摘要:Based on previous work,the creep behavior of Al-0.2Sc-0.04Zr alloys at 300℃after different cold-rolling and ageing treatments was investigated.It is found that the creep behavior of Al-0.2Sc-0.04Zr alloys belongs to the creep behavior of the secondary phase precipitate-strengthening materials,meanwhile,the threshold stress exists during creep,furthermore,the combination treatment of cold-rolling and ageing can increase the high temperature creep resistance.Although a better tensile strength can be obtained by pre-ageing+cold-rolling+re-ageing for the alloy,much better creep resistance at high temperature can be obtained by cold-rolling+ageing for the alloy.Microstructure observation reveals that the improvement of creep resistance of Al-0.2Sc-0.04Zr alloys at high temperature is relevant with the grain refinement,the formation and distribution of coherent Al3(Sc,Zr)precipitates.
摘要:AZ31B magnesium alloy ingots were prepared by spraying water towards the bottom ingot and holding at side face of the ingot using a heating-furnace.The solidification structure of magnesium alloy was modified through changing the melt superheating temperature,and effects of grain size and shape on ambient mechanical properties of AZ31B magnesium alloy were analyzed.The results show that the columnar crystals are generated at the bottom and the equiaxed crystal is at other location of ingot prepared using the method.Meanwhile,the structure exhibits dense with absence of shrinkage porosities(holes).With melt superheating temperature increased from 720℃to 900℃,the length and spacing of columnar crystals are decreased from 0.8mm to 0.1mm,and from 0.7mm to 0.2mm,respectively.The equiaxed crystal size is decreased from 0.8mm to 0.1mm at 130mm position apart from the ingot bottom.The ambient tensile strength and plasticity are improved with decreasing in the equiaxed crystal size,especially for the plasticity.When the tension direction is perpendicular to the axial direction of columnar crystals,the tensile strength and elongation of the samples are obviously decreased compared with the equiaxed crystal.The ambient compression properties of magnesium alloy are increased with the decrease of the columnar crystal spacing.Under the same columnar crystal spacing conditions,the compression properties of perpendicular to columnar crystal axial direction are better than that of parallel to columnar crystal axial direction.
摘要:Aiming at the poor surface conditions of the strips produced by single-roll casting and a slower speed and limited applicable alloys in conventional twin-roll casting,a new method of top side-pouring twin-roll casting process was proposed to overcome those disadvantages.Al-10Cu alloy strip with 100mm in width and 1.7~2.0mm in thickness as well as several meters long was produced successfully,and the casting speed could reach up to 60m/min.The surface quality and microstructure of the Al-10Cu strip produced were observed by OM(optical microscope),SEM(scanning electron microscope).The results show that the top side-pouring twin roll casting process can produce those alloys strips which cannot be produced by conventional twin roll casting,and the profile and surfaces of the strip exhibit desirable with ignorable defects,and the microstructure is fine and homogeneous with absence of observable segregation.In order to understand the behavior of the molten metal during casting,a numerical simulation was conducted using the ANSYS Fluent,and the results verified the experimental ones.

摘要:The equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) for 7075aluminum alloy was simulated with different friction factors using the finite element software DEFORM-3D.The pressing load,deformation rate as well as effective stress and strain distribution were analyzed,and the change of microstructure of7075aluminum alloy during ECAP was predicted using the dynamic recrystallization model.The results show that,with the increase of the friction factor,the peak load is significantly increased and even grow exponentially accompanying with the sharp fluctuation of load.Besides,the"end effect"of sample is weakened and the effective stress and strain distribution exhibit uneven.The grains of the stable deformation zone in the central of sample are constantly refined with the extrusion passes increases,and the fine grain area is generated in the sample contact with the channel.In addition,the grains of the stable deformation zone with frictional coeffiaent of 0.4are finer than those with 0.1after four passes extrusion.

摘要:Through adjusting gating-riser system,pre-heating temperature of mold shell,holding ways of mold shell and pouring temperature of thinned-slender grain-fined blade for low pressure turbine,effects of processing parameters and gating-riser system on cold-shut,misrun,grain size and shrinkage porosity in the alloy blades were analzyed.The results reveal that with pre-heating temperature of mold shell more than 1 150 ℃,gain size in the blades becomes coarse,while pre-heating temperature of 1100℃and pouring temperature of 1 450 ℃,misrun and cold shut defects in the blades can be often observed.With pre-heating temperature of 1 100 ℃and pouring temperature of 1 500 ℃,misrun,cold shut and grain coarseness in the blades can be eliminated effectively.In addiiton,through modifying gating-riser system,shrinkage porosity in the blades can be avoided.
摘要:The temperature field and flow field of high temperature melt in the nozzle in the casting-rolling copper process were simulated by the ANSYS software.The results reveal that at a fixed castingrolling temperature,with the increase of casting speed,the solidification position of roll-casting billets is gradually shift to right,and the flow uniformity is increased.However,the over-high rolling speed is harmful for forming of roll-casting billet and roll of the plate.At a given roll-casting speed,with the increase of pouring temperature,roll-casting billet solidification position is shifted to right gradually,however effects on the flow field distribution can be ignored.The optimized processing parameters were presented as follows:roll casting temperature of 1 150 ℃~1 170 ℃and roll casting speed of 600 mm/min~1 000 mm/min.Based on the optimized parameters,the T2 copper continuous roll casting slab was formed successfully.

摘要:With different solution temperature and holding time,the microstructure evolution and microhardness of AZ91D magnesium alloys containing SiC particles were investigated.The results show that the continuous net-likeβphase in initial as-cast ingot disappears gradually with the increase of solution temperature,accompanying with the fragmentation of Mg2Si phase with Chinese script morphology,and spheroidization rate is increased.The grain boundary becomes distinct with the solution temperature of 400 ℃.With solid solution treatment at 400 ℃ for 16h,the unstableβphase is almost dissolved into the matrix phase and the spheroidization of Mg2Si phase exhibits desirable.However,the change of morphology of Al8Mn5 phase can not be observed due to its high decomposition temperature.After solid solution at 400 ℃ for 20h,the spheroidization trend is weakened and the primary grain is coarsened greatly.The value of micro-hardness is decreased continuously as a result of the disappearance ofβphase and spheroidization of Mg2Si phase,while a slight increase of the micro-hardness for the sample at 400℃ for 16h can be observed due to solution strengthening.

摘要:Ultrasonic was imposed on 7085 aluminum alloy melt during solidification to measure the temperature change in the melt caused by ultrasonic,and the temperature fluctuation in the melt occurs.Effects of the temperature fluctuation on undercooling nucleation in the aluminum alloy melt were investigated.The results show that cavitation bubbles caused by ultrasonic absorb heat during growth process to decrease the temperature around cavitation bubbles,while heat is released to increase the temperature around when cavitation bubbles collapse.In the experiment,the amplitude of temperature fluctuation is in range of 2~6℃,leading to the initial nucleation temperature increased from 638.4 ℃ to 644.5 ℃.Within the undercooling nucleation region,the temperature fluctuation can enhance the local undercooling degree and increases the maximum nucleation density from 47.1/mm3 to 92.6mm3.In the process of dendrite growth,the temperature fluctuation makes the necking-down dendrite side arm easier to detach,which increases new nucleus in the melt.
