Question: Using the isothermal transformation diagram for a 1 . 1 3 wt . % C steel alloy ( given below ) , determine the final

Using the isothermal transformation diagram for a 1.13 wt.% C steel alloy (given below), determine the final microstructure (in terms of just the microconstituents present) of a small specimen that has been subjected to the following timetemperature treatments. In each case assume that the specimen begins at 920C and that it has been held at this temperature long enough to have achieved a complete and homogeneous austenitic structure. (8 points)(a) Rapidly cool to 250C, hold for 103 s, then quench to room temperature. (b) Rapidly cool to 775C, hold for 500 s, then quench to room temperature. (c) Rapidly cool to 400C, hold for 500 s, then quench to room temperature. (d) Rapidly cool to 700C, hold at this temperature for 105 s, then quench to room temperature.(e) Rapidly cool to 650C, hold at this temperature for 3 s, rapidly cool to 400C, hold for 25 s, then quench to room temperature. (f) Rapidly cool to 350C, hold for 300 s, then quench to room temperature. (g) Rapidly cool to 675C, hold for 7 s, then quench to room temperature. (h) Rapidly cool to 600C, hold at this temperature for 7 s, rapidly cool to 450C, hold at this temperature for 4 s, then quench to room temperature.
