Abstract:The electrochemical corrosion resistance properties of nano Fe-Al/Cr3C2 composite coating were tested. The ideal amount of nano Fe-Al/Cr3C2 reunion-granulation particle to be added was determined. Using three-electrode system, the electrochemical corrosion resistance properties of five kinds Fe-Al/Cr3C2 composite coatings were tested. These were micro Fe-Al/Cr3C2 composite coating, nano Fe-Al/Cr3C2 composite coating, and composite coating with additional 5%, 10%, and 15% nano Fe-Al/Cr3C2 reunion-granulation particles, respectively. Zview software was used to fit the AC impedance spectrum in order to analyze the electrochemical corrosion resistance action of coatings. SEM was used to analyze the corrosion surface of coatings. The results indicate that the best electrochemical corrosion resistance property of composite coatings was obtained by adding 5% nano Fe-Al/Cr3C2 reunion-granulation particles. Compared with other coatings, the coating with added 5% nano Fe-Al/Cr3C2 reunion-granulation particles has maximum self-corrosion potential of -0.775 V and minimum self-corrosion current of 0.280 mA/cm2. When the content of nano granulated particles is lower than the optimum value, the electrochemical corrosion resistance properties of coatings are because the content of nano granulated particles is too low to improve density and reduce pore size. When the content of nano granulated particles is higher than the optimum value, the electrochemical corrosion resistance property of coatings are nano granulated particles makes surface of coatings showing high chemical energy.

Abstract:In order to solve the problem that the piezoelectric vibration energy harvesting structure is difficult to meet the acquisition requirements of wide frequency band, 3D and high efficiency at the same time, a piezoelectric vibration energy harvester structure with the concentrated mass replaced by Z-type beam was proposed. Nonlinear mass was introduced by the Z-type beam structure, which enabled more modal of the harvester to be concentrated in the low frequency range, increased the acquisition frequency band, and realized the 3D energy harvesting function of the harvester by the instability of the horizontal and longitudinal Z-type beam structure. The dynamic characteristics of the Z-type beam after increasing the width were analyzed, and the energy acquisition performance of the piezoelectric array was discussed. Models and experimental platforms were built for simulation and experimental verification. Then, the dynamic characteristics of the Z-type piezoelectric beam was compared with those of the spiral beam structure and classic cantilever beam mass structure. The simulation and experimental results show that when the beam has seven folded layers, the number of modes with frequency within 50 Hz can reach nine, and in the 1-100 Hz range and 1 Hz harmonic excitation, the peaks of the forward acquisition voltage-frequency curve reaches up to four and are mainly concentrated in the 0-40 Hz range. The maximum open circuit voltage is up to 16 V, greatly widening the acquisition frequency band. The maximum open circuit voltage peaks in both the horizontal and vertical directions are above 10 V, while the peaks of the horizontal and vertical acquisition voltage-frequency curves are greater than four, achieving 3D energy acquisition. The maximum output power reaches 0.18 mW when the load is 10 kΩ. When the width of the Z-type beam is increased to 100 mm, the number of modes is greater than 30 in the range of 200 Hz. The peak number of acquisition voltage curves of double patch in series is up to four. The maximum voltage reached 14 V, which proves that the Z-beam is suitable for the arrangement of the piezoelectric array.

Abstract:Traditional piezoelectric capturing system has the defects including narrow work bandwidth and fragile with piezoelectric ceramics materials, which is unable to meet the new requirements of wearable, miniaturization, portable devices and so on. This paper report the high performance composite films based on BaTiO3/Graphene Oxide/polydimethyl siloxane (BaTiO3/GO/PDMS) with different GO content. GO with large specific surface and strong fluidity was employed as a carbon-based conductive phase material to form micro-capacitors in the ferroelectric composite and thus enhance the piezoelectric performance of the sample. The as-prepared BaTiO3/GO/PDMS composite films with 0.6 wt% GO showed a dielectric constant of 185 and a conductivity of 8.5 10-5 S/m. A remanent polarization of 13.47 μC/cm2 can be obtained, which is 28% higher than that of the pure BaTiO3/PDMS films. Meanwhile, the synthesized BaTiO3/GO/PDMS composite film exhibits a maximum output voltage of ~7.71 V, which is almost 2.78 times higher than that without GO. The performance of lead-free piezoelectric nanogenerators is significantly enhanced after compounding with GO materials. Moreover, the unsymmetrical interdigital harvester with BaTiO3/GO/PDMS piezoelectric materials has been fabricated. The results indicated that the output voltage of the harvester compounding with GO increased and -3dB bandwidth of harvesters increased from 8.7 Hz (without GO) to 11.2 Hz (with GO). The proposed BaTiO3/GO/PDMS lead-free composite piezoelectric nanogenerator has great prospect in flexible energy harvesting.

Abstract:Objetive: In order to achieve ultra-precision polishing of workpiece surface, an UV induced nanoparticle colloid jet processing system has been established. The hydrodynamic characteristics, polishing process and ultra-smooth surface morphology of UV induced nanoparticle colloid jet processing were studied. Methods: Firstly, conical and cosine opto-hydraulic coupling nozzles were designed according to the requirements of opto-hydraulic coupling. Then, three-phase flow simulation of non-submerged jet was carried out for two kinds of opto-hydraulic coupling nozzles, and the flow track and flow field distribution of nanoparticles were compared and analyzed. Then, light coupled colloid jet polishing experiments were carried out on the same single crystal silicon workpiece with two kinds of nozzles using titanium dioxide nanoparticle colloid as polishing fluid. Finally, the surface before and after polishing was characterized and compared. Results: The results show that the combined velocity (20.73m/s) and dynamic pressure (2.5MPa) obtained by the cosine nozzle are higher than that of the conical nozzle combined velocity (7.12m/s) and dynamic pressure (0.2MPa), and the average residence time of nanoparticles in the cosine nozzle (0.005s) is shorter than that of the conical nozzle (0.023s). Under the same polishing parameters, the surface roughness (Rq 0.810 nm, Ra 0.651 nm) of the workpiece polished by cosine nozzle is lower than that of conical nozzle. Conclusion: Using cosine nozzle in UV induced nanoparticle colloid jet processing can obtain higher polishing efficiency and lower surface roughness than conical nozzle.

Abstract:The life of satellite electric slip ring is about one hundred thousand, in order to verify the reliability of column slip ring at the end of one million rounds, we hold a two million rounds life test. Slip ring contains both single brush wire and brush bunch. This test compares the transmission error of different kind of signals passing through single brush wire and brush bunch. The structure of brush wire is of great value for the transmitting stability of space electric slip ring. Besides, this paper verifies the main influencing factors such as different temperature, revolving speed, and vacuum. Therefore, the experiment demonstrates that CAN and RS422 signals transmission error shows brush bunch rings, which has 0.6 percent of voltage drop and no transmission error, is more stable than single brush wire rings in the vacuum,and the signal transmission speed is 500kbps。The single brush rings’ maximum voltage drop is over 100 percent and transmission errors is about 16.1 percent. It proves that the design of brush bunch can effectively improve the reliability of signal transmission and prolong the service life of slip rings which is of great value for the reliability of satellites.
