Abstract:The die forging process of powder metallurgy Ti-47Al-2Cr-2Nb-0.2W (mole fraction, %) alloy blade was studied by the way of numerical simulation using Deform-3D finite element software. The effects of preheating temperature and upper die speed on the distribution of effective strain field and effective stress field, as well as the load of upper die were analyzed. The results show that with the increase of the preheating temperature and the decrease of the upper die speed, the distribution of the effective strain field and the effective stress field of the blade forgings becomes more uniform, which is beneficial to improve the uniformity of the blade microstructure. During the die forging process, due to the increase of TiAl alloy work hardening and the friction between the forging blank and the die, the load continues to increase, and the increase in the preheating temperature and the decrease of the upper die speed can significantly reduce the load of upper die. The optimal deformation process parameters of die forging for powder metallurgy TiAl alloy blade are preheating temperature of 1 200 ℃ and upper die speed of 0.5 mm/s.
