Neutron Bragg edge imaging for in situ mapping of crystallographic phase-transformations and of temperature distributions during GTAW of supermartensitic stainless steel
- In Neutron-Bragg-Edge Imaging (NBEI) experiments, we studied the phase transition during butt-welding of supermartensitic steel plates. Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) was used with a motorized torch allowing for automated weldments. The austenitization in the heat affected zone (HAZ) underneath the welding head could be clearly visualized at λ = 0.39 nm, a wavelength smaller than the Bragg edge wavelengths of both austenite and martensite. Also, the re-transformation into the martensitic phase upon cooling was detected. However, we observed an unexpected additional change in transmission at λ = 0.44 nm that is a wavelength larger than the wavelength of the Bragg edges of both the martensitic and austenitic phases. We attribute this change to the Deybe-Waller-Factor that describes the temperature dependence of coherent scattering at a crystal lattice. The observed two-dimensional attenuation map corresponds well with a temperature distribution modelling by software macros in ANSYS.In Neutron-Bragg-Edge Imaging (NBEI) experiments, we studied the phase transition during butt-welding of supermartensitic steel plates.

The observed two-dimensional attenuation map corresponds well with a temperature distribution modelling by software macros in ANSYS. Here, the absolute temperature values could be achieved by calibrating the modelled attenuation with help of a thermocouple placed at the steel plate. This allows in return for a direct two-dimensional temperature reading based on the Debye-Waller-relation between neutron attenuation and sample temperature.…
