Effect Of Temperature Dropping During Solution Treatment In Rejuvenation Heat Treatment On Final Microstructures Of Udimet 520, Kritsayanee Saelor, Panyawat Wangyao
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
Udimet 520 is a low precipitation hardened nickel-based superalloy, which is made to be turbine blades at high temperature. After long-term service, the microstructure of the turbine blades could be degraded, then the mechanical properties are worse than the new ones. The rejuvenation heat treatment of degraded turbine blades, which are made of cast Udimet 520, is following by solution treatment at 1,121C / 4 hours and then double aging processes, which include primary aging at 843 C / 24 hours and secondary aging at 760 C / 16 hours, respectively.However, in practical reheat treatment processes, the temperature during solution …

Effect Of Temperature Dropping During Solution Treatment During Rejuvenation Heat Treatment On Final Microstructures In Cast Nickel Base Superalloy, Grade Inconel-738, Aimamorn Promboopha, Sureerat Polsilapa, Panyawat Wangyao
Journal of Metals, Materials and Minerals
Generally, the rejuvenation heat treatment of degraded turbine blades, which were made of cast nickel based superalloy, Grade Inconel 738, usually consist of solution treatment condition with temperature range of 1125C- 1205C for 3 hours and then following with double aging processes, which include primary aging at 1055C for 1 hour and secondary aging at 845C for 24 hours. However, in practical working conditions of reheat treatment processed, the possible change of temperature during solution treatment can be obtained by error or malfunction of heating furnace, which usually provides the temperature dropping down. To simulate this effect, the dropping temperature …
