[0065] Reference Figure 1 , Attachment Figure 2 , Attachment Figure 3 , Attachment Figure 4 , Attachment Figure 5 and attached Figure 6 The present invention provides a multi-porous centrifugal turntable, comprising a turntable body 100, wherein the upper surface of the turntable body 100 is provided with a first area 110 and a second area 120, wherein the first area 110 is used to receive the melt and accelerate the flow speed of the melt by rotating; and the second area 120 is provided with at least one circle of pore structures 200;
[0066] The channel structure 200 surrounds the first region 110 and includes a plurality of lattices 210 spaced apart in a circumferential direction of the first region 110 , with channels 220 for the melt to pass through being formed between two adjacent lattices 210 ; the second region 120 is used to stir the melt through the lattices 210 when the turntable body 100 rotates.
[0067] In this embodiment, in actual application, the melt flows from top to bottom into the first area 110 through the guide nozzle and then rotates with the turntable body 100. The melt gradually flows to the second area 120 under the action of centrifugal force, wherein the first area 110 is mainly used to accelerate the melt so that the melt has a larger circumferential velocity and contacts the pore structure 200 in the second area 120. When the melt contacts the pore structure 200 in the second area 120, multiple lattices 210 stir the melt, and the melt is subjected to shear and collision, resulting in the breakage of nanoparticle agglomerates in the melt, thereby improving the uniformity of the nanoparticles in the melt.
[0068] Specifically, by setting multiple circles of channel structures 200 in the second area 120 (all the channel structures 200 are centered on the center of the centrifugal turntable and the diameters gradually expand outward, and the channel structures 200 located on the outside surround the channel structures 200 located on the inside, thereby forming a multi-layer circular ring shape), after the melt passes through the first circle of channel structures 200 and is crushed for the first time, it flows from the channels 220 of the first circle of channel structures 200 to the second circle of channel structures 200 and is crushed for the next time. Therefore, through multiple crushings, it is ensured that the nanoparticles can be evenly distributed in the melt. At the same time, the relative slip and uneven distribution problems caused by the density difference between the nanoparticles and the matrix metal melt under the action of ultra-gravity can also be eliminated.
[0069] In certain preferred embodiments, Figure 2 and attached Figure 4 A plurality of circles of channel structures 200 are provided in the second region 120 , and the plurality of circles of channel structures 200 are arranged at intervals along the radial direction of the first region 110 , and the channels 220 corresponding to two adjacent circles of channel structures 200 are staggered along the circumferential direction of the first region 110 .
[0070] In this embodiment, in actual application, because the channels 220 corresponding to two adjacent circles of channel structures 200 are arranged in a staggered manner, the melt will hit the lattice 210 of the next circle of channel structure 200 after passing through the previous circle of channel structure 200, and finally flow out from the channels 220 of the next circle of channel structure 200 after being stirred by the lattice 210 of the next circle of channel structure 200. In the whole process, the melt is broken by shearing and by impact. Under these two effects, the mixing effect between the nanoparticles and the matrix metal melt can be effectively enhanced, thereby further ensuring the uniform distribution of the nanoparticles, which is conducive to the preparation of high-quality powder products.
[0071] In certain embodiments, referring to Figure 4A plurality of flow guiding skeletons 230 are arranged between two adjacent circles of channel structures 200, and any one of the channels 220 of the channel structure 200 close to the first area 110 in the two adjacent circles of channel structures 200 is connected with a plurality of channels 220 of the channel structure 200 far away from the first area 110 in the two adjacent circles of channel structures 200 through the corresponding flow guiding skeleton 230.
[0072] In this embodiment, the flow guide skeleton 230 is, for example, a vertical rib extending in the axial direction of the centrifugal turntable. The end of the vertical rib close to the first area 110 can be designed as a streamlined structure, thereby better guiding the flow of the melt. Two adjacent flow guide skeletons 230 surround to form a channel, and the maximum width of the channel close to the end of the first area 110 is generally less than 0.5 mm. After the melt passes through the channel 220 of the first circle channel structure 200, it collides with the corresponding flow guide skeleton 230, thereby performing an additional crushing and being diverted into multiple melts. The volume of each melt after diversion becomes smaller. After the melt flows into the second circle channel structure 200, the lattice 210 of the second circle channel structure 200 will crush a small melt separately, which can not only improve the crushing efficiency, but also more fully crush the nanoparticle agglomerates in each melt, thereby achieving more delicate crushing, so that the nanoparticles are distributed more evenly.
