Perda de carga em reduções concêntricas de PVC

In the pumping pipelines the located load losses are very important since they have direct influence on hydraulic design of an irrigation system, especially regarding the concentric reducers used in the distribution lines. Hence this work was conducted in the Laboratório de Hidráulica do Centro Federal de Educação Tecnológica de Uberaba. We analyzed 03 concentric reducers PVC 75 x 50 mm, 50 mm and 35 x 35 x 1 "operating at different flow rates. The performance of the tests with the variation of flow in every situation possible to obtain equations to estimate the loss. The equation models presented a high setting, thus enabling the determination of the localized head loss in a situation closer to field reality. For the reduction of 75 x 50 x 35 mm and 50 mm at a flow rate 16.97 m³ h-1 the pressure drop reduction was obtained respectively 0.9263 and 2.7408 mca. To the reduction of 35 x 1 "at a flow rate of 6.02 m³ h-1 was obtained 2.9304 mca pressure drop reduction. The located losses produced by these reductions are relatively high and should be considered with great discretion in hydraulic design of the irrigation system.

Comportamento em desgaste por erosão cavitação, erosão - corrosão e em ensaios de microesclerometria linear instrumentada de um aço inoxidável martensítico AISI 410 nitretado a plasma em baixa temperatura, utilizando a tecnologia de tela ativa.

Amostras de um aço inoxidável martensítico AISI 410 temperado e revenido foram nitretadas a plasma em baixa temperatura usando o tratamento de nitretação plasma DC e a nitretação a plasma com tela ativa. Ambos os tratamentos foram realizados a 400 °C, utilizando mistura gasosa de 75 % de nitrogênio e 25 % de hidrogênio durante 20 horas e 400 Pa de pressão. As amostras de aço AISI 410 temperado e revenido foram caracterizadas antes e depois dos tratamentos termoquímicos, usando as técnicas de microscopia óptica, microscopia eletrônica de varredura, medidas de microdureza, difração de raios X e medidas de teor de nitrogênio em função da distância à superfície por espectrometria WDSX de raios X. A resistência à erosão por cavitação do aço AISI 410 nitretado DC e com tela ativa foi avaliada segundo a norma ASTM G32 (1998). Os ensaios de erosão, de erosão - corrosão e de esclerometria linear instrumentada segundo norma ASTM C1624 (2005) somente foram realizados no aço AISI 410 nitretado com tela ativa. Ensaios de nanoindentação instrumentada forma utilizados para medir a dureza (H) e o módulo de elasticidade reduzido (E*) e calcular as relações H/E* e H3/E*2 e a recuperação elástica (We), utilizando o método proposto por Oliver e Pharr. Ambos os tratamentos produziram camadas nitretadas de espessura homogênea constituídas por martensita expandida supersaturada em nitrogênio e nitretos de ferro com durezas superiores a 1200 HV, porém, a nitretação DC produziu maior quantidade de nitretos de ferro do que o tratamento de tela ativa. Os resultados de erosão por cavitação do aço nitretado DC mostraram que a precipitação de nitretos de ferro é prejudicial para a resistência à cavitação já que reduziu drasticamente o período de incubação e aumentou a taxa de perda de massa nos estágios iniciais do ensaio; entretanto, depois da remoção desses nitretos de ferro, a camada nitretada formada somente por martensita expandida resistiu bem ao dano por cavitação. Já no caso do aço nitretado com tela ativa, a resistência à erosão por cavitação aumentou 27 vezes quando comparada com o aço AISI 410 sem nitretar, fato atribuído à pequena fração volumétrica e ao menor tamanho dos nitretos de ferro presente na camada nitretada, às maiores relações H/E* e H3/E*2 e à alta recuperação elástica da martensita expandida. A remoção de massa ocorreu, principalmente, pela formação de crateras e de destacamento de material da superfície dos grãos por fratura frágil sem evidente deformação plástica. As perdas de massa acumulada mostradas pelo aço nitretado foram menores do que aquelas do aço AISI 410 nos ensaios de erosão e de erosão corrosão. O aço nitretado apresentou uma diminuição nas taxas de desgaste em ambos os ensaios de aproximadamente 50 % quando comparadas com o aço AISI 410. O mecanismo de remoção de material foi predominantemente dúctil, mesmo com o grande aumento na dureza. Os resultados de esclerometria linear instrumentada mostraram que a formação de martensita expandida possibilitou uma diminuição considerável do coeficiente de atrito em relação ao observado no caso do aço AISI 410 sem nitretar. O valor de carga crítica de falha foi de 14 N. O mecanismo de falha operante no aço nitretado foi trincamento por tensão.

