Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Nickelbasislegierung, die im Wesentlichen frei von Rhenium ist, aber gleichzeitig die Eigenschaften hinsichtlich der Kriechbeständigkeit der Nickelbasissuperlegierungen der zweiten Generation erreicht.The present invention relates to a nickel-base alloy which is substantially free of rhenium, but at the same time achieves the creep resistance properties of the second-generation nickel-base super alloys.
In Gasturbinen, wie stationären Gasturbinen oder Flugtriebwerken, werden Nickelbasis-Superlegierungen beispielsweise als Schaufelwerkstoffe eingesetzt, da diese Werkstoffe auch bei den hohen Betriebstemperaturen noch eine ausreichende Festigkeit für die hohen mechanischen Belastungen aufweisen. Beispielsweise werden Turbinenschaufeln bei stationären Gasturbinen oder Strahltriebwerken in Flugverkehrsflugzeugen einem Abgasstrom mit Temperaturen von bis zu 1500°C ausgesetzt und unterliegen gleichzeitig sehr hohen mechanischen Belastungen durch Fliehkräfte. Unter diesen Bedingungen kommt es insbesondere darauf an, dass die Kriechbeständigkeit des eingesetzten Werkstoffs den Anforderungen genügt. Um die Kriechbeständigkeit weiter zu steigern, werden seit einigen Jahrzenten Turbinenschaufeln auch einkristallin hergestellt, um durch die Vermeidung von Korngrenzen die Kriechbeständigkeit weiter zu verbessern.In gas turbines, such as stationary gas turbines or aircraft engines, nickel-base superalloys are used, for example, as blade materials, since these materials still have sufficient strength for the high mechanical loads even at high operating temperatures. For example, turbine blades are exposed in stationary gas turbines or jet engines in airliners an exhaust gas flow at temperatures of up to 1500 ° C and at the same time are subject to very high mechanical loads due to centrifugal forces. Under these conditions, it is particularly important that the creep resistance of the material used meets the requirements. In order to further increase the creep resistance, turbine blades have also been produced monocrystalline for several decades in order to further improve creep resistance by avoiding grain boundaries.
Bei den derzeit eingesetzten Nickelbasissuperlegierungen der sogenannten zweiten und dritten Generation weisen die Legierungen üblicherweise das chemische Element Rhenium auf, und zwar mit einem Anteil von drei bzw. sechs Gewichtsprozent, da Rhenium die Kriechbeständigkeit weiter verbessert.In the nickel-base superalloys of the so-called second and third generation currently in use, the alloys usually have the chemical element rhenium in a proportion of three or six percent by weight, since rhenium further improves creep resistance.
Allerdings ist durch die geringe Verfügbarkeit von Rhenium die Beimengung von Rhenium sehr teuer. Entsprechend gibt es im Stand der Technik bereits Bestrebungen den Anteil von Rhenium zu reduzieren bzw. ganz auf das Zulegieren von Rhenium zu verzichten, wobei gleichzeitig die mechanischen Eigenschaften, insbesondere hinsichtlich der Kriechbeständigkeit, erhalten bleiben sollen. Untersuchungen hierzu gibt es von
Obwohl damit bereits einige Lösungsvorschläge für eine Rheniumreduzierung bzw. für rheniumfreie Nickelbasissuperlegierungen bestehen, besteht weiterhin Bedarf, rheniumreduzierte bzw. rheniumfreie Nickelbasissuperlegierungen zu entwickeln, deren mechanische Eigenschaften, insbesondere Hochtemperatureigenschaften, wie Kriechbeständigkeit, im Bereich der derzeit eingesetzten rheniumhaltigen Nickelbasissuperlegierungen liegen, bzw. den Einsatz bestimmter Elemente wie Hafnium vermeiden.Although there are already some proposed solutions for rhenium reduction or rhenium-free nickel base superalloys, there is still a need to develop rhenium-reduced or rhenium-free nickel-base superalloys whose mechanical properties, in particular high-temperature properties, such as Creep resistance, in the range of rhenium-containing nickel-based superalloys currently in use, or avoid the use of certain elements such as hafnium.
