Rejuvenation of the microstructure and mechanical properties of a service-exposed IN939 superalloy by heat treatments

Materials at High Temperatures, 2018
Effect of heat treatment on the recovery of microstructure and mechanical properties of a service-exposed IN939 superalloy was studied. Four-stage heat treatment was performed on the service-exposed alloy. The microstructures of the service-exposed and rejuvenated alloys were examined by optical and scanning electron microscopes. The hardness, tension,

Rejuvenation of Fracture Properties of Irradiated Zr-2.5 Nb by Heat Treatment

1992
Neutron irradiation can reduce the flaw tolerance of cold-worked Zr-2.5 Nb. One possible way to retrieve the good fracture properties is to remove the irradiation damage by heat treatment. The results of experiments have shown that a short heat treatment can be effective; for example, 10 min at 550°C reduces the velocity of delayed hydride cracking by ...

Effect of Double-Step Solution Treatment on Rejuvenation Heat Treated Microstructure of IN-738 Superalloy

Key Engineering Materials, 2020
This work investigates the effect of rejuvenation heat treatment, with double-step solution treatment at the temperature from 1150 °C to 1200 °C, on the recovered microstructure of IN-738 cast superalloy. The superalloy has been long-term exposed as a turbine blade in a gas turbine prior to this study.

Effect of Temperature Dropping during Solution Treatment in Rejuvenation Heat Treatment and its Long-Term Heating Simulation on Microstructures of Nickel Base Alloy, Udimet 520

Materials Science Forum, 2017
Udimet 520 is a low precipitation strengthened nickel-based superalloy, which was designed and developed to be gas turbine blades at elevated temperatures. However, after long-term service under high stresses and temperatures, the microstructure of the turbine blades could be continually degraded.

The metallurgical background to rejuvenation heat treatments and weld reparability procedures for gas turbine sheet metal components

Materials at High Temperatures, 2001
AbstractSheet materials for hot gas path components in modern land based gas turbines demand high strength over the temperature range 650–950°C and freedom from serious in-service embrittlement. This is particularly critical where a gas turbine is subject to cycling since thermal stresses can lead to the cracking of such components.

Morphological evolution of γ′ precipitate under various rejuvenation heat treatment cycles in a damaged nickel‐based superalloy

Rare Metals, 2016
Abstract The morphological evolution of γ′ precipitates for a damaged nickel‐based superalloy GTD‐111 under different rejuvenation heat treatments (RHTs) was investigated. The degenerated γ′ precipitates can be completely dissolved into the γ matrix under the full solution condition of 1200 °C/2 h, and only fine γ′ precipitates re ...

Effect of rejuvenation heat treatments on gamma prime distributions in a Ni based superalloy for power plant applications

Materials Science and Technology, 2013
The gamma prime ( γ′) distribution in the Ni based superalloy, CMSX-4, has been examined in detail using a field emission gun scanning electron microscope and a transmission electron microscope after high temperature degradation and the subsequent application of a number of rejuvenation heat treatments.

Changes of γ′ precipitate characteristics in damaged superalloy IN738LC during different stages of rejuvenation heat treatment cycles

Materials Science and Technology, 2012
The present study investigates the evolution of γ′ precipitate microstructure in a creep damaged IN738LC superalloy during different stages of rejuvenation heat treatment cycles. Dissolution of coarsened γ′ precipitates in the creep damaged alloy occurred during different solution treatments.

Rejuvenation Heat Treatment Development to Extend the Service Life of René N4 Single Crystal Gas Turbine Blades

Volume 9: Manufacturing Materials and Metallurgy; Microturbines, Turbochargers, and Small Turbomachines; Oil & Gas Applications; Steam Turbine
Abstract Single crystal superalloys are widely used for gas turbine blades exposed to high stresses, high temperatures in aggressive environments. When these components reach their serviceable limit, they must be replaced by new ones, with an important impact in terms of maintenance costs.
