Macropore can be defined from three aspects. Segregation of the ores during dumping was studied according to particle kinematics. Small ores become smaller under the effect of acid and weathering. Clay in the rainwater from the hillside precipitates in the dump. Segregation and fine ores are the main causes in macropore. The permeability in coarse ores is better than that in fine ores. The mechanism in the preferential flows was studied combining the fast conducting effect of the macropore. Experimental result shows that, at certain application rate, fine ore area is saturated while large volume of solution flows laterally to the coarse ore area and leaks out quickly through the macropores. Thus the mechanism of preferential solution flows is further illustrated.展开更多

The movement and deformation of ground surface caused by underground water solution mining is believed to be much weaker than that caused by well lane mining, which can be predicted by the stochastic medium theory method. On the basis of analysis on the engineering practice of water solution mining, its corresponding parameters can be obtained from the in-site data of the belt water and sand filling mining in engineering analog approach.展开更多

The experimental results indicate that the spray pyrolysis efficiency is higher than that of static pyrolysis process, and the reaction and evaporation process lead to a multi-plot state of the alumina products by spray pyrolysis. Aluminum phase starts to transform into γ-Al2O3 at spray pyrolysis temperature of 600 °C, which is about 200 °C lower than that of static pyrolysis process.

The results showed that the optimum solution treatment process for the alloy was 470 ℃, 2 h. The tensile strength, yield strength,and elongation of the samples after the aging treatment at 120℃ for 24 h were 486 MPa, 431 MPa, and 14.8%,respectively. The alloy produced more copious recrystallization with the augment of solution temperature and the extension of holding time. While the second phase of η(MgZn_(2)), and T(AlZnMgCu) in the matrix was not fully re-dissolved under the treatment condition of lower temperature or shorter holding time. Interestingly, the Zr aggregation was observed in the samples treated at 510 ℃ for 2 h, which led to the growth of the second phase particles and the increase of their area fraction.展开更多

The results show that hemimorphite is soluble in NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O system and its residue exists in the form of an amorphous SiO2 layer on the hemimorphite surface. The XPS data also indicate that the Si 2p3/2 and O ls spectra of the hemimorphite are broadened and shift to higher binding energies and their binding energies are closer to silica with an increase of total ammonia and time. Solubility of hemimorphite in NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O system was measured by means of isothermal solution method at 298.15 K based on the study of the dissolution mechanism of hemimorphite. The results show that the solubility of zinc in solution increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of cr（NH3） （total ammonia concentration） at different NH3/NH4^＋ ratios. The solubility of silicon in solution decreases from 0.0334 mol/kg in ct（NH3）-4.1245 mol/kg NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O solution to 0.0046 mol/kg in cT（NH3）=7.6035 mol/kg NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O solution.展开更多

Fluid field is changed under the exciting of rotor vibration. On the same ti me, a net force caused by fluid pressure exerts on rotor, which will change roto r vibration. So, the fluid-solid coupled analysis method must be used. Traditionally, numerical difference method was used to solve fluid problems. The coupled fluid-solid equation could not be set up based on the method. It is no t until finite element method was used in fluid dynamics area then can the coupl ed dynamics be researched. Recently many experimental, analytical and numerical studies have been used in the area . But in these investigations, it is a ssumed that the solid vibration could not be influenced by fluid. In the other w ords, the force exerted on solid from fluid was neglected in the papers. So, the models built were some kinds of semi-coupled model only. In this paper, the Galerkin finite-element method, two-dimension vibration equ ation of rigid body and Navier-Stokes equations are used to build a full-coupl ed fluid-solid model in rotor-bearing system. Some assumptions are taken: 1) In fluid equation, the nonlinear terms are relatively small and neglected. 2) The gravity takes no effect on this system. 3) The bearing and the rotor are long. Flow and leakage along the axis is neglec ted. 4) The fluid is a kind of Newtonian incondensable viscous fluid. 5) The rotor is considered to be a rigid body. Using the model established, we calculated all the examples given by paper , results show the error are less than 7%. So the full-coupled model is built c orrectly. Examples are given in the end of the paper. After analyzing the examples, we get some conclusions: 1) In rotor-bearing system, while being taken under two conditions that whether coupled method is taken or not, difference of pressure and vibration amplitude could reach 76% and 120%. Therefore coupled method must be taken to investigate fluid-solid system. 1) Amplitude of fluid pressure can be more or less influenced by rotor unbalance , gap, eccentricity and other factors. 2) By using coupling method, results show that the amplitudes of vibration and p ressure are greater than ignoring the method. It should be paid more attention t o.展开更多

文摘Mechanical properties and microstructures of Al-Li-Cu-Mg-Ag alloy after solution treatments were investigated by means of optical microscopy （OM）, tensile test, hardness measurement and electrical conductivity test, differential scanning calorimetric （DSC）, energy dispersive X-ray （EDX）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and transition electron microscopy （TEM）, respectively The results show that both tensile strength and hardness increase first and then decrease with temperature at constant holding time of 30 min with maximum strength and hardness appearing at 520 ℃. Tensile strength, hardness and elongation of samples treated at 520 ℃ for 30 min are 566 MPa （σb）, 512 MPa （σ0.2）, HB 148 and 8.23% （δ）, respectively. There are certain amount of fine T1 （AI2CuLi） phase dispersing among AI substrates according to TEM images. This may result in mixed fracture morphology with trans-granular and inter-granular delamination cracks observed in SEM images.

