Abstract

Microstructure evolution of dynamic recrystallization of AZ31 magnesium alloy during isothermal heating process was simulated by cellular automaton method (CA method). When heat holding time is constant, the grain size of AZ31 magnesium alloy increases significantly with the increase of heating temperature. When heating temperature is constant, the grain size increases slightly with increase of holding time. By compared CA simulation results with experimental results, the maximum relative error is 16.5%. It is proved that cellular automaton method may be used to predict the microstructure evolution of AZ31 magnesium alloy during isothermal heating process.