[0073] In certain embodiments, referring to Figure 6 A third area 130 is further provided on the upper surface of the turntable body 100 . The third area 130 surrounds the second area and includes a flat surface portion 131 .
[0074] In this embodiment, a third area 130 is arranged outside the second area 120 and the melt is accelerated again through the plane portion 131 (equivalent to the function of the first area 110 ), thereby ensuring that the melt has sufficient circumferential velocity to be thrown off the centrifugal turntable and atomized to form a powder product.
[0075] In certain preferred embodiments, Figure 1 The third region 130 further includes an inclined portion 132 whose surface is inclined upward and outward, and an angle is formed between the inclined portion 132 and the plane portion 131 .
[0076] In certain embodiments, referring to Figure 7 and attached Figure 8 , the channel 220 is a single-layer structure.
[0077] In certain embodiments, referring to Fig. 9 The channel 220 is a multi-layer structure stacked along the axial direction of the turntable body 100.
[0078] In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the channel 220 is one of an ellipse, a circle, a square, and a polygon.
[0079] In the above embodiment, the channels 220 of one of the two adjacent circles of channel structures 200 may be a single-layer structure and the channels 220 of the other circle of channel structures 200 may be a multi-layer structure. The cross-sectional shapes of the channels 220 of the same circle of channel structures 200 may be all the same, partly the same, or all different, and the channels 220 of different circles of channel structures 200 may also be all the same, partly the same, or all different.
[0080] Reference Fig.10 The present invention provides a design method for the multi-channel centrifugal turntable in the above embodiment, comprising the following steps:
[0081] B1. Obtaining the flow area of the melt in the first region along the flow direction and using it as the first flow area;
[0082] B2. Calculate the first pore area based on the first flow area; the first pore area is 1.5-4 times the first flow area;
[0083] B3. Set the pore area of the pore closest to the first region to be equal to the first pore area to obtain the pore structure closest to the first region.
[0084] Specifically, the specific steps in step B1 include:
[0085] B11. Calculate the first flow area according to the following formula:
[0086] ;

[0090] C2. Calculate the second pore area based on the second flow area; the second pore area is 1.5-2 times the second flow area;
[0091] C3. The pore area of the pores in two adjacent circles away from the first region is set to be equal to the second pore area, so as to obtain a pore structure in two adjacent circles away from the first region.
[0092] Specifically, the specific steps in step C1 include:
[0093] C11. Calculate the second flow area according to the following formula:
[0094] ;
[0095] in, is the second flow area of the ith is the dynamic viscosity of the melt, is the volume flow rate of the melt, is the radius of the side of the i-th circle channel structure close to the first area, is the melt density of the melt, is the rotation speed of the turntable body, is the specified angle, is the total number of circles of the channel structure in the second area.
[0096] In practical applications, the characteristic diameter of all pores (denoted as ) generally does not exceed 0.5mm. When the cross-sectional shape of the hole is elliptical, the characteristic diameter of the hole refers to the diameter of the major axis of the ellipse; when the cross-sectional shape of the hole is polygonal, the characteristic diameter of the hole refers to the diameter of the inscribed circle of the polygon.
[0097] When the channel is a single-layer structure, that is, a single channel includes one flow channel, the characteristic diameter of the channel refers to the characteristic diameter of the corresponding flow channel. When the cross-sectional shape of the flow channel is an ellipse, the characteristic diameter of the flow channel refers to the major axis diameter of the ellipse; when the cross-sectional shape of the flow channel is a polygon, the characteristic diameter of the flow channel refers to the diameter of the inscribed circle of the polygon.
[0098] When the channel is a multi-layer structure, that is, a single channel includes multiple flow channels stacked along the axial direction of the turntable body, the characteristic diameter of the channel refers to the characteristic diameter of each flow channel, that is, the characteristic diameters of all flow channels generally do not exceed 0.5 mm. When the cross-sectional shape of the flow channel is an ellipse, the characteristic diameter of the flow channel refers to the major axis diameter of the ellipse; when the cross-sectional shape of the flow channel is a polygon, the characteristic diameter of the flow channel refers to the diameter of the inscribed circle of the polygon.