Weitere Legierungsbeispiele sind in der
Es ist deshalb Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Nickelbasissuperlegierung anzugeben, welche vergleichbare mechanische Eigenschaften, insbesondere Hochtemperatureigenschaften, wie Kriechbeständigkeit, wie derzeit eingesetzte Nickelbasissuperlegierungen der zweiten und dritten Generation aufweist, aber auf das Zulegieren des Elements Rhenium vollständig verzichtet. Darüber hinaus soll die Legierung wirtschaftlich und effizient herstellbar und insbesondere leicht gießbar sowie einkristallin oder gerichtet erstarrbar sein.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a nickel-base superalloy which has comparable mechanical properties, in particular high-temperature properties, such as creep resistance, such as currently used nickel base superalloys of the second and third generation, but completely omits the alloying of the element rhenium. In addition, the alloy should be economical and efficient to produce and in particular easily castable and monocrystalline or directionally solidified.
Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Legierung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 und einen entsprechenden Gegenstand, insbesondere eine Komponente einer Gasturbine mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 8. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche.This object is achieved by an alloy having the features of
Die Erfindung geht aus von der Erkenntnis, dass Rhenium bei den Nickelbasissuperlegierungen insbesondere zur Mischkristallhärtung der γ-Matrix der Nickelbasissuperlegierungen beiträgt. Um Rhenium wirksam ersetzen zu können, muss deshalb ein Legierungsbestandteil vorhanden sein, welcher die Aufgabe der Mischkristallhärtung von Rhenium übernimmt. Die Erfindung setzt an diesem Punkt an und schlägt vor, dass Wolfram als effizienter Mischkristallhärter in der Legierung verwendet werden kann. Allerdings liegt Wolfram üblicherweise nicht nur in der γ-Matrix von Nickelbasissuperlegierungen vor, sondern auch in den ausgeschiedenen γ'-Phasen, die üblicherweise durch Ni3Al oder Ni3Ti bzw. Mischungen daraus gebildet sind. Hier setzt die Erfindung an, indem sie Nickelbasissuperlegierungen vorschlägt, bei denen unter vorgegebenen Randbedingungen die Legierungszusammensetzung so optimiert ist, dass der Wolframgehalt in der γ-Matrix größer ist als in den ausgeschiedenen γ'-Phasen.The invention is based on the finding that rhenium contributes to the nickel-base superalloys in particular for solid-solution hardening of the γ-matrix of the nickel-base super alloys. In order to be able to replace rhenium effectively, therefore, an alloying component must be present, which takes on the task of solid solution hardening of rhenium. The invention addresses this point and suggests that tungsten can be used as an efficient solid solution hardener in the alloy. However, tungsten is usually present not only in the γ-matrix of nickel-base superalloys, but also in the precipitated γ'-phases, which are usually formed by Ni 3 Al or Ni 3 Ti or mixtures thereof. This is where the invention starts by proposing nickel-base super alloys in which the alloy composition is optimized under given boundary conditions in such a way that the tungsten content in the γ matrix is greater than in the precipitated γ 'phases.
