摘要:

具有γ/γ'微观结构的钴基合金具有成为下一代高温合金的潜力,但必须优化合金成分和加工步骤以改善粗化、蠕变和筏化行为。虽然这些行为与镍基高温合金不同,但可以通过了解影响微观结构演变的热力学因素来加速合金的开发。本文利用第一性原理密度泛函理论和实验数据建立了Co-Al-W γ'相平衡形状的相场模型。进行三维模拟的单个和多个沉淀物,以了解弹性和界面能对粗化和筏状微观结构的影响;弹性能取决于弹性刚度,失配应变,沉淀物尺寸,施加的应力,和沉淀物的空间分布。我们观察到依赖于所施加的应力的类型的特征微观结构,其具有在实验中看到的相同的γ'形态和取向,这表明来自共格γ/γ'界面的弹性应力对于蠕变期间的形态演变是重要的。结果还表明,γ'沉淀物之间的窄γ通道是积极有利的,并提供了一个解释实验观察到的定向粗化发生没有任何施加应力。

英文摘要:

Cobalt-based alloys with γ/γ' microstructures have the potential to become the next generation of superalloys, but alloy compositions and processing steps must be optimized to improve coarsening, creep, and rafting behavior. While these behaviors are different than in nickel-based superalloys, alloy development can be accelerated by understanding the thermodynamic factors influencing microstructure evolution. In this work, we develop a phase field model informed by first-principles density functional theory and experimental data to predict the equilibrium shapes of Co-Al-W γ' precipitates. Three-dimensional simulations of single and multiple precipitates are performed to understand the effect of elastic and interfacial energy on coarsened and rafted microstructures; the elastic energy is dependent on the elastic stiffnesses, misfit strain, precipitate size, applied stress, and precipitate spatial distribution. We observe characteristic microstructures dependent on the type of applied stress that have the same γ' morphology and orientation seen in experiments, indicating that the elastic stresses arising from coherent γ/γ' interfaces are important for morphological evolution during creep. The results also indicate that the narrow γ channels between γ' precipitates are energetically favored, and provide an explanation for the experimentally observed directional coarsening that occurs without any applied stress.
