The disclosure relates to a device and a method for testing material properties in a field of testing mechanical properties of a metal material, and more particularly, to an in-situ heating testing device and a high-throughput testing method for the mechanical properties of the metal material under a high rotation speed and a high temperature.
National standards, such as “Creep-Fatigue Test Methods for Metal Materials” of GB/T 38822-2020 and “Inspection of Static Uniaxial Testing Machines Part 1: Inspection and Calibration of Force Measuring Systems of Tensile and/or Compression Testing Machines” of GB/T6825.1-2008 all specify test methods for the mechanical properties of metal materials. On the one hand, test environments specified in the standards are all 1G (G=9.8 m/s2), which may meet the research on the mechanical properties of the metal materials themselves. On the other hand, the testing standards may only test the mechanical properties of materials under one condition at a time, which results in low test efficiency and high cost. However, with implementation of the materials genome project and the two-machine special projects, as well as urgency of research and development tasks for key components of turbine propulsion systems such as aircraft engines, aerospace engines, industrial and ship gas turbines, automotive and train turbochargers, such as compressor blades, fan blades, turbine working blades, etc., especially materials of the system components are in a high-speed rotation state during normal operation, that is, a service environment is usually a centrifugal supergravity environment.
A turbine propulsion system is usually a turbine power device that converts heat energy after fuel combustion into mechanical energy through guide blades on the working blades through thermal expansion to drive a turbine. A turbocharger is a power device that converts waste heat of the engine into mechanical energy by utilizing thermal expansion of exhaust gas of a diesel (gasoline) engine on the turbine. When in service, the turbine blades of these power devices rotate at a high speed around an engine axis, and a function thereof is to expand combustion gas for power, converting potential energy and thermal energy of the combustion gas into mechanical power of a rotor. Therefore, loads borne by the turbine blades during service include aerodynamic force, centrifugal force, and thermal load. The centrifugal force generated by high-speed rotation is a volume force, which mainly causes radial tensile stress in the blades. For blades with torsional structures, torsional stress will also be generated. If a stacking line of the blade does not completely coincide with a radial line, the centrifugal force will also cause bending stress in the blades. Thermal stress generated by the thermal load is closely related to temperature gradients and geometric constraints of the blades. The greater the temperature gradients of the blades, the greater the thermal stress.
However, data of mechanical properties of key materials currently used to design the turbine blades of the turbine propulsion systems all come from endurance, creep, fatigue, and other testing machines under 1G conditions, which obtain the data of mechanical properties of materials under static, uniaxial stress states by testing standard specimens. Although the data of the mechanical properties of the standard specimens may provide a design basis for a strength design of turbine blades in the turbine propulsion systems to a certain extent, due to a complex geometric shape of the blades and a complex stress state thereof being different from those of the standard specimens, the data of the material mechanical properties obtained by the standard specimens do not take into account the impact of high rotation speed, blade geometry, etc. on structural reliability thereof and may not be directly used to evaluate the service life of turbine blades.
In view of shortcomings of the current static mechanical property testing of metal materials under 1G, the lack of in-situ heating devices and intelligent temperature controlling technologies suitable for the mechanical property testing of metal materials under a high rotation speed and a high temperature, and the urgent need for high-throughput mechanical property testing of metal materials in the research and development of new materials, the disclosure provides a device that may apply in-situ heating to metal materials in a high-speed rotation environment and a method based on the in-situ heating device that is suitable for the high-throughput mechanical property testing of the metal materials under high-rotation speed and high-temperature effects, which solves key issues of in-situ heating and temperature control in the mechanical property testing of the metal materials under a high rotation speed and a high temperature, and solves the current issues of low efficiency and high cost of the mechanical property testing of the metal materials, which is a device that may apply in-situ heating to the metal materials in a the-speed rotation environment and intelligent temperature control, and a high-throughput testing method for the mechanical properties of the metal materials.
The in-situ heating of the metal materials in the high-speed rotation environment described in the disclosure means that during the mechanical property testing of the metal material or component, the high-speed rotating test material or component is always in an in-situ heating state until the test is completed.
The high temperature described in the disclosure means that a heating temperature applied to a designated area of a sample during the experiment is not less than 500° C., and the duration of the in-situ heating is not less than the test time.
The high rotation speed described in the disclosure means that a maximum rotation speed of the centrifugal machine during the experiment is not less than 5000 rpm.

Second type: The material types of the test samples 1.1 are different, and the mass of the mass blocks 1.1.1 is the same.
During the test of the mechanical properties of the materials, if the test sample 1.1 is installed according to the first type, due to the different mass of the mass blocks 1.1.1, centrifugal tensile stress applied to the test sample 1.1 is different at the same rotation speed, so that the mechanical properties of the material under both the same temperature and different stress may be tested in one test.

