Steam reforming system has been developed for the treatment of organic wastes which are not suitable materials (halogenated oil) for the incineration due to generation of corrosive compounds and plugging materials. The refractory material is cast inside the main reactor, which is a part of the steam reforming system. Since the surface of this refractory material has deteriorated over time, the main reactor was replaced. If the refractory material surface of the used main reactor can be repaired, the used main reactor can be reused as a spare. The refractory material surface was repaired using two types of repair materials ("S" and "P"). Combustion tests were conducted on samples simulating organic wastes to evaluate each repair material. As a result of the combustion test, it was concluded that the repair of the main reactor was possible to use the repair material "P" because no cracks or flakes were observed.

Times Cited Count:1 Percentile:20.34(Engineering, Mechanical)To predict fracture behavior for ductile materials, some ductile fracture simulation methods different from classical approaches have been investigated based on appropriate models of ductile fracture. For the future use of the methods to overcome restrictions of classical approaches, the applicability to the actual components is of concern. In this study, two benchmark problems on the fracture tests supposing actual components were provided to investigate prediction ability of simulation methods containing parameter decisions. One was the circumferentially through-wall and surface cracked pipes subjected to monotonic bending, and the other was the circumferentially through-wall cracked pipes subjected to cyclic bending. Participants predicted the ductile crack propagation behavior by their own approaches, including FEM employed GTN yielding function with void ratio criterion, are FEM employed GTN yielding function, FEM with fracture strain or energy criterion modified by stress triaxiality, XFEM with J or delta J criterion, FEM with stress triaxiality and plastic strain based ductile crack propagation using FEM, and elastic-plastic peridynamics. Both the deformation and the crack propagation behaviors for monotonic bending were well reproduced, while few participants reproduced those for cyclic bending. To reproduce pipe deformation and fracture behaviors, most of groups needed parameters which were determined toreproduce pipe deformation and fracture behaviors in benchmark problems themselves and it is still difficult to reproduce them by using parameters only from basic materials tests.
