However, these parts in the as-cast condition are restricted in the applications in which they can be employed due to poor mechanical properties. These poor mechanical properties stem from two fundamental issues of the alloy in the as-cast condition. The first issue with these castings is caused by inhomogeneity in the casting alloy during solidification. This non-uniformity is caused by inconsistent cooling within the mold and leads to an uneven dispersion of coarsely formed precipitates in the alloy matrix. This in turn leads to poor tensile properties in the as-cast condition. The second issue inherent in as-cast microstructure is porosity. This porosity is classified as two distinct varieties, shrinkage porosity and gas porosity. Shrinkage porosity is caused by the volume of the liquid metal being greater than the volume of the solid metal. Gas porosity is caused by the high solubility of hydrogen in the liquid aluminum melt and the tendency for the hydrogen to come out of solution as temperature is reduced. Porosity is detrimental to the ductility, fracture toughness and fatigue behavior of the casting. Fortunately, for the casting industry, the issues inherent in the as-cast condition can be alleviated with post casting processing. Solution heat treating followed by aging is employed to refine the microstructure of the alloy and improve mechanical and physical properties. A densification process can eliminate the porosity in the casting. Heat treatment for cast aluminum alloys starts with a thermal process to solutionize the alloy matrix, known as solution heat treatment, or solutionizing. Solution heat treatment uses an elevated temperature heat treatment to dissolve the second phase precipitates, change the morphology of the eutectic silicon phase and make the primary phase a homogeneous solid solution. In the case of A356, the precipitates are Mg2Si. In order to prevent the Mg2Si particulates from again precipitating out of solution, a rapid quench is employed. Quenching the castings also insures that the homogenization that results from the solutionizing step is maintained. To attain maximum strength in the casting a precipitation-hardening or aging heat treatment is employed. Artificial aging takes place at slightly elevated temperatures, 165°C, while natural aging occurs at room temperature. The homogenization attained in the previous steps insures a uniform dispersion of the particulates grown in the aging step. Artificial aging to reach maximum strength deems the temper of the casting as T6, where natural aging gives the casting the temper designation T4. Hot isostatic pressing, or HIP, is typically performed before heat treatment and is a means of eliminating the porosity in castings. HIP surrounds the casting with a pressurized gas, which applies a hydrostatic force to the surface of the casting while at elevated temperature to facilitate material flow. The dominant densification mechanism in the casting during the initial stages of the HIP process is plastic flow. As castings spend additional time at maximum temperature and pressure the dominant densification mechanisms change, first to power-law creep, then to diffusional creep mechanisms (Nabarro-Herring, and Coble creep). The overall effect is the "welding" of isolated porosity within the casting [Atkinson]. Due to the time intensive nature of the HIP process, several variants of the original process have been developed to maximize the returns of the HIP process while minimizing process time and cost for the production of critical aluminum castings. Liquid hot isostatic pressing (LHIP) uses a heated incompressible liquid as the pressurizing media [Chandley]. The guiding principle behind this manufacturing process states that the majority of the time spent in the traditional gas HIP process is spent pressurizing and depressurizing the compressible gas media. In the LHIP process, the castings are immersed in the liquid salt bath and the entire salt bath container is pressurized via a hydraulic ram very quickly. By this method, maximum pressure can be reached in seconds rather then the several hours required in the HIP process. Furthermore, this process could be integrated into a continuous casting process [Chandley]. However, time spent at peak pressure for an A356 casting in the LHIP process is only about thirty seconds [Romano et al.], which does not allow any of the previously mentioned timedependant creep mechanisms to occur. Bodycote PLC has taken another approach to reducing the cost of the HIP process for aluminum castings. The Densal? process is a proprietary HIP process that has tailored the HIP process specifications and hardware specifically for aluminum castings. Time spent at temperature and pressure allows diffusional creep mechanisms to take place. It has been estimated that the Densal? process reduces the cost of HIP for aluminum castings by as much as seventy percent [Mashl et al.]. However, further gains in Densal? process economy may be possible. Due to the similarity of the process temperatures of solution heat treatment and the Densal? process, integrating these two processes could yield even further reduction in the cost of HIP and heat treatment for aluminum castings. The purpose of this thesis is to develop and evaluate the feasibility of this combined Densal? + solutionizing process. The bulk of the work completed is included here as two papers to be submitted for publication. Each paper is a stand-alone work with separate abstract, introduction, procedure, results and discussion, conclusion and reference sections. The first paper included as Chapter 2 presents the experimental results of the process combination of Densal? and solution heat treatment on several Al-Si-Mg commercial castings. The second paper, Chapter 3, presents the results of the theoretical energy calculations of the combined process versus the individual processes of Densal?followed by subsequent heat treatment. Aluminum casting represents an inexpensive method of producing parts with high shape complexity, excellent strength-to-weight ratios, and good corrosion resistance. For these reasons the use of aluminum castings in the