Скачать или смотреть Practice Problems: Step-by-Step Microstructure & Phase Percent Calculations

In this video, we solve two detailed TTT practice problems, showing how to predict the final microstructure and phase fractions for steel alloys. You will learn how to:

Draw full cooling paths on TTT diagrams

Identify microconstituents like pearlite, ferrite, bainite, and martensite

Specify pearlite type: coarse, medium, or fine

Apply the lever rule to calculate weight percentages of each phase

Understand how cooling rate and holding time affect phase transformations and the resulting steel properties

These step-by-step examples are designed to help you visualize and understand how heat treatment influences mechanical properties like strength, hardness, and toughness, making the concepts applicable beyond exams to real-world materials engineering.
