Description of Discontinuities5.1 This section is provided to aid in the identification andclassification of discontinuities. It briefly describes the radio-graphic appearance of those discontinuities in the referenceradiogr

18、aph adjuncts and indicates their probable cause intitanium. The radiographic appearance of different discontinui-ties can at times be very similar. Therefore, care should alwaysbe taken during the process of identification. In extreme casesother methods of identification, either nondestructive ordes

19、tructive, may need to be employed to obtain positiveidentification.5.1.1 GasGas in its various forms is usually caused by thereaction of molten titanium with the mold or residual materialleft in the mold. Gas tends to migrate to the upper portions ofthe casting. The formation of clustered or scatter

20、ed gas holesresults from the generation of larger amounts of gas than asingle gas hole. Whether the larger amount of gas spreads outor is confined to a small area is dependent upon a number offactors including casting process, reaction area, solidificationrate, wall thickness, and geometry.5.1.1.1 G

21、as holeA spherical void formed through therelease and subsequent entrapment of gas during solidification.A gas hole will appear as a dark round spot on the radiograph.5.1.1.2 Clustered gas holesA closely nested group of darkround voids concentrated within a self-defined boundary area.5.1.1.3 Scatter

22、ed gas holesMultiple voids appearing asdark round spots on the radiograph. They are randomly spreadthroughout a part or area of a part to a lesser concentration thanclustered gas holes but with the potential to degrade the castingthrough their interaction which precludes their evaluation on anindivi

23、dual basis.5.1.2 ShrinkageWhile at times the appearance of shrink-age in titanium may be radiographically similar to shrinkage insteel, the faster solidification rate of titanium has a dramaticeffect on the conditions under which each shrinkage type willoccur in titanium. Other factors which influen

24、ce the formationof shrinkage are wall thickness and thickness transitiongradients, gate size and orientation, mold design, castingconfiguration, metal/mold temperature, and pouring rate andmethod. All the types of shrinkage described in 5.1.2.1 through5.1.2.3 have a degree of overlap. However, each

25、is most likelyto occur under a specific set of conditions primarily influencedby metal feed, section thickness and cooling rate.5.1.2.1 Scattered shrinkageAppears on a radiograph asdark fine lacy or filamentary voids of varying densities. Thesevoids are usually uniformly spread throughout the area o

33、prevalent in the thinner sections of the range.Scattered shrinkage cavities are caused by varying coolingrates in the same area of a casting that can result fromdifferences in wall thickness or other factors.5.1.2.2 Centerline shrinkageCharacterized by a more dis-crete dark indication than scattered

34、 shrinkage. The indicationhas definite borders consisting of a lacy network of varyingdensity or a network of interconnected elongated voids. Cen-terline shrinkage is located primarily in the center of thematerial cross section with a tendency to orient toward gates orrisers. It is more common in th

35、ickness over14 in. (6.35 mm).5.1.2.3 Shrinkage cavityAppears as a dark void withsmooth sides taking an appearance very similar to a gas hole.A shrinkage cavity, particularly in thicker wall sections, isusually larger than a single gas hole would be. The cavity isformed during the cooling process due

36、 to a lack of feedingmetal. The cavity compensates for the rapid solidificationtaking place at the surface of the casting, thereby forming thecavity in the center area of the wall. Shrinkage cavity has adefinite tendency to occur near hot spots where walls are12 in.(12.7 mm) thick or more.5.1.3 Less

37、 dense inclusionsAppear as dark indications in avariety of shapes and sizes on a radiograph. Inclusions may befound in groups or appear singularly. Less dense inclusions canbe caused by contaminants in the molten titanium, residualmaterials left on the surface of the mold, or broken pieces ofthe mol

38、d becoming entrapped during solidification.5.1.4 More dense inclusionsAppear as light indications ina variety of shapes and sizes on a radiograph. More denseinclusions can be caused by contaminants introduced in thesame manner as less dense inclusions, or tungsten introducedduring weld repairs.6. Me

39、thod of Preparation6.1 The original radiographs used to prepare the adjunctreference radiographs were produced on high contrast, finegrained film. The radiographs were made with a penetrametersensitivity as determined by ASTM penetrameters (see GuideE94) of 2-2T. The reproductions of the original ra

40、diographshave been made with a desired density within the range of 2.0to 2.25. They have retained substantially the contrast of theoriginal radiographs.6.2 In selecting the individual reference radiographs, theaim was to obtain a graduated series for each type ofdiscontinuity. It is not intended tha

41、t like numbered levels orclasses on the different reference radiograph pages be consid-ered to cause equal degradation in the ultimate performance, orserviceability, or both, of any particular casting.6.2.1 The criteria used to select the individual radiographsrepresenting each severity level were b

42、ased on the size, shape,spacing, alignment, and radiographic density of the disconti-nuities present.6.3 In some cases, plates other than the thickness indicatedon the reference radiographs were utilized to complete indi-vidual severity levels.6.4 For the discontinuity classifications of gas hole, l

43、essdense inclusions, and more dense inclusions, only one series ofeight gradations is displayed for each. These gradations areintended to be used over the entire thickness range applicableto the volume. Therefore, careful consideration should be takenwhen specifying allowable severity levels for the

44、 thicker wallsizes.6.5 Film DeteriorationRadiographic films are subject towear and tear from handling and use. The extent to which theimage deteriorates over time is a function of storageconditions, care in handling and amount of use. Referenceradiograph films are no exception and may exhibit a loss

45、 inimage quality over time. The radiographs should therefore beperiodically examined for signs of wear and tear, includingscratches, abrasions, stains, and so forth. Any reference radio-graphs which show signs of excessive wear and tear whichcould influence the interpretation and use of the radiogra

46、phsshould be replaced.7. Basis for Application7.1 The reference radiographs may be applied as acceptancestandards tailored to the end use of the product. Application ofthese reference radiographs as acceptance standards should bebased on the intended use of the product and the followingconsideration

47、s:7.1.1 An area of like size to that of the reference radiographshall be the unit area by which the production radiograph isevaluated, and any such area shall meet the requirements asdefined for acceptability.7.1.2 Any combination or portion of these reference radio-graphs may be used as is relevant

48、 to the particular application.Different grades or acceptance limits may be specified for eachdiscontinuity type. Further, different grades may be specifiedfor various regions or zones of the component.7.1.3 Special consideration may be required where morethan one discontinuity type is present in th

49、e same area. Anymodification of the acceptance criteria required on the basis ofmultiple discontinuity types must be specified.7.1.4 Production radiographs containing shrinkage, gas, orinclusions may be rated by the overall condition with regard tosize, number, and distribution. These factors should be consid-ered in balance.7.1.5 As a minimum, the acceptance criteria should containinformation addressing: zoning of the part (if applicable),acceptance severity level for each discontinuity type, and thespecific area t
