Considerable residual stresses may form during quenching due to the differential cooling and the increase in volume accompanying the phase transformations. The design of a part may be entirely responsible for the formation of residual stresses at a critical level and even cracking during quenching. Furthermore, a certain design may be perfectly safe for one type of steel, or one type cooling conditions, and unsafe for another. In this study, an experimental procedure to investigate the influence of specimen geometry on the evolution residual stresses is proposed. The cylindrical specimens with 30 mm outer diameter were prepared from C60 and 90MnCrV8 steel bars. First, solid cylinders were quenched according to different procedures. Then, the treatment giving the minimum residual stress was applied to the hollow cylinders having various hole diameter and degree of eccentricity. By changing the position of holes in the cross-section of the specimens, a thickness gradient as a function of the eccentricity ratio was obtained. Thus, for a given transformation behaviour and quenching conditions, the effect of shape becomes more discriminating on the eccentrically drilled holes. The tangential residual stresses were determined at the specified points along the circumference of the cylinders by X-ray diffraction and d-sin2 Ψ technique. The microstructures of the specimens were determined by metallographic investigation also using hardness values and respective CCT-diagrams. The results were discussed considering the microstructural evaluation of the specimens.

Analysis of the Raman Frequency Shifts for the Lattice Modes and Vibrons Related to the Thermodynamic Quantities in the eta Phase of Solid Nitrogen Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2013-08-01) The thermodynamic quantities of the isothermal compressibility, thermal expansion and the specific heat are calculated here as a function of pressure by using the observed Raman frequencies of the lattice modes and vibrons in the. phase of solid nitrogen. The Pippard relations and their spectroscopic modifications are constructed, and the slope dP/dT is deduced from the Raman frequency shifts in this phase of N-2. It is shown that the thermodynamic quantities can be predicted from the Raman frequency shifts...
Investigation of physical properties of quaternary AgGa0.5In0.5Te2 thin films deposited by thermal evaporation Karaagac, H.; Parlak, Mehmet (Elsevier BV, 2010-8) The aim of this study is to understand the structural, optical and photo-electrical properties of the quaternary chalcogenide AgGa 0.5In0.5Te2 thin films deposited onto the glass substrates by thermal evaporation of the single crystalline powder. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) showed remarkable change in atomic percentage of the constituent elements after annealing. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) of the films below the annealing temperature of 300°C indicated the polycrystalline structure with co-exis...
Investigation of structural and optical parameters of Cu-Ag-In-Se thin films deposited by thermal evaporation method Gullu, H. H.; CANDAN, İDRİS; COŞKUN, EMRE; Parlak, Mehmet (2015-01-01) Annealing effect on the structural and optical properties of the quaternary Cu-Ag-In-Se thin film deposited by the thermal evaporation has been investigated. The evaporation source was prepared by using vertical Bridgman-Stockbarger crystal growth system. Structural analysis indicated that annealing the films following to the deposition resulted in the changes from amorphous to polycrystalline phase with the preferred orientation along (1 1 2) direction. In order to determine the optical properties of the t...
Study on the Structural and Electrical Properties of Sequentially Deposited Ag-Ga-In-Te Thin Films Coskun, EMRE; Gullu, H. H.; Parlak, Mehmet; Ercelebi, C. (2015-02-01) The structural properties and electrical conduction mechanisms of Ag-Ga-In-Te thin films deposited by a combination of e-beam and thermal evaporation methods were studied for various annealing temperatures. Structural analysis showed the existence of InTe and InTe binary phases at the early stage of crystallization and monophase of AgGaInTe with the main orientation along (112) direction following the post-annealing at 400 C. The effects of the structural changes on electrical properties and temperature dep...
Calculation of the C-P-C-V as a function of temperature close to the melting point in benzene Tari, O.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Informa UK Limited, 2018-01-01) The temperature dependence of the C-P - C-V is calculated at constant pressures using the observed volume data from the literature for solid and liquid benzene near the melting point. Our calculated values are compared with some earlier treatments and we find that they disagree at constant pressures for the solid benzene, whereas for the liquid benzene agreement is reasonable in terms of the order of magnitude between our calculated C-P - C-V and those predicted from the Peng-Robinson equation of state. Our...
