The Heat-Treating Processes Step 5: Cryogenics
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Cryogenics is the continuation of heat treatment and is the last step that completes the thermal treatment processing of metals. After ferrous steel part/s are heat-treated and tempered, the part’s grain structure can be improved by subjecting the part to a deep cryogenic temperature (–320 °F) soak. The process involves taking the parts down from room temperature to –70 °F to –100 °F using dry nitrogen gas.

Evaluation of cryogenics-based energy storage concepts
The goal of this paper is to evaluate cryogenics-based energy storage concepts: A thermo-electric energy storage unit, which uses surplus electricity while liquefying a gas, subsequently stored at cryogenic temperature. Here we review and evaluate concepts for power generation while regasifying the liquefied gas (cryogen) using an exergetic analysis. Two cold exergy recovery cycle configuration...

The purpose of present study is to investigate the dynamic response of two conventional types of solid oxide fuel cells to the inlet air mass flow rate variation. A dynamic compartmental model based on CFD principles is developed for two typical planar and tubular SOFC designs. The model accounts for transport processes (heat and mass transfer), diffusion processes, electrochemical processes, a...

The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), a 26.7 km circumference superconducting accelerator equipped with high-field magnets operating in superfluid helium below 1.9 K, has now fully entered construction at CERN, the European Laboratory for Particle Physics. The heart of the LHC cryogenic system is the quasi-isothermal magnet cooling scheme, in which flowing two-phase saturated superfluid helium remov...
متن کاملInvestigation of Hardness and Impact Toughness of Zr-Microalloyed Cast Steel
Microalloyed cast steels are a group of microalloyed steels in which reliable mechanical properties could be achieved by heat treatment. In this work, the heat treatment processes were carried out on the cast specimens as the step samples by different thicknesses and Zr content. The results show that after homogenization, variations in thickness have no effect on the hardness. Also, after hea...
