The Efficiency of the Centrifuge is Force Action on the Propagation Mechanism of SHS-Wave

Abstract

Adiabatic wave (AW) is generated by the effect of two forces, namely centrifugal and Coriolis forces, caused on the reaction of the self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS). The synthesis occurs in the aluminothermic oxide system placed inside the heat insulated cylindrical reactor rotating around a vertical axis. Actually there take place two processes during the SH synthesis: 1. separation of the reaction products, in particular aluminum (corundum) oxide concentrated on a quartz wall of the reactor and forming a tube; 2. formation of a coherent flow of liquid metal particles accelerating in the reactor axis direction according to its rotation speed and co-ordinates of Rх particle in the reactor. The size of the cluster representing particles practically does not change from the very moment of their generation as a result of the reaction due to their motion coherency. Considering the motion speed particles get inside a fresh combustible mixture deeper and deeper and, thus, initiate ignition of the accumulating reaction mixture. This provides growth of the heat release rate and transition of the process to the adiabatic mode. Metal clusters bearing kinetic energy and heat energy of the reaction (T = 2.8-3.5 thousand K) actually have a high energy potential that can increase according to growth of the rotation speed and longitudinal size of the reactor. So, if any highly endothermic reaction mixture takes place within a reactor co-ordinate with exponential growth of the moving clusters energy this reaction can be initiated and consequently will give start to numerous research capabilities. A real possibility of such rare and new materials synthesis technology is illustrated using as an example a reaction of the boron and aluminum oxides attacked by 92 m/s speed moving tungsten clusters with formation of a product from the intermediate boron and aluminum oxides and also tungsten and aluminum borides. The results of the synthesized oxide material study using a radio spectrometer has been presented and presence of free valency in it has been identified. Production of free valency materials is of interest in terms of their mixture with nanomaterilas and their compaction at ultrahigh pressure with the purpose to receive new materials with original mechanical, electric, photo-electric, and other properties. The references given below contain data on this technology studied previously.
