Effect of the Geometry of an Ingot on its Chemical Heterogeneity. Part I

  • Published:
Metallurgist Aims and scope

Certain general trends in the radial and axial distribution of segregates in forging ingots are identified based on computer modeling and a generalization of data from studies of chemical heterogeneity in such ingots. Recommendations are developed on optimizing the geometry of forging ingots to minimize this heterogeneity.
