the separation section. The thickness of liquid film investigated using (PLIF) experiments. The thickness has been calculated via digital image processing and MATLAB code. Film thickness was obtained as a function of time and frequency. Results were analyzed using statistic tools such as property density function (PDF), fast Fourier transform (FFT), and power spectral density (PSD).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
