摘要:
In an example, a cubic press is described having press bases with spacers disposed between adjacent press bases. Sets of two or more tie bars are also disposed between adjacent press bases. The tie bars are placed in a state of compression while the spacers are placed in a state of compression. During operation, the press bases may become displaced relative to one another such that additional tension is experienced by the tie bars while the amount of compression experienced by the spacer is reduced. The tie bars exhibit a relatively small cross-sectional area as compared to the cross-sectional area of the spacer.
摘要:
A high-pressure high-temperature cell including two or more thermal insulation layers is described. A high-pressure high-temperature cell including a current path through a thermal insulation layer, the current path being electrically connected to a heating element and having an indirect path through the thermal insulation layer, is also described. High-pressure high-temperature press systems including the foregoing high-pressure high-temperature cells alone or in combination are also disclosed.
摘要:
A multichamber pressure-increasing device is comprised of a plurality of chambers disposed in series one inside the other, wherein the innermost chamber is configured so as to place objects or samples therein to subject them to ultra-high pressures. An external hydraulic pump pumps fluid into the outermost chamber while a plurality of elemental hydraulic motor pump systems (EHMPS) are mounted in each chamber for increasing the pressure from one chamber to the next one disposed more to the interior of the device through an iterative process, each EHMPS consisting of two cylinder-piston assemblies operatively joined together in such a way that both pistons extend or retract simultaneously within their respective cylinders, the motor part driving the pump part as pressurized fluid admitted into the motor cylinder is subsequently discharged so fluid admitted into the pumping part cylinder is compressed therein and impelled at a higher pressure into the succeeding chamber.
