The Effect Of Hot Dense Hydrogen And Argon In A Ballistic Compressor On The Structure And Composition Of Pure Iron, David Samuel Silver
The Effect Of Hot Dense Hydrogen And Argon In A Ballistic Compressor On The Structure And Composition Of Pure Iron, David Samuel Silver
Dissertations and Theses
An experimental study of pure iron foil exposed to a hot, dense hydrogen and argon gas mixture in a ballistic compressor yielded evidence of structural and compositional changes of the metal due to the presence of the hydrogen gas. Three iron foils have been compared, one of unexposed pure iron, another of pure iron exposed to a mixture of hydrogen and argon gas, and the third of pure iron exposed to argon alone. Exposure to these high temperature, high pressure gases took place in a ballistic compressor.
Line formations were found on the surface of the iron foil exposed to …
