Abstract

The effects of particle content, particle size, operating temperature and magnetic field on steady-state creep behavior of thick-walled rotating cylinders made of Al-SiC composites have been investigated. Loading is composed of a uniform magnetic field in axial direction, steady-state heat conduction in radial direction and an inertia body force due to rotation. The composite creep constitutive equation has been described by Norton’s law in which the creep parameters are functions of particle size, temperature and particle content. The composite properties are radial dependent based on volume fraction of SiC reinforcement. It has been found that the minimum effective creep strain rate belongs to a composite identified by 25% SiC at the inner and 5% at the outer surfaces. Therefore this composite has been selected for the design of the cylinder. It has been concluded that increasing particle size and operating temperature significantly increases the effective creep strain rates. It has also been illustrated that magnetic field decreases the stresses and the effective creep strain rates.
