Originating with Elwood Haynes's development of alloys like Stellite 6 in the early 1900s \cite{hasanBasicsStellitesMachining2016}, stellites quickly found use in medical implants & tools, machine tools, and nuclear components, and new variations on the original CoCrWC and CoCrMoC alloys are spreading to new sectors like oil & gas and chemical processing \cite{malayogluComparingPerformanceHIPed2003, ahmedStructurePropertyRelationships2014, raghuRecentDevelopmentsWear1997}. *** Paragraph: Impact of Composition, Microstructure, and Processing on Corrosion and Cavitation Performance :ignore_heading: #+BEGIN_COMMENT - [X] What they are and where they came from. + [ ] Main alloying elements and ref to tab:stellite_composition + [ ] Describe the microstructure briefly + [ ] Carbon grades #+END_COMMENT The main alloying elements in Stellite alloys are cobalt (Co), chromium (25-33 wt% Cr), tungsten (0-18 wt% W), molybdenum (0-18 wt% Mo), carbon (0.1-3.3 wt% C), and trace elements iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), silicon (Si), phosphorus (P), sulphur (S), boron (B), lanthanum (La), & manganese (Mn); \tref{tab:stellite_composition} summarizes the nominal and measured composition of commonly used Stellite alloys \cite{ahmedMappingMechanicalProperties2023, alimardaniEffectLocalizedDynamic2010, ashworthMicrostructurePropertyRelationships1999, bunchCorrosionGallingResistant1989, davis2000nickel, desaiEffectCarbideSize1984, ferozhkhanMetallurgicalStudyStellite2017, pacquentinTemperatureInfluenceRepair2025, ratiaComparisonSlidingWear2019, zhangFrictionWearCharacterization2002}. Stellite alloys possess a composite-like microstructure, combining a cobalt-rich matrix strengthened by solid solutions of chromium, tungsten, & molybdenum, with hard carbide phases with carbide formers Cr (of carbide type $\textrm{M}_{7}\textrm{C}_{3}$ & $\textrm{M}_{23}\textrm{C}_{6}$) and W/Mo (of carbide type $\textrm{MC}$ & $\textrm{M}_{6}\textrm{C}$), that impede wear and crack propagation \cite{ahmedSlidingWearBlended2021a, crookCobaltbaseAlloysResist1994}. The proportion and type of carbides depend on carbon content and the relative amounts of carbon with carbide formers (Cr, W, Mo), which greatly influence alloy performance and intended applications; high carbon alloy (>1.2 wt%) have greater carbide formation and are primarily used for wear resistance, low carbon alloys (<0.5 wt%) are used for enhanced corrosion resistance, while medium carbon alloys (0.5 wt% - 1.2 wt%) are used in applications requiring a combination of wear and corrosion resistance \cite{davis2000nickel}. # In addition to the solid solution toughness and carbide hardness, the stress-induced FCC \textrightarrow{} HCP phase transformation of the Co-based solid solution further increases wear resistance through work hardening. **** Table: Show the table of stellite

stacking fault energy. \cite{davis2000nickel, frenkMicrostructuralEffectsSliding1994} # One of the main applications of Stellite alloys can be wear and erosion resistance, which results from various carbides and Co solid solution [1], [7]. Cobalt imparts to its alloys an unstable fcc crystal structure with a very low stacking fault energy. # The cubic FCC phase of cobalt (ICDD 00-015-0806) # The hexagonal HCP phase of cobalt (ICDD 01-071-4239) # The wear resistance of Stellite alloys benefits from the strain-induced face-centered cubic (FCC) to hexagonal closepacked (HCP) transformation of Co \cite{collierTribologicalPerformanceMolybdenum2020, ahmedFrictionWearCobaltBase2017} # I *love* this paragraph # https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surfcoat.2018.11.011 # The ε-Co and γ-Co phase are the main phases in Co alloys [39]. According to the phase diagram, the ε-Co phase is more stable at room temperature [40]. However, the γ-Co to ε-Co transformation rarely occurs under normal cooling conditions, and as a result, the γ-Co phase is generally retained at room temperature [39], as we found in the as-deposited Stellite 6 coatings. Nevertheless, this transformation can be triggered athermally (e.g. quenching from temperature of γ-Co) [25,41], isothermally (e.g. aging at temperatures between 650 °C and 950 °C) [35,42,43], or by strain [30,31]. In this study, the thermal fatigue process was achieved by quenching, with heating temperatures of up to 650 °C, and the crack tip introduced severe plastic deformation, all conditions that promote the γ-Co to ε-Co transformation. *** Paragraph: Stellite 1 :ignore_heading: # Stellite 1 is a high-carbon and high-tungsten CoCrWMoCFeNiSiMn alloy, making it suitable for tribological applications such as valve