Specifically, a constant and uniform temperature field is applied according to a uniform temperature heating mode, a periodically changing alternating temperature field is applied according to a periodically changing alternating temperature heating mode, and a temperature field with a fixed range and a gradually changing gradient is applied according to a temperature gradient heating mode.
Seventh step: The centrifugal machine is started, so that the main shaft of the centrifugal machine rotates and reaches the rotation speed corresponding to the centrifugal stress.
In the seventh step, the centrifugal machine is started to rotate the main shaft of the centrifugal machine. Specifically, the rotation speed is adjusted, so that different centrifugal tensile stress is applied to different positions of the test sample 1.1 along a direction of the centrifugal force, or a constant stress oi load is applied to different positions of the test sample 1.1 along the direction of the centrifugal force.
Eighth step: The temperature and the rotation speed is kept unchanged until the test sample 1.1 is pulled and broken.
During a process from when the main shaft of the centrifugal machine starts to rotate to when the test sample 1.1 is pulled and broken, data of the temperature changes and the stress changes are collected in real time through the temperature-controlling thermocouple 4.1 and the strain gauge as data for the high-throughput testing.
Ninth step: After the test sample 1.1 is pulled and broken, the induction heating system 2 and the temperature controlling system 4 are turned off, the centrifugal machine is powered off, and the test sample 1.1 is air-cooled to a room temperature.
The specific embodiment in the disclosure provides a variety of in-situ heating system modes for the high-throughput testing in a high-rotation speed environment, providing new experimental conditions for conducting tests of material properties under different temperatures and different speeds.

First heating mode: The uniform temperature heating mode is implemented on the standard section 1.1.2 of the test sample 1.1 at a high rotation speed,
The experimental material type is the same. During the experiment, a distance h between the standard section 1.1.2 and the upper induction coil 2.1 and the lower induction coil 2.5 remains the same, and the heating power and heating frequency remain unchanged during time t. The constant and uniform temperature field is applied to the standard section 1.1.2.
Second heating mode: The periodically changing alternating temperature heating mode is implemented on the standard section 1.1.2 of the test sample 1.1 at a high rotation speed,
The experimental material type is the same. During the experiment, the distance h between the standard section 1.1.2 and the upper induction coil 2.1 and the lower induction coil 2.5 remains the same. The heating frequency remains unchanged, but the heating power is changed periodically during the time t. The alternating temperature field of T1 is applied to the standard section 1.1.2 during the time t1, and T2 is applied during time t2.
Third heating mode: A constant temperature gradient heating mode is implemented on the standard section 1.1.2 of the test sample 1.1 at a high rotation speed,
The experimental material type is the same. The standard segment 1.1.2 of the test sample 1.1 is processed into an arc with a radius of R. During the experiment, the distance h between a lowest end of the arc of the standard segment 1.1.2 and the upper induction coil 2.1 and the lower induction coil 2.5 remains the same, and the heating power and the heating frequency remain unchanged during the time t. Since the distance from the arc-shaped standard section 1.1.2 to the induction coil 2.1 and the lower induction coil 2.5 changes continuously, according to principles of induction heating, under the same power and frequency conditions, the sample heating temperature is inversely proportional to the distance from the induction coil, thereby applying a constant temperature gradient to the standard section 1.1.2 of the test sample 1.1.
Based on the above heating modes, when the experimental material type is the same, and the weight of the mass block 1.1.1 is the same, the disclosure, in the process of implementing the high-throughput test of the mechanical properties of the metal materials, includes, but is not limited to the following situations.
First type of high-throughput test experiment: The test sample 1.1 adopts the structure shown in
During the experiment, a constant temperature load is applied to the test sample 1.1, and different centrifugal tensile stress is applied to different positions of the test sample 1.1 along the direction of the centrifugal force, so that the sample under the effect of the high rotation speed and high temperature is always under the load effect (T, σi) (i refers to a cross section of the sample corresponding to a distance i from a centrifuge shaft, which is the same below). After the experiment, through analytical methods such as scanning electron microscopy and mechanical property testing methods such as nanoindentation, a relationship between the structure and properties of the sample under different (T, σi) load effects are analyzed and characterized to implement the high-throughput testing of the metal material properties under a high rotation speed and high temperature, which is used to study a relationship between the structure and properties of the materials under the constant temperature and different stress states.
Second type high-throughput test experiment: The test sample 1.1 adopts the structure shown in
During the experiment, an alternating temperature load is applied to the test sample 1.1, and different centrifugal tensile stress is applied to different positions of the test sample 1.1 along the direction of the centrifugal force, so that the sample under the effect of the high rotation speed and high temperature is always under the (Ti, σi) load effect. After the experiment, through analytical methods such as scanning electron microscopy and mechanical property testing methods such as nanoindentation, a relationship between the structure and properties of the sample under different (Ti, σi) load effects are analyzed and characterized to implement the high-throughput testing of the metal material properties under a high rotation speed and high temperature, which is used to study a relationship between the fixed stress σi of the cross section i of sample and the structure and properties of the materials under alternating temperature conditions.
The third type of high-throughput test experiment:
The test sample 1.1 adopts the structure shown in
During the experiment, the constant temperature load Ti and the constant stress σi load are applied to the cross section i of the test sample 1.1, so that the cross section i of the test sample 1.1 under the high rotation speed and high temperature is always under the constant (Ti, σi) load effect. After the experiment, through analytical methods such as scanning electron microscopy and mechanical property testing methods such as nanoindentation, a relationship between the structure and properties of the sample under different (Ti, σi) load effects are analyzed and characterized to implement the high-throughput testing of the metal material properties under a high rotation speed and high temperature, which is used to study the fixed stress σi of the cross section i of sample and the structure and properties of the materials under the state at the constant temperature Ti.
