Observation and Processing of Instantaneous Frequency Variations During Bearing Tests
2020
Laboratory experiments have been performed on medium sized roller bearings with two levels of artificial damage. Recordings of long time series from accelerometers at a wide range of different radial loads and rotation speeds has been performed. Probably due to non-perfect performance of the control systems for the rotational speed or frequency, significant fluctuations were observed at all rotation speeds. The highest relative variation was observed at the lowest rotational speeds. These variations were recorded using a rotary encoder, which allows order tracking of the vibration signal. In real life condition monitoring, tachometers or rotary encoders are not always present, this can be d…
ECT of ethanol and hexane mixtures in the spinning disk system
2007
The paper presents the research results of electrostatic charging tendency (ECT) of ethanol and hexane mixtures, a liquid of a simple chemical structure and high purity (pro analysis). The research work was carried out in a spinning disk system, where the factors influencing the value of the electrification current registered were the composition of the mixture and the rotational speed of the disk. The research results showed that the biggest ECT changes occur in the range of up to 10% of ethanol content in hexane and the electrification current characteristic has a visible maximum for the mixture, the contents of which constitute 95% of hexane volume and 5% of ethanol by volume. In the nex…
On the improvement of material formability in SPIF operation through tool stirring action
2012
Single-point incremental forming (SPIF) is a quite new sheet-forming process which offers the possibility to deform complex parts without dedicated dies using a single-point tool and a standard three-axis CNC machine. The process mechanics enables higher strains with respect to traditional sheet-forming processes, but particular attention must be given to the maximum forming angle. In this paper, a new approach is proposed to enhance the material formability through a localized sheet heating as a consequence of the friction work caused by elevated tool rotational speeds. AA1050-O, AA1050-H24, and AA6082-T6 were utilized, and the reached temperatures were recorded by thermocouples, fixed to …
In-process tool rotational speed variation with constant heat input in friction stir welding of AZ31 sheets with variable thickness
2017
In the present work, friction stir welding experiments on AZ31 magnesium alloy sheets, characterized by a variable thickness along the welding line, were carried out. The approach adapted during welding consisted in maintaining constant the heat input to the joint. To this purpose, the rotational speed of the pin tool was increased with decreasing thickness and decreased with increasing thickness in order to obtain the same temperatures during welding. The amount by which the rotational speed was changed as a function of the sheet thickness was defined on the basis of the results given by FEM simulations of the FSW process. Finally, the effect of the in-process variation of the tool rotatio…
Outlining the Limits of Friction Stir Consolidation as Used as an Aluminum Alloys Recycling Approach
2021
Friction stir consolidation (FSC) is a solid-state process that recycles metal scraps economically and eco-friendly compared to the conventional melting method. The process parameters especially processing time and rotational speed, have a crucial role in achieving a sound disc during FSC. The current study answers the research question of how far these process parameters can be effective when the mass of chips to be recycled increases. In specific, an experimental setup was analyzed that was previously identified as challenging for recycling 20 g chips of aluminum alloy AA 2024-O. Rotational speed was set doubled, and processing time was increased up to 1.5 times of their initial values. T…
Molecular alignment echoes probe collision-induced rotational-speed changes
2020
International audience; We show that the decays with pressure of the rotational alignment echoes induced in N 2 O-He gas mixtures by two ultrashort laser pulses with various delays show detailed information about collision-induced changes of the rotational speed of the molecules. Measurements and classical calculations consistently demonstrate that collisions reduce the echo amplitude all the more efficiently when the echo appears late. We quantitatively explain this behavior by the filamentation of the classical rotational phase space induced by the first pulse and the narrowing of the filaments with time. The above mentioned variation of the echo decay then reflects the ability of collisi…
Performance Test of Various Teeth Diameter of Cylinder Type Sago Rasping Machine
2021
Traditional method of sago starch extraction was a time and labor intensive process. The most laborious stage is pith disintegration which is done by using hammer-like tools called pounder. However, the use of rasping machine to disintegrate the pith is saving time and energy significantly. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of teeth diameter and cylinder rotation speed on performance of cylinder type sago rasping machine. In the experiment, four variations of teeth diameter i.e. 3mm, 4 mm, 5 mm and 6 mm, and three levels of cylinder rotation speed i.e. 1500 rpm, 2000 rpm and 2500 rpm were examined. Results showed that both teeth diameter and cylinder rotation speed s…

2015
Abstract This paper presents the analysis of the first dynamic neutron radiography experiment that visualized motion of solid particles in liquid metal, which was stirred by a system of four counter-rotating magnets. The paper also contains the quantitative results derived from neutron images: the distribution of particle concentration, number of admixed particles and velocities as functions of the magnet rotation speed.
