Microwave heating as a tool for coupling Marangoni and Hickman instabilities
2007
The aim of this paper is the linear stability analysis of an evaporating interface in order to justify hydrodynamic behaviors observed during evaporation of water and ethanol simultaneously under microwave irradiation and reduced pressure. In relation to the local character of the thermal conversion of electromagnetic energy, and of the thermal dependency of the dielectric loss, it seems possible under microwave heating to induce a specific hydrodynamic compared to those induced by conventional heating.
Studies on Instabilities and Patterns in Evaporating Liquids at Reduced Pressure and/or Microwave Irradiation
1990
This paper summarizes our recent experimental and theoretical work on the instabilities in liquids and at interfaces which form during evaporation at reduced pressure and/or microwave irradiation. We have observed a variety of patterns (Benard rolls, Marangoni waves, Hickman interface deformations) which depend on the value of the reduced pressure and the power of the incident beam.
Augmentation of weld penetration by flux assisted TIG welding and its distinct variants for oxygen free copper
2021
Abstract A comparative study to investigate the influences of single component fluxes on the depth-to-width ratio (DWR) of oxygen free copper was carried out with novel variants of tungsten inert gas (TIG) welding namely Activated TIG (A-TIG), Flux Bounded TIG (FB-TIG) and Flux Zoned TIG (FB-TIG) processes. The experiments to identify the fluxes delivering the higher DWRs in A-TIG welding among thirteen distinct fluxes were followed by the trials with FB-TIG and FZ-TIG employing those identified DWR fluxes. The fluxes which outperformed with all the techniques were MoO3 & MgO. Reversed Marangoni and arc constriction mechanisms were perceived to be opt for such an increase in DWR. Metallurgi…
