Directional solidification of the eutectic LiF-LiYF4 using Bridgman and micro-pulling down techniques: Microstructural study and some properties
The eutectic LiF−LiYF4 has been solidified by Bridgman and micro-pulling down (mPD) at pulling rates from 4 to 300 mm/h. The microstructure changes from a coupled, interpenetrated-like one to macrofaceted colonies composed of an approximately triangular arrangement of LiF fibers inside the LiYF4 matrix as the pulling rate increases. The cross-over pulling rate is around 3 times larger for the m...
متن کاملConditions for CET in a gamma TiAl alloy
The solidification of gamma TiAl alloys is of interest to the aerospace and automotive industries. A gamma TiAl multicomponent alloy: Ti–45.5Al–4.7Nb–0.2C–0.2B (at. %) has been the focus of a study to investigate the solidification conditions that led to a Columnar to Equiaxed Transition (CET) in a directional solidification experiment where traditional Bridgman solidification was combined in s...
متن کاملA Numerical Investigation of Directional Binary Alloy Solidification Processes Using a Volume-averaging Technique
A numerical investigation of directional binary alloy solidification processes is presented. In particular, a mathematical model is developed to study macrosegregation patterns as a consequence of thermal-solutal convection in the melt and mushy zone. A good understanding of the basic mechanisms of macrosegregation is helpful in designing and controlling solidification processes in order to ach...
متن کاملUpward and downward unsteady-state directional solidification of a hypoeutectic Al-3wt.%Mg alloy
Solidification thermal parameters, such as growth rate, cooling rate and dendrite arm spacing ( ), have been measured in a hypoeutectic Al-Mg alloy directionally solidified under upward and downward transient heat flow conditions. The experimental setup used in this work consists of a water-cooled mould with heat being extracted from the bottom or the top, promoting upward and downward directio...
متن کاملModeling of TiAl Alloy Grating by Investment Casting
The investment casting of TiAl alloys has become the most promising cost-effective technique for manufacturing TiAl components. This study aimed to investigate a series of problems associated with the investment casting of TiAl alloys. The mold filling and solidification of this casting model were numerically simulated using ProCAST. Shrinkage porosity was quantitatively predicted by a built-in...
