Influence of Solidification Conditions on TCP Phase Formation, Casting Porosity and High Temperature Mechanical Properties in a Re-Containing Nickel-Base Superalloy with Columnar Grain Structure
A coarse and a fine dendrite structure were produced using the newly developed DS-superalloy ExAl7 ( IN792 with 2-3 wt.-% Re) by changing the conditions of directional solidification. The two microstructures differed in their primary dendrite arm spacing by a factor of 1.6. During aging, very fine TCP phase precipitates (length approximately 20 m, volume fraction ~ 1 %) were precipitated in the...
متن کاملOn APFIM of Grain Boundaries in a Nickel Base Superalloy
Experimental details of atom probe field ion microscopy (APFIM) of a Ni-16Cr-9Fe alloy are presented. In particular, studies concerning analysis of intergranular carbides and borides and segregation to grain boundaries are described. It was found that NiZ3B6 precipitates are very sensitive to preferential field evaporation, which necessitates optimization of the analysis conditions. In the FIM ...
متن کاملDirectional Solidification Microstructure of a Ni-Based Superalloy: Influence of a Weak Transverse Magnetic Field
A Ni-based superalloy CMSX-6 was directionally solidified at various drawing speeds (5–20 μm·s−1) and diameters (4 mm, 12 mm) under a 0.5 T weak transverse magnetic field. The results show that the application of a weak transverse magnetic field significantly modified the solidification microstructure. It was found that if the drawing speed was lower than 10 μm·s−1, the magnetic field caused ex...
متن کاملNear-congruent solidification of castings
Chaput Kevin J. Ph.D., Purdue University, May 2015. Near-Congruent Solidification of Castings. Major Professor: Kevin Trumble. A study on the microstructure development of as-cast Cu-Mn alloys based around the congruent minimum at 34.6 wt % Mn and 873 oC was performed. Initially, this was to evaluate the alloy as an alternative to wide freezing range Pb and Sn bronzes that are plagued with poro...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Freckle Predictor via Rayleigh Number Method for Single-Crystal Nickel-Base Superalloy Castings
A Rayleigh number based criterion is developed for predicting the formation of freckles in Ni-base superalloy castings. This criterion relies on finding the maximum local Rayleigh number in the mush, where the ratio of the driving buoyancy force to the retarding frictional force is the largest. A critical Rayleigh number for freckle formation of approximately 0.25 is found from available experi...
