mpact of complex modification and filtration during pouring into moulds on durability has been evaluated in this study in conditions of high-temperature creep of castings made from nickel superalloy IN-713C post production rejects. The conditions of initiation and propagation of cracks in the specimens were analysed with consideration of morphological properties of material macro-, micro-and substructure. It has been demonstrated that in conditions of high-temperature creep at temperature 980°C with stress σ =150 MPa creep resistance of the IN-713C superalloy increases significantly with the increase of macrograin size. Creep resistance of specimens made of coarse grain material was significantly higher than the resistance of fine grain material.

mpact of heat treatment on durability has been evaluated in this study in conditions of high-temperature creep of castings made from nickel superalloy MAR-247 post production rejects. Castings made in the processes of modification and filtration when pouring into moulds were subject to solubilization (1185°C/2 h) with subsequent ageing (870°C/20 h). It has been found on the basis of performed tests that in conditions of high-temperature creep at temperature 980°C with stress σ = 150 MPa the resistance of specimens of coarse-grain structure was significantly higher when compared to fine-grain material. The conditions of initiation and propagation of cracks in these specimens were analysed with consideration of morphological properties of material macro-, micro-and substructure. Moreover, it has been proven that creep resistance of heat treated MAR-247 superalloy significantly improves when compared to its condition after the process of modification only. Macrostructural changes in the MAR-247 superalloy that determine the increase of superalloy creep resistance after solubilization and ageing, as observed in the tests, were also examined.

Abstract Impact of surface and volume modification and double filtration during pouring the moulds on basic mechanical properties and creep resistance of nickel superalloys IN-713C and MAR-247 in conditions of accelerated creep of castings made of post-production scrap of these alloys is evaluated in this paper. The conditions of initiation and propagation of cracks in the specimens were analysed with consideration of stereological properties of material macro- and microstructure. It has been proven that in the conditions of hightemperature creep at 980°C and at stress σ = 150 MPa, creep resistance of superalloy MAR-247 is more than 10 times higher than the creep resistance of IN-713C alloy. In case of IN-713C alloy, the creep resistance negligibly depends on macrograin sizes. But, the macrograin size considerably affects the time to failure of specimens made of alloy MAR-247. Creep resistance of specimens made of coarse grain material was 20% higher than the resistance of fine grain materials.

Alloy development can range from purely empirical, trial-and-error efforts to very theoretical, based on either fundamental first-principles calculations or computational-modeling using various kinds of data base inputs. However, “real-world” efforts to improve or optimize complex engineering alloys often cannot afford the time or cost of either extreme approach. in the past 10-15 years, an alloy development and processing optimization methodology has been developed that utilizes strategic microanalytical data (both detailed microstucture and microcompositional information) as the critical input that then enables efficient and effective design of various kinds of alloys for improved high-temperature performance [1-6]. in many cases, first time tests produce outstanding high-temperature creep or creep-rupture results, and enable improvements without trading off one property for another. This invited paper will highlight several examples of significantly improved creep resistance obtained using such microstructural design.This microstructural design methodology for high-temperature creep-resistance was initially developed for and demonstrated in austenitic stainless steels (Fe-14Cr-16Ni) designed for improved creep-strength and rupture resistance at 700°C and above for superheater and boiler tubing in advanced fossil power plants.