seating, wear pads in gas turbines, bearing sleeves, slurry pumps, ball bearings and expeller screws. Stellite 1 alloy is labeled as CoCrW alloy in this paper. Stellite 21 is a low-carbon, high-molybdenum alloy used in applications such as forging and hot-stamping dies and valve trims in the chemical industry (Ref 1, 2). *** Paragraph: Tungsten & Molybdenum :ignore_heading: # Tungsten is primarily utilized in Stellite alloys to provide solid solution strength and carbide formation but can be replaced by Mo which also partitions to the carbides. # Tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo) have a similar function in providing additional strength to Co solid solution matrix of Stellite alloys due to large atomic size, that is, they impede dislocation flow when present as solute atoms\cite{boeckRelationshipsProcessingMicrostructure1985}. Tungsten (W) and molybdenum (Mo) serve to provide additional strength to the matrix, when present in a small amount (<4 wt%), by virtue of their large atomic size that impedes dislocation flow when present as solute atoms. When present in large quantities, W and Mo also participate in formation of W-rich or Mo-rich carbides during alloy solidification \cite{davis2000nickel} \cite{raghuRecentDevelopmentsWear1997} *** Paragraph: Tungsten Carbide :ignore_heading: There are two main phases in the tungsten-carbon system: the hexagonal $\textrm{WC}$ (ICDD Card# 03-065-4539, COD:2102265), denoted as $\delta-\textrm{WC}$, and multiple variations of hexagonal-close-packed \textrm{W}_2\textrm{C}$ (ICDD:00-002-1134, COD:1539792) \cite{kurlovPhaseEquilibriaWC2006}. # There are two hexagonal carbides in the tungsten – carbon system (Fig. 2): the monocarbide, WC, and the subcarbide [12070-13-2], W 2 C. The hexagonal WC, also called a-WC, decomposes at its incongruent melting point of 2776 C. Its range of homogeneity is extremely narrow: from 49.5 to 50.5 mol % C \cite{tulhoffCarbides2000} # Several stable tungsten carbide phases in the WC phase diagram. They consist of the S phase with simple hexagonal structure (prototype: WC), γ phase with face-centred-cubic structure (prototype: NaCl), and β phase with hexagonal-close-packed structure (prototype: PbO2). Both β and β phases are nonstoichiometric with a solubility of C wt.% in approximate ranges of 2.2∼3.0 and 3.6∼3.9, respectively. The S phase is a stoichiometric compound. For the sake of convenience, we represent the β, γ and δ phases by their corresponding compounds W2C, WC1-x and WC, respectively. \cite{gubischTribologicalCharacteristicsWC1x2005} The precipitation of the tungsten-rich phase $M_6C$ is closely related to the decomposition of the MC carbide, and the $M_6C$ only occurs in the vicinity of the MC \cite{jiangSecondaryM6CPrecipitation1999}, as $M_6C$ carbides form only when the tungsten and.or molybdenum content exceeds 4-6 a/o. *** Paragraph: Chromium carbide :ignore_heading: Although M23C6 can precipitate as primary carbide during solidification, it is most commonly found in secondary carbides along grain boundaries. M7C3 is a metastable pseudo-eutectic carbide that typically forms at lower carbon-chromium ratios and effectively transforms into secondary M23C6 upon heat treatment. In addition to being a carbide former, chromium provides solid solution strengthing and corrosion/oxidation resistance to the cobalt-based matrix. The Cr7C3 carbide is unstable at high temperatures and transforms to M_{23}C_{6} upon heat treatment. Under further temperature and time, Cr_{23}C_{6} partially transforms to Cr_6C \cite{mohammadnezhadInsightMicrostructureCharacterization}. $$ 2Cr_{7}C_{3} + 9Cr \rightarrow Cr_{23}C_{6} $$ $$ Cr_{23}C_{6} + 13Cr \rightarrow 6Cr_{6}C $$ $$ 23Cr_{7}C_{3} \rightarrow 7Cr_{23}C_6 + 27C $$ $$ 6C + 23Cr \rightarrow Cr23C6 $$ *** Paragraph 2: Fundamental Mechanisms of Corrosion and Cavitation Resistance :ignore_heading: #+BEGIN_COMMENT - [ ] Fundamental Strengthening Mechanisms + [ ] Primary mechanism: Hard carbide precipitation (e.g., M$_{7}$C$_{3}$, M$_{23}$C$_{6}$), with dependence on carbon content and processing. + [ ] Secondary mechanism: Solid solution strengthening by specific elements (W, Mo, Cr), also linked to carbon content. + [ ] Additional mechanism: Stress-induced phase transformation (fcc to hcp) contributing to wear resistance via work hardening. - [ ] How they are made and modified. - [ ] Current research directions and future outlook. #+END_COMMENT The remarkable ability of Stellite alloys to withstand these specific challenges stems from key metallurgical features. Their corrosion resistance is primarily attributed to a high chromium content, typically 20-30 wt.