Untersuchung zur Reduzierung des Verzugs durch Vorwärmung bei der Herstellung von Aluminiumbauteilen mittels SLM

Das generative Fertigungsverfahren Selective Laser Melting (SLM) wird zur direkten Herstellung von metallischen Funktionsbauteilen verwendet. Während des Bauprozesses entstehen durch den schichtweisen Aufbau und die lokale Energieeinbringung mittels eines fokussierten Laserstrahls thermisch induzierte Eigenspannungen, die zu Verzug des Bauteils oder von Bauteilbereichen führen können. Üblicherweise werden die Verzüge durch Stützstrukturen zwischen Bauteil und Substratplatte verhindert. Jedoch ist es nicht immer möglich alle Bereiche eines Bauteils, je nach Komplexität der Geometrie oder Zugänglichkeit, mit Stützstrukturen zu versehen bzw. diese wieder zu entfernen. Durch eine Vorwärmung der Substratplatte während des Bauprozesses können die Verzüge reduziert oder ganz vermieden werden. Jedoch ist bisher keine systematische Untersuchung des Einflusses der Vorwärmung auf Verzüge von Aluminium Bauteilen durchgeführt worden. Ziel dieser Arbeiten ist daher die systematische Untersuchung der Auswirkung einer Vorwärmung beim SLM von Aluminiumbauteilen und die Ermittlung der geeigneten Vorwärmtemperatur, bei der nahezu keine Verzüge mehr entstehen. Eine signifikante Verzugsreduzierung im Vergleich zu den Verzügen ohne Vorwärmung zeigt sich ab einer Vorwärmtemperatur von 150°C. Bei einer Vorwärmtemperatur von 250°C sind im Rahmen der Messgenauigkeit unabhängig von der untersuchten Twincantilever Testgeometrie keine Verzüge mehr feststellbar. Neben der Reduzierung der Verzüge verhindert die Vorwärmung außerdem spannungsbedingte Risse im Bauteil, die ohne Vorwärmung zum Abreißen von Teilen der Testgeometrie führen können. Mit 90 HV 0,1 bei 250°C Vorwärmtemperatur ist die Härte größer als die geforderte Mindesthärte nach DIN EN 1706 von Druckgussbauteilen aus dem Werkstoff AlSi10Mg. Aus diesem Ergebnis kann abgeleitet werden, dass eine Vorwärmtemperatur von 250°C geeignet ist, Bauteile aus dem Werkstoff AlSi10Mg mit SLM defektfrei und prozesssicher herzustellen und Verzüge vollständig zu vermeiden.

Non-Gaussian Cosmological Perturbations from Hybrid Inflation and Preheating

This thesis consists of four research papers and an introduction providing some background. The structure in the universe is generally considered to originate from quantum fluctuations in the very early universe. The standard lore of cosmology states that the primordial perturbations are almost scale-invariant, adiabatic, and Gaussian. A snapshot of the structure from the time when the universe became transparent can be seen in the cosmic microwave background (CMB). For a long time mainly the power spectrum of the CMB temperature fluctuations has been used to obtain observational constraints, especially on deviations from scale-invariance and pure adiabacity. Non-Gaussian perturbations provide a novel and very promising way to test theoretical predictions. They probe beyond the power spectrum, or two point correlator, since non-Gaussianity involves higher order statistics. The thesis concentrates on the non-Gaussian perturbations arising in several situations involving two scalar fields, namely, hybrid inflation and various forms of preheating. First we go through some basic concepts -- such as the cosmological inflation, reheating and preheating, and the role of scalar fields during inflation -- which are necessary for the understanding of the research papers. We also review the standard linear cosmological perturbation theory. The second order perturbation theory formalism for two scalar fields is developed. We explain what is meant by non-Gaussian perturbations, and discuss some difficulties in parametrisation and observation. In particular, we concentrate on the nonlinearity parameter. The prospects of observing non-Gaussianity are briefly discussed. We apply the formalism and calculate the evolution of the second order curvature perturbation during hybrid inflation. We estimate the amount of non-Gaussianity in the model and find that there is a possibility for an observational effect. The non-Gaussianity arising in preheating is also studied. We find that the level produced by the simplest model of instant preheating is insignificant, whereas standard preheating with parametric resonance as well as tachyonic preheating are prone to easily saturate and even exceed the observational limits. We also mention other approaches to the study of primordial non-Gaussianities, which differ from the perturbation theory method chosen in the thesis work.

