Transformation rate of austenite

For higher heating rate transformation will start at higher temperature where as for slower heating rate, transformation will started slowly and at lower temperature. For any given partial rate of heating the formation of austenite will occurs over a range of temperature and not at a constant temperature.

In plain-carbon steel, austenite exists above the critical eutectoid temperature of 1000 K (727 °C); other alloys of steel have different eutectoid temperatures. The austenite allotrope is named after Sir William Chandler Roberts-Austen (1843–1902); it exists at room temperature in stainless steel . A martensitic transformation is a specific type of crystal structure change that occurs when cooling certain specific metals, including Nitinol. The crystal structure found at high temperatures is the parent phase, often referred to austenite, and the phase that results from a martensitic transformation is called martensite. The shape memory In Figure 1, with a low heating rate of 10ºC/s, it is possible to identify the starting temperature of the ferrite transformation into austenite (Af i), which is of about 790ºC, after the pearlite dissolution; the temperatures Ac 1 and Ac 3 are also indicated. Isothermal and continuous-cooling transformation kinetics have been measured dilatometrically for the γ → α+ γ′ and γ′→ P reactions in a 1025 steel. The isothermal transformation of austenite for each reaction was found to fit the Avrami equation after the fraction transformed was normalized to unity at the completion of the reaction and a transformation-start time was determined Austenite Transformation Temperature Behaviour During Cooling. For evaluation of start, final and intermediate ferrite morphologies, Dt-t diagram draw (Fig. 3) and shows that ferrite start temperature transformation Ts (point a) for sample with 50 µm austenite grain size and 5.5 °C/s cooling rate is 660 oC. The kinetics of the austenite-to-pearlite transformation have been measured under isothermal and continuous-cooling conditions on a eutectoid carbon (1080) steel using a diametral dilatometric technique. The isothermal transformation kinetics have been analyzed in terms of the Avrami Equation containing the two parametersn andb; the initiation of transformation was characterized by an

The Ac3 temperature increased with the heating rate between two extreme values, 770°C and 912°C, for medium carbon steel. They calculated the austenite homogenization temperature also, which increased from 800°C to 1200°C with the increase of the heating rate from 0.1 K/s to 1000 K/s [9]. The rate of transformation of austenite to pearlite or bainite is: (i) Practically nil just at A 1 and B s temperatures (the curves are tangent to these temperatures) (Fig. 3.1). because austenite is in thermodynamic equilibrium with pearlite and bainite respectively, i.e., austenite at A 1 has free energy practically equal to the free energy of pearlite, and thus does not transform. The transformation rate is (12) ε ˙ tr α = ξ ˙ tr α m (1) where ξ tr α is the transformed austenite fraction of system α with respect to the original austenite volume. The transformation starts at T 1, and the cumulative proportion of transformed product at a temperature T 2 is given by yz/xz. Thus for a particular cooling rate (d), the temperature at which the transformation begins and produces 10%, 20% 50% 80%, 100%, can be obtained.

Coincidentally with the amount of Al (about 1 %) needed to kill effectively the nitrogen porosity ( Fig. 2.13 ), it happens that at about 1% Al in iron, the gamma loop is closed in the Fe-Al phase diagram, and the austenite–ferrite transformation is eliminated ( Fig. 3.2 ). Austenite becomes unstable when Fe–C is cooled below 723 °C, when it undergoes an allotropic transformation to ferrite and cementite (α-Fe + Fe 3 C) during slow cooling. However, the addition of certain alloying elements, such as nickel and manganese, can stabilise the austenite phase at room temperature. The Ac3 temperature increased with the heating rate between two extreme values, 770°C and 912°C, for medium carbon steel. They calculated the austenite homogenization temperature also, which increased from 800°C to 1200°C with the increase of the heating rate from 0.1 K/s to 1000 K/s [9]. The rate of transformation of austenite to pearlite or bainite is: (i) Practically nil just at A 1 and B s temperatures (the curves are tangent to these temperatures) (Fig. 3.1). because austenite is in thermodynamic equilibrium with pearlite and bainite respectively, i.e., austenite at A 1 has free energy practically equal to the free energy of pearlite, and thus does not transform.

Thus for a particular cooling rate (d), the temperature at which the transformation begins and produces 10%, 20% 50% 80%, 100%, can be obtained. characteristics of the entire transformation process are not yet fully understood. The factors affecting austenite decomposition are chemistry, initial austenite grain size, cooling rate and retained strain.
