Abstract

An analytical evaluation of homogenization of aluminum alloy AA2219 with different grain sizes is performed. The homogenization parameters are computed with the use of diffusion laws and under the assumption that a low-melting eutectic can form in alloys of the Al-Cu system. With allowance for the difference in the grain sizes a two-stage homogenization regime is shown to be optimum for alloy AA2219.
