Abstract: The investigation is carried out to characterize welding of AISI 310 austenitic stainless steel to Inconel 657 nickel-chromium superalloy. The welds were produced using four types of filler materials: the nickel-based corresponding to Inconel 82, Inconel A, Inconel 617 and austenitic stainless steel 310. This paper describes the effects of aging treatment on the joint. The compara...

The aim of this paper is to characterize welding of AISI 310 austenitic stainless steel to Inconel 657 for use in oil-refining industries. The welds were produced using four types of filler materials; nickel-based alloys designated as Inconel 82, A, 617, and 310 SS. The interfaces and heat-affected zones were characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy. Interfaces on the two sides...

The current work was carried out to characterize welding of AISI 310 austenitic stainless steel to Inconel 657 nickel-chromium superalloy. The welds were produced using four types of filler materials; the nickel-based corresponding to Inconel 82, Inconel A, Inconel 617 and austenitic stainless steels 310. Of the two joints involved, this paper describes the choice of welding consumables for the...

Mechanical properties of machined components are controlled by inducing phase transformations in the outer layer of the materials. Induction hardening is one such manufacturing process where the surface hardness is enhanced while the core is retained with the original structure and characteristics. In this study, a mathematical model had been developed to predict the hardness and the volume fra...

A three-dimensional coupled temperature-displacement finite element model was developed to generate values of temperature distribution, cooling rate, and residual stresses at the meso-scale level in a thick sheet AISI 310 laser welding test sample. High rates (cooling time from liquid-to-solid temperatures) ranging 960 °C/s 2400 were observed when calculations made level. These high that arise ...

In this study, some mechanical properties of borided and unborided four steels were investigated. Boronizing of steels was performed by powder pack method at 1210 K for 4 h. The hardness of borides, boride layer thickness and room temperature tensile properties were measured and it was observed that hardness and tensile properties strongly depend on chemical composition of steels. In addition, ...
