Origine de l’éclatement de grain sur des pièces forgées en Inconel 718 / Origin of inhomogeneous grain growth in Inconel 718 forgingsAgnoli, Andrea 19 December 2013 (has links)
L'Inconel 718 est un superalliage base nickel très utilisé pour produire les disques de turboréacteurs. Typiquement, une gamme de forgeage à chaud se compose de plusieurs étapes de déformation et de recuit. La présence des particules de seconde phase (particules de phase delta dans l'Inconel 718) permet en principe de limiter la croissance de grains pendant les étapes de recuit grâce au phénomène d'ancrage de Zener. Néanmoins, l'hétérogénéité microstructurale (distribution des particules, écrouissage, composition chimique) peut favoriser une croissance anormale des grains pendant le recuit. Ce phénomène est connu industriellement sous la terminologie d'"éclatement de grains". Les objectifs de la thèse étaient d'identifier les mécanismes responsables de l'éclatement des grains qui peut survenir durant les étapes de recuit sur les pièces forgées en Inconel 718, de les modéliser, et de simuler numériquement le phénomène. Les mécanismes physiques à l'origine du phénomène sont d'abord étudiés expérimentalement grâce à la caractérisation (par MEB et EBSD) des pièces forgées. L'influence des particules de seconde phase et de l'énergie stockée (estimée par des mesures de désorientations intragranulaires) est notamment étudiée. A partir des observations réalisées, une explication est proposée : le phénomène apparaît lorsque les forces motrices pour la migration des joints de grains dépassent la force de freinage de Zener ; ceci peut se produire lorsque la microstructure contient de l'énergie stockée, distribuée de manière hétérogène. Des essais de torsion à chaud sont mis en place pour reproduire, en laboratoire, le même phénomène, étudier la sensibilité aux paramètres thermomécaniques, et tester les hypothèses émises concernant les mécanismes. Les mécanismes ainsi identifiés comme responsables de l'éclatement de grains sont enfin simulés au moyen d'un modèle numérique en 2D. Le modèle numérique en champ complet est basé sur la méthode des éléments finis, et utilise le formalisme level-set pour décrire les joints de grains. La simulation de l'évolution microstructurale prend en compte à la fois les forces motrices des joints de grains liées à la capillarité et à l'énergie stockée, et l'interaction des joints de grains avec les particules de seconde phase. Ainsi, l'effet de la distribution de l'énergie stockée (estimée à partir de données expérimentales) a pu être étudié numériquement dans des microstructures avec particules. / Inconel 718 is a nickel base superalloy commonly used to manufacture the rotating disks of turbojet engines. Such disks are generally produced by hot forging, which involves a sequence of different deformation and annealing steps. The presence of second phase particles (delta phase in Inconel 718) is commonly exploited to limit grain growth during annealing via the Zener pinning phenomenon. Nonetheless, microstructure heterogeneity (with regards to second phase particles, hardening, texture and chemical composition) can lead to inhomogeneous grain growth during annealing. The objectives of this PhD work were to understand, model and simulate numerically the phenomenon of inhomogeneous grain growth that can occur in Inconel 718 turbine disks during the annealing steps of hot forging sequences. The physical mechanisms which may explain the occurrence of the phenomenon are investigated experimentally by performing SEM and EBSD analyses of Inconel 718 industrial pieces. The focus is placed on the influence of second phase particles and strain energy (estimated from intragranular misorientations) on the occurrence of the phenomenon. From those observations, it is inferred that the phenomenon occurs when the grain boundary driving forces overcome the Zener pinning forces; this is achieved when stored energy is present and heterogeneously distributed. Moreover, hot torsion tests are carried out to reproduce the phenomenon in laboratory, to evaluate its sensibility to thermomechanical parameters and to test the previously postulated mechanism. The validity of this mechanism is finally demonstrated by modelling numerically the phenomenon in 2D. The full field numerical model is based on a level set description of the grain boundaries in a finite element context. Microstructure evolution is simulated explicitly taking into account Zener pinning, capillarity and stored energy driven grain growth in a single framework. The effect of strain stored energy distributions (estimated from experimental data) in pinned microstructures is investigated focusing on the conditions leading to inhomogeneous grain growth.

