Abstract

The invention discloses a directional solidification method capable of reducing the number of freckles in a variable-section casting. By adding a radiation baffle on the top of a formwork of the variable-section casting, cooling rate or solidification rate is increased, so that freckles are removed. By means of the radiation baffle, radiant heat of a heating body on the upper portion is blocked, heat absorbed by liquid phase is reduced, so that casting cooling rate is increased, dendritic structure can be refined, thermosolutal convection flow resistance is increased, solidification rate is increased, and the possibility that dendritic growth rate is larger than interdendritic flow rate is increased. By the adoption of the method, cooling rate and solidification rate can be increased during casting solidification, and the possibility of freckle formation is reduced. Specific implementation is easy, material sources are wide, consumption is low, and the original formwork does not need to be changed.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of directional solidification of nickel-based superalloys, in particular to a directional solidification method capable of reducing freckles in castings with cross-section changes. Background technique [0002] Because the size and quality of gas turbine blades are much larger than those of aeroengine blades. Therefore, the commonly used high-speed solidification method (HRS method) directional solidification technology that eliminates transverse grain boundaries and obtains directional grains or single crystals increases the probability of casting defects such as freckles due to insufficient cooling capacity and other reasons. Freckle defect is a chain-like macro-segregation composed of shrinkage porosity, eutectic, broken dendrite arms, etc., usually appearing on the surface of directional solidified castings, which reduces the high-temperature deformation resistance of castings. [0003] At present, it is generall...
