Abstract
ABSTRACT A new model has been developed to predict austenite ferrite transformation kinetics in steels. For each alloying element, the concentration profile is computed solving a unique diffusion equation (including the 2 phases and the interface). The interface is described assuming linear variation of chemical potentials, saving thus computational time. Interface motion is driven by the minimisation of Gibbs energy. The model naturally reproduces the transition between thermodynamic equilibria (Para equilibrium, Local equilibrium with negligible partitioning, Local equilibrium) during heating. The validity of the model for reverse transformation has been validated on ternary and quaternary systems Fe-C-(Mn-Si-Mo) on decarburisation experiments.
期刊介绍:
Philosophical Magazine Letters is the rapid communications part of the highly respected Philosophical Magazine, which was first published in 1798. Its Editors consider for publication short and timely contributions in the field of condensed matter describing original results, theories and concepts relating to the structure and properties of crystalline materials, ceramics, polymers, glasses, amorphous films, composites and soft matter. Articles emphasizing experimental, theoretical and modelling studies on solids, especially those that interpret behaviour on a microscopic, atomic or electronic scale, are particularly appropriate.
Manuscripts are considered on the strict condition that they have been submitted only to Philosophical Magazine Letters , that they have not been published already, and that they are not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
