摘要:
Thermal fatigue and wear both seriously affect the service life of some working parts. Environmental temperature will modify the surface conditions and influences the result of wear. In this research, to come close to working conditions, specimens were tested by a combination of thermal cycles and wear. Different cycles of thermal fatigue was carried out first on the gray iron specimens and subsequently wear test was performed to evaluate the effect of these thermal fatigue cycles. In this case, bionic laser processing was used to enhance the wear performance. The results indicated that bionic laser processing reduces the negative effects from thermal fatigue, such as grain fragmentation and oxidation. Because the initiation and growth of cracks as well as oxidation are suppressed in bionic processed areas. Bionic specimens exhibit high wear resistance compared with the common one. The process described can be considered as an effective method to improve the performance of gray iron in combined thermal fatigue and wear service conditions.
