1. 1. Effect of temperature on early stage adhesion during TiAlN sliding against Inconel 718 and Stainless steel 316L : High temperature tribology

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Ahsan Ali; [2023]
   Keywords : High temperature tribology; Early-stage adhesion; Adhesive wear; Friction; Wear resistant coatings; Physical vapour deposition PVD coatings; TiAlN; Tungsten carbide WC Co ; Difficult to machine super alloys; Inconel 718; Stainless steel 316L; High-performance materials; Abrasion; Oxidation; Chipping; Ploughing; Characterization;

   Abstract : High-performance materials such as stainless steels and nickel based super alloys are widely used in demanding applications where high mechanical and thermal properties are required. The applications of super alloys are mainly found in jet engines, power plants and gas turbines demanding high fatigue strength, corrosion and oxidation resistance as well as wear resistant properties.

3. 2. High Temperature Tribology of Exhaust Components in Alternative Fuel Engines

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

   Author : Muhammad Hashir Zaheer; [2023]
   Keywords : High temperature tribology; Wear; Friction; Exhaust manifold; Lip seal ring; Wear resistant coatings; Inconel 718c; SiMo51 ductile cast iron; AlTiN; Tribaloy 400;

   Abstract : Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) exhaust components are exposed to extreme operating temperatures. Thus, it is necessary that they are designed with materials that can sustain thermal and vibrational stresses. READ MORE

4. 3. Improved Modelling For Oxidation Of Zircalloy Fuel Cladding Tubes In PWRs

   University essay from KTH/Fysik

   Author : Rafaël Bellachia; [2023]
   Keywords : Nuclear Engineering; Corrosion; Zircalloy; PWR; Nuclear Fuel; Kärnteknik; Korrosion; Zircalloy; PWR; Kärnbränsle;

   Abstract : The fuel cladding is an essential component in the defence-in-depth strategy for nuclear safety. Its integrity and durability are therefore critical for maintaining acceptable safety conditions. However, the integrity of the cladding can be compromised during normal operation due to corrosion and hydriding. READ MORE

5. 4. Deep Neural Networks as SurrogateModels for Fuel Performance Codes

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Tillämpad kärnfysik

   Author : Wenhan Zhou; [2023]
   Keywords : Transuranus; AI; Nuclear Fuel Rods;

   Abstract : The core component of a nuclear power plant is the reactor and the fuel rods that supply it with fission fuel. Efficient and safe energy extraction is thus highly dependent on the reactor design and the conditions of the fuel rods. To anticipate high-quality operation and potential risks in advance, one must perform simulations on the fuel rods. READ MORE

6. 5. Microstructural design and optimization of Nickel-based superalloys for gas turbines

   University essay from KTH/Materialvetenskap

   Author : Anirudh Vasishta; [2023]
   Keywords : Nickel- based superalloys; gamma prime γ′ size calculations; Nickelbaserade superlegeringar; gamma prime γ′ storleksberäkningar;

   Abstract : One of the main sources of energy in this modern world is the gas turbine.  They reach extremely high working temperatures at peak capacity and hence require materials that can withstand the same. READ MORE