[0099] Therefore, for the pores of the multilayer structure, the first pore area can be calculated according to the following formula:
[0100] ;
[0101] in, is the first pore area, is the total number of channels contained in the channel structure closest to the first region, It is the sum of the flow areas of all flow channels contained in a single channel in the channel structure closest to the first region.
[0102] According to step B2, we know 1.5-4 times .
[0103] The second pore area can be calculated according to the following formula:
[0104] ;
[0105] in, is the area of the i-th second pore, is the total number of channels contained in the ith circle channel structure, It is the sum of the flow areas of all flow channels contained in a single channel in the i-th circle of channel structure.
[0106] According to step C2, we know 1.5-2 times .
[0107] In addition, the specified angle is calculated according to the following formula:
[0108] (Formula 1);
[0109] in, is the specified angle, is the preset feature size, is the melt density of the melt, is the acceleration due to gravity, is the supergravity field strength at the edge of the upper surface of the turntable body, is the diameter of the upper edge of the turntable body, is the dynamic viscosity of the melt, is the volume flow rate of the melt.
[0110] The following is an explanation of the derivation process of Formula 1:
[0111] It is known that the diameter of the upper surface edge of the turntable body (i.e. the diameter of the bevel edge) is , the radius of the upper surface edge of the turntable body (i.e. the length of the edge of the inclined surface from the rotation axis OZ of the turntable body in the radial direction) is , the rotation speed of the turntable body is .
[0112] The circumferential velocity at each position on the upper surface of the turntable body is calculated according to the following formula:
[0113] (Formula 2);
[0114] in, is the circumferential velocity of the jth position on the upper surface of the turntable body, is the length of the jth position on the upper surface of the turntable body from the rotation axis OZ of the turntable body in the radial direction, and j is a positive integer.
[0115] According to formula 2, the centrifugal acceleration at each position on the upper surface of the turntable body can be obtained:
[0116] (Formula 3);
[0117] in, is the centrifugal acceleration at the jth position on the upper surface of the turntable body.
[0118] By transforming formula 3, we can get:
[0119] ;Right now (Formula 4);
[0120] in, is the supergravity field strength formed at the jth position on the upper surface of the turntable body, is the acceleration due to gravity.
[0121] The liquid film flow area of the melt at each position on the upper surface of the turntable body along the normal direction perpendicular to the contour line of the upper surface of the turntable body is calculated according to the following formula:
[0122] (Formula 5);
[0123] in, It is the liquid film flow area of the melt at the jth position on the upper surface of the turntable body along the normal direction perpendicular to the contour line of the upper surface of the turntable body.
[0124] According to Formula 5, when the melt spreads radially along the turntable body, the liquid film flow area of the melt along the normal direction perpendicular to the upper surface contour of the turntable body gradually increases. In order to improve the yield of the finished powder product, the liquid film flow area of the melt at the edge of the upper surface of the turntable body along the normal direction perpendicular to the upper surface contour of the turntable body should be reduced. The liquid film flow area is related to the liquid film thickness. Therefore, the yield of the finished powder product can be improved by controlling the liquid film thickness.
[0125] Specifically, the liquid film thickness of the melt at each position on the upper surface of the turntable body along the normal direction perpendicular to the contour line of the upper surface of the turntable body is calculated according to the following formula:
[0126] (Formula 6).
[0127] in, It is the thickness of the liquid film of the melt at the jth position on the upper surface of the turntable body along the normal direction perpendicular to the contour line of the upper surface of the turntable body.
[0128] According to formula 6, combined , the characteristic size of the melt at the edge of the upper surface of the turntable body can be calculated by the following formula:
[0129] (Formula 7);
[0130] In addition, according to Formula 4, the intensity of the supergravity field formed on the edge of the upper surface of the turntable body can be calculated by the following formula:
[0131] (Formula 8);
[0132] Substituting Formula 8 into Formula 7, we can obtain Formula 1.
[0133] It should be noted that, for the turntable body having only the plane portion 131 in the third region, the first region 110, the second region 120 and the plane portion 131 are designed as flat surfaces, which may be parallel to the horizontal plane or not, and the angle between the flat surface and the horizontal plane is the specified angle. , .
[0134] Furthermore, when the flat surface is parallel to the horizontal plane, due to According to formula 1, we can get: , so it can be selected by , and Parameters:
[0135] a1. Determine the parameters , and ( Generally no more than 0.5 mm), Choose a suitable value between 1000-100000. Choose a suitable value between 30-120mm;