%, which promotes the formation of a highly stable, tenacious, and self-healing chromium-rich passive oxide film on the material's surface; this film acts as a barrier isolating the underlying alloy from the corrosive environment. Alloying elements such as molybdenum and tungsten can further enhance this passivity, particularly improving resistance to localized corrosion phenomena like pitting and crevice corrosion in aggressive media. Concurrently, their outstanding cavitation resistance is largely derived from the unique behavior of the cobalt-rich matrix, which can undergo a stress-induced crystallographic transformation from a face-centered cubic (fcc) to a hexagonal close-packed (hcp) structure. This transformation, often facilitated by mechanical twinning, effectively absorbs the intense, localized impact energy from collapsing cavitation bubbles and leads to significant work hardening, thereby impeding material detachment and erosion. Antony suggests that the cavitation-erosion resistance of Stellites derives from the matrix phase and is enhanced by the strain-induced fcc \textrightarrow hcp allotropic transformation \cite{antonyWearResistantCobaltBaseAlloys1983}. *** Paragraph: Lit review of corrosion :ignore_heading: The aqueous oxidation of Stellite 6 alloy was investigated in a 1979 study using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) \cite{mcintyreXRayPhotoelectronSpectroscopic1979}. Specimens were exposed to pH 10 water at 285°C. To understand the oxidation behavior, the study measured dissolved oxygen concentration against exposure duration. The high-temperature corrosion resistance of stellite coatings is attributable to the formation of cobalt & chromium surface \cite{cesanekDeteriorationLocalMechanical2015}. Heathcock et al found that carbides are selectively eroded, with the carbide-matrix interface acting as initiating erosion site \cite{heathcockCavitationErosionCobaltbased1981}. *** Paragraph 4: Synergistic Challenges in Applications Prone to Corrosion and Cavitation :ignore: *** Paragraph 5: Research and Development for Enhanced Corrosion and Cavitation Performance :ignore: *** Paragraph 6: Influence of HIPing :ignore: Compared with the case alloys, the HIPed alloys had relatively finer, rounded, and distributed carbides. *** Paragraph: Cavitation Erosion Resistance The primary result of an erosion test is the cumulative mass loss versus time, which is then converted to volumetric loss and mean depth of erosion (MDE) versus time for the purposes of comparison between materials of different densities. The calculation of the mean depth of erosion for this test method should be performed in conformity with ASTM G-32. *** General Background # \section{General Background} # Analysis: The paragraph effectively introduces the challenge of cavitation erosion in fluid-handling systems and discusses the need for materials with improved resistance or proposes potential mitigation strategies. # Problem Statement: It starts by clearly stating the prevalence and detrimental effects of cavitation (e.g., material erosion, reduced efficiency, noise, vibration, component failure) in key applications (e.g., pumps, propellers, turbines, valves), establishing the necessity for effective solutions. # Focus Area / Proposed Solution: It highlights the goal of developing or utilizing materials/coatings/treatments with enhanced cavitation resistance, or introduces specific approaches intended to combat the damage. # Mechanism: It explains the fundamental mechanism of cavitation damage (e.g., vapor bubble formation and violent collapse, generation of shockwaves and micro-jets) leading to material erosion, and potentially discusses how a proposed solution resists this mechanism. # Context/Validation: It grounds the issue by referencing specific industries or critical components where cavitation erosion is a significant operational problem (e.g., marine propulsion, hydropower generation, hydraulic machinery, chemical processing) and underscores the importance of resistant materials in these contexts. # Relevant Properties: It lists specific material characteristics or properties deemed crucial for resisting cavitation erosion (e.g., toughness, hardness, fatigue strength, work-hardening capacity, corrosion resistance, grain structure, phase stability). # Knowledge Gap: Critically, it may point out limitations in current materials, testing standards, predictive models, or fundamental understanding, such as predicting erosion rates accurately, performance under combined erosion-corrosion conditions, or the behavior of novel materials. # Call for Research/Development: