Results are discussed and compared to those obtained by the standard ASTM G124 test method. laser ignition metal combustion GOX atmosphere PIT test propagation rate sustained combustion heat transfer heat-affected zone 316L...

.... The heat transfer to the underlying metallic support is determined for the support made of copper. The impact of particles burning on the support is illustrated for supports made of Inconel 625 exposed to SS316L particles and for supports made of SS316L and exposed to pure iron particles. A heat-transfer...

... of quenchant and bath conditions used. The function of a quenchant is to improve heat transfer extraction from the hot metal during the cooling process and to produce the desired metallurgical transformation. The selection of quenching media must consider the quenching severity required to optimize the desired...
