13、tals, lose strength as operating temperatures increase.Composition is of importance not only because of its effect on the basic properties of materials at elevatedtemperatures, but also because in cast irons it influences growth resulting from oxidation and microstructuralchanges. Irons may be used

14、in most atmospheres at temperatures up to 750 F without growth being a seriousfactor. Beyond 900 F graphitization can cause growth and above 1200 F internal oxidation can cause growthunless sufficient alloy is present to prevent it.Deterioration of properties at high temperatures is in general time-

15、dependent as well as temperature-dependent. Even at temperatures where strength has been greatly reduced, many useful hours of life can beobtained from a structure if proper allowances are made in the initial design. Where applications involvesustained stress at high temperature, the most valuable i

16、nformation for the designer is the creep rate at thetemperature and stress involved. However, creep rate data generally involve long time tests and as aconsequence complete information has not been generated for all materials under all conditions. Instead, ithas been the practice for many years to c

17、ompare materials in shorter duration tests. Such tests are calledstress-to-rupture tests or more simply stress-rupture tests. These are conducted in the temperature ranges ofinterest but usually at much greater loads than any realistic design. In general, materials showing superiorstress-rupture lif

18、e have the lowest creep rates. This type of information has been used primarily for materialdevelopment work. It can be used by the designer, however, to select better material on a comparison basis.Several types of iron are included in this section to show trends; they are representative of broad c

19、lasses ofirons used commercially, and for which thermal data are available in the literature.4. Effect of Elevated Temperature on Mechanical Properties4.1 Tensile StrengthThe tensile strength of ferrous materials generally shows small changes from roomtemperature up to 600800 F, at higher temperatur

20、e the strengths usually fall rather rapidly. The presence ofalloying elements which affect the stability of the higher strength microstructures tends to delay this effect orraise the temperature at which rapid loss of strength occurs. In some ferrous alloys, changes in microstructureoccur at tempera

21、tures between room temperature and 800 F which may cause small changes in strength and,in fact, may cause reversals in the strength versus temperature curve. In Figure 1, examples of tensile strengthversus temperature for some typical cast irons are illustrated in comparison with the behavior of low

22、 carbonsteel. Generally, the changes in structure which occur over this temperature range are associated withtempering after hardening. These changes are irreversible.SAE J125 Reaffirmed MAY88-3-FIGURE 1ELEVATED TEMPERATURE TENSILE STRENGTH4.2 Stress Rupture PropertiesWhere metals are required to su

30、T 1000 FSAE J125 Reaffirmed MAY88-5-4.3 Creep Properties of IronsAnother important temperature effect on cast irons is the effect of creep orelongation per hour at a given stress and temperature. These tests are difficult to run on cast irons because ofthe growth and oxidation phenomena. Figure 4 sh

31、ows typical creep curves for some SAE and alloyed castirons at 800 and 1000 F. A creep curve for a plain carbon steel at 1000 F is included for comparison. Thevalues shown on the creep rate curves in Figure 4 include any growth that occurred during the tests. Thisallows these figures to be used as d

32、esign parameters.FIGURE 4CREEP PROPERTIES OF CAST IRONS4.4 Growth of Cast IronGrowth in irons is generally defined as the permanent increase in volume which occursafter prolonged exposure to constant elevated temperatures or after repeated heating and cooling.The mechanism of growth is rather comple

33、x in irons owing to the fact that it results from several different andindependent phenomena; which phenomena occur in any given case is dependent upon the temperatureinvolved, the environment, the chemical composition and structure of the iron, and the severity of cycling, if any.The main phenomena

34、 which cause growth in irons at temperature are as follows:1. Oxidation: This may progress into the body of an iron along graphite flakes or cracks, resulting in agreater dimensional change than in materials where oxidation is limited to the surfaces.2. Graphitization: If the iron has carbides in it

35、s structure and is heated to a temperature which willdecompose the carbide structures (this temperature will vary considerably with chemistry), theresulting ferrite and graphite will occupy considerably greater volume than the original carbide.3. Crazing or Thermal Cracking: When an iron is repeated

36、ly heated and cooled through a transformationrange, the stresses, imposed by the expansion and contraction resulting from the transformation, willcause crazing.Ductile and malleable irons are less affected by oxidation than gray iron. Some investigators have indicatedthat this difference is a result

37、 of graphite carbon shapes. Alloyed irons are usually less susceptible to growth,and this can either be due to an increased stability of the structure at the temperature involved, improvedoxidation resistance, or a change of the critical temperature so the part does not experience a transformation i

38、nthe temperature range. Examples of the growth experienced by some common SAE irons are shown in Figure5.SAE J125 Reaffirmed MAY88-6-FIGURE 5CAST IRON GROWTH AT 1000 F4.5 Endurance LimitRelatively little data are available on the endurance limit of cast irons at elevatedtemperatures. The curves in F

39、igure 6 show the relationship between the tensile strength and the endurancelimit of a low carbon equivalent low alloy gray cast iron up to a temperature of 1100 F. It can be seen that theendurance ratio is nearly constant from room temperature to 1100 F for this iron. It is probable that for mostgr

40、ay cast irons heated in air, the endurance ratio would remain nearly constant up to a temperature at whichchanges occur in the structure or severe oxidation takes place. A second set of curves for an austenitic grayiron are included in Figure 6. This shows how the endurance limit is affected by stru

41、cture.FIGURE 6EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE ON STRENGTH AND ENDURANCE LIMITSAE J125 Reaffirmed MAY88-7-5. Effect of Temperature on Physical Properties5.1 Modulus of ElasticityThe modulus of elasticity at room temperature varies considerably for the varioustypes of iron. It is difficult to give representativ

42、e figures; but, in general, it can be said that the cast irons do notshow a marked drop in modulus up to 800 F.5.2 Specific Heatof ferritic malleable iron:The specific heat of pearlitic malleable iron is substantially the same as that of ferritic malleable.In gray cast iron the specific heat varies

43、with the temperature and the structure; therefore, a temperature rangewhich causes a change in microstructure may result in a reversal in the specific heat versus temperature curvewhich will result in a curve such as Figure 7. A commonly used figure for average cast irons is 0.13 cal/g-C.FIGURE 7SPE

44、CIFIC HEAT VERSUS TEMPERATURE FOR A GRAY CAST IRON (4)5.3 Thermal ConductivityThe thermal conductivity of gray cast iron varies considerably with both temperatureand composition. Most plain and alloy gray irons will have a thermal conductivity of 0.10 to 0.135 cal-cm/s-cm2-C at 100 C and this will d

45、rop to about 0.09-0.115 cal-cm/s-cm2C at 400 C.
