Powder metallurgy is a process that involves consolidating metal powders into a dense solid material through compaction and sintering. It allows for precise control over material composition and properties not achievable through conventional melting and casting. Parts are made through three main steps - powder production, compaction into a green compact, and sintering to strengthen bonds. This economical process is used for mass production of parts with close tolerances, including those with complex shapes that would be difficult to machine.
Powder Metallurgy or PM is a process of producing components or materials from powders made of metal. Different geometries can be obtained by this process. This may also include non metal powders. PM or Powder Metallurgy reduces the metal removal process to obtain a desired structure, reduces yield loss while manufacturing and cut down cost.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.
2. Definition of Powder Metallurgy
• Powder metallurgy may defined as, “the
art and science of producing metal
powders and utilizing them to make
serviceable objects.”
OR
• It may also be defined as “material
processing technique used to consolidate
particulate matter i.e. powders both metal
and/or non-metals.”
3. Importance of P/M:
• The methods of powder metallurgy have
permitted the attainment of compositions and
properties not possible by the conventional
methods of melting and casting.
• Powder metallurgy is an alternative,
economically viable mass production method
for structural components to very close
tolerance.
• Powder metallurgy techniques produce some
parts which can’t be made by any other
method.
4. • The process of P/M is the process of producing
metallic parts from metallic powders of a single
metal, of several metals or of a combination of
metals and non-metals by applying pressure.
The powders are mixed mechanically,
compacted into a particular shape and then
heated at elevated temperature below the
melting point of the main constituent.
5. POWDER METALLURGY:
• Powder metallurgy is a forming and fabrication
technique consisting of three major processing
stages.
• First, the primary material is physically powdered,
divided into many small individual particles.
• Next, the powder is injected into a mold or passed
through a die to produce a weakly cohesive
structure (via cold welding) very near the
dimensions of the object ultimately to be
manufactured.
• Finally, the end part is formed by applying
pressure, high temperature, long setting times
during which self-welding occurs.
6. Process of Powder Metallurgy:
The process of P/M in general consists of a series of
steps/stages to form a final shape. These stages are shown by a
simple flow sheet diagram.
Powder Production
Powder Characterization & testing
Mixing - Blending
Processing - Compacting
Sintering Operation
Finishing Operations
Finished P/M Parts
7. * Powder Metallurgy (P/M) is an improved alternative
method as compared to Industrial Metallurgy (I/M) being
more economical for large production series with
precision of design and savings of energy, material and
labor. Further it is a unique method for producing cermets,
cutting tools, nuclear fuel elements, self- lubricating
bearing, copper-graphite brushes etc.
15. Basic Steps In Powder Metallurgy
•Powder Production
•Blending or Mixing
•Powder Consolidation
•Sintering
•Finishing
16. 1. Powder Production
• Many methods: extraction from compounds, deposition,
atomization, fiber production, mechanical powder
production, etc.
• Atomization is the dominant process
• Water or gas atomization
19. Blending or Mixing
• Blending a coarser fraction with a finer fraction ensures
that the interstices between large particles will be filled
out.
• Powders of different metals and other materials may be
mixed in order to impart special physical and
mechanical properties through metallic alloying.
• Lubricants may be mixed to improve the powders’ flow
characteristics.
• Binders such as wax or thermoplastic polymers are
added to improve green strength.
• Sintering aids are added to accelerate densification on
heating.
20. Compaction
• Usually gravity filled cavity at room temperature
• Pressed at 100-9 MPa
• Produces a “Green” compact
– Size and shape of finished part (almost)
– Not as strong as finished part – handling concern
• Friction between particles is a major factor
21. Sintering
• Parts are heated to 0.7~0.9 Tm.
• Transforms compacted mechanical bonds to much
stronger metallic bonds.
• Shrinkage always occurs:
22. Advantages of P/M for Structural Components:
These may be classified into two main headings;
(a) Cost advantages, and
(b) Advantages due to particular properties of sintered components.
Cost Advantages:
(i) Zero or minimal scrap;
(ii) Avoiding high machining cost in mass production as irregularly
shaped holes, flats, counter bores, involute gear teeth, key-ways
can be molded into the components;
(iii) Extremely good surface finish at very low additional cost after
sizing and coining;
(iv) very close tolerance without a machining operation;
(v) Assembly of two or more parts (by I/M) can be made in one
piece;
(vi) Separate parts can be combined before sintering.
(vii) High production rates
23. Advantages due to the particular properties of
sintered components.
(i) By achieving up to 95% density, the mechanical and
physical properties are comparable with cast materials
and in certain cases with wrought materials. In certain
cases 99.9 % dense structure can be obtained (liquid
phase sintering);
(ii) Damping out vibrations and noise property with
controlled residual porosity;
(iii) Ability to retain lubricants such as lead, graphite and
oil giving less wear and longer life to bearings;
(iv) Achieving a close control of porosity to give a
specified balance between strength and lubrication
properties (a superiority over wrought materials);
24. Limitations of P/M Process
There are numbers of limitations of Powder
Metallurgy process as given below:
(i) In general, the principal limitations of the process are
those imposed by the size and shape of the part, the
compacting pressure required and the material used.
(ii) The process is capital intensive and initial high costs
mean that the production ranges in excess of 10,000
are necessary for economic viability (cost of dies is
very high).
(iii) The configuration of the component should be such
that it can be easily formed and ejected from a die,
undercuts and re-entrant angles can not be molded
(when using conventional pressing and sintering) and
have to be machined subsequently.
