Functionally graded materials (FGMs) exhibit good performance owing to their gradual and directional property compositional changes occurring in the material. Field-assisted sintering is one method fabricate FGMs by utilizing a heating geometry that provides temperature gradient within sample. Here, ultra-large gradients proposed. Using finite element analyses, geometrical parameters of proposed design were optimized through systematic parametric investigation. The resulting evaluated for...
The temperature-dependent effective thermal conductivity of UN-X-UO2 (X = Mo, W) nuclear fuel composite was estimated. Following the experimental design, calculated using Finite Element Modeling (FEM), and compared with analytical models for 10%, 30%, 50%, 70% (in mass) uncoated/coated UN microspheres in a UO2 matrix. FEM results show an increase as mass fraction increases – from 1.2 to 4.6 times reference at 2000 K. agree estimated by FEM. also that Mo W coatings have similar behaviors,...
The irradiation resistance of tungsten (W) and a high-entropy alloy-based material W0.5(TaTiVCr)0.5 was analysed using depth marker implantation (F3+ ions irradiation). Mirror-polished W samples were exposed to 5.0 MeV 4.2 MeV, respectively, F3+ up maximum fluence 3.2x1012 ions/cm2. scanning electron atomic force microscopy implanted showed nanostructured features pinholes, whereas the surface remained fairly smooth. nanoindentation hardness increased from 6.6 GPa 8.5 13.9 16.3 GPa, due...
