Thermophysical properties of Inconel 718 alloy

Abstract

Abstract The thermal diffusivity (a), linear thermal expansion coefficient (α), isobaric heat capacity (Cp ) and phase transition enthalpy (ΔH) of Inconel 718 superalloy were determined by laser flash method, dilatometric method and differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range of 298–1375…1473 К. The thermal conductivity (λ) has been calculated from the measurement results. The estimated errors of the obtained data were 2–5%, 3–5%, 2–3% and (1.5–2)×10−7 K−1 for a, λ, Cp and α, respectively. The approximation equations and a table of reference values for the studied properties have been obtained.
