Mathematical Modeling of Diffusion-Controlled Processes of the Near-Surface Layer Structure Evolution of W−Cu Composite Under Hightemperature Gas Flow

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

The article presents the results of mathematical modeling of copper leakage from a 30 μm-thick near-surface layer of the experimental samples of a W–18% Cu composite (VD-MP grade) as a result of exposure to a hightemperature (1500 K) gas flow caused by the diffusion of copper particles located in the bulk and at the tungsten grain boundaries (GBs) along the latter. The grain-boundary diffusion parameters in this composite are evaluated in the temperature range, where the copper particles are in a liquid state. Using the known experimental data, the value of the high-temperature coefficient of grain-boundary copper diffusion in the polycrystalline tungsten matrix of the composite is calculated within the framework of the constructed computer model. The value of the obtained coefficient D = 7·10–10 m2/s is found to be close to that for diffusion in liquid copper.
