Investigation of the Influence of Direct Metal Deposition Modes on Microstructure and Formation of Defects in Samples of Heat Resistant Alloy

The article discusses the influence of technological modes of the DMD method on the macro- and microstructure of a heat-resistant nickel-based alloy to use this technology for heat-resistant materials in the manufacture of parts for combustion chambers in gas turbine plants.

Improving the Efficiency of Turning Processing of Heat-Resistant Alloys by Introducing Ultrasonic Field Energy into the Cutting Zone

Studies have been carried out to assess the effectiveness of dry processing by the current preparations from the heat-resistant alloy CN45MVTUBR with mineral ceramic incisors with the introduction of the ultrasound-field energy treatment zone. It has been established that the use of ULTRASOUND in the rough treatment of mineral ceramic tools without coolant allows to reduce the depth of the defective layer in 1.5 times.

Magnetic Method for Rapid Detection of Carburization Degree of Fe-Cr-Ni Series High-Temperature Heat-Resistant Alloy

In view of the carburization of Fe-Cr-Ni high-temperature heat-resistant alloys in the ethylene cracking furnace and the hydrogen conversion furnace, this paper implemented the GMRI-I carburizing detector to test the degree of carburization of 25Cr35NiNb+ microalloy inlet pipe and 35Cr45NiNb+ microalloy outlet pipe of the ethylene cracking furnace after service as well as the reinforced joint made of Incoloy 800H from the hydrogen-making reformer. In conjunction with the results of the low-power acid corrosion test, a rapid detection method for the degree of carburization was proposed. Based on the experimental results of the carburizing detector and the laboratory test data, the carburization degree test curve of the above three alloys based on the magnetic field strength has been established. The detection accuracy was circa. 5% and the error was ±10%, which is convenient for guiding the use and replacement of Fe-Cr-Ni high-temperature heat-resistant alloy materials for ethylene cracking furnace and hydrogen conversion furnace, thereby ensuring the safe and stable operation of the device.

Analysis of Defects at Laser Welding of Heat-Resistant Alloy KhN45VMTYuBR

The article presents the results of the impact of laser welding parameters on defect occurrence in the welded seam of the Ni-based heat-resistant alloy Kh45VMTYuBR applied for the manufacture of gas-turbine engines. On the basis of the research the authors conduct the analysis of dimensions as well as the number of pores and micro-cracks in the welded seam. The paper provides the recommendations on the selection of the laser welding mode for the heat-resistant alloy to reduce defect occurrence in a welding seam.
