Effiziente Erdgasbereitstellung mit erneuerbaren Energien
(2022-07)
Gas-Druckregel- und Messanlagen (GDRMA) nehmen für den Erdgastransport eine wichtige Rolle als Übergabestellen zwischen den Netzabschnitten ein. Bei der Druckreduktion kommt es infolge des Joule-Thomson-Effektes zu einer Abkühlung, wodurch die Anlagentechnik vereisen und die Gasversorgung gefährdet sein kann. Um diesen gestörten Betrieb zu vermeiden, wird das Erdgas im Vorfeld der Entspannung erwärmt. Dabei fällt der damit einhergehende Wärmebedarf auf einem für erneuerbare Energieanwendungen hervorragendem ...

District heating systems for new residential areas: On the impact of system temperatures
(2022-11)
Erneuerbare Niedertemperatur-Wärmenetzsysteme können einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Dekarbonisierung der Wärmebereitstellung dicht bebauter Wohngebiete leisten. Es ist bisher unklar, welche Auswirkungen die Wahl der Systemtemperatur, hier die mittlere Wärmenetzsystemvorlauftemperatur, auf die Erschließung neuer Wohngebiete mit Niedertemperatur-Wärmenetzsystemen hat. Ziel ist es, den Einfluss der Systemtemperatur auf die ökologische und ökonomische Effizienz von erneuerbaren Wärmenetzsystemen für neue Wohngebiete mit ...

Solar fractions of SHIP plants considering the availability of roof area based on OpenStreetMap data
(2022-02-04)
Solar heat for industrial processes (SHIP) can be a key technology to decarbonize the industrial heat demand world-wide. Several national studies use either a bottom-up or a top-down-approach to assess the potential of solar process heat using estimated fixed solar fractions. Due to limited area available for the installation of solar collectors and the reasonality of the load profile, this solar fraction cannot be achieved in all cases. To address this limitation, another estimated factor is used in those studies. ...

Ti6Al4V lattice structures manufactured by electron beam powder bed fusion - Microstructural and mechanical characterization based on advanced in situ techniques
(2022-12-17)
Powder bed fusion (PBF) processes enable the manufacturing of complex components in a time- and cost-efficient manner. Especially lattice structures are currently focused since they show varying mechanical properties, including different deformation and damage behaviors, which can be used to locally tailor the mechanical behavior. However, the present process-structure-property relationships are highly complex and have to be understood in detail in order to enable an implementation of PBF manufactured lattice structures ...

Predicting Flow Stress Behavior of an AA7075 Alloy Using Machine Learning Methods
(2022-09-09)
The present work focuses on the prediction of the hot deformation behavior of thermo-mechanically processed precipitation hardenable aluminum alloy AA7075. The data considered focus on a novel hot forming process at different tool temperatures ranging from 24°C to 350°C to set different cooling rates after solution heat-treatment. Isothermal uniaxial tensile tests in the temperature range of 200°C to 400°C and at strain rates ranging from 0.001 s-¹ to 0.1 s-¹ were carried out on four different material conditions. ...

Novel Class of Rhenium Borides Based on Hexagonal Boron Networks Interconnected by Short B₂ Dumbbells
(2022-09-06)
Transition metal borides are known due to their attractive mechanical, electronic, refractive, and other properties. A new class of rhenium borides was identified by synchrotron single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiments in laser-heated diamond anvil cells between 26 and 75 GPa. Recoverable to ambient conditions, compounds rhenium triboride (ReB₃) and rhenium tetraboride (ReB₄) consist of close-packed single layers of rhenium atoms alternating with boron networks built from puckered hexagonal layers, which link ...

A new method for microscale cyclic crack growth characterization from notched microcantilevers and application to single crystalline tungsten and a metallic glass
(2022-06-22)
The lifetime of most metals is limited by cyclic loads, ending in fatigue failure. The progressive growth of cracks ends up in catastrophic failure. An advanced method is presented for the determination of cyclic crack growth on the microscale using a nanoindenter, which allows the characterization of > 10,000 loading cycles. It uses focused ion beam fabricated notched microcantilevers. The method has been validated by cyclic bending metallic glass and tungsten microcantilevers. The experiments reveal a stable crack ...

Untersuchung von Gussporen in einer Aluminium-Gusslegierung mit der Computertomographie
(2022-04)
In dieser Arbeit wird das Schädigungsverhalten einer Aluminium-Gusslegierung anhand von zweidimensionalen und dreidimensionalen Verfahren untersucht. Dabei liegt das Hauptaugenmerk auf innenliegenden Gussdefekten wie Gas- und Schrumpfungsporen. Die Schädigungsentwicklung unter schwingender Belastung, sowie der Einfluss auf die Mikrostruktur und die mechanischen Eigenschaften sowie die Wechselwirkung verschiedener Gussdefekte werden dabei untersucht. Insbesondere wird der beim Versagensverhalten entscheidende Einfluss ...

Effect of Cell Morphology on Flexural Behavior of Injection-Molded Microcellular Polycarbonate
(2022-05-19)
The quantitative study of the structure and properties relationship in cellular materials is mostly limited to cell diameter, cell density, skin layer thickness, and cell size distribution. In addition, the investigation of the morphology is generally carried out in two dimensions. Therefore, the
interrelation between morphological properties and mechanical characteristics of the foam structure has remained in an uncertain state. In this study, during the physical foaming process, a foam morphology is locally created ...

Hydrogen absorption of ultra-high strength aluminum-silicon coated 22MnB5 steels
(2022-12-30)
The hot forming process allows to produce safety-relevant structural components in the automotive industry with strengths of 1500 MPa and higher. Generally, high strengths make material sensitive to hydrogen embrittlement. The heat treatment in the hot forming process chain is a potential source of diffusible hydrogen for hot-dipped aluminum-silicon coated boron-manganese steels. In the present work, the influence of different process gases and furnace dwell times during the heat treatment was investigated. Humidified ...
