Stress generation during the quenching of large AA2618 forgings: Finite element computations and validation against neutron diﬀraction measurements

Jean-Marie Drezet, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Denis Carron

Solutionising and quenching are key steps in the fabrication of heat treatable aluminium parts such as AA2618 compressor impellers for turbochargers. Quenching not only dictates the mechanical characteristics of the product but also induces residual stress ...

Measurements and Modeling of Stress in Precipitation-Hardened Aluminum Alloy AA2618 during Gleeble Interrupted Quenching and Constrained Cooling

Jean-Marie Drezet, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Denis Carron

Solutionizing and quenching are the key steps in the fabrication of heat-treatable aluminum parts such as AA2618 compressor impellers for turbochargers as they highly impact the mechanical characteristics of the product. In particular, quenching induces re ...

Characterisation of precipitation upon cooling of an AA2618 Al-Cu-Mg alloy

Jean-Marie Drezet, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Denis Carron

The precipitation of an AA2618 Al-Cu-Mg alloy is monitored during isothermal holdings and continuous coolings. The Time-Temperature-Property and Continuous-Cooling-Precipitation diagrams of AA2618 are obtained using in-situ resistivity and differential sca ...

Quench-Induced Stresses in AA2618 Forgings for Impellers: A Multiphysics and Multiscale Problem

Jean-Marie Drezet, Gilles Michel, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Denis Carron

In the fabrication of heat-treatable aluminum parts such as AA2618 compressor impellers for turbochargers, solutionizing and quenching are key steps to obtain the required mechanical characteristics. Fast quenching is necessary to avoid coarse precipitatio ...

Prediction of quenching-induced stress distribution in 7XXX aluminium alloy thick plates using Gleeble interrupted quench tests

Jean-Marie Drezet, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Patrick Schloth, Denis Carron

In the fabrication of heat treatable aluminum parts for the aeronautic industry, quenching is a key step to obtain the required mechanical characteristics after aging. For thick plates, thermal gradients cause non-homogeneous plastic strain resulting in re ...

Quench induced residual stress prediction in heat treatable 7xxx aluminium alloy thick plates using Gleeble interrupted quench tests

Jean-Marie Drezet, Nicolas Paul Henry Chobaut, Patrick Schloth, Denis Carron

In this paper, a simple but realistic approach is presented to predict the as-quenched residual stress distribution in thick 7xxx aluminium alloy plates. Instead of modelling precipitation that occurs during quenching, a thermo-mechanical model is used who ...

Experimental and numerical analysis of the hot tearing susceptibility of a CuCrZr alloy

Jean-Marie Drezet, Denis Carron

The precipitation hardened CuCrZr alloy is used in fusion machines for the heat sink of intensely cooled plasma facing components (PFC) due to its good thermal and mechanical properties. Albeit, the feedback from its application in Tore Supra (French tokam ...

Etude de la sensibilité à la fissuration à chaud d’un alliage CuCrZr au cours du soudage par faisceau d’électrons

Jean-Marie Drezet, Denis Carron

L’alliage CuCrZr est utilisé dans les machines de fusion notamment pour des composants refroidis face au plasma, à cause de ses bonnes propriétés thermiques et mécaniques. Cependant, le retour d’expérience sur plusieurs tokamaks, et plus particulièrement T ...
