Safety performance of on-board high-pressure composite tanks under fire exposure has drawn extensive attention. Vehicle fires usually lead to such tanks experiencing a term of localized and engulfing fire. During this period, the composite tank would be degraded and even burst before pressure relief device (PRD) opens to release internal high-pressure gas. In this paper, experimental investigation for the tanks subjected to localized and engulfing fire was conducted on an Aluminum liner composite tank filled with hydrogen. Based on the temperature distribution and pressure rise measured in the experiment, a three-dimensional computational fluid dynamics model is developed to study the key factors influencing PRD activation time. The effects of filling medium, tank pressure and localized fire exposure time are analyzed in detail. The experimental results showed that pressure and temperature of internal gas changed little during the localized fire. In addition, filling medium and tank pressure have weak influence on the activation time of thermally-activated PRD (TPRD), but have significant effect on the activation time of pressure-activated PRD. TPRD can respond more quickly to protect the hydrogen composite tank than pressure-activated PRD. PRD activation time increases as the localized fire exposure time extends.

ABSTRACTMolecular dynamics (MD) simulation has been used to study the thermally activated mobility of clusters of self-interstitial atoms (SIAs) in Fe and Cu. Such clusters are formed in metals during irradiation with energetical particles and, according to the cascade production bias model, they play an important role in the microstructure evolution of metals under irradiation. An extensive simulation of clusters from 2 to 30 interstitials has been carried out for the temperature range ≍360-1200K using long-range interatomic pair potentials. The results show that clusters bigger than two SIAs are one-dimensionally mobile. Di-interstitials have two migration mechanisms depending on the temperature. At low temperature the mechanism is one-dimensional whereas at high temperature the probability of rotation and three-dimensional migration increases. It was found that in both metals the effective migration energy of clusters estimated via their jump frequency does not depend on the cluster size, although the cluster jump frequency decreases as the cluster size increases. The mechanism of cluster migration and problems of the treatment of one-dimensional mobility are discussed.

IntroductionThe isothermal devitrification by nucleation and growth of metallic glasses is usually analysed using the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami (JMA) equation: where x is the volume fraction crystallized after time t, K is a thermally activated rate constant, τ is the nucleation lag time, and n is the so-called Avrami exponent. If the nucleation conditions and growth morphology remain unchanged during the crystallization then n is a constant. There is ample experimental evidence that for the Pd-Si system the growth process is either eutectic or interface-controlled. Therefore, one expects n=3 for crystallization on pre-existing nuclei (zero nucleation rate) and n=4 for crystallization at constant nucleation rate, both for three-dimensional growth. When the growth dimensionality is decreased by one these values decrease stepwise by one as well.

To increase the heat capacity in lightweight construction materials, a phase change material (PCM) can be introduced to building elements. A thermally activated building system (TABS) with graphite/PCM concrete hollow core slab is suggested as an energy-efficient technology to shift and reduce the peak thermal load in buildings. An evaluation of heat storage and dissipation characteristics of TABS in graphite/PCM concrete has been conducted using dynamic simulations, but empirical validation is necessary to acceptably predict the thermal behavior of graphite/PCM concrete. This study aimed to validate the thermal behavior of graphite/PCM concrete through a three-dimensional transient heat transfer simulation. The simulation results were compared to experimental results from previous studies of concrete and graphite/PCM concrete. The overall thermal behavior for both materials was found to be similar to experiment results. Limitations in the simulation modeling, which included determination of the indoor heat transfer coefficient, assumption of constant thermal conductivity with temperature, and assumption of specimen homogeneity, led to slight differences between the measured and simulated results.
