The results reveal that, with increasing cooling rate, both the spacings of primary and secondary dendrite arms decrease, and the dendrite morphologies transit from coarse to superfme dendrite. The secondary dendrite arms trend to be refined and be well developed, and the tertiary dendrite will occur. The predictions of the Kurz/Fisher model and the Hunt/Lu model accord basically with the experimental data for primary dendrite arm spacing. The regression equation of the primary dendrite arm spacings 21 and the cooling rate Vc is λ1 = 0.013 Vc^-0.32. The regression equation of the secondary dendrite arm spacing λ2 and the cooling rate Vc is λ2 = 0.00258 Vc^-0.31, which gives good agreement with the Feurer/Wunderlin model.展开更多

The results show that, with the increase of directional solidification rate from 50 to 800 μm·s-1, both the primary and the secondary dendrite arm spacings of the alloy decrease gradually, and the dendrite morphologies transform from coarse dendrite to superfine dendrite. The sizes of all precipitates in the superalloy decrease gradually. The morphology of γ' precipitate changes from cube to sphere shape and distributes uniformly in both dendrite core and interdendritic regions. MC carbide morphology changes from coarse block to fine-strip and then to Chinese-script and mainly consists of Ta, W, and Hf elements. The γ-γ' eutectic fraction increases firstly and then decreases, and similar regularity is also found for the variation of segregation ratio of elements.展开更多