Estudo da previsão da carga de ruptura de estacas pré-moldadas de concreto

The piles are one of the most important types of solution adopted for the foundation of buildings. They are responsible for transmitting to the soil in deepe r and resistant layers loads from structures. The interaction of the foundation element with the soil is a very important variable, making indispensable your domain in order to determine the strength of the assembly and establish design criteria for each c ase of application of the pile. In this research analyzes were performed f rom experiments load tests for precast concrete piles and inve stigations of soil of type SPT, a study was performed for obtaining the ultimate load capacity of the foundation through methods extrapolation of load - settlement curve , semi - empirical and theoretic . After that, were realized comparisons between the different methods used for two types of soil a granular behavior and other cohesive. For obtaining soil paramet ers to be used i n the methods were established empirical correlations with the standard penetration number (NSPT). The charge - settlement curves of the piles are also analyzed. In the face of established comparisons was indicated the most reliable semiempirical method Déco urt - Quaresma as the most reliable for estimating the tensile strength for granular and cohesive soils. Meanwhile, among the methods studied extrapolation is recommended method of Van der Veen as the most appropriate for predicting the tensile strength.

Capacidade de carga de misturas de solo laterítico e desbastes de pneus

Government efforts have found some obstacles in achieving a better infrastructure regarding environmental preservation requirements. There is a need to develop new techniques that leave the big exploitation of environmental resources. This study measures the evaluation of the behavior of a composite formed by lateritic soil mix and tire buffings. In this way, a road embankment model was developed to assess the bearing capacity of the composite. This study measured the load capacity of the composites with 0%, 10%, 20% and 40% rubber mixed with the soil, by weight, iron plate loading tests on a simulated embankment in a metal box of 1.40 x 1.40 x 0.80 m. After four compaction layers of the composite, a plate test was performed, and then stress-settlement curves were obtained for the material. The embankments with 20% and 40% rubber content was difficult to compact. There was a significant reduction in the load capacity of the soil-plate system with increasing rubber content. The composite with the lowest loss of bearing capacity in relation to the reference soil was the one with a χ = 10%. In the load capacity tests, another aspect noted was the bearing capacity in terms of CBR. The results also show a gradual decrease in bearing capacity in the composites as with the rubber incorporation content increases. As in the plate load tests, the composite that had the lower bearing capacity loss was also that with 10% content.

This work aims to study and investigate the use of a hybrid composite polymer formed with blanket aramid (Kevlar 29) fiber blanket flax fiber and particulate dry endocarp of coconut (Cocos nucifera Linn), using as matrix an epoxy resin based thermoset for use in areas of protective equipment. Besides such material is used an aluminum plate, joined to the composite by means of glue based on epoxy and araldite commercial. The manufacturing process adopted was manual lamination (Hand Lay Up) to manufacture the hybrid composite. After the composite is prepared, an aluminum plate is subjected to pressure and glued to cure the adhesive. Layers of veil will also be used to separate the particulate from the linen blanket layer without disturbing the alignment of the fibers of the blankets. To characterize the mechanical and physical behavior was manufactured a plate of 800 x 600 mm of the hybrid composite, which were removed specimens for tests of water absorption to saturation; density; impact test (Charpy) and two test specimens for ballistic testing 220 mm x 200 mm to make a comparative study between the dry state and saturated water absorption and thus see the ballistic performance of these two conditions. The test was applied to make a comparative study of fracture in these two conditions, caused by penetrating ballistic missile (38 and 380). To test the impact (Charpy) will analyze the absorbed energy, fracture appearance and lateral contraction, also in dry condition and saturation of absorbed water, thereby analyzing situations where the impact load is relevant, such as bumps and shocks produced by stone, metal or wooden bars among others. The proposed configuration, along with the tests, has the purpose, application in the fields of equipment against ballistic impact, such as helmets; bullet proof vests; shields; protective packaging and other items to be identified in this research.

