The grain boundary segregation and microstructures of the ingots, which manufactured by conventional HDC casting and low frequency electromagnetic HDC casting were compared. Results show that low frequency electromagnetic field significantly refines the microstructures and reduces grain boundary segregation. Decreasing electromagnetic frequency or increasing electromagnetic intensity has great effects in reducing grain boundary segregation. Meanwhile, the governing mechanisms were discussed.展开更多

Based on the deformation behavior and microstructural evolution of superalloy GH4742, different types of instability criteria of Prasad, Gegel, Malas, Murty and Semiatin were compared, and the physical significance of parameters was analyzed. Meanwhile, the processing maps with different instability criteria were obtained. It was shown that instability did not occur when average power dissipation rate was larger than 50% in the temperature range of 1020- 1130℃, corresponding to the strain rate range of 5 × 10-4-3.2 × 10-3 s-1. The domain is appropriate for the processing deformation of superalloy GH4742.展开更多

The constitutive equation was developed on the basis of experimental data. Power dissipation efficiency (η) and instability parameter (4) maps were evaluated using the principles of the dynamic material model. Furthermore, the EBSD microstructure analysis was performed for validation, revealing that η was closely associated with the mechanism of dynamic recrystallization (DRX). Microstructure transition map was composed of contour plots of η, 4, and DRX. The DRX domain zones and instable zones were identified in the processing map and were classified based on η. In a view of microstructure refinement and workability improvement, the optimum processing should be selected in the temperature range of 970-1025 ~C and the strain rate range of 0.08-0.01 s^-1.展开更多

It was found that the bulging of original grain boundaries was inhibited by carbides and deformation twins at the boundaries. Recrystallized nuclei evolved from the subgrains of dislocation re- configuration along original grain boundaries, and the growth of the potential nuclei was carried out by the coalescence of subgrains. The necklace structure of recrys- tallized grains along original grain boundaries was attributed to the strain gradient from grain boundary to grain interior.展开更多
