The hot deformation behavior of Waspaloy alloy has been investigated by two-pass hot cogging process. The paper presents theoretical end experimental analysis of deformations and microstructural evolutions. The results of a thermo-mechanical simulation for the spatial hot cogging process on the shaped anvils with the application of the three–dimensional finite element method, are presented. The numerical calculation gave an assessment of the effective strain, mean stress and temperature distributions in the work-piece. Models for predicting the evolution of microstructure were developed for dynamic recrystallization and grain growth phenomena. The influence of shape of the anvils on the grain size after dynamic recrystallization was analyzed. The numerical analysis was performed using a commercial program "DEFORM 3D" with thermo-mechanical and microstructural evolution coupled. The results are compared with the experimental data, a good agreement between the predicted and experimental results was obtained.
