  • Half Array Architecture for Advancing Microchannel Heat Recuperation to Market

    Creator:
    Brannon, Samuel T.
    Abstract:
    High temperature microchannel heat recuperators (HTμRs) offer an efficient means of improving reactor process thermal efficiency by offering smaller form factors due to increased heat transfer surface area density and volumetric heat transfer rate over traditional heat exchanger designs. To date, HTμRs face cost and reliability challenges. In this work,...

  • Thermal Processing of Injection-Molded Silicon Carbide

    Creator:
    Chinn, Richard E.
    Abstract:
    Silicon carbide is an important and versatile nonoxide ceramic. Powder injection molding (PIM) is a method of high-speed fabrication of complex near-net shapes of SiC and other powders. Green micro-machining (GMM) is used to extend the shaping capability of green ceramics and powder metallurgy to smaller feature sizes. Debinding--removal of...

  • Material Properties in Ceramic Injection Molding Design

    Creator:
    Kate, Kunal H.
    Abstract:
    Ceramic injection molding (CIM) is a high volume, near net shaping process used to manufacture ceramic parts with complex features and shapes. In CIM design it is important to understand the molding behavior as a function of powder-polymer (feedstock) composition in order to achieve desired part dimensions and properties, at...
