Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a
cellular automaton method for simulating static recrystallization of a
nickel-based
superalloy, comprising: establishing an initial
microstructure geometric model on the basis of an initial
microstructure metallographic picture; inputting static recrystallization conditions into the initial
microstructure geometric model, wherein the static recrystallization conditions comprise a simulated temperature, a strain velocity, and a strain; determining a
nucleation number in static recrystallization, wherein the
nucleation number is determined by a
nucleation rate; selecting a position for nucleation; calculating a driving force for growth of static recrystallization grains; and outputting a
simulation result. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, by means of the above
cellular automaton simulation method, preferential nucleation can be effectively performed at a high-energy position at a
grain boundary triple junction, and recrystallization evolution is more in line with reality, thereby accurately reflecting the morphology characteristics and transformation dynamics of microstructure evolution inside the material under the combined action of thermal activation,
grain boundary energy, etc., which cannot be realized by conventional
cellular automaton simulation methods.
