Computer Model for Prediction of Carbonitride Precipitation during Hot Working in Nb-Ti Bearing HSLA Steels.

抄録

A computer model which predicts complex precipitation behavior quantitatively in Nb-Ti bearing steel has been developed on a theoretical basis. The solubility and composition of the complex precipitates, and the chemical driving force of the precipitates from supersaturated austenite are estimated by means of thermodynamic analysis of regular solution composed of four-binary compounds. The change in dislocation density which acts as a nucleation site during hot working is calculated by using dislocation theory. And the time dependence of volume fraction and the particle radius of strain induced precipitation are also predicted on the basis of classical nulceation theory. In order to estimate the effect of deformation on nucleation, the change in elastic energy of dislocation with nucleation is calculated.<br>Experimental results showed that combination of Nb and Ti addition, decreased the solubility of carbonitrides and accelerated the precipitation rate from supersaturated austenite because of the formation of complex precipitates. Such experimental results are in good agreement with the prediction by the present model. And both the acceleration of precipitation rate and the refinement of precipitates particles due to hot deformation are also quantitatively explained.
