TEAMER: Sandia and CalWave Torque Spring Assessment

Power-take-off (PTO) systems for wave energy converters (WEC) require restoring forces for efficient hydrodynamic as well as mechanical to electric power transfer. Implementation of an effective spring mechanism that can provide a restoring torque on e.g. a rotational, winch type PTO shaft is challenging. SNL in collaboration with CalWave, will use numerical finite element simulations to study application of mechanical torsion springs as a highly efficient restoring force element for CalWave's rotational PTO. Material studies will include common steel as a baseline and potentially advanced materials such as fiber composite materials with different cross-sectional profiles. Test report including description and results of FEA (finite element analysis) models. Excel sheet summarizes which scripts were used for which tables and figures in the report. Part of TEAMER request for technical support (RFTS 1) award to CalWave and Sandia National Lab (SNL).

Synthesis and behavior of bulk iron nitride soft magnets via high-pressure spark plasma sintering

Abstract In this study, dense bulk iron nitrides (Fe x N) were synthesized for the first time ever using spark plasma sintering (SPS) of Fe x N powders. The Fe 4 N phase of iron nitride in particular has significant potential to serve as a new soft magnetic material in both transformer and inductor cores and electrical machines. The density of SPSed Fe x N increased with SPS temperature and pressure. The microstructure of the consolidated bulk Fe x N was characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometry. XRD revealed a primary phase of Fe 4 N with secondary phases of Fe 3 N and metallic iron. Finite element analysis (FEA) was also applied to investigate and explain localized heating and temperature distribution during SPS. The effects of processing on interface bonding formation and phase evolution were investigated and discussed in detail to provide insight into fundamental phenomena and microstructural evolution in SPSed Fe x N.

Statistical methods for design and testing of 3D-printed polymers

Different statistical methods are used in various fields to qualify processes and products, especially in emerging technologies like Additive Manufacturing (AM) or 3D printing. Since several statistical methods are being employed to ensure quality production of the 3D-printed parts, an overview of these methods used in 3D printing for different purposes is presented in this paper. The advantages and challenges, to understanding the importance it brings for design and testing optimization of 3D-printed parts are also discussed. The application of different metrology methods is also summarized to guide future researchers in producing dimensionally-accurate and good-quality 3D-printed parts. Here, this review paper shows that the Taguchi Methodology is the commonly-used statistical tool in optimizing mechanical properties of the 3D-printed parts, followed by Weibull Analysis and Factorial Design. In addition, key areas such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and Simulation require more research for improved 3D-printed part qualities for specific purposes. Future perspectives are also discussed, including other methods that can help further improve the overall quality of the 3D printing process from designing to manufacturing.

On the 3D printability of one-part moisture-curable polyurethanes via direct ink writing (DIW)

Direct ink writing (DIW) is an ambient temperature additive manufacturing (AM) method that accommodates many possible ink materials. Here, in this work, we demonstrate using a moisture-curable commercially available polyurethane (PU) sealant as an alternative ink for DIW. We discussed the fundamentals of PU chemistry and determined the best 3D printing parameters. Studies on rheological, thermogravimetric, spectroscopic characterization, and initial finite element analyses (FEA) showed properties expected from a performance sealant with high elongation and low modulus of a 3D-printed object. This affirms the flexibility of the DIW technique as an accessible AM method amenable for future materials development from commercial model formulations.

High flux boiling heat transfer enhancement using triangle shaped vertical walls in two-phase microchannel heat exchangers

Two-phase heat exchangers allow heat loads to be dissipated with lower fluid flow rates without inducing thermal gradients, and high surface area microchannels further reduce the thermal resistance of these heat exchangers. However, there are many practical limits that prevent widespread use of two-phase microchannel heat exchangers. Many authors have looked to address these practical limits by treating the channel floors or creating artificial nucleation sites. Few works look to enhance heat transfer in the walls of channels with hydraulic diameters below 200 μm. This work is aimed at increasing the efficacy of high aspect ratio silicon microchannels that use R134a as the working fluid. The 125 parallel channels are 40 μm wide, 200 μm deep, and 2 mm long and contain a 15 μm wide, 150 μm long restriction at each inlet. The thermal resistance and dryout characteristics of traditional, plain-walled channels are compared to channels with 2 area enhancement patterns each of which increases the area available for heat transfer by 41%. Furthermore, a resistance to dryout is seen in both area-enhanced test sections, and a 15.5% reduction in thermal resistance is shown for the area-enhanced part with a 6 μm triangular pitch. Only a 7.8% performance increase is seen in the test section with a 3 μm pitch. Both area enhancement patterns induce an average 27% increase in pressure drop for all tests. Heat transfer characteristics are solved for using a finite element analysis (FEA) model. By examining heat transfer coefficients and local heat fluxes, it is postulated that the area enhancement reduces heat transfer coefficients and the performance increase is caused by increasing the number of active nucleation sites.
