A method for the numerical estimation of the final hardness distribution of heat treated aluminum alloys was developed and implemented into a commercial finite element (FE) tool. Jominy end-quench tests were carried out in order to determine the quench sensitivity of the aluminum alloy EN AW-6082. The hardness distribution of the alloy after end-quenching was related to the corresponding cooling rates. The derived relation was tested for an industrial application by investigating the local heat treatment of a prototype crash absorbing structure. Numerical estimations were validated with experimental measurements. Effectiveness of the derived method and possible improvements were discussed.

The quench sensitivity of 7085 aluminum alloy with different contents of the main alloying elements (Zn, Mg and Cu) was investigated using time-temperature-transformation (TTT) curves and end quenching experiments. Then, the quenching microstructure was analyzed using transmission electron microscopy. With increasing the contents of the main alloying elements, the transitions and nose temperatures of the TTT curves are obviously increased, while the incubation time of 0.5% η (MgZn2) phase precipitation content is decreased. In addition, as the contents of the main alloying elements decrease, the conductivity of the quenched samples is increased, but the hardness of the quenched samples is decreased. Moreover, the size and area fraction of the η phase are increased with increasing the contents of the main alloying elements. Based on the experimental results, the increase of Mg and Cu contents can decrease the stability of supersaturated solid solution and increase the lattice distortion energy, which can increase the quench sensitivity of 7085 aluminum alloy.

7085 aluminum alloy has been widely used in aviation and aerospace because of high fracture toughness, high strength, slow quench sensitivity and low density. In the as-cast microstructure, it is not avoidable for massive un-dissolved secondary phases and dendritic segregation. The microstructure of as-cast high strength 7085 aluminum alloy after two-stage homogenization was studied by optical microscopy (OM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning election microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). It was found that the severe dendritic segregation exists in as-cast 7085 aluminum alloy and a small amount of Al7Cu2Fe exists in the as-cast 7085 alloy. The evolution of primary eutectic structure of 7085 alloy consists of three processes: the dissolution of non-equilibrium eutectic phase α (Al) + Mg (Zn)2, the transformation from Mg (Zn)2 to Al2CuMg and the dissolution of new phase Mg (Zn)2. A suitable two-stage homogenization scheme for as-cast 7085 aluminum alloy is 300°C/8 h + 465°C/24 h.
