Transcribed Image Text:11- For the iron-carbon phase diagram shown below:
a.
Write down the eutectic, eutectoid, and peritectic reactions and the temperature at which they
happen.
b.
For an alloy that has 0.4% carbon what draw a schematic for the expected microstructure and the
estimate the composition of each phase, and based on this determine % of each phase at 1500 °C.
and 1200 °C.
C₂
Often, the properties of multiphase alloys may be approximated by the relationship
E (alloy) = EaVa+ EBVB
where E represents a specific property (modulus of elasticity, hardness, etc.), and V is the volume
fraction. The subscripts a and ß denote the existing phases or microconstituents. Use this
relationship to determine the approximate Brinell hardness of a 99.6 wt% Fe-0.4 wt% C alloy.
Assume Brinell hardnesses of 80 and 280 for ferrite and pearlite, respectively, and that volume
fractions may be approximated by mass fractions.
