Simulation Segregaton in CMSX-4 Superalloy: Experiments and Simulation Predictions
Journal Title: Jurnalul Stiintific TURBO - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
The segregation degree of alloying elements during solidification in as-cast CMSX-4 singlecrystal superalloy was investigated. The elemental partition coefficients calculated using the results of experimental measurements of local compositions and predicted by thermodynamic calculation in multicomponent alloys have shown the tendency of the elements to segregate either into the dendrites (W, Re) or in the interdendritic regions (Al, Ti, and Ta). Among the alloying elements Re has the strongest tendency to segregate. It was found a good agreement between the experimental and simulation prediction results, as well as compared with an analytical model. By thermodynamic calculation it was established the influence of superalloy chemistry on the elemental segregation during solidification.

Overview of the first Romanian social surveys on aircraft noise annoyance
It is no longer a “taboo” that people who are exposed to long-term noise may experience annoyance as well as health problems. The European Union has tackled this problem with the introduction of the Directive on Environm...
Numerical simulations of pulse combustion in Schubert pulsejet engines
Currently, there is no mathematical model or procedure for designing a pulsejet engine that provides sufficient accuracy to be used in practice. For this reason, the paper addresses the problem by achieving a CFD study o...
