Estudo de Peças Metálicas Lata de refrigerantes em Alumínio MATERIAIS METÁLICOS Estudo de Peças Metálicas Lata de refrigerantes em Alumínio The modern aluminum beverage can traces its origins to 1959, when Coors introduced the first all-aluminum, seamless two-piece beverage container. In addition to providing a superior taste to the steel and tin cans then in vogue, the new package was recyclable: Coors would pay one cent for each can returned to the brewery. According to the Can Manufacturers Institute, this first generation of aluminum cans weighed approximately 85.6 grams per unit. In the half century since, aluminum beverage can manufacturers have lightened the package ever further - reducing the gauge required to fabricate both the cans and the ends. Today’s (2013) cans weigh less than 12,98 grams http://www.aluminum.org 6,6 x weight reduction in 55 years

(0,355 l) aluminum container. In addition to being lighter-weight than their steel predecessors, these new aluminum cans provided a superior surface upon which to print text and graphics to help promote brand awareness. In their first year on the market, one million cases of soda were packaged in aluminum cans. A range of other factors contributed to the aluminum can’s early adoption by beverage manufacturers: it was easily molded (and hence its ability to be formed in only two pieces), it was highly resistant to corrosion and would not rust, and it admirably supported the carbonation pressure required to package soda (aluminum cans withstand pressure of up to 620 kPa). Such advantages were not lost on Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola who, in 1967, adopted the aluminum can for Coke, Pepsi, and Diet Pepsi. The aluminum can revolution was under way—but its biggest boost had yet to come.

Single Crystal Turbine Blades MATERIAIS METÁLICOS Single Crystal Turbine Blades SFC Thrust specific fuel consumption Thrust specific fuel consumption (TSFC) TSFC or SFC for thrust engines is the mass of fuel needed to provide the net thrust for a given period e.g. g/(s·kN) (grams of fuel per second-kilonewton). Specific fuel consumption of air-breathing jet engines at their maximum efficiency varies more or less inversely with speed, which means that the fuel consumption per mile or per km can be a more appropriate comparison for aircraft that travel at very different speeds. The bypass ratio (BPR) of a turbofan engine is the ratio between the mass flow rate of air drawn through the fan disk that bypasses the engine core (un-combusted air) to the mass flow rate passing through the engine core that is involved in combustion to produce mechanical energy. The ducted fan, rather than combustion gases expanding in a nozzle, produces the vast majority of the thrust in high-bypass designs. A high bypass ratio provides a lower thrust specific fuel consumption (grams/sec fuel per unit of thrust in kN using SI units, especially at zero velocity (at takeoff) and at the cruise speed of most commercial jet aircraft; however, the lower exhaust velocities of high-bypass designs also figure strongly in lower noise output, which is a decided advantage over earlier low or zero bypass designs. High bypass designs are by far the dominant type for all commercial passenger aircraft and both civilian and military jet transports. Military combat aircraft usually use engines with low bypass ratios to compromise between fuel economy and the requirements of combat: high power-to-weight ratios, supersonic performance, and the ability to use afterburners, all of which are more compatible with low bypass engines. Unducted Fan (UDF) or propfan: hybrid between a turbofan and a turboprop (A turboprop engine is a turbine engine that drives an aircraft propeller. The engine's exhaust gases do not contain enough energy to create significant thrust, since almost all of the engine's power is used to drive the propeller).

Single Crystal Turbine Blades MATERIAIS METÁLICOS Single Crystal Turbine Blades nickel-base single crystal superalloys - coatings Composition and role of additions The M of MCrAlY stands for either Ni or Co, depending on the type of superalloy. Co-based appear to have superior resistance to corrosion. Cr provides hot-corrosion resistance, but the amount that can be added is limited by the effect it is expected to have on the substrate, and the formation of Cr-rich phases in the coating. Al content is typically around 10-12 wt%. Since oxidation life is essentially controlled by the availability of Al, it would be tempting to increases the aluminium content. However, this results in significant reduction of ductility (for example, Sivakumar, 1989). MCrAlY also typically contain 1 wt% yttrium (Y), which enhances adherence of the oxide layer. The main role of Y is to combine with sulfur and prevent its segregation to the oxide layer, which is otherwise detrimental to its adhesion. Additions of hafnium (Hf) play a similar role. The effect of other additions has also been investigated (Nicoll, 1982). It was found that silicon (Si) significantly improved cyclic oxydation resistance, however it also decreases the melting point of the coating. 5 wt% are enough to lower the melting temperature to about 1140 oC. Additions of rhenium (Re) have been shown to improve isothermal or cyclic oxidation resistance, and thermal cycle fatigue (Czech et al., 1994). Additions of tantalum (Ta) can also increase the oxidation resistance. Schematic illustration of NiCrAlY microstructure.

Single Crystal Turbine Blades MATERIAIS METÁLICOS Single Crystal Turbine Blades nickel-base superalloy Jet engines high pressure turbine blades (HPT blades) are expected to last for ~30,000 h. For land-based power generation, this time can vary between 50,000 and 75,000 h (about 9 years). HPT blades in jet engine typically undergo one refurbishment (strip coating and re-coat) throughout their life; in power generation applications, one or two refurbishments depending on the target life. At 2004, rough estimates of costs provided by RWE Innogy are (power generation): set of blades for HPT: 1.7 million € (≈ 10.000 $ each (RR turbofan engine 2009)) cost of refurbishment: variable: 0.34 to 1.1 million €. The HPT blades in jet engines mainly suffer from oxidation; Pt-aluminide coatings are preferred in these conditions and are commonly used to coat the main surface. Rolls Royce turbine blades. Each turbine blade can fit in the hand and costs about $10,000 each. Rolls-Royce's executives like to point out that their big engines, of almost six tonnes, are worth their weight in silver. Turbine blades are difficult to make because they have to survive high temperatures and huge stresses. The air inside big jet engines reaches about 1,600°C in places, 400ºC hotter than the melting point of the metal from which the turbine blades are made. (Without a proper cooling system, this would be like trying to stir a cup of hot coffee with a spoon made of ice.) Each blade is grown from a single crystal of alloy for strength and then coated with tough ceramics. A network of tiny air holes then creates a thin blanket of cool air that stops it from melting (the Economist 2009).
