Grain Growth during Annealing: Experiments and Modelling

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present work, for the description of grain coarsening, a probabilistic and a deterministic 2D cellular automaton simulation setup were developed. The results of the simulation have been validated by solution annealing experiments of austenitic stainless steel 304L (Fe-18Cr-8Ni) at different temperatures and times. Both cellular automata models show an excellent correlation between the experimental determined data and grain growth kinetics based upon considerations of temperature and second phase particles. Additionally, a two parameter approach of the probabilistic model was implemented, resulting in determining the grain sizes limiting normal and abnormal grains and accurate description of grain growth.
