A modified model describing the austenite reaction was developed that took into account the effect of heating rate. The model considered the variation of activation energy during non-isothermal heating and one set of model parameter was adequate to predict the formation of austenite. To verify the theoretical model, the process of austenite formation during continuous heating in Cr5 roller steel with pearlite and ferrite mixed initial microstructure was analyzed by dilatation experiment. The results show that a strong logarithmic relationship between apparent activation energy and heating rate. Experimental kinetic transformations as well as critical temperatures of austenite reaction are in good agreement with the calculations. The model can be used to describe the transformation kinetics at an intermediate heating rate.

The first step in a heat treating cycle is the austenitizing of the as-received material. Despite its importance, this step has received relatively little attention. In this work, the kinetics of austenite formation during continuous heating tests of steel samples with low and high silicon content was determined as a function of heating rate. The microstructural evolution was characterized through dilatometric analysis of cylindrical samples (7 mm × 20 mm), continuously heated in a protective atmosphere at constant heating rates ranging from 2 to 40 °C/min. The critical temperatures and the transformation kinetics were determined from the derivative of the relative length change as a function of temperature. As the heating rate increases the critical temperatures and the transformation temperature range increase; the addition of silicon produces a more marked effect. The transformation kinetics data were correlated using an Avrami-type equation. The kinetic parameter n is nearly independent of heating rate while the parameter k is a strong function of the heating rate; in both cases, slightly larger values were obtained for the high-silicon steel.

The crystallization kinetics of amorphous alloy Mg65Cu15Ag10Y10has been studied by differential scanning calorimetry in the mode of continuous heating annealing. It is found that both DSC curves and activation energy show a strong dependence on the heating rate. The activation energy for crystallization are determined as 186.1 and 184.4 KJ mol−1for the heating rates β=5-20 Kmin−1, and 107.5 and 110.0 KJmol−1for the heating rates β=20-80Kmin−1, when using the Kissinger equation and the Ozawa equation, respectively. Local activation energy at any volume fraction crystallized was obtained by the general Ozawa's isoconversional method. The average value of local activation energy for heating rates ranging from 5 to 20Kmin−1is 180.9 KJ mol−1and for heating rates ranging between 20 and 80Kmin−1is 110.2 KJ mol−1. Using the Suriñach curve fitting procedure, the kinetics mode was specified. The JMA kinetics is manifested as a rule in the early stages of the crystallization. The JMA exponent,n, initially being larger than 4 and continuously decreases to about 2 along with the development of crystallization. The NGG-like mode dominates in the advanced stages of the transformation. These two modes are mutually independent. The proportion between the JMA-like and the NGG-like modes is related to the heating rate.

In the project “Distortion compatible heating during heat treatment’’ of the Collaborative Research Center 570 “Distortion Engineering’’ the mechanisms of distortion development during heating are analyzed. The factors of the austenitizing process influencing distortion during heat treatment are investigated by experiments as well as by computer simulation. To predict distortion during heating with computer simulation, the ferrite + carbide into austenite transformation has to be modeled accurately. A model, based on the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation, was developed to describe the transformation of hypoeutectoid and hypereutectoid steels during continuous heating with constant heating rate.

Grain growth is a thermally activated process in which the average grain size increases as temperature and time increases. The driving force for grain growth results from the decrease in the free energy associated with the reduction in total grain boundary energy. There are several known factors that influence the migration of grain boundaries such as second phase particles precipitated in the matrix and the solute elements segregated at grain boundaries. The austenite grain boundaries are revealed using the thermal etching method. Carbon extraction replicas were prepared to determine the composition and size of precipitates present in the matrix. In this work, the evolution of the average prior austenite grain size (PAGS) of a low carbon steel microalloyed with niobium is studied as a function of temperature and heating rate. Austenite grains show a two-stage growth. It has been found that as heating rate increases, the grain coarsening temperature (TGC) increases and the grain size at that temperature decreases. TGC temperature lies around 40-60°C below the temperature for complete dissolution of carbonitrides (TDISS).

This study allowed, by dilatometric analyses, both to highlight the solid state transformations that occurred during the continuous heating of two hypoeutectoid steels, as well as to investigate the effect of the heating rate on the critical points at which these transformations occurred. The eutectoid transformation (the pearlite dissolution into austenite) was carried out in a temperatures interval, ranging between pearlite dissolution start temperature (Ac1) and pearlite dissolution finish temperature (denoted Acfp in this article). Increasing the heating rate determined a displacement of the critical points in solid-state phase transformation to higher temperatures; these displacements were more significant for the Acfp point, than for the critical points Ac1 and Ac3.