文摘The phenomenon of preferential solution flow during dump leaching of low-grade ores was studied.The formative mechanism of preferential solution flow was investigated through analyzing the relationship between permeability and ore diameter,and the relationship between surface tension and ore diameter.The preferential solution flow happened within the fine ore area when the dump was unsaturated.And it could happen within the coarse ore area when the dump became saturated.The results of experiment show that the outflow of coarse ore area increases sharply with higher applied rate.The outflow of fine ore area is greater than that of coarse ore area when the applied rate is below 3.2 L/min,and the preferential solution flow happens in fine ore area.But the preferential solution flow happens in coarse ore area when the applied rate is higher than 3.2 L/min.The result of the experiment is consistent with the mechanism analyzing.

文摘Ab initio calculations are used to understand the fundamental mechanism of the solid solution softening/hardening of the Mo-binary system.The results reveal that the Mo-Ti,Mo-Ta,Mo-Nb,and Mo-W interactions are primarily attractive with negative heats of formation,while the interactions of Mo-Re,and Mo-Zr would be mainly repulsive with positive heats of formation.It is also shown that the addition of Re and Zr would cause the solid solution softening of Mo by the decrease of the unstable stacking fault energy and the increase of ductility.On the contrary,the elements of W,Ta,Ti,and Nb could bring about the solid-solution hardening of Mo through the impediment of the slip of the dislocation and the decrease of ductility.Electronic structures indicate that the weaker/stronger chemical bonding due to the alloying elements should fundamentally induce the solid solution softening/hardening of Mo.The results are discussed and compared with available evidence in literatures,which could deepen the fundamental understanding of the solid solution softening/hardening of the binary metallic system.

文摘Based on the hazard development mechanism, a water solution area is closely related to the supporting effect of pressure-bearing water, the relaxing and collapsing effect of orebody interlayer, the collapsing effect of thawless material in orebody, filling effect caused by cubical expansibility of hydrate crystallization and uplifting effect of hard rock layer over cranny belt. The movement and deformation of ground surface caused by underground water solution mining is believed to be much weaker than that caused by well lane mining, which can be predicted by the stochastic medium theory method. On the basis of analysis on the engineering practice of water solution mining, its corresponding parameters can be obtained from the in-site data of the belt water and sand filling mining in engineering analog approach.

文摘V-5Cr-5Ti alloys have been fabricated using a laser melting deposition(LMD)additive manufacturing process,showing precipitates aggregated near the grain/dendrite boundaries.Since the mechanical properties of vanadium alloys considerably depend on the precipitates,solution and aging treatments have been applied to eliminating the aggregations of the precipitates.The results show that as the solution temperature increases from 800 to 1560℃,the densities and the lengths of the precipitates are reduced,while the widths of the precipitates are increased.When the solution temperature reaches 1560℃,most impurity elements diffuse into the matrix and form into a nearly uniform supersaturated solid solution.Aging treatments have been applied to the 1560℃solution treated samples.It shows that as the aging temperature increases from 800 to 1200℃,the precipitate length increases,and the shapes of precipitates change from near-spherical to lath-like.Compared to 800 and 1200℃,aging at 1000℃results in the highest precipitate density.Compared to the LMD and solution-treated samples,the aged samples have the highest micro-hardness,due to the precipitation strengthening.

文摘The effects of pyrolysis mode and pyrolysis parameters on Cl content in alumina were investigated, and the alumina products were characterized by XRD, SEM and ASAP. The experimental results indicate that the spray pyrolysis efficiency is higher than that of static pyrolysis process, and the reaction and evaporation process lead to a multi-plot state of the alumina products by spray pyrolysis. Aluminum phase starts to transform into γ-Al2O3 at spray pyrolysis temperature of 600 °C, which is about 200 °C lower than that of static pyrolysis process. The primary particle size of γ-Al2O3 product is 27.62 nm, and Cl content in alumina products is 0.38% at 800 °C for 20 min.

