Definitions

  • the present invention relates to strong heatand corrosion-resistant alloys and, more particularly, to strong, heatand corrosion-resistant nickel-chromium-cobalt alloys.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a novel heat-resistant article having substantially enhanced characteristics at temperatures in excess of about 1700 F.
  • the invention also contemplates providing a novel turbine structure having substantially enhanced characteristics at temperatures in excess of about 1700" F.
  • FIGURE is a graph relating stress and a parameter commonly known as the Larson-Miller parameter.
  • the present invention contemplates novel nickel-chromiurn-cobalt alloys and articles, structures, etc., made therefrom having substantially enhanced characteristics at elevated temperatures, and, particularly when subjected to temperatures in excess of about 1700 F comprising about 6% to about 12% chromium, about to about 30% cobalt, about 1% to about 8% molybdenum, about 0.2% to about 2% vanadium, about 4% to about 9% aluminum, about 0.5% to about 6.5% titanium, about 8% to about 12% aluminum plus titanium, about 0.001% to about 0.1% boron, about 0.01% to about 0.25% zirconium, about 0.01% to about 0.5% carbon, with the balance being essentially nickel.
  • balance essentially is used to include in addition to nickel in the balance of the alloy, small amounts of impurities such as sulfur, phosphorous, etc., and incidental elements such as niobium, tantalum, manganese, silicon, copper, iron, etc., in amounts which do not adversely affect the novel advantageous characteristics of nitecl States Patent ice the alloy.
  • the novel alloys of the present invention can contain up to about 5% niobium, up to about 2% copper, up to about 1% silicon, up to about 2% manganese, up to about 0.2% calcium, up toabout 4% tantalum and up to about 10% iron and more advantageously, up to about 2% iron
  • the alloys of the present invention exhibit excellent lives to rupture at elevated temperatures, for example, up to at least about hours lifewhen tested under a load of 35,000 pounds per-square inch (p.s.i.) at 1700 F. in combination with a reasonable amount of ductility, for example, at least about 4% elongation under the aforestated conditions.
  • the alloys can be used in the as-cast condition but can advantageously be treated by heating for about /2 to about 4 hours at a temperature of about 2100 F. to about 2200 F. under an inert atmosphere such as helium, argon, etc. The alloys are then cooled rather rapidly to a temperature below about 1700 F. while maintaining them in an inert atmosphere.
  • the alloys and articles made therefrom may be aged in service or may be aged byheating for about 1 to about 20 hours at temperatures of about 1400 F. to about 1700 F. It is characteristic of the alloys of the present invention that they can be readily cast and that they give excellent mold reproduction making them especially suited for use in the precision casting process.
  • alloys in accordance with the invention are usually melted from either "a calculated charge or from remelt stock under an inert atmosphere (including vacuum) and are cast at temperatures between about 2500 F. and about 3100 F. into molds preheated to about 1000 F. to about 1800 F. If melted at atmospheric pressure a final treatment with calcium silicide prior to casting is advantageous. When produced in this manner, alloys in accordance with the invention may be subjected in use under oxidizing conditions to temperatures up to about 2100 F.
  • Alloy No. A is representative of the best commercial alloys of the prior art. Alloys set forth in Table II were produced in various conditions as set forth in Table III and were stress-rupture tested under the conditions set forth in Table IV.

  • V.M. Melted under vacuum.
  • the alloys of the present invention exhibit, in addition to high strength at elevated temperatures, good resistance to thermal shock.
  • the alloys of the present invention withstand many thousand cycles without failure. For example, one alloy in accordance with the present invention withstood 5850 cycles prior to failure as indicated by the formation of the first crack 0.125 inch in length. Under same conditions prior art alloys in commercial use fail in one to two thousand cycles.
