Abstract

Evolution of micro-pores in a third-generation single-crystal nickel-based superalloy during solution heat treatment at 1603 K (1330 °C) was investigated by X-ray computed tomography. 3D information including morphology, size, number, and volume fraction of micro-pores formed during solidification (S-pores) and solution (H-pores) was analyzed. The growth behaviors of both S-pores and H-pores can be related to the vacancy formation and diffusion during heat treatment.