Hierzu wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen, dass als Randbedingung eine chemische Zusammensetzung der Legierung mit einem Aluminiumgehalt von 11 bis 11,2 at.-%, Kobalt von 9,1 bis 9,3 at.-%, Chrom von 6 bis 6,2 at.-%, Molybdän von 0,85 bis 1,0 at.-%, Tantal von 3,3 bis 3,5 at.-%, Titan von 1,5 bis 1,7 at.-%, Wolfram von 2,8 bis 3 at.-% sowie dem Rest Nickel und unvermeidbare Verunreinigungen vorgegeben wird. Eine derartige Legierung soll weiterhin als Randbedingung eine Solidustemperatur von mehr als 1.320°C aufweisen und der Anteil der γ'-Phase soll im Bereich von 40 bis 50 Vol.-%, insbesondere bei 44 bis 46 Vol.-% bei einer Temperatur im Bereich von 1050°C von 1100°C liegen. Zusätzlich soll als Randbedingung festgelegt sein, dass die γ/γ'-Fehlpassung bei Temperaturen von 1050°C bis 1100°C im Bereich von -0,15 % bis -0,25 % beträgt. Die γ/γ'-Fehlpassung ist definiert als die normierte Differenz der Gitterkonstanten der beiden Phasen γ und γ' :
Um nun die Legierung kriechbeständig auszugestalten, wird die Zusammensetzung so gewählt, dass der Anteil an Wolfram in der γ-Matrix größer ist als in der γ'-Phase. Eine Legierung mit einer derartigen Zusammensetzung mit einem entsprechend hohen Wolframgehalt in der γ-Matrix weist die erforderlichen mechanische Festigkeit bei hohen Temperaturen und insbesondere die erforderliche Kriechbeständigkeit auf. Zwar ist es auch denkbar den Wolframgehalt insgesamt zu erhöhen, so dass dadurch auch der Wolframgehalt in der γ-Matrix erhöht wird. Allerdings wird dadurch die Dichte der Legierung erhöht, so dass es vorteilhaft ist das Verhältnis des Wolframgehalts von Matrix zu γ'- Ausscheidungen entsprechend zu verbessern. Die Zusammensetzung der Legierung kann innerhalb der angegebenen Grenzen bzw. Randbedingungen variiert werden.In order to design the alloy creep-resistant, the composition is selected such that the proportion of tungsten in the γ matrix is greater than in the γ 'phase. An alloy having such a composition with a correspondingly high tungsten content in the γ-matrix has the required mechanical strength at high temperatures and in particular the required creep resistance. Although it is also conceivable to increase the total tungsten content, thereby also increasing the tungsten content in the γ-matrix. However, this increases the density of the alloy so that it is advantageous to correspondingly improve the ratio of the tungsten content of matrix to γ'-precipitates. The composition of the alloy can be varied within the specified limits.
Nach einer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann die Legierungszusammensetzung so gewählt werden, dass bei einer Temperatur von 1050 °C bis 1100 °C der Wolframgehalt in der γ-Matrix ≥ 3,5 at.-% ist.According to one embodiment of the invention, the alloy composition can be chosen so that at a temperature of 1050 ° C to 1100 ° C, the tungsten content in the γ-matrix is ≥ 3.5 at .-%.
Vorzugsweise wird jedoch die chemische Zusammensetzung so gewählt, dass der Wolframgehalt in der γ-Matrix maximal ist.Preferably, however, the chemical composition is chosen so that the tungsten content in the γ-matrix is maximum.
Dies kann insbesondere dadurch erreicht werden, dass bei einem minimalen Aluminiumgehalt ein maximaler Tantalgehalt und ein mittlerer Titangehalt eingestellt wird. Es hat sich nämlich herausgestellt, dass insbesondere durch die Tantal- und Titangehalte sowie den Aluminiumgehalt die Konzentration von Wolfram in der γ-Matrix variiert werden kann.This can be achieved in particular by setting a maximum tantalum content and a mean titanium content with a minimum aluminum content. It has been found that the concentration of tungsten in the γ matrix can be varied, in particular, by the tantalum and titanium contents and the aluminum content.
Entsprechend können der Tantalgehalt und der Titangehalt zusammen auf einen Wert von ≥ 3 at.-%, vorzugsweise ≥ 4,5 at.-%, insbesondere ≥ 5 at.-% eingestellt werden.Accordingly, the tantalum content and the titanium content can be adjusted together to a value of ≥ 3 at .-%, preferably ≥ 4.5 at .-%, in particular ≥ 5 at .-%.
