The microstructure is much different fxom other ferritic steels with the same composition and prepared via only mechanically alloyed powder. A bi-modal structure, which consists of pure ferritic grains and martensitic grains, was obtained after hot forging and air cooling. A phase transformation of αbcc→γfcc→α'bcc was also discovered in microstructural observation. The bi-modal microstructure shows a good combination of high strength and high ductility.展开更多
The influence of chemical composition and cold deformation on aging precipitation behavior of 18Cr-16Mn-2Mo-I.IN (HNS-A), 18Cr-16Mn-I.3N (HNS-B), 18Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.96N (HNS-C) and 18Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.77N (I-INS-D) h...The influence of chemical composition and cold deformation on aging precipitation behavior of 18Cr-16Mn-2Mo-I.IN (HNS-A), 18Cr-16Mn-I.3N (HNS-B), 18Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.96N (HNS-C) and 18Cr-18Mn-2Mo-0.77N (I-INS-D) high nitrogen austenitic stainless steels was investigated. The results show that the "nose" temperatures and incubation periods of the initial time-temperature-precipitation (TTP) curves of aged HNSs are found to be 850 ℃, 60 s; 850 ℃, 45 s; 850 ℃, 60 s and 900 ℃, 90 s, respectively. Based on the analysis of SAD patterns, the coarse cellular Cr2N precipitate which presents a lamellar structure has a hexagonal structure of a=0.478 nm and c=0.444 nm. The Z phase corresponding to a composition of Fe36Cr^2Mo10, is determined to be a body-centered cubic structure ofa=0.892 nm. The precipitating sensitivity presents no more difference with the nitrogen content increasing from 0.77% to 0.96%, but exhibits so obviously that the cellular precipitates nearly overspread the whole field. The addition of Mo element can restrain the TTP curves moving left and down, which means decreasing the sensitivity of aging precipitation. With increasing the cold deformation, the sensitivity of precipitation increases obviously.展开更多

The ...The risk during construction and in the operation of the underground gas storage (UGS) was analyzed. One of most important risk which should be prevented is large deformation or destruction of the steel lining. The specific deformation of the steel lining needs to be inside the acceptable value. This paper presents lined rock cavern (LRC) concept and specific deformations, which can occur under operation of underground gas storage. Analysis is performed with different (3D model and axis symmetrical) FEM models and analytical model. We made a comparison between analytical calculation and FEM calculation. Concrete wall is mechanically not regarded as reinforced concrete structure which means that concrete will crack. Finally, we determined the minimum value of Young's modulus, which satisfies the condition of maximum deformation of steel lining.展开更多

The application of this process technique effectively solves the problem of welding stress release in tuyere block assembling and welding without increasing the number of turns of the blocks and overhead welding, thus avoiding possible structural deformation due to excessive accumulation of internal welding stress, greatly reducing the repeated deformation and correction work during assembling and welding, and ensuring the weld seam quality and overall dimensions of tuvere blocks of Taizhou Bridze.展开更多

The final microstructure determines the required mechanical properties such as high formability, high toughness and adequate strength. For this reason it is relevant to identify and determine the volume fraction of the ferrite, bainite and martensite present in the structure. The microalloying elements: V, Nb and Ti promote carbides precipitation during cooling. The precipitates control the grain size refinement during hot rolling process and the mechanical properties of the steel. In this sense it is necessary to increase the knowledge on the microstructure evolution at different cooling rates. In this paper, the results obtained on two low carbon microalloyed steels (with C contents between 0.11%-0.06%) are reported. An integrated methodology including dilatometry in combination with microscopy techniques was applied. By EBSD (Electron Backscatter Diffraction) technique and microhardness measurements, the structural study was completed. Through a thermodynamic simulation using Fact Sage the type of precipitates in the studied steels structure at the temperature range between 950 ℃ and 450 ℃, were predicted. The information on the evolution of the steel structure at rolling process conditions is relevant to consider changes in processing conditions.展开更多
