Abstract: Disclosed is a method of predicting a failure probability of a brittle material in a high temperature creep state. Based on the prior art, assuming that an uniaxial creep failure strain obeys Weibull Distribution in combination with a natural attribute of random distribution of internal defects of the brittle material, a probability density distribution curve of the uniaxial creep failure strain is obtained by using an uniaxial creep test, and a probability density function of a multiaxial creep failure strain is obtained based on a conversion relationship of uniaxial and multiaxial creep failure strains and further a calculation model of a failure probability is obtained by integration; based on this, a prediction result of a failure probability of the brittle material in the high temperature creep state is obtained by writing a sub-program by using a Fortran language and embedding the sub-program into a finite element software in combination with a creep-damage constitutive equation.

Abstract: A design method for creep-fatigue strength of a plate-fin heat exchanger. The method includes preliminarily designing the plate-fin heat exchanger according to its service requirements, making a primary stress assessment for the plate-fin heat exchanger, calculating the equivalent mechanical and thermophysical parameters of the plate-fin heat exchanger core to satisfy the allowable stress requirement, performing a thermal fatigue analysis for the plate-fin heat exchanger based on these parameters and then calculating the fatigue life and creep life of the plate-fin heat exchanger to accomplish the comprehensive design of the plate-fin heat exchanger in the high-temperature service. The design method provides an effective method for the high temperature design of the plate-fin heat exchanger.

Abstract: The power control profile of a power amplifier circuit has improved linearity by supplying an exponential current source. The current source is an exponent function of the control voltage. There is obtained improved linearity of the power output vs control voltage profile for the power amplifier circuit. Advantageously, the exponential current source provides for a temperature compensated power amplifier circuit as well as the circuit having improved performance for variations in a power supply voltage.
