Q1) In this phase diagram, what are the eutectic composition and temperature? Explain the eutectic transformation.
Q2) Identify the dominant phase at two different temperatures: 1500 and 1400 oC. Sketch the microstructure of the composite for each temperature.
Q3) The alloy is cooled down to 720 C, please answer the following questions:
- How many phases are present and what are their names?
- For the phases identified above, what are their compositions for each phase? Sketch the micrograph, taking into account the features of the phase diagram.
- What is the weight fraction of each phase?
- What is the weight fraction for pearlite in the alloy?
Figure Q1 displays the phase diagram for iron-carbon alloys. An alloy with composition of 1.1wt%C is held at a given temperature
