Análise da forma da partícula na aplicação do Método dos Elementos Discretos (DEM)
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2013-08-06) SANTOS, Elias Gomes dos; MESQUITA, André Luiz Amarante; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1331279630816662
This work analyzes the effect of particle shape through the Discrete Element Method (DEM). Are employed four particles with different shapes and sphericity – one spherical and three non-spherical. The repose angle is the main tool to evaluating of the flow. The analysis starts with the calibration of the spherical particle using available literature data, then theses calibrated parameters are employed for the flow simulation of the non-spherical particles. Comparisons are performed on the computational effort, and this information is used to verify the advantages that the spherical particle provides on the three other shapes. In this scenario, procedures were developed to help in the calibration process of the repose angle, based in the knowledge of the sensitivity of some DEM parameters. The results show the influence of non-spherical shapes and, mainly, that is possible to obtain with the spherical shape, similar flows to the non-spherical shapes with computational gain.

Caracterização microestrutural e de propriedades mecânicas de soldas do aço ASTM A 131 pelos processos FCAW convencional e com adição de arame frio
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-09-23) RODRIGUES, Lino Alberto Soares; BRAGA, Eduardo de Magalhães; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4783553888547500
The work presented here show comparatively mechanical properties and microstructure of weld metals employing two welding techniques, an already disseminated, FCAW (arc welding with cored wire) and the other is innovative, FCAW-AF (arc welding with Adding Tubular Wire with a cold wire is not energized) at three levels of speed 6, 8 and 10 m / min. In this process two diameters of the cold wire 0.8 and 1.0 mm were used. The base metal used was a naval steel ASTM 131 grade A (low carbon) in geometry of plates 150 mm x 300 mm x 9.5 mm, applied to V-groove (Bisel of 22.5°) with angle 45° summed, with mild opening of root of 2.4 mm. The weld used was top type with the application of two passes, one root pass and the pass of finish (or filling). In order to establish of weld conditions 5 types of destructive were carried out: face transverse bend, tension, impact test (Charpy notched type V), microhardness and metallographic test. In addition to the non-destructive analysis visual and penetrating liquid. In general, the results for the process FCAW-CW, show themselves compatibles, regarding the process FCAW conventional, but some results showed smaller values of mechanical property. This fact much probably happened due the presence of discontinuities in the welded joint FCAW-CW. The microstructural characterization presented similar results to FCAW-CW and FCAW conventional for all energy levels studied.

Estudo da técnica de enchimento de chanfro do aço naval pelo processo GMAW-CW
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011) BARBOZA FILHO, Lúcio da Silva; BRAGA, Eduardo de Magalhães; http://lattes.cnpq.br/4783553888547500
In this work studied the operational viability and the characteristics economic and geometric of technique of the process welding GMAW -CW (additional alimentation of a cold wire) in comparison Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW). The alimentation system of cold wire was designed and adapted to welding gun GMAW. Used an electronic source of multiple processes adjusted in constant voltage and DC+, the gas shield was a mixture 75% Ar+25% CO2 and commercially pure CO2. The wire used was Class ER70S-6 with diameter of 1.2 mm for the electrode wire and 1.0 mm for the cold wire, the both wires were fed in heads independent. The input operating variables were the feed speed of wire energized at three levels, 4, 6 and 8 m / min and the wire feed speed in cold 50%, 60% and 70% of the wire feed speed energized . The welds were automated in simple deposited in the pushing direction and the positioning of the cold wire in a single level, Tandem in chamfer "U" steel plate ASTM 1020. The variables of response used were: superficial inspection of the cords, analysis of the geometry (width, penetration, reinforcement and dilution) and economic solder (melting rate, deposition rate, yield and operating cost). The results indicated that for surface analysis, using the AR25% CO2 gas to the surface of the strands were more homogeneous with respect to CO2 and less splash index for the analysis of economic characteristics, the process always GMAW-CW was superior to the conventional process, the operating costs the conventional process was lower, but without filling of the chamfer, which occurred with the use of GMAW-CW.

Influência da convecção termossolutal na transição colunar/equiaxial em ligas Al-Si sob condições unidirecionais e transitórias de extração de calor

The macrostructure of cast ingots consists of three different zones, that is, the chill, columnar, and equiaxed zones respectively. The origin of each one has been the subject of numerous experimental and theoretical researches in the field of metallurgy because of the well-known correlation between grain structures and mechanical properties. The structure is almost determined in the solidification process, so it is essential to control the solidification process. Despite this effort there is as yet no way that the macrostructure of an ingot can be predicted nor even any clear agreement on how the columnar to equiaxed transition (CET) actually occurs. The CET during solidification has been studied for many years and experimental observations show that the position of the CET and the size of the equiaxed grains is dependent on thermal conditions associated with the casting process including alloy system, alloy composition, melt superheat, mold temperature, mold material, heat-transfer coefficients at the metal-mold interface, cooling rate, casting size, melt convection, transport of solute, and the concentration of nucleating particles. The objective of this contribution is the presentation of experimental results on the CET in three hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys during the horizontal unsteady-state directional solidification in a cooled mold. The thermal contact condition at the metal/mold interface was also standardized with the heat extracting surface being polished. Thermocouples have been connected with the metal, and the time– temperature data have been recorded automatically. A combined theoretical and experimental approach is applied to quantitatively determine the solidification thermal parameters such as transient heat-transfer coefficients, tip growth rates, thermal gradients, and cooling rates which affect the structure transition. The experimental and calculated values have shown a very good agreement. A comparative study between the results of this article and those from the literature proposed to investigate the CET during upward vertical solidification of Al-Si hypoeutectic alloys is also presented.

Um modelo de turbulência baseado no conceito de vórtice
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011-03-04) FERNANDES, Cindy Stella; LINS, Erb Ferreira; http://lattes.cnpq.br/5272283698536321
The turbulence is present in most of the flows observed in industry and nature. There are many considerations regarding the difficulties related to the characterization of turbulent flows. One of the many issues regarding the procedure of analyzing the problem through the statistical description of the fields, which leads to the problem of closure and the modeling of the Reynolds tensor, usually with models based on the turbulent viscosity concept. The turbulence models have some shortcomings in predicting the turbulent flow field, which justifies the research of new approaches to treatment turbulence. In this work, the problem of closure is treated using the modeling based on the concept of turbulent viscosity. The proposed new turbulence model admits the existence of vortexs immersed in the flow and applies concepts and definitions related to the identification of this structure, using the Q - criteria that characterizes the region of flow occupied by the vortex. It is proposed to investigate the applicability of this model, resulting in a new turbulence model called k − ε −Q . The model applicability is evaluated through a numerical code for computational treatment of turbulent flows. The numerical solution was obtained by discretization of the fluid domain, using the finite volume method and the multigrid method was used for solving the resulting linear system. As benchmark, we used the turbulence model to simulate the flow in a square cavity with sliding lid and turbulent flow over a backward-facing step. The results were compared with some experimental data and demonstrated that the model proposed here appears to be more effective than the classical k − ε in the treatment of turbulence in these two problems.
