The purpose of this study is to characterize the effects of heat damage on the electrical conductivity and static mechanical properties of aluminum alloys. The data resulting from the experiments of thermal exposure of several aluminum alloys are used to model the relations that describe the dependence of the electrical conductivity and hardness on the two main variables of these experiments: the temperature and the time of exposure. The dependence of yield strength and ultimate tensile strength on hardness values is characterized. For each case, different materials (alloys) exhibit similar general trends although there are different coefficients for each material to satisfy the general relation.

ABSTRACTDuring the last five years Pratt & Whitney Aircraft has developed rapid solidification powder metallurgy and consolidation techniques to produce advanced aluminum alloys. A centrifugal rotary atomization device with forced high velocity helium convective cooling has been developed to pilot-plant stage, to produce aluminum alloys of novel compositions for advanced gas turbine engine applications. Rapidly solidified aluminum alloys solidify as spherical droplets up to 100 μm diameter with cooling rates of 105 — 106 K/sec, and demonstrate new microstructural features which have been exploited to develop elevated temperature mechanical properties. Alloys have been developed for 400 — 500°F fan and compressor applications that have traditionally used titanium alloys, and this paper reviews the microstructural evolution of rapidly solidified structures during thermomechanical processing.

In this paper, it was aimed to develop a new Al-Zn-Mg base aluminum alloy having high electrical conductivity, strength, and formability simultaneously. As a result, Al-Zn-Mg base low aluminum alloy sheet can be effectively strengthened without significant thermal conductivity loss by multiply alloying precipitation hardening elements and properly controlling production process parameters.