Nach einer weiteren Ausgestaltung kann eine Nickelbasislegierung nach der vorliegenden Erfindung folgende chemische Zusammensetzung aufweisen: sowie Rest Nickel und unvermeidbare Verunreinigungen.According to a further embodiment, a nickel-based alloy according to the present invention may have the following chemical composition: as well as the balance of nickel and unavoidable impurities.
Ferner kann der Schwefelgehalt auf Werte von 2 ppm, insbesondere 1 ppm (parts per million) Schwefel und darunter begrenzt werden, um die mechanischen Eigenschaften weiter zu verbessern.Furthermore, the sulfur content may be limited to values of 2 ppm, in particular 1 ppm (parts per million) of sulfur and below in order to further improve the mechanical properties.
Mit der erfindungsgemäßen Legierung können insbesondere Gegenstände, wie Komponenten von Gasturbinen, vorzugsweise Turbinenschaufeln, und dergleichen hergestellt werden, die einkristallin oder gerichtet erstarrt ausgebildet sein können.With the alloy according to the invention in particular articles, such as components of gas turbines, preferably turbine blades, and the like can be produced, which can be formed monocrystalline or directionally solidified.
Die beigefügte Figur zeigt einen Larson - Miller - Plot zur Veranschaulichung der Kriechbeständigkeit der erfindungsgemäßen Legierung im Vergleich zu bekannten Legierungen und einer Vergleichslegierung.The attached figure shows a Larson - Miller plot to illustrate the creep resistance of the alloy according to the invention in comparison with known alloys and a comparative alloy.
Gemäß der Erfindung wurde eine Legierung hergestellt, deren Zusammensetzung der nachfolgenden Tabelle entnommen werden kann (Legierung 3). Als Vergleichslegierungen wurden die Legierungen 1 und 2 gewählt, wobei die Legierung 1 im Wesentlichen in der chemischen Zusammensetzung derjenigen des Werkstoffs CMSX - 4 entspricht und die Legierung 2 eine Legierung mit einer ähnlichen Zusammensetzung wie der Werkstoff CMSX - 4 ist, jedoch um das Rhenium reduziert ist. Die Bestandteile der Legierungen sind in der Tabelle in Gewichtsprozent angegeben.
Wie sich aus der beigefügten Figur ergibt, die einen sogenannten harson - Miller - Plot zeigt, weist die erfindungsgemäße Legierung 3 eine ähnliche Kriechbeständigkeit auf, wie die Legierung 1, die einer Nickelbasissuperlegierung der zweiten Generation entspricht. Demgegenüber weist die Legierung 2 eine sehr viel geringere Kriechbeständigkeit auf, was durch den fehlenden Rheniumanteil und die fehlende Optimierung der Legierungszusammensetzung gemäß der vorliegenden Erfindung begründet ist. Damit wird deutlich, dass durch die erfindungsgemäße Lehre Nickelbasissuperlegierungen bereitgestellt werden können, die auf das schwer verfügbare Element Rhenium verzichten können, aber gleichwohl mechanische Hochtemperatureigenschaften, wie beispielsweise eine entsprechende Kriechbeständigkeit, bereitstellen können, wie bekannte rheniumhaltige Legierungen.As is apparent from the attached figure, which shows a so-called harson-Miller plot, the
Obwohl die vorliegende Erfindung anhand des Ausführungsbeispiels detailliert beschrieben worden ist, ist für den Fachmann selbstverständlich, dass die Erfindung nicht auf dieses Ausführungsbeispiel beschränkt ist, sondern dass vielmehr Abwandlungen in der Weise möglich sind, dass einzelne Merkmale weggelassen oder Merkmale andersartig kombiniert werden können, solange der Schutzbereich der beigefügten Ansprüche nicht verlassen wird. Die vorliegende Offenbarung offenbart sämtliche Kombinationen aller vorgestellter Einzelmerkmale.Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiment, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to this embodiment, but rather modifications are possible in the manner that individual features omitted or features can be combined differently, as long as the scope of the appended claims is not abandoned. The present disclosure discloses all combinations of all presented individual features.
