Grain refinement of as-cast superalloy IN718 under action of low voltage pulsed magnetic field LI Ying-ju, MA Xiao-ping, YANG Yuan-sheng Institute of Metal Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Shenyang 110016, China Received 18 October 2010; accepted 16 December 2010 Abstract: The grain refinement of superalloy IN718 under the action of low voltage pulsed magnetic field was investigated. The experimental results show that fine equiaxed grains are acquired under the action of low voltage pulsed magnetic field. The refinement effect of the pulsed magnetic field is affected by the melt cooling rate and superheating. The decrease of cooling rate and superheating enhance the refinement effect of the low voltage pulsed magnetic field. The magnetic force and the melt flow during solidification are modeled and simulated to reveal the grain refinement mechanism. It is considered that the melt convection caused by the pulsed magnetic field, as well as cooling rate and superheating contributes to the refinement of solidified grains. Key words: superalloy; grain refinement; low voltage pulsed magnetic field; cooling rate; superheating 1 Introduction solidification time, and also lead to the increase of the initiation and finishing solidification temperature. GAO et al [11] comparatively studied the structural Grain refinement is an effective method to improve the deformability and mechanical properties of superalloy. Fine grain casting of superalloy mainly transformation of low-melting pure Al and high-melting stainless steel under external pulsed magnetic field. The results showed that the refinement effect of PMF was includes the thermal control method [1], the chemical approach [2?3] and the dynamic method [4?5]. Up to now, new methods are still expected to be developed for more obvious for pure Al than for stainless steel. Recently, the application of a low voltage pulsed magnetic field (LVPMF) on solidification，which is more refining as-cast microstructure of sup
