Investigation of Start Block and Corresponding Influence for Grain Selection during Casting of Single-Crystal Superalloys

To figure out the impact of the parameters of a starter block (the diameter D and height H) on grain selection and the selecting mechanism, a spiral selector was measured with optical microscopy (OM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) during the solidification of Ni-based single crystal (SX...

description To figure out the impact of the parameters of a starter block (the diameter D and height H) on grain selection and the selecting mechanism, a spiral selector was measured with optical microscopy (OM) and electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) during the solidification of Ni-based single crystal (SX) superalloys. In this experiment, starter blocks with diameters of 8 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, and 30 mm and a height of 30 mm were designed to find the best parameters. Recommendations for optimizing starter block geometry are provided.