文摘The effects of solution treatment temperature and holding time on the microstructure and mechanical properties of extruded Al-6.02 wt.%Zn-1.94 wt.%Mg alloy were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry(DSC),optical microscopy(OM), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), X-ray diffraction(XRD), and tensile test. The results showed that the optimum solution treatment process for the alloy was 470 ℃, 2 h. The tensile strength, yield strength,and elongation of the samples after the aging treatment at 120℃ for 24 h were 486 MPa, 431 MPa, and 14.8%,respectively. The alloy produced more copious recrystallization with the augment of solution temperature and the extension of holding time. While the second phase of η(MgZn_(2)), and T(AlZnMgCu) in the matrix was not fully re-dissolved under the treatment condition of lower temperature or shorter holding time. Interestingly, the Zr aggregation was observed in the samples treated at 510 ℃ for 2 h, which led to the growth of the second phase particles and the increase of their area fraction.

文摘The dissolution mechanism of hemimorphite in NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O system at 298.15 K was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy （FTIR） and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy （XPS） analysis. The results show that hemimorphite is soluble in NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O system and its residue exists in the form of an amorphous SiO2 layer on the hemimorphite surface. The XPS data also indicate that the Si 2p3/2 and O ls spectra of the hemimorphite are broadened and shift to higher binding energies and their binding energies are closer to silica with an increase of total ammonia and time. Solubility of hemimorphite in NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O system was measured by means of isothermal solution method at 298.15 K based on the study of the dissolution mechanism of hemimorphite. The results show that the solubility of zinc in solution increases firstly and then decreases with the increase of cr（NH3） （total ammonia concentration） at different NH3/NH4^＋ ratios. The solubility of silicon in solution decreases from 0.0334 mol/kg in ct（NH3）-4.1245 mol/kg NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O solution to 0.0046 mol/kg in cT（NH3）=7.6035 mol/kg NH3-（NH4）2SO4-H2O solution.
文摘In-situ obserVation technique has been used to study the growth of fractals,dendrites and faceted crystals in a isothermal thin aqueous soiution film system of Ba(NO),micromorphology of fractals as well as a"phase diagram"showing the dependence of the pattern formation on the growth conditions have been investigated.
文摘The solution diffusion coefficient is a great important intrinsical parameter in crystal growth.On earth,it is impossible to accurately determine the diffusion coefficient since there is nature convection.One of the marked charateristics of space-crystal growth is to eleminate nature convection,so that purely diffusion-controlled condition of crystal growth could be realized and precise measurement of the diffusion coefficient should be approved.
文摘Fluid-solid interaction problems have been studied q uite extensively in the past years. Rotor-bearing system is a typical example. Fluid field is changed under the exciting of rotor vibration. On the same ti me, a net force caused by fluid pressure exerts on rotor, which will change roto r vibration. So, the fluid-solid coupled analysis method must be used. Traditionally, numerical difference method was used to solve fluid problems. The coupled fluid-solid equation could not be set up based on the method. It is no t until finite element method was used in fluid dynamics area then can the coupl ed dynamics be researched. Recently many experimental, analytical and numerical studies have been used in the area . But in these investigations, it is a ssumed that the solid vibration could not be influenced by fluid. In the other w ords, the force exerted on solid from fluid was neglected in the papers. So, the models built were some kinds of semi-coupled model only. In this paper, the Galerkin finite-element method, two-dimension vibration equ ation of rigid body and Navier-Stokes equations are used to build a full-coupl ed fluid-solid model in rotor-bearing system. Some assumptions are taken: 1) In fluid equation, the nonlinear terms are relatively small and neglected. 2) The gravity takes no effect on this system. 3) The bearing and the rotor are long. Flow and leakage along the axis is neglec ted. 4) The fluid is a kind of Newtonian incondensable viscous fluid. 5) The rotor is considered to be a rigid body. Using the model established, we calculated all the examples given by paper , results show the error are less than 7%. So the full-coupled model is built c orrectly. Examples are given in the end of the paper. After analyzing the examples, we get some conclusions: 1) In rotor-bearing system, while being taken under two conditions that whether coupled method is taken or not, difference of pressure and vibration amplitude could reach 76% and 120%. Therefore coupled method must be taken to investigate fluid-solid system. 1) Amplitude of fluid pressure can be more or less influenced by rotor unbalance , gap, eccentricity and other factors. 2) By using coupling method, results show that the amplitudes of vibration and p ressure are greater than ignoring the method. It should be paid more attention t o.

文摘Anodic polarization behavior of gold, silver, copper, nickel and iron in potentiostatic condition has been examined in an alkaline aqueous thiourea solution, where gold is hardly dissoluble normally. The addition of Na2SO3 into the solution can accelerate anodic dissolution of gold. The factors affecting selective dissolution of gold in the alkaline thiourea solution by electrolysis have been studied, and the optimum condition was obtained. In 0.1 mol/L thiourea solution of pH 12. 5 containing 0. 5 mol/L Na2SO3 and 2. 5% acetone, at the potential of 0. 34 V vs NHE, at the temperature of 323 K, the dissolved mass of gold anode with the exposed area of 1. 0 cm2 reached more than 300 mg·dm-3 within 30 min, and other metals such as silver, copper, nickel and iron could hardly dissolve.
