Effect of the capsule on deformation and densification behavior of nickel-based superalloy compact during hot isostatic pressing

摘要

The Shima yield criterion used in finite element analysis for nickel-based superalloy powder compact during hot isostatic pressing(HIP)was modified through uniaxial compression experiments.The influence of cylindrical capsule characteristics on FGH4096M superalloy powder compact deformation and densification behavior during HIP was investigated through simulations and experiments.Results revealed the simulation shrinkage prediction fitted well with the experimental shrinkage including a maximum shrinkage error of 1.5%.It was shown that the axial shrinkage was 1.7%higher than radial shrinkage for a cylindrical capsule with the size ofϕ50 mm×100 mm due to the force arm difference along the axial and radial direction of the capsule.The stress deviated from the isostatic state in the capsule led to the uneven shrinkage and non-uniform densification of the powder compact.The ratio of the maximum radial displacement to axial displacement increased from 0.47 to 0.75 with the capsule thickness increasing from 2 to 4 mm.The pressure transmission is related to the capsule thickness,the capsule material performance,and physical parameters in the HIP process.
