Abstract:

Based on the problem of fatigue fracture of the T joint of the typical parts of the aircraft metal integral air inlet due to the resistance of air circulation during the service process， the TC4 titanium alloy was heat treated after the T joint welding with the laser double beam welding technology， and different heat treatments were studied. The effects of different heat treatment methods on microstructure， fatigue properties and fracture mechanism of welded joints