Definitions

  • This invention relates to improved castable nickel-chromium-cobalt base alloys and castings of these alloys.
  • Nickel-chromium and nickel-chromium-cobalt base alloys containing titanium and aluminium develop, on suitable heat-treatment, a high level of creep-rupture strength at high temperatures and are widely used in applications giving rise to high stress at elevated temperatures, such as gas turbine engine rotor blades and vanes.
  • impure fuels such as diesel oil in land-based and marine propulsion turbines gives rise to sulphidation attack. Operation in marine and other chloride-containing environments also results in severe corrosion problems.
  • alloys that exhibit this combination of properties and contain from 0.02 to 0.25% carbon, from 20 to 25% chromium, from 5 to 25% cobalt, one or both of molybdenum (up to 3.5%) and tungsten (up to 5%) in such amounts that the value of %W+0.5 (%Mo) is from 0.5 to 5%, from 1.7 to 5% titanium and from 1 to 4% aluminium, with the provisos that the sum of the aluminium and titanium contents is from 4 to 7% and the ratio of titanium to aluminium is from 0.75:1 to 4:1, from 0.5 to 3% tantalum, from 0 to 3% niobium, from 0.005 to 1.0% zirconium and from 0 to 1.99% hafnium, with the proviso that the value of %Zr+0.5 (%Hf) is from 0.01 to 1%, from 0.001 to 0.05% boron, and from 0 to 0.2% in total of yt
  • the present invention is based on the discovery that by means of a special correlation of the contents of titanium, aluminium, niobium and hafnium in a range of alloy compositions that also contain nickel, chromium, cobalt, tungsten (with or without molybdenum), tantalum, carbon, boron and zirconium, the creep-rupture life of castings of the alloys, particular in the directionally-solidified form, can be further substantially increased.
  • nickel-chromium-cobalt alloys contain from 20 to 23% chromium, form 17 to 23% cobalt, from 1 to 2.5% tungsten, from 0 to 0.5% molybdenum, from 0.4 to 1.2% niobium, from 0.6 to 1.4% tantalum, from 2.95 to 3.85% titanium, from 1.6 to 2.8% aluminium, from 0.3 to 1.3% hafnium, from 0.005 to 1% zirconium, from 0.001 to 1% boron, and from 0.01 to 0.25% carbon, the balance part from impurities, being nickel, with the proviso that the contents of niobium, hafnium, titanium and aluminium (in wt. % of the alloy) are so correlated that they satisfy the expression:
  • boron and carbon preferably lie within the narrower ranges 0.005 - 0.15% zirconium, 0.002-0.02% boron and 0.05 to 0.20% carbon though smaller amounts of carbon and boron may be present in single-crystal castings where their contribution to grain-boundary strengthening is not required.
  • the alloys of the invention in the directionally-solidified form and after solution-heating and ageing, may exhibit creep-rupture lives in excess of 1600 hours, at 200 N/mm 2 and 870°C.
  • impurities that may be present include small amounts of silicon, manganese and iron, though these should be kept as low as possible.
  • the silicon content should not exceed 1 %, and preferably is less than 0.5%, most preferably not more than 0.2%, as it impairs the corrosion resistance.
  • Manganese should be less than 1%, and is preferably not more than 0.2%.
  • the iron content may be as much as 3%, but is preferably not more than 0.5%. Traces of nitrogen and sulphur may also be present, but preferably not more than 0.005% each.
  • a preferred alloy according to the invention has the normal composition:
  • the Correlation Factor calculated for this composition is 153 855.
  • vacuum refining e.g. by holding under vacuum for from 15 minutes to 1 hour.
  • the cast stick or other initial form should be remelted and cast under vacuum.
  • the alloys have good castability and are particularly suitable for the production of cast shaped articles and parts.
  • the castings are preferably directionally solidified to obtain a columnar crystal structure, but the invention specifically includes shaped castings made from the alloys both with substantially equiaxed and with columnar crystal structures.
  • Such castings include parts of gas turbine engines, for example gas turbine rotor or stator blades, both with and without cooling passages, and integrally bladed turbine rotor discs.
  • Directional solidication may be effected in any manner conventionally employed for high-temperature alloys.
  • the castings must be subjected to a heat-treatment comprising solution-heating and ageing.
  • the solution-heating preferably consists in heating for from 2 to 24 hours at from 1120 to 1200°C, and is followed by ageing in the temperature range from 1020 to 650°C for from 2 to 24 hours.
  • the ageing may be effected in a single stage, or in two stages, e.g. from 2 to 12 hours at 1020 ⁇ 870°C and then from 6 to 48 hours at 860 ⁇ 650°C.
  • Suitable heat treatments are:
  • the alloy may be air-cooled.
  • test pieces were then subjected to creep-rupture tests under a stress of 200 N/mm 2 at 870°C, with the results set out in Table II, which also includes the Correlation Factor calculated from the alloy compositions.
  • the alloys may also be useful in the wrought forms. They may be used to produce single crystal castings, for example single-crystal gas turbine blades or vanes. If heat-treated in vacuum, they may be rapidly quenched after each stage of heating by gas fan quenching.
