Directional Solidification of René 80

Abstract: Directional solidification (DS) of a nickel-base superalloy, Rene 80, was studied from the viewpoint of its possible engineering applications in the future. Its feasibility was examined in terms of the alloy's castability in DS and the resultant mechanical properties. Experimentalfabrication ofturbineblades in actual size was made by the "Power Down" method and excellent DS castability for this alloy was confirmed by easy mold production and high speed processing rates. The tensile strength increased approxima… Show more

“…5a,b,c . The creep rupture life of HESA at 982 °C is about 114 h, which is similar to those of several first-generation Ni-based superalloys under similar test conditions, e.g., the creep life of NX-188 DS under 982 °C/138 MPa test is 58 h 35 , and that of Rene′ 80 under 982 °C/145 MPa test is 118 h 36 . The 982 °C creep curve of HESA is clearly shown in Fig.…”

“…Directional solidification processing of the alloy results in a further improvement in its high-temperature properties and hotcorrosion resistance and also permits the use of higher service temperatures, which is very important for enhancing the thermal efficiency of turbines. [2][3][4][5] It has been reported that the tensile strength of directionally solidified Rene´80 (DS Rene´80) is approximately 10 to 15 pct greater, and its creep rupture life is extended by 2 to 4 times, as compared to the conventionally cast material. [5] During service, the hot-section components of the turbines generally experience very severe thermal and mechanical stresses for extended periods, which can cause cracking or material loss.…”

[5] During service, the hot-section components of the turbines generally experience very severe thermal and mechanical stresses for extended periods, which can cause cracking or material loss. For cost effectiveness, it is often advantageous to repair the damaged components rather than replace them, and fusion welding is a commonly used repair technique to increase the component life.…”
