Thermophysical properties of the Ni-based alloy Nimonic 80A up to 2400 K, III
Nimonic 80A is a nickel-chromium alloy which is strengthened by additions of titanium and aluminum. The alloy is used for high temperature, high-strength applications. This superalloy is used in gas turbine hot section components, for hot-working applications and forging hammers. This is the third paper reporting thermophysical properties of Nimonic 80A. The optical measurement of temperature is limited by our fast pyrometers with T-min = 1200 K for this material and data above about 1200 K have been reported in the previous papers [1,2]. Specific heat capacity data from 500 K up to 1500 K obtained by direct measurement using a differential scanning calorimeter have been used to compute enthalpy as function of temperature. By combining pulse heating and DSC measurements now it is possible to assign a temperature to electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity in the observed temperature range. Thermal conductivity is estimated using the Wiedemann-Franz law. The investigated specific heat capacity, enthalpy, resistivity and thermal conductivity data as function of temperature are presented and compared to literature-values. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
