Thermal Fatigue of Mar‐m509 Superalloy—i. The Influence of Specimen Geometry

Abstract: The thermal fatigue behaviour of a cast cobalt superalloy was investigated. Wedge type specimens were tested on a rig using flame heating. A standard cycle from 200 to 1100°C was used for most tests and the specimen geometry was changed to investigate a broad range of thermal fatigue lives. The maximum temperature was also varied for a single specimen geometry. The thermal fatigue life to create a 1 mm deep crack ranges from a few tens to one thousand cycles. Crack initiation occurs early in life at oxidised i… Show more

“…Some discrepancy occurs at the lowest strain range. Precipitation of M,, C, carbides is observed during T F over the same temperature range [12] and can induce a slight hardening at the lower temperatures. As the mechanical strain range decreases, time to failure increases and a more abundant precipitation could occur and give rise to extra-hardening.…”

“…The axi-symmetric specimens such as Glenny's disc or stepped disc (12) would not be convenient samples for TF investigations of SX-superalloys, due to the anisotropic mechanical behaviour of these alloys. The TF tests are carried out on self-constraint singleedge wedge specimens with edge radius (R) of 0.25 mm (6,7). Their cross section is shown in Figure 3.…”

“…Thermal fatigue (TF) behaviour of SX-superalloys, despite its key role, is less reported in the open literature. Laboratory TF tests on simple samples such as Glenny's tapered disc (5) and single (6,7) or double-edge wedge specimens (8) have provided a realistic simulation of service conditions of polycrystalline real components. Nevertheless, there are no records of any measured transient thermal and mechanical strains in these specimens for polycrystalline as well as SX-alloys.…”

“…When used as turbine components, cobalt-base superalloys are subjected to cyclic thermal stress caused by the temperature gradients occurring during start-up, thrust change and shutdown of aircraft engines. Repetition of such thermal stress results in thermal fatigue of the alloy [5][6][7].…”
