Phase transition kinetics in iron and steel during heating

Journal of engineering physics Aims and scope

Abstract

Similarity theory is used to analyze phase transformations in iron and steel during heating. A kinetic equation is obtained by assumption of self-similarity of the phase transition. Experimental data are processed and effective kinetic parameters determined. It is concluded from the results obtained that the elementary act of phase transition consists of a cooperate transition into the new phase of regions containing (1−2)·102 atoms.
