MODELING THE DYNAMICALLY RECRYSTALLIZED GRAIN SIZE
EVOLUTION OF A SUPERALLOY

G.E. Kodzhaspirov, M.I. Terentyev

Abstract

The evolution of the UNS 6617 alloy microstructure during the hot deformation and the effect of hot deformation parameters on the grain structure and on the dynamic recrystallization were studied. A mathematical model which is capable to calculate the dynamically recrystallized austenite grain size of the alloy was built.

Keywords: dynamic recrystallization; superalloy; Zener-Hollomon parameter; activation energy
