摘要: 

采用相场法研究了Fe-C-Mn三元合金在临界区等温过程中发生的奥氏体-铁素体相变。基于Gibbs自由能守恒理论,在相场模型中考虑了替换型元素Mn在奥氏体/铁素体相界面内扩散所导致的自由能耗散,描述了Fe-C-Mn三元合金中因Mn在相界面偏聚所导致的相变停滞和相变不完全现象。利用相场模型研究了Mn含量对奥氏体-铁素体相变微观组织转变和相变动力学的影响。结果表明,随着Mn含量的增加,铁素体相的转变速率和体积分数降低,Mn在奥氏体/铁素体相界面内扩散所导致的溶质拖曳现象越明显,相变不完全程度加剧。

Abstract

The effect of Mn on the austenite-to-ferrite transformation has been widely studied by both physical models and experiments due to its technological importance for alloy design in steel industries. In recent years, an increasing interest of this issue is moved onto the effect of alloying element on the migrating interface during the austenite-to-ferrite transformation. For ternary Fe-C-Mn alloys, the interfacial condition is more complicated than that of binary Fe-C alloys in view of the large difference in the diffusivity between the interstitial and substitutional alloying elements. Generally speaking, there are two main concepts, i.e. the paraequilibrium model and the local-equilibrium model, which have been proposed to describe the phase transformation kinetics in ternary Fe-C-Mn alloys based on different assumptions about the diffusion of the substitutional elements. And many modeling attempts have been made to study the effect of Mn on the migration kinetics by using these theories. In this work, a multi-phase-field (MPF) model coupling with a Gibbs-energy dissipation model was developed to simulate the isothermal austenite-to-ferrite transformation in ternary Fe-C-Mn alloys. This model has considered the Mn diffusion inside the migrating interface in a physical manner and takes its effect on the transformation kinetics into account. Comparison simulations were made to analyze the difference in the transformation kinetics and ferrite morphologies with and without considering the energy dissipation at the moving interface. It shows that the incomplete transformation phenomenon does occur due to the Mn diffusion inside interface. The modified MPF model was then used to study the effect of Mn contents on the microstructures and kinetics of the phase transformations. It is found that the ferrite growth along the austenite/austenite boundaries is faster than that in the perpendicular direction. This difference is intensified with increasing the Mn concentration, which hence leads to the ferrite morphology changed from elliptical to flat alike. It also produces a slower transformation kinetics and a larger degree of the incomplete transformation when increasing the Mn concentration.