Efeito da adição de cinza da casca de arroz em misturas cimento-casca de arroz

The rice husk and its ash are abundant and renewable and can be used to obtain alternative building materials. An increase in the consumption of such waste could help minimize the environmental problems from their improper disposal. This study aimed to evaluate the use of ashes as a cargo mineral (filler). However, the rice husk chemically interferes in the conduct of the based cement mixtures. Thus, different mixes cement-rice husk with and without the addition of ash were evaluated in order to highlight the influence of its components (husk; ash), which could otherwise be excluded or be underestimated. Cylindrical samples (test of simple compression and traction by diametrical compression) and samples extracted from manufactured pressed board (test of bending and parallel compression to the surface), were used to evaluate the behavior of different mixtures of components (rice hush; RHA - rice husk ahs). The results of the mechanical tests showed, in general, there is not a statistical difference between the mixtures, which are associated with the chemical suppressive effect of the rice husk ash. The mixture of rice husk of 10 mm, with an addition of 35% of the rice husk ash, is notable for allowing the highest consumption of rice husk and rice husk ash, to reduce 25% the consumption of cement and to allow the storage (without emissions to the atmosphere), around 1.9 ton of CO2 per ton of cement consumed, thus contributing to the reduction of CO2 emissions, which can stimulate rural constructions under an ecological point of view.

Adequação de engates rápidos de aspersores como conectores de mangueira para distribuição de água em sulcos de irrigação

As a way to reduce water losses in furrow irrigation systems, used in fresh market tomato production, farmers are improperly distributing water into the field using plastic hose. The objective of this work was to study the suitability of using quick coupler sprinkler as hose connectors for water distribution in tomato plantation. The first step of the study was to assess the current hose field operation for tomato growers. Subsequently, four models of quick couplers sprinklers available in the market were tested in laboratory to determine the coefficient of resistance, the equivalent tube length, the head loss curve and the linking efficiency. As result, a structural design for hose connectors was presented using the model of coupling with the best hydraulic performance. Additionally, some technical recommendations on its use in irrigation water distribution are highlighted. Despite the requirement for additional field trials, the proposed system has potential to optimize the water use efficiency, to improve workers ergonomic conditions, and ensure good profitability to the producer.

Atributos mecânicos e erosão por salpicamento em amostras de latossolo vermelho-amarelo sob efeito de vinhaça

The objective of this study was to quantify the effect of plonk on compressive behavior and mechanical attributes such as consistency, optimum moisture for compaction and maximum density of a Red-Yellow Latosol (Oxisol) to evaluate the effect of plonk and compaction state in splashed particles, from Lavras (MG) region. The plonk was obtained from an artisanal sugarcane brandy alembic. Undisturbed and disturbed soil samples were collected at 0 to 3 cm and 60 to 63 cm depths. Disturbed soil samples were used for soil characterization, determination of consistence limits and Normal Proctor essay after material incubation with plonk. Undisturbed soil samples were saturated with plonk or distilled water (control) during 48 hours for testing the compressibility and resistance to splash by using simulated rainfall. The plonk altered the consistence limits of studied layers. For the 0-3 cm layer, the plonk reduced the friable range, and for the 60-63 cm layer the effect was in the opposite direction. For both layers, the plonk increased Dmax and decreased Uoptimum. Regardless of the plonk treatment, both layers presented the same load support capacity. The compaction degree of samples influenced the splash erosion. The increase of the applied pressure over the samples resulted in increase of splash material quantity. At the 60-63 cm layer, the plonk treatment reduced the splash material quantity by increasing the applied pressure, mainly when the samples were at field capacity.
