Item Finite element magnetostatic analysis of magnetostrictive (Tb 0.3Dy0.7Fe1.95) actuator with different housing materials(Defense Scientific Information and Documentation Centre, 2013) Joshi, R.; Subba Rao, M.; Kadoli, R.Permeability of a housing material is one of the significant factors affecting the performance of Tb0.3Dy0.7Fe1.95 based magnetostrictive actuator. According to Lenz's law the rate of flux transfer depends on permeability of housing material surrounding the terfenol-D. In this paper the co-axial coils in a free air are analysed under direct current excitation and the results are found to agree well with both analytical and Maxwell simulation. Also, the comparison of flux density distribution in co-axial coils placed inside different housing materials of magnetostrictive actuator is found by solving magnetostatic equations using Ansoft Maxwell 2D solver. The axial distribution of magnetic flux density, radial distribution of magnetic flux density and flux distribution in the actuator assembly with different housing materials namely mild steel, cast iron and aluminium with and without Terfenol-D are discussed. © 2013, DESIDOC.Item Solid Particle Erosion Behavior of Partially Oxidized Al with NiCr Composite Coating at Elevated Temperature(Springer, 2021) Subba Rao, M.; Ramesh, M.R.; Kadoli, R.The composite coating was developed and investigated the solid particle erosion performance at elevated temperature by varying impact angles. Al2O3 erodent of grit size 50 µm was used in air-jet erosion tester to investigate the resistance to erosion at RT, 200, 400, 600, and 800 °C by varying 30, 45, 60, 75, and 90° impact angles. The composite coating was deposited on MDN321 steel by plasma spray process with feedstock of “30 weight percent of partially oxidized Al powder and 70 wt.% of NiCr alloy powder.” The composite coating was characterized by bond strength, porosity, micro-hardness, and density. Volumetric erosion loss concerning temperature and impact angle was studied using SEM, EDAX, and XRD analysis. Non-contact three-dimensional optical profilometer was used to quantify the volumetric erosion loss. MDN321 steel showed better erosion resistance than composite coating at all the temperatures. Due to the formation of stable oxides at 800 °C the erosion resistance of the coating was improved. © 2021, ASM International.