Consequently, it emphasizes the need for further research, development of new materials/coatings, improved testing protocols, or advanced modeling techniques to better predict and mitigate cavitation erosion. # Potential Applications: It suggests specific components (e.g., impellers, propellers, valve seats, cylinder liners) or systems that would directly benefit from advancements in cavitation-resistant materials, improving reliability and performance across various sectors. # \chaptermark{Cavitation Erosion} % optional for veryy long chapter, you can rename what appear in the header # %% have a mini table of content at the start of the chapter # { # \hypersetup{linkcolor=black} # \minitoc # } %cite:@Franc2004265, @Romo201216, @Kumar2024, @Kim200685, @Gao2024, @20221xix, @Usta2023, @Cheng2023, @Zheng2022 Cavitation erosion presents a significant challenge in materials degradation in various industrial sectors, including hydroelectric power, marine propulsion, and nuclear systems, stemming from a complex interaction between fluid dynamics and material response \cite{francCavitationErosion2005, romoCavitationHighvelocitySlurry2012}. Hydrodynamically, the phenomenon initiates with the formation and subsequent violent collapse of vapor bubbles within a liquid, triggered by local pressures dropping to the saturated vapor pressure. These implosions generate intense, localized shockwaves and high-speed microjets that repeatedly impact adjacent solid surfaces \cite{gevariDirectIndirectThermal2020}. From a materials perspective, these impacts induce high stresses (100-1000 MPa) and high strain rates, surpassing material thresholds and leading to damage accumulation via plastic deformation, work hardening, fatigue crack initiation and propagation, and eventual material detachment. Mitigating this requires materials capable of effectively absorbing or resisting this dynamic loading, often under demanding conditions that may also include corrosion. % Martensitic transformation Crucially, the cobalt matrix often possesses a low stacking fault energy, facilitating a strain-induced martensitic transformation from a metastable face-centered cubic $\gamma$ phase to a hexagonal close-packed $\epsilon$ phase under the intense loading of cavitation. This transformation is a primary mechanism for dissipating impact energy and enhancing work hardening, contributing significantly to Stellite's characteristic cavitation resistance \cite{huangMicrostructureEvolutionMartensite2023, tawancyFccHcpTransformation1986}. HIPing is a thermo-mechanical material processing technique which involves the simultaneous application of pressure (up to 200 MPa) and temperature (2000 C), which results in casting densification, porosity closure, and metallurgical bonding. \cite{yuComparisonTriboMechanicalProperties2007} While commonly applied via casting or weld overlays, processing routes like Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) offer potential advantages such as microstructure refinement \cite{stoicaInfluenceHeattreatmentSliding2005} finer microstructures and enhanced fatigue resistance \cite{ahmedInfluenceReHIPingStructure2013, yuComparisonTriboMechanicalProperties2007}. HIPing of surface coatings results in microstructure refinement, which can yield improved fatigue and fracture resistance. HIPing leads to carbide refinement, which can yield improved impact toughness \cite{yuInfluenceManufacturingProcess2008}, and reduce carbide brittleness \cite{yuComparisonTriboMechanicalProperties2007}. Furthermore, HIP facilitates the consolidation of novel 'blended' alloys created from mixed elemental or pre-alloyed powders, providing a pathway to potentially tailor compositions or microstructures for optimized performance. However, despite the prevalence of Stellite alloys and the known influence of processing on microstructure and properties, the specific cavitation erosion behavior of HIP-consolidated Stellites, particularly these blended formulations, remains underexplored in academic literature. Given that erosion mechanisms in Stellites often involve interactions at the carbide-matrix interface \cite{szalaEffectNitrogenIon2021}, understanding how HIP processing and compositional blending affect these interfaces and the matrix's transformative capacity under cavitation, especially when potentially coupled with corrosion, constitutes a critical knowledge gap addressed by this research. % Need to describe Stellite 1 \section{Stellite 1} Stellite 1 is a high-carbon and high-tungsten alloy, making it suitable for demanding applications that require hardness & toughness to combat sliding & abrasive