Description

Heat treatment process for carrying out rapid aging on large-size GH4738 alloy forging
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of nickel-based high-temperature alloy heat treatment, in particular to a heat treatment process for rapidly aging a large-size GH4738 alloy forging.
Background
High temperature alloys, also known as heat resistant alloys or superalloys, have excellent mechanical properties and stability in high temperature environments. Wherein GH4738 is a Ni-Cr-Co based precipitation hardening type deformation high-temperature alloy, has good plastic deformation capacity at high temperature, has higher strength and anti-fatigue and anti-corrosion performances at the high temperature of 760-870 ℃, and is widely applied in the fields of aviation and energy at present.
In many applications, the GH4738 alloy is widely used for manufacturing forged parts such as large-size turbine disks and the like due to good processing plasticity and stable structure performance. The flue gas turbine is a prime mover which takes flue gas as a working medium and converts heat energy and pressure energy of the flue gas into mechanical energy. At present, the flue gas turbine is widely applied in the field of petrochemical industry, and is particularly applied to a regenerated flue gas energy recovery system of a vulcanization catalytic cracking unit of a petroleum refinery. Due to the special structural design requirements, a large amount of large-size GH4738 nickel-base superalloy forging turbine discs are required, because the components are complex and severe in use working conditions and are required to have strong stress corrosion resistance and toughness.
The GH4738 alloy is precipitated primarily by the gamma prime phase to strengthen the alloy matrix. In order to obtain the best performance, the alloy forging needs to be subjected to heat treatment before use to optimize the distribution form of a precipitation phase so as to achieve the aim of improving the alloy performance. The gamma ' phase is used as a main precipitated phase and a strengthening phase of a strengthening alloy matrix, the shape, the size and the distribution of the gamma ' phase obviously influence the mechanical property of the alloy, and the form and the distribution of the gamma ' phase can be changed by controlling the heat treatment process parameters, so that the potential of the alloy can be further exerted.
At present, a solid solution and aging heat treatment method is usually adopted for GH4738 alloy forgings in a forging state to improve and adjust the mechanical properties of the GH4738 alloy forgings. GH4738 alloy specified in the high-temperature alloy manual is cooled in an oil cooling mode after solution treatment, and the subsequent aging treatment process is 845 ℃/4h +760 ℃/16h, which is also called a standard double aging process. However, it should be noted that, for a large-size GH4738 alloy forging, especially a large-size forged turbine disk with a diameter greater than 1000mm and a thickness greater than 200mm, it is difficult to completely inhibit the precipitation growth of the γ 'phase even by oil cooling after the solution treatment, resulting in a large difference in the γ' phase content between the edge and the core of the forging after the solution treatment. Subsequent aging treatment cannot eliminate the structural difference, and finally the alloy forging body has large strength fluctuation and low mechanical property index qualification rate. In addition, the existing aging treatment time is long (the total time of two periods of aging treatment is up to 20 hours), the production period is long, the energy consumption is high, and the efficiency is low.
The current research on large-size GH4738 alloy forgings mainly focuses on the processing technology of the forgings, for example, a patent (CN 105177478A) proposes a cogging method of a GH4738 high-temperature alloy large ingot; the patent (patent number: CN103341586A) proposes a forming method for realizing GH4738 nickel-base superalloy turbine disks, but the research on the heat treatment process of formed forgings is less. Therefore, the rapid aging heat treatment process suitable for the large-size GH4738 alloy forge piece needs to be developed, the mechanical property uniformity of the alloy is improved, the aging treatment time is greatly shortened, the production efficiency is improved, and the cost is reduced.
Disclosure of Invention

Further, after the solution treatment in the step 1) is finished, the heating furnace adopts an air cooling method to control the cooling rate within the range of 100-150 ℃/min; and cooling the alloy forging below 500 ℃ out of the furnace and air cooling.
Further, the cooling mode after the aging treatment in the step 2) is furnace discharging and air cooling.
The invention provides a heat treatment process for carrying out rapid aging on a large-size GH4738 alloy forging, which has unexpected effects on improving the uniformity of the structure and the mechanical property of the alloy forging.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1. aiming at the characteristic that the alloy forging has larger size, the heat treatment process adopts graded heating before solid solution and aging treatment, so that the temperature rise rate of the alloy is reduced and the thermal stress of the alloy forging after heat treatment is reduced while the alloy is uniformly heated, and the heat treatment process is particularly suitable for large-size alloy forgings.
2. According to the invention, by optimizing the cooling rate of the alloy after the solution treatment and matching with the short-time aging treatment, dispersed and uniformly distributed gamma' phase is formed in the GH4738 alloy matrix, and the method has an unexpected effect on improving the strength uniformity of the alloy. Wherein the corresponding tensile strength difference between the edge of the forging and the core region at room temperature is reduced to within 15MPa from about 40MPa, and the yield strength difference is reduced to within 15MPa from about 50 MPa.
3. Compared with the traditional aging treatment, the heat treatment process greatly shortens the aging treatment time, improves the production efficiency, reduces the production cost and has important production and application values.
