Single Crystal Alloy on the Creep Behavior of Holes in Three-Dimensional Finite Element Simulation

Abstract:

Based on finite element Method a dynamic mathematical model is established, and the simulation of stress distribution around the defects of single crystal nickel-based superalloysis also established with ANSYS. Results show that the creep lifetimes and plasticity of the single crystal nickel based superalloys are obviously decreased by microstructure defects. During high temperature creep, the stress isoline near the holes region displays the feature of the acetabuliform distribution, and possesses the bigger stress value at 45 angle direction relative to the applied stress axis. That results in the  phase transformed into the rafted structure at 45 angle direction relative to the applied stress axis, and the circular holes defects are elongated into the ellipse in shape along the direction parallel to the applied stress axis. During creep, a smaller value of the stress distribution displays in the up and down regions of the circular holes, and the maximum value of the stress distribution exhibits the apices region in the sides of the hole.
