Abstract
To clarify the high temperature flow stress behavior and microstructures evolution of a V–5Cr–5Ti (mass fraction, %) alloy, the isothermal hot compression tests were conducted in the temperature range of 1423–1573 K with strain rates of 0.01, 0.1, and 1 s−1. The results show that the measured flow stress should be revised by friction and the calculated values of friction coefficient m are in the range of 0.45–0.56. Arrhenius-type constitutive equation was developed by regression analysis. The comparison between the experimental and predicted flow stress shows that the R2 and the average absolute relative error (AARE) are 0.948 and 5.44%, respectively. The measured apparent activation energy Qa is in the range of 540–890 kJ/mol. Both dis-continuous dynamic recrystallization (DDRX) and continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX) mechanisms are observed in the deformed alloy, but dynamic recovery (DRV) is the dominant softening mechanism up to a true strain of 1.5.