The effect of recycling and processing routes on recrystallization in a secondary 3xxx aluminium alloyRolseth, Anton January 2023 (has links)
Aluminium alloys have the possibility to be infinitely recycled. By only generating 5% of the emissions compared to primary aluminium, great CO2 savings can be made. One of the issues in manufacturing components entirely from post-consumer scrap is the presence of trace elements and impurities. Such elements can be Fe, Cu, Cr, P and Pb. In sheet metal manufacturing, these elements can also react with process agents such as Ti, B, Na and Sr and affect the recrystallization behavior and in turn mechanical properties.In this work, a derivative of the 3003 alloy made entirely from post-consumer scrap has been analysed. The alloy achieved insufficient formability due to lack of recrystallization and grain growth. With the use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) together with focused ion beam (FIB) lamella preparation, the microstructure was characterized.The characterization shows both larger particles of α-Al15Si2M4 (M=Mn,Fe,Cr) from solidification and dispersoids from heat treatment, pinning the grain boundary movement together with Q-AlCuMgSi. With the use of high throughput computational thermodynamics, Thermo-Calc was used to effectively screen compositions lowering the amount of α-Al15Si2M4 and removing the Q-AlCuMgSi phase. The new alloy was cast using directional solidification at different cooling rates to study the particle morphology, which in turn plays a role in the particle break up and distribution during cold working as the interparticle spacing affects the grain growth.Varying cooling rates was seen to affect morphology and distribution. Hot compression was utilized to examine the particle redistribution before cold work. It was however shown that hot compression was not sufficient in redistributing the particles as would be the case in rolling.

Effects of combined Zr and Mn additions on the microstructure and properties of AA2198 sheetTsivoulas, Dimitrios January 2011 (has links)
The effect of individual and combined zirconium and manganese additions have been compared for an AA2198 6 mm thick sheet in T351 temper regarding their influence primarily on recrystallisation resistance and secondly on fracture toughness and overageing resistance. A complete characterisation of the dispersoid distributions was carried out for a deeper understanding of the effects of the Al3Zr and Al20Cu2Mn3 particles, involving studying their formation from the as-cast and homogenised stage.The most important finding in this work was the lower recrystallisation resistance in the alloy containing 0.1 wt%Zr + 0.3 wt%Mn compared to that containing only 0.1 wt%Zr. This result was rather unexpected, if one considers the opposite microsegregation patterns of Zr and Mn during casting, which leads to dispersoids occupying the majority of the grains’ volume and minimising dispersoid-free zones that could be potential sites for nucleation of recrystallisation. The other two alloys with dispersoid additions 0.05 wt%Zr + 0.3 wt%Mn and 0.4 wt%Mn, were partially and fully recrystallised respectively in the rolled T351 condition.Equally important in this work, was the observation that the opposite microsegregation trend of Zr and Mn sufficed to restrict grain growth in unrecrystallised areas. The 0.1Zr-0.3Mn alloy exhibited the lowest grain size of all alloys, both in the T351 temper and after annealing at 535oC for up to 144 hours. The reason for this was the combined action of Al20Cu2Mn3 dispersoids and Mn solute in the regions where the Zr concentration was low (i.e. near the grain boundaries), which offered additional pinning pressure to those areas compared to the 0.1Zr alloy.The lower recrystallisation resistance of the 0.1Zr-0.3Mn alloy was explained on the grounds of two main factors. The first was the lower subgrain size and hence stored energy within bands of Al20Cu2Mn3 dispersoids, which increased the driving force for recrystallisation in these regions. The second was the interaction between Zr and Mn that led to a decrease in the Al3Zr number density and pinning pressure. Since Zr was the dominant dispersoid family in terms of inhibiting recrystallisation, inevitably this alloy became more prone to recrystallisation. The Al3Zr pinning pressure was found to be much lower especially within bands of Al20Cu2Mn3 dispersoids. The detrimental effect of the Mn addition on the Al3Zr distribution was proven not to result from the dissolution of Zr within Mn-containing phases, and several other phases, at the grain interior and also in grain boundaries. The observed effect could not be precisely explained at this stage.Concerning mechanical properties, the 0.1Zr alloy exhibited the best combination of properties in the Kahn tear tests for fracture toughness. Further, it had a higher overageing resistance compared to the 0.1Zr-0.3Mn alloy.As an overall conclusion from this work, considering all the studied properties here that are essential for damage tolerant applications, the addition of 0.1 wt%Zr to the AA2198 6 mm thick sheet was found to be superior to that of the combined addition of 0.1 wt%Zr + 0.3 wt%Mn.