automotive industry is on the rise. However, most aluminum alloys in the as-cast condition do not display the mechanical properties necessary for many applications, and therefore require subsequent heat treatment to optimize the microstructure of the alloy [1]. Furthermore, with the increased use of aluminum castings in cyclically stressed applications such as automotive suspension systems, maximizing the fatigue life of the heat-treated components becomes increasingly important. Densification, or the elimination of porosity inherent in the castings, is paramount in the production of fatigue-resistant parts, as pores are most often the fatigue-limiting characteristic in the casting. [2-6]. To date, microstructural refinement though heat treatment and fatigue-performance optimization through densification are completed as two independent processes. In the case of most Al-Si alloys, the heat treatment manifests itself as an often lengthy solutionizing step, followed immediately by a rapid quench and a subsequent controlled age [1,7]. According to ASM International, heat treatment can take upward of eighteen hours to achieve a T6 condition for most Al-Si alloys [1]. Novel techniques of eutectic silicon modification do significantly reduce the solution heat treatment time, but densification steps are still required to improve the fatigue performance of the casting [9]. To this end, hot isostatic pressing (HIP) performed before the heat treatment process has proven to be an effective means of increasing the fatigue life of critical application parts by eliminating the shrinkage and gas porosities inherent in the casting. HIPed parts can see as much as an order of magnitude increase in fatigue life when compared to identical un-HIPed samples [2-6]. The HIP process surrounds the castings with a pressurized gas that imparts a hydrostatic stress on the component [10,11]. This compressive stress, in tandem with elevated temperature, shrinks and heals potential stress-intensifying pores. Initial densification occurs within the casting through time independent plastic flow. Then, under the conditions of time at elevated temperature and pressure, complete densification occurs via diffusional creep mechanisms [10,11]. The micrographs included below show the effects of HIP densification. The pores, marked with arrows, in the un-HIPed samples (Figure 1) are eliminated in the HIPed sample (Figure 2). Figure 1 – Cast Al-Si-Mg alloy in T6 condition; arrows show porosity Figure 2 – Cast Al-Si-Mg alloy in HIPed T6 condition; no evidence of porosity Currently, HIP is an independent process that increases the manufacturing cost of castings. In order to minimize this cost for aluminum castings, Bodycote PLC has developed a proprietary process known as Densal?. Densal?optimizes the HIP process and hardware specifically for aluminum castings and represents an advancement in the cost reduction of this process [6]. One of the most cost-effective current process for the production of critical application castings is the Densal? process followed by T6 heat treatment [6], yet it remains that while Densal? is a value-added process, costs in both time and energy are incurred from its use. Due to the similarity of the peak temperature in both the HIP cycle and the solutionizing soak portion of the heat treat cycle, further integration of the two processes could save significant time and energy. There are difficulties inherent in this proposed combination. First, rapid quenching from the HIP vessel is currently not feasible due to the high pressure inherent in the HIP process. Secondly, even with eutectic-modification of alloys, the time at dwell temperature in the HIP vessel is usually not long enough for complete solutionizing. The goal of this study is to investigate the feasibility of a combined commercial Densal?/solution heat treat process. This will be accomplished by designing and implementing an experimental combined process. Next, the effects of the combined process on the microstructure and tensile and fatigue properties of industrial castings will be investigated. A manufacturing procedure has been developed to test the feasibility of a combined HIP/solution heat treatment. The process modifies current HIP hardware to allow full solution heat treatment in the HIP vessel as well as the ability to quench from the solutionizing temperature. The thermal profile that a casting is subjected to during the combined process will be identical to that seen by a casting undergoing the independent solution heat treatment. Specifically, the temperature of the castings will be raised to the solution temperature, maintained for a certain dwell time, and then rapidly dropped via a traditional water quench. Going on concurrently to the solutionizing however will be the densification process. At the same time as the temperature of the casting is raised, the pressure of the gaseous media surrounding the casting will also rise to a prescribed value. This pressure will be only be maintained for the length of the standard Densal? dwell time and not for the entire solutionizing time. Pressure will be reduced while solution temperature is maintained and the remainder of the solutionizing time will be fulfilled. One of the major questions that needed to be addressed to determine the feasibility of this combined process was whether the HIP furnace used had the sufficient power to overcome the adiabatic cooling that occurs in the vessel when the pressurized is vented. This issue becomes increasingly important when the heat transfer between the castings and the pressurized gas is considered. The operating pressure in the HIP vessel insures that this rate of heat transfer between the pressurized gas and the castings is on the order of ~100 W/m2 K [12]. However, if the furnace can maintain the casting at the solutionizing temperature, Tsolution, while the pressure within the vessel is reduced, then the vessel can be opened with the castings remaining at Tsolution. This would then allow the castings to either be transferred to a soak furnace to continue the solution heat treatment or in special cases, water quenched. References [1] H.V. Atkinson, S.