wear \cite{crookCobaltbaseAlloysResist1994} \section{Stellites} \section{Objectives and Scope of the Research Work} \section{Thesis Outline} \section{Literature Survey} \section{Cavitation Tests} ** Analytical Investigations # \chapter{Analytical Investigations} # \section{Introduction} # \section{Finite Element Model (FEM)} # \section{Model description} # \section{Model Validation} # \section{Result Analysis of Typical Load Case} *** Strain hardening # \cite{berchicheCavitationErosionModel2002} Cavitation bubble collapse induce a work hardening of the material surface, comparable to that obtained in conventional peening \cite{swietlickiEffectsShotPeening2022}, characterized by the thickness of the hardened layers and the shape of the strain profile below the surface. The strain profile within the material can usually be modeled by the following power law: \begin{equation} \epsilon\left(x\right) = \epsilon_s {\left( 1 - \frac{x}{L} \right)}^{\theta} \end{equation} where $\epsilon\left(x\right)$ is the strain at depth $x$ from the eroded surface, $\epsilon_s$ is the failure rupture strain on the eroded surface, $L$ is the thickness of the hardened layer, and $\theta$ is the shape factor of the power law. After each cycle, the thickness of the hardened layer $L$ and the surface strain $\epsilon_s$ will increase continuously until damage is initiated at the surface ($\epsilon_s$ reaches the failure rupture strain $\epsilon_R$), at which point the strain profile is in steady-state. \begin{equation} \epsilon_R = \epsilon_{mean} {\left( 1 - \frac{\Delta L }{L+ \Delta L} \right)}^{\theta} \end{equation} *** Correlative empirical methods Empirical methods are common for addressing complex cavitation erosion, involving lab tests to correlate cavitation erosion resistance with mechanical properties. **** Karimi and Leo The Karimi and Leo phenomenological model describes cavitation erosion rate as a function of Karimi and Leo **** Noskievic Noskievic formulated a mathematical relaxation model for the dynamics of the cavitation erosion using a differential equation applied to forced oscillations with damping: \begin{equation} \frac{\mathrm{d}^2 v }{\mathrm{d}t^2} + 2 \alpha \frac{\mathrm{d} v }{\mathrm{d}t} + \beta^2 v = I \end{equation} where $I$ is erosion intensity, which can vary linearly with time, $v = \frac{\mathrm{d} v }{\mathrm{d}t}$ is erosion rate, $\alpha$ is strain hardening or internal friction of material during plastic deformation, and $\beta$ is coefficient inversely proportional to material strength.

Under simple assumptions, kinetic energy of cavitation is proportional to the square of the amplitude and maximum hammer pressure is proportional to A. \begin{align} x &= A sin(2 \pi f t) \\ v &= \frac{dx}{dt} = 2 \pi f A sin(2 \pi f t) \\ v_{max} &= 2 \pi f A \\ v_{mean} &= \frac{1}{\pi} \int^\pi_0 A sin(2 \pi f t) = 4 f A \\ \end{align} However, several researchers have found that erosion rates are not proportional to the second power of amplitude, but instead a smaller number. Thiruvengadum \cite{thiruvengadamTheoryErosion1967} and Hobbs find that erosion rates are proportional to the 1.8 and 1.5 power of peak-to-peak amplitude. Tomlinson et al find that erosion rate is linearly proportional to peak-to-peak amplitude in copper [3]. Maximum erosion rate is approximately proportional to the 1.5 power of p-p amplitude [4]. The propagation of ultrasonic waves may result in thermal energy absorption or into chemical energy, resulting in reduced power. For the purposes of converting data from studies that do not use an amplitude of 50um, a exponent factor of 1.5 has been applied. * COMMENT Appendix :ignore_heading: #+LaTeX: \appendix #+LaTeX: \subfile{Appendices/Appendix1} * COMMENT Publications :ignore_heading: #+LaTeX: %% add publications in pdf format #+LaTeX: \clearpage #+LaTeX: \stepcounter{chapter} #+LaTeX: \addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\thechapter\ \ \ \ Publication 1} #+LaTeX: \includepdf[pages=-]{Publications/Publication1.pdf} * Bibliography :ignore_heading: # using biblatex rather than bibtex to easily have further reading and references # you need to remove the cache file when adding files to the bibliography # Log and output files > trash icons in Overleaf # sorted by citation #+LaTeX: \label{Bibliography} #+LaTeX: \printbibliography[title={References}, heading=bibintoc, resetnumbers=true] # %% sorted by alphabetical order, using author name # %\begin{refsection} # %\DeclareFieldFormat{labelnumberwidth}{#1} # %\nocite{*} # %\printbibliography[title={Bibliography}, notcategory=cited, omitnumbers=true, heading=bibintoc] # %\end{refsection}
