Constitutive Model and Microstructure Evolution Finite Element Simulation of Multidirectional Forging for GH4169 Superalloy

This study investigates three processes of multidirectional forging (MDF), namely, closed MDF (CMDF), single-open MDF, and double-open MDF, by using a constitutive equation and a dynamic recrystallization model of hot deformation of the GH4169 superalloy. The microstructure evolution of the three pr...

description This study investigates three processes of multidirectional forging (MDF), namely, closed MDF (CMDF), single-open MDF, and double-open MDF, by using a constitutive equation and a dynamic recrystallization model of hot deformation of the GH4169 superalloy. The microstructure evolution of the three processes is simulated and compared. Among the three processes, the double-open MDF obtains the highest recrystallization degree, followed by the CMDF and the single-open MDF under the same reduction. The recrystallization degree of CMDF reaches 99.5% at 1000 °C and 9 passes, and the average recrystallized grain size is small, which is approximately 8.1 μm. The double-open MDF can obtain a fine grain size of forgings at 9 passes and 1000 °C, and it is easy to obtain forgings with the single-open MDF with uniform performance. The temperature is 850 °C–1000 °C, the compression rate is 0.15–0.2, and the pass is 5–9, which are the suitable parameter selection ranges for the CMDF. The temperature is 950 °C–1000 °C, the compression rate is 0.1–0.2, and the pass is 7–9, which are the suitable parameter selection ranges for single-open MDF. The temperature is 850 °C–1000 °C, the compression rate is 0.1–0.2, and the pass is 6–9, which are the suitable parameter selection ranges for the double-open MDF.