Preheating in quintessential inflation

We perform a numerical study of the preheating mechanism of particle production in models of quintessential inflation and compare it with the usual gravitational production mechanism. We find that even for a very small coupling between the inflaton field and a massless scalar field, g ≳ 10 -6, preheating dominates over gravitational particle production. Reheating temperatures in the range 10 4 ≲ T rh ≲ 10 15 GeV can be easily obtained. © 2003 Published by Elsevier B.V.

Effects of engine cooling water temperature on performance and exhaust emission characteristics of a multi-cylinder CI engine operated with Jatropha-Butanol blend

Renewable alternatives such as biofuels and optimisation of the engine operating parameters can enhance engine performance and reduce emissions. The temperature of the engine coolant is known to have significant influence on engine performance and emissions. Whereas much existing literature describes the effects of coolant temperature in engines using fossil derived fuels, very few studies have investigated these effects when biofuel is used as an alternative fuel. Jatropha oil is a non-edible biofuel which can substitute fossil diesel for compression ignition (CI) engine use. However, due to the high viscosity of Jatropha oil, technique such as transesterification, preheating the oil, mixing with other fuel is recommended for improved combustion and reduced emissions. In this study, Jatropha oil was blended separately with ethanol and butanol, at ratios of 80:20 and 70:30. The fuel properties of all four blends were measured and compared with diesel and jatropha oil. It was found that the 80% jatropha oil + 20% butanol blend was the most suitable alternative, as its properties were closest to that of diesel. A 2 cylinder Yanmar engine was used; the cooling water temperature was varied between 50°C and 95°C. In general, it was found that when the temperature of the cooling water was increased, the combustion process enhanced for both diesel and Jatropha-Butanol blend. The CO2 emissions for both diesel and biofuel blend were observed to increase with temperature. As a result CO, O2 and lambda values were observed to decrease when cooling water temperature increased. When the engine was operated using diesel, NOX emissions correlated in an opposite manner to smoke opacity; however, when the biofuel blend was used, NOX emissions and smoke opacity correlated in an identical manner. The brake thermal efficiencies were found to increase slightly as the temperature was increased. In contrast, for all fuels, the volumetric efficiency was observed to decrease as the coolant temperature was increased. Brake specific fuel consumption was observed to decrease as the temperature was increased and was higher on average when the biofuel was used, in comparison to diesel. The study concludes that the effects of engine coolant temperature on engine performance and emission characteristics differ between biofuel blend and fossil diesel operation. The coolant temperature needs to be optimised depending on the type of biofuel for optimum engine performance and reduced emissions.

A new low temperature synthesis route of fraipontite (Zn,Al)3(Si,Al)2O5(OH)4

A low temperature synthesis method based on the decomposition of urea at 90°C in water has been developed to synthesise fraipontite. This material is characterised by a basal reflection 001 at 7.44 Å. The trioctahedral nature of the fraipontite is shown by the presence of a 06l band around 1.54 Å, while a minor band around 1.51 Å indicates some cation ordering between Zn and Al resulting in Al-rich areas with a more dioctahedral nature. TEM and IR indicate that no separate kaolinite phase is present. An increase in the Al content however, did result in the formation of some SiO2 in the form of quartz. Minor impurities of carbonate salts were observed during the synthesis caused by to the formation of CO32- during the decomposition of urea.
