    In this paper, the residual stress of ZTC4 titanium alloy plate after different cutting amount and different aging methods is measured, and the influence of cutting amount and different aging methods on the residual stress of ZTC4 titanium alloy plate is compared and analyzed. The results show that the value of residual stress introduced by cutting is positively correlated with the amount of cutting, while the increase of the amount of cutting is small. Under the experimental conditions, the effect of vibration aging and thermal aging on the stress relief of ZTC4 titanium alloy is similar. For vibration aging and thermal aging, the larger the residual stress value before aging, the more stress can be removed by aging, and the higher the stress removal rate.

    This paper conducts on experimental study on evaporation heat transfer of 9 inner-threaded copper tubes with different tooth profile parameters under air conditioning conditions. The experiments show that the average convective heat transfer coefficient of the tube with 56 racks increased by 9.91% compared to that with 70 racks. The average convective heat transfer coefficient of the stepped teeth increased by 14.18% compared with that of the normal teeth. The average convective heat transfer coefficient of the same copper tube in refrigerant R32 increased by 59.43% compared with that in refrigerant R22. Therefore, it provides support for the development of new types of inner-threaded copper tubes.

    In this paper, TA10 titanium alloy is cooled with furnace at different temperatures. The effects of furnace cooling temperature on the microstructure and tensile properties of TA10 titanium alloy are studied by means of optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and room temperature tensile properties test. The results show that the furnace cooling temperature will affect the content of primary α phase and secondary α phase in the microstructure. With the increase of furnace cooling temperature, the content of primary α phase decreases, the content of secondary α phase increases, and the strength of the alloy increases, but the plasticity decreases with the increase of furnace cooling temperature. When the furnace cooling temperature is in the two-phase region, the micro-morphology of the tensile fracture is composed of a large number of equiaxed dimples. When the furnace cooling temperature is in the single-phase region, the fracture morphology is mainly rock-like. In the process of increasing the furnace cooling temperature, the number of micro-cracks in the fracture morphology increases, and tear ridges appear.

    In order to investigate the influence law of homogenization process of hot-rolled 1xxx aluminum alloy on the microstructure and properties, the microstructure of the alloy was characterized by metallographic microscope and scanning microscope. It was found that under the homogenization condition of 580 °C×12 h, with the extension of the holding time, the grain size of 1xxx aluminum alloy continuously grew and the second phase gradually dissolved. The hardness reaches its peak at 12 h. By comparing the microstructure and properties of the finished aluminum foil produced by the two homogenization processes of 580 °C×12 h and 580 °C×6 h, it was found that extending the holding time had a relatively small effect on the grain size of the finished aluminum foil, but it was beneficial to reduce the size and area proportion of the second phase, thereby improving the elongation of the finished aluminum foil.

    In view of the problems such as leakage and rupture caused by erosion wear and corrosion, the influence of bending angle, curvature radius, fluid velocity, particle size and mass flow on the maximum erosion rate of titanium alloy elbow pipe are analyzed by finite element simulation software in this paper. The simulation results show that the area prone to erosion wear is mainly distributed in the outer area of the inner wall of the elbow, and with the increase of the bending angle, the position of the area prone to erosion is gradually closer to the outlet. The maximum erosion rate decreases with the increase of curvature redius, the change of maximum erosion rate is more sensitive to the velocity of low velocity fluid. The influence of particle size on the maximum erosion rate is determined by both the quality of sand and the quantity of sand, and the change of particle size does not change the location of the erosion-prone region. The maximum erosion rate increases with the increase of mass flow rate, and eventually tends to be flat. Finally, from the perspective of bionics, using the natural desert red willow bark as the bionic prototype, the structure of the erosion-prone parts is optimized to extend the service life of the titanium alloy elbow pipe.

    In order to further investigate the melt flow and solidification heat transfer law in the molten pool during casting and rolling, reveal the generation mechanism of cracks and other defects of cast-rolled 6061 aluminum alloy, and provide reliable theoretical guidance for improving the cast-rolled 6061 sheet, a coupling model of casting roll-cooling water-molten pool was established by using three-dimensional modeling software SolidWorks. The heat transfer and cooling between molten pool, cooling water and casting roll are described, and the heat transfer equations and boundary conditions required for simulating each physical site are determined. The periodic distribution of temperature field and flow field in molten pool is reflected in the form of cloud diagram and flow diagram. The influence principle of casting billet quality is discussed, and the accuracy of calculation is proved by experiments. The results show that the surface eddy current makes the height of Kiss point different in the direction of the width of the molten pool, the exit temperature of the edge is 239.6 ℃, and the exit temperature of the central part is 301 ℃. The center and edge Kiss points are low, and these parts are prone to cracks. The maximum speed of the flow line at the rod sleeve is 16.94 m/s, and due to the difference in the inflow Angle of the cooling water, under the rotation of the casting roll, the flow rate of the cooling water changes alternately in the direction of the circumference of the casting roll according to 1/4 cycle, and the cooling temperature difference between the two adjacent cycles is about 30 ℃.

    The effects of Zr and homogenizing heat treatment on the microstructure and properties of 5083 aluminum alloy cast-rolled plate are studied by means of OM, SEM and hardness test at room temperature. The results show that Zr and Al elements combine to form rod-like Al3Zr phases interspersed at the grain boundaries can effectively inhibit the recrystallization of tissues. After homogenization at 470℃/14 h, the plasticity of the cast rolled sheet is the best, and the hardness, tensile strength, yield strength and elongation of the edge and core of the cast rolled sheet are 72.82HV0.1 and 63.15HV0.1, 100.13 MPa, 82.27 MPa and 16.92%, respectively.
