Problems solved by technology

However, Na 22 K 78 The alloy is very active, the preparation of Na 22 K 78 The alloy needs to be carried out under the protection of vacuum or inert gas, and needs to be vacuum-sealed and packaged; otherwise, it will spontaneously ignite if it is exposed to air for a long time, and it will explode violently when it meets water
This puts forward high requirements on the assembly environment and sealing performance of the power generation device, which limits its application range.

Abstract

The invention discloses a liquid gallium alloy and a preparation method of the alloy. The liquid gallium alloy comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 60-75% of gallium, 10-25% of indium, 1-11% of tin, and 1-8% of zinc. The preparation method of the liquid gallium alloy comprises the following steps: firstly weighing gallium, indium, tin and zinc according to the mass percent of each component, heating gallium to 29 DEG C to melt, and stopping heating; pouring the liquid gallium into a stainless steel container, and pouring indium, tin and zinc into the stainless steel container too; at normal temperature, using a stainless steel made spoon to mix and stir the metals uniformly until the four raw materials are totally dissolved to be liquid, and finishing the preparation of the liquid gallium alloy. The liquid gallium alloy can be taken as a working medium for power generation of a liquid-metal magnetic fluid generator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a gallium alloy and a preparation method thereof. technical background [0002] The liquid metal magnetic fluid generator uses the highly conductive liquid metal sealed inside the power generation channel as the working medium for power generation, and realizes high power generation density and power generation efficiency. Therefore, the physicochemical properties of liquid metals, such as chemical stability, melting point, density, and electrical conductivity, largely affect the structure, operating performance, and application prospects of liquid metal MHD generators. [0003] At present, the optional working fluids for liquid metal magnetic fluid generators include mercury, U47 (Bi 41 Pb 22 In 18 sn 11 Cd 8 ) and sodium potassium alloy (Na 22 K 78 ). Mercury is the only metal that is liquid and easy to flow at room temperature. Chinese patent CN1202758A uses mercury vapor generated by high-temperature injection as wo...
