16、ste-nite to martensite starts during cooling4. Summary of Practice4.1 This practice is based upon the principle that, duringheating and cooling of steels, dimensional changes occur as aresult of both thermal expansion associated with temperaturechange and phase transformation. In this practice, sens

17、itivehigh-speed dilatometer equipment is used to detect and mea-sure the changes in dimension that occur as functions of bothtime and temperature during defined thermal cycles. Theresulting data are converted to discrete values of strain forspecific values of time and temperature during the thermalc

18、ycle. Strain as a function of time or temperature, or both, canthen be used to determine the beginning and completion of oneor more phase transformations.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice is used to provide steel phase transforma-tion data required for use in numerical models for the predic-t

19、ion of microstructures, properties, and distortion during steelmanufacturing, forging, casting, heat treatment, and welding.Alternatively, the practice provides end users of steel andfabricated steel products the phase transformation data requiredfor selecting steel grades for a given application by

20、 determin-ing the microstructure resulting from a prescribed thermalcycle.5.1.1 There are available several computer models designedto predict the microstructures, mechanical properties, anddistortion of steels as a function of thermal processing cycle.Their use is predicated on the availability of

21、accurate andconsistent thermal and transformation strain data. Strain, boththermal and transformation, developed during thermal cyclingis the parameter used in predicting both microstructure andproperties, and for estimating distortion. It should be noted thatthese models are undergoing continued de

22、velopment. Thisprocess is aimed, among other things, at establishing a directlink between discrete values of strain and specific microstruc-ture constituents in steels. This practice describes a standard-ized method for measuring strain during a defined thermalcycle.5.1.2 This practice is suitable f

23、or providing data for com-puter models used in the control of steel manufacturing,forging, casting, heat-treating, and welding processes. It is alsouseful in providing data for the prediction of microstructuresand properties to assist in steel alloy selection for end-useapplications.5.1.3 This pract

24、ice is suitable for providing the data neededfor the construction of transformation diagrams that depict themicrostructures developed during the thermal processing ofsteels as functions of time and temperature. Such diagramsprovide a qualitative assessment of the effects of changes inthermal cycle o

25、n steel microstructure. Appendix X2 describesconstruction of these diagrams.5.2 It should be recognized that thermal and transformationstrains, which develop in steels during thermal cycling, aresensitive to chemical composition. Thus, anisotropy in chemi-cal composition can result in variability in

26、 strain, and can affectthe results of strain determinations, especially determination ofvolumetric strain. Strains determined during cooling are sen-sitive to the grain size of austenite, which is determined by theheating cycle. The most consistent results are obtained whenaustenite grain size is ma

27、intained between ASTM grain sizes of5 to 8. Finally, the eutectoid carbon content is defined as 0.8 %for carbon steels. Additions of alloying elements can changethis value, along with Ac1and Ac3temperatures. Heatingcycles need to be employed, as described below, to ensurecomplete formation of austen
