A diffusion model for the transformation of S-ferrite in Type 316 weld metal

Research output: Journal Publications and ReviewsRGC 22 - Publication in policy or professional journal

Abstract

A random-walk theory has been developed to describe the process of diffusion to randomly distributed sinks with complex surface geometries. The theory is applicable to interconnected sinks which cannot be divided into isolated imaginary cells as used in classical diffusion theories. The theory can satisfactorily predict the characteristic time of the δ-ferrite transformation in Type 316 weld metal at temperatures above 700°C. © 1980 Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
