| Abstract |
The microstructural evolution during a hot forging of Alloy 718 has been studied using compression tests and FEM simulation. The microstructures developed during a hot forging varied depending on dynamic recrystallization. The Zener-Holloman parameter(Z) measured as a function of temperature(T) and strain rate(ε˙) was given by Z=ε˙exp(447.706/RT). The size of dynamically recrystallized grains decreased as Z increased. The critical strain(ε_0) for the initiation of dynamic recrystallization was obtained from compression test and FEM simulation. The detailed variation of microstructures due to dynamic recrystallization could effectively be predicted at various locations in a forged pancake. |
