INCAS QUICK THERMAL TEST SHOCK INSTALLATION - QTS1
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2009, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
From the assembly of the wear factors which act on the “hot parts” of the turbo engines, respectively on the protective coatings, the thermal shock acts the most perturbing. The behavior of the materials at thermal shock is evaluated at present on unique inst manufacturer, protective coatings included as well as of those specialized in testing. The thermal test shock installation conceived by INCAS and achieved in collaboration with INCDT COMOTI for testing of the materials at thermal shock, especially those from the aerospatial domain, represents a versatile construction, in progress in comparison with those known. The QTS1 - quick thermal test shock installation assures with reproducible results the material evaluation in the heating and cooling speed conditions up to 100°C/s at heating and 60ºC/s at cooling, situations which correspond to the extreme functional conditions of the turbo engines, space shuttle, cogenerative systems, etc.

Calculation of hybrid joints used in modern aerospace structures
The state – of - the art of aeronautical structures show that parts are manufactured and subsequently assembled with the use of fasteners and/ or bonding. Adhesive bonding is a key technology to low weight, high fatigue...
The impact of aerodynamics on fuel consumption in railway applications
The main consequence of on air flow surrounding a moving train resides in the aerodynamic drag and a certain pressure distribution on the frontal and lateral surfaces of the vehicle. The actual value of the aerodynamic d...
