Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Influência da convecção termossolutal na transição colunar/equiaxial em ligas Al-Si sob condições unidirecionais e transitórias de extração de calor(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011) MOUTINHO, Andréa Moreira; MOREIRA, Antonio Luciano Seabra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0667768010106721The macrostructure of cast ingots consists of three different zones, that is, the chill, columnar, and equiaxed zones respectively. The origin of each one has been the subject of numerous experimental and theoretical researches in the field of metallurgy because of the well-known correlation between grain structures and mechanical properties. The structure is almost determined in the solidification process, so it is essential to control the solidification process. Despite this effort there is as yet no way that the macrostructure of an ingot can be predicted nor even any clear agreement on how the columnar to equiaxed transition (CET) actually occurs. The CET during solidification has been studied for many years and experimental observations show that the position of the CET and the size of the equiaxed grains is dependent on thermal conditions associated with the casting process including alloy system, alloy composition, melt superheat, mold temperature, mold material, heat-transfer coefficients at the metal-mold interface, cooling rate, casting size, melt convection, transport of solute, and the concentration of nucleating particles. The objective of this contribution is the presentation of experimental results on the CET in three hypoeutectic Al-Si alloys during the horizontal unsteady-state directional solidification in a cooled mold. The thermal contact condition at the metal/mold interface was also standardized with the heat extracting surface being polished. Thermocouples have been connected with the metal, and the time– temperature data have been recorded automatically. A combined theoretical and experimental approach is applied to quantitatively determine the solidification thermal parameters such as transient heat-transfer coefficients, tip growth rates, thermal gradients, and cooling rates which affect the structure transition. The experimental and calculated values have shown a very good agreement. A comparative study between the results of this article and those from the literature proposed to investigate the CET during upward vertical solidification of Al-Si hypoeutectic alloys is also presented.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Influência da convecção termossolutal nos espaçamentos dendríticos primários durante a solidificação direcional horizontal de ligas Sn-Pb(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2011) NOGUEIRA, Márcio Roberto Alves; ROCHA, Otávio Fernandes Lima da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0702326922309672; MOREIRA, Antonio Luciano Seabra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0667768010106721In order to investigate the effect of thermosolutal convection on the primary dendritic spacings of Pb–Sn hypoeutectic alloys, horizontal directional solidification experiments have been carried out. For this purpose, a water-cooled solidification experimental apparatus was developed and specimens were solidified in unsteady state heat flow conditions. A combined theoretical and experimental approach is developed to quantitatively determine the solidification thermal parameters: tip growth rates, thermal gradients and cooling rates. The results also include transient metal/mold heat transfer coefficients, determined from comparisons between the experimental thermal profiles in castings and the simulations provided by a finite difference heat flow program. A comparison between theoretical models that predict primary dendritic spacings with the experimental results generated in this study is conducted. A comparative study between some experimental data of this work and those from the literature proposed to predict the primary dendritic spacings during upward and downward vertical unsteady-state directional solidification of Sn–Pb alloys have is presented. The observation of the microstructures has indicated that the primary dendritic spacings have been affected by the direction of growth, increasing in conditions of horizontal solidification when compared with those obtained during upward and downward vertical solidification of Sn–Pb hypoeutectic alloys analyzed.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Influência dos parâmetros térmicos de solidificação na transição colunar/equiaxial em ligas do sistema Sn-Pb sob condições transitórias de extração de calor(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-07-04) MOUTINHO, Daniel Joaquim da Conceição; ROCHA, Otávio Fernandes Lima da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0702326922309672; MOREIRA, Antonio Luciano Seabra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0667768010106721This work carry out a theoretical experimental study about the influence of solidification thermal parameters on the columnar to equiaxed transition of Sn 5%Pb, Sn 15%Pb, and Sn 20% Pb and Sn 25% Pb alloys during the horizontal unidirectional solidification process cooled by water which considers the solute convection effects. The tip growth rates and cooling rates have been experimentally calculated and the obtained results are compared with those of a numerical model. The columnar to equiaxed transition position is determined through the macrostructure characterization of the studied alloys. The experimental results have shown that the thermosolutal convection influences the CET occurrence. Finally, a comparative experimental study is done for the studied alloys when directionally solidified in different water-cooled systems.Item Acesso aberto (Open Access) Projeto, construção e aferição de um dispositivo de solidificação unidirecional horizontal refrigerado à água(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2007-04-16) SILVA, José Nazareno Santos da; ROCHA, Otávio Fernandes Lima da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0702326922309672; MOREIRA, Antonio Luciano Seabra; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0667768010106721The aim is about the solidification structures of thermal parameters is important to mechanic behaviour of the metallic materials. These structures are influenced by means of heat removal conditions of metal/ mould system during the solidification process. Despite of this, some mathematic models have been developed to appraise the structural and thermal variation mainly considering the upright unidirectional solidification process. This research plans to project, construct and check up one device in order to be able to represent the horizontal unidirectional solidification process cooled by water which considers the solute convection effects. To check up the solidification device, a comparative study was done between the representative experimental bend of metal´s thickness solidification related to time to Al-4%Cu, Sn-5%Pb, Sn-15%Pb e Sn-20%Pb alloys. The present results shows positive consonances. The unidirectional aspect of the heat removal constructed was estimate trough the macrostructure characterization of the studied alloys. Finally a comparative study is done between values of the interface metal/mold heat transfer coefficient obtained trough other newly works developed about ascendant and descendent unidirectional solidification process.
