Abstract
Constant direct current (DC) arc and ultrasonic frequency pulse (UFP) arc were employed as heat source to fabricate Inconel 690 alloy components by wire-arc directed energy deposition (WADED). The effects of ultrasonic frequency pulse arc on microstructure and mechanical properties of the deposits and interfaces were investigated. With UFP arc, the microstructure of deposit transformed from columnar dendrites to a mixture of columnar dendrites and equiaxed dendrites, and the average grain size reduced by 40 % approximately. Moreover, the carbides in deposit and interface were decreased with UFP arc mode. The deposit in UFP-WADED component presented improved hardness value compared with that in DC-WADED component. Although UFP arc has a minimal influence on the tensile property improvement of deposit, it can particularly enhance the elongation of interface. The refinement of grains and the reduction of carbides with UFP arc were important reasons for the change in properties.
期刊介绍:
Materials Science and Engineering A provides an international medium for the publication of theoretical and experimental studies related to the load-bearing capacity of materials as influenced by their basic properties, processing history, microstructure and operating environment. Appropriate submissions to Materials Science and Engineering A should include scientific and/or engineering factors which affect the microstructure - strength relationships of materials and report the changes to mechanical behavior.
