The parameters simulation of cooling rate
and secondary & composition has been established for the sake of searching
their intrintic relationship. It is observed that the cooling rate will
decrease from 105K/s to 2K/s when the secondary arm space changes from 4?m to
170?m in dentrite of TiAl. It explains that the bigger secondary arm space will
be if the cooling rate is smaller. It fits to the principle well. For the
making TiAl intermetallic compounds the fit cooling rate and secondary arm
space will be determined in advance to proceed the experiment which is
necessary for us to regulate. The line is drawn between cooling rate with
0~100K/s and composition with 0~ 0.1 in TiAl alloy respectively. It is better
value since it fits to the object very well. The maximum arrives 100K/s that is
big value for solidification with high speed. The bigger the composition the
lower secondary arm space is. The former changes from 0 to 1 with the later
changing from 10.5?m to 5.8?m.
The change of temperature
in the solid and liquid in solidification transformation can deduce the related
formula. The curve expresses its trend better. From this relation their
secondary dendrite arm space composition will change when the transformation happens.
It is known that the temperature in solidification can solve their
relationship. In this study in terms of these equations the deduction and
analysis is done and the error analysis to them is done. Here the solid and
liquid equation is explored within line and find the simple formula which make
us to calculate the cooling rate rapidly [1-3]. Therefore in this study the
model of temperature and composition has been established to observe the trend
and intrinsic relationship between them. Then the error is checked with
variance to both of constant. TiAl as a promise materials has been searched and
developed for many years. However the cooling rate with compositions is not
much yet, so in this study the equation is established through temperature and composition
according to the phase diagram. It is modelled with cooling rate and
composition difference too in directional solidification test. The detail value
is combined through phase equilibrium line and it is compared with thermal
dynamics. The research scope is from 0 to pure Al here. On the other side the
relationship with cooling rate and energy difference & temperature has been
investigated according to varied speed respectively for the application.
According to the solidified crystalline and phase diagram the application will
be known. In addition relationship between cooling rate and energy difference
& temperature are drawn for further research in this study. To calculate
the cooling rate is our destination in the end in terms of the composition in
TiAl alloys. Therefore the establishment equation between temperature and
cooing rate in terms of the equilibrium diagram [3-8]
Simulation
In Figure 1 the cooling rate will decrease from 105K/s to 2K/s when the secondary arm space changes from 4?m to 170?m in dentrite of TiAl. It explains that the bigger secondary arm space will be if the cooling rate is smaller. It fits to the principle well too. In general the secondary arm space has been 20?m~40?m in dendrite therefore the corresponding cooling rate attains 20K/s~10K/s according to the curve in Figure 1. So from the secondary arm space in dentrite the cooling rate will be checked out and it can be convenient for us to use in practice and experiment. On the contrary from the cooling rate the secondary arm space the cooling rate is also seen in this study. It is said again the bigger secondary arm space creates lower cooling rate and the higher cooling rate creates the lower arm space. It is seen evidently in this study. For the decreasing making cost the high cooling rate is effective to compare with low one so the secondary arm space will be low too. This is the valuable data computed and shown in this study. For the making TiAl intermetallic compounds the fit cooling rate and secondary arm space will be determined in advance to proceed the experiment which is necessary for us to regulate. For the cost down the high solidified speed is needed on the other side the single crystal is not neglected for the science experiment and high quality. This is the final destination in this paper to look for (Figures 1-3).

There are three
composition difference in Ti-Al?including ?Ti3Al,
?TiAl and ?TiAl3 which can be found in Figure 2. They are -200K/s, -500K/s and
-750K/s in solidification when the composition difference is 0.25Al, 0.5Al and
0.75Al respectively. As seen in Figure 3 which is a part of Figure 2 from 0 to
0.1 with ?Com the line is drawn between cooling rate with 0~100K/s and
composition with 0~ 0.1 in TiAl alloy respectively. It is better value since it
fits to the object very well. The maximum arrives 100K/s that is big value for
solidification with high speed. That is our final destination to make higher
speed sample to launch. How to use this chart is the task here. In the case of
0.44 Al and 0.46Al the difference is 0.02 therefore ?Com equals 0.02
correspondingly the 20K is the temperature difference in Figure 2~ Figure 3 in
special the latter is easier to check the value. If ?Com is 0.04 ie.0.44Al and
0.48Al the 40K is the ?T. So as the composition difference becomes bigger the
temperature difference changes bigger too. That is due to the deeper gap to be
formed. It makes the bigger super cooling to happen which results in smaller
dentrite secondary arm space to be formed. It fits to the low cost and launch
producing. This satisfies our destination to form rapid solidification to be
harder and small crystals not only research and study but also cost down
problem. If they are observed carefully the ?T and Crate has been near the same
within 0~100K value in Figure 1 and Figure 3. Under 20K and 0.02Al the cooling
rate is slow and ?T is big still. It explains that the cooling rate i.e.
Solidification is difficult to control so controlling composition difference
ie. Constitutional supercoiling will be necessary.
Due to their relationship
equation the following transformating equation has been computed.
Since
And it has
So
It has
These (3) and (4) are the
composition and cooling rate and secondary arm space relation equations. Here
Com is composition rate; T is temperature K; Crate is cooling rate K/s; ?Com is
temperature difference; ?Crate is the cooling rate K; L is secondary arm space
in dentrite mm (Figure 4).
As seen from Figure 4 the
bigger the composition the lower secondary arm space is. The former changes
from 0 to 1 with the later changing from 10.5?m to 5.8?m. They are non-proportional
relationship. When the composition is 0.25, 0.5 and 1 the secondary arm space
will be 9.2?m, 8 ?m and 5.8?m respectively in non-constitutional supercoiling.
The composition turn is from low to high like Ti3Al, TiAl and TiAl3 with above
values correspondingly which says the larger and easier and more rapid
supercoiling will be. Nevertheless the cooling rate is still low in the whole
with highest value of 10?m~5.8?m. Therefore there is still other factor like
?T.
