Abstract: | Experiments were conducted with Inconel 718 at high temperatures to evaluate the rate of oxidation of the material over as wide a temperature range as possible, as well as to determine the high-temperature failure limit of the material. Samples of Inconel 718 were inserted into preheated furnaces at temperatures ranging from 973 to 1620 K and oxidized in air for varying periods of time. After being oxidized in air at a constant temperature for the prescribed time and then being allowed to cool, the samples were reweighed to determine their mass gain due to the uptake of oxygen. From these mass-gain measurements, it was possible to identify three regimes of oxidation for Inconel 718: a low-temperature regime in which the samples behaved as if passivated after an initial period of transient oxidation, an intermediate-temperature regime in which the rate of oxidation was limited by diffusion and exhibited a constant parabolic rate dependence, and a high-temperature regime in which material deformation and damage accompanied an accelerated oxidation rate above the parabolic regime. |
