M202 F2023 Assignment #6 Due: Dec 6th, 2023 at 4pm 1. Using the heat treatments and the TTT diagram ( eutectoid steel) shown below: Draw and Label i) the final microstructure including microconstituent(s) and phase(s) present ii) the correct phase morphology (e.g. lamellar or spherical etc.) Determine : iii) the approximate percentages of each microconstituent and phase 3 marks for each heat treatment (21marks total) *Assume that each specimen was held at 760°C sufficiently long to reach equilibrium before applying the cooling conditions shown below* a) Cool rapidly to 650 o C, hold for 1000 s, and then quench to room temperature. b) Reheat the specimen in part a) to 700 o C for 2 days (Hint Spheroidization) c) Cool rapidly to 570 o C, hold for 3000 s and then quench to room temperature. d) Cool rapidly to 375 o C, hold for 100 s, then quench to room temperature. e) Rapidly cool to 630 o C, hold for 10 s, rapidly cool to 265 o C, hold for 1000 s, and then quench to room temperature. f) Rapidly cool to 250 o C, hold for 100 s, then rapidly quench to room temperature. Reheat to 371 o C for 1 hour and slowly cool to room temperature. g) Which of the above heat treatments will give a steel with: i. the highest UTS, and why. ii. the highest ductility, and why. iii. the highest Young’s modulus of elasticity, and why. NOTE * Bainite, Tempered Martensite and Pearlite are microconstituents composed of ferrite and cementite. Martensite is considered both a microconstituent and a metastable phase*
a) b)
c) d) e) f) g) i) ii) iii)
2 . A 1045 steel is subjected to the following heat treatments. Determine for each heat treatment (Note : you do NOT have to draw and label) i) the microconstituent(s) and phase(s) present - treat primary/proeutectoid ferrite as a distinct phase. ii) the approximate percentage (%) of each PHASE (consider only the total amount of ferrite where applicable ) in each heat treatment. 2 marks each (8 marks total) a) Heat to 900°C and hold long enough for the sample to come to equilibrium. Cool rapidly to 700°C and hold for 30 s. Quench to room temperature. b) Heat to 900°C and hold long enough for the sample to come to equilibrium. Cool rapidly to 400°C and hold for 10 s. Quench to room temperature. c) Heat to 700°C and hold long enough for the sample to come to equilibrium. Quench to room temperature and then reheat to 250°C for 5 minutes and then air cool. (Hint: 1b in first question) d) Heat to 900°C and hold long enough for the sample to come to equilibrium. Cool rapidly to 600°C and hold for 30 s. Quench to room temperature.
