MSE 227 Lab # (2)- Notched Bar Impact Testing of Materials
10/29/2012
Abstract :
The “Notched Bar Impact Testing of Materials” is an experiment that requires using of the Charpy Testing Machine. This experiment involves examining five samples of each of the 1018 steel and 2024 aluminum when placed under different conditions and temperatures for a certain amount of time. These specimens are later transferred to the charpy machine using a special tongue to place the specimens in the right position. Hence, this experiment gives knowledge about the width, impact energy and shear percentage of each of the samples.
Procedure :
1. Using a hammer and a punch, carefully label each specimen.
2. Measure and record the initial width for each of the different specimens. (Five of the 2024 aluminum and five of steel 1018).
3. Apply the impact test of each of the five 1018 steel samples, as well as the 2024 aluminum samples by placing them under different conditions and temperature. That is place the specimens in dry ice/acetone bath (at -79°C), anti-freeze/ water mix with some dry ice (-40°C), ice water (0°C), room temperature (23°C), and boiling water(100°C) for ten minutes.
4. Use the special tongs to remove the specimens and place them in the correct position, which is having a straight angle with the hammer. Record the impact energy.
5. Measure and record the lateral dimensions after impact.
6. Examine and analyze the fractures of each of the specimens and look for cleavage and shear, and approximate the fraction area of each.
Results and Discussions :
After doing the experiment “Notched Bar Impact Testing of Materials” and applying all the required conditions and tests it is shown that the initial width for both, Aluminum 2024 and steel 1018, were lower than the width measured after the reaction has taken place. The lateral dimensions for each of the steel and aluminum are presented in Tables 1.1 and 2.1 respectively.
Moreover, it is also recognized that after applying the impact test, the fracture energy for steel 1018 is higher than that of 2024 Aluminum. Also, it is shown that the shear percentages for the 2024 Aluminum is constant; while for the 1018 steel, it starts to increase as temperatures increases. The fracture energy values and the Shear percentages of the 1018 steel and 2024 aluminum are shown in Tables 1.2 and 2.2 respectively.
Additionally, the average values of steel 1018, as well as the lower and upper standard deviation values are shown in Table 1.3. While the values for the 2024 Aluminum are presented in table 2.3.
Furthermore, the variation of impact energy versus temperature for each of the 1018 steel and the 2024 aluminum are shown in graph 1.1. For the 2024 Aluminum, the variation of impact energy versus test temperature is approximately constant while the variation of impact energy versus temperature for steel 1018 starts constant and then starts to increase as temperature increases till 0°C, after that it becomes stable again. In addition, Graph 1.2 represents the changes in width versus Temperature for each of the 2024 Aluminum and 1018 Steel. As temperature increases, the change in width slightly decreases for aluminum 2024. While for 1018 steel, the change in width starts low, then when temperature reaches -40°C it starts to increase till reaching 0°C; after this temperature it starts to decrease slightly again.
Moreover, Graph 1.3 indicates the shear percentages versus test temperature for both the 2024 Aluminum and 1018 Steel. The shear percentage for aluminum remained constant under all the different temperatures that were used, while the shear percentage for steel increases as temperature increases. In addition, the average fracture energy, upper and lower standard deviation versus temperature for the 1018 steel and 2024 aluminum are displayed in graphs 1.4, and 1.5 respectively. The 1018 steel average fracture energy increases slowly as temperature increases while the fracture energy for aluminum remains approximately constant for all the temperatures used. The lower standard deviation for both steel and aluminum is almost stable. On the other hand, the upper standard deviation for steel increases while temperature increases till it reaches 0°C, then it starts decreasing between the 0°C and 20°C, till it increases again. On the other hand, the upper standard deviation for Aluminum increases as temperature increases till it reaches -40°C, these values decreases when the temperature ranges between -40°C and 20°C, then it increases again. Hence, the upper standard deviation for both steel and aluminum increases after the 20°C temperature.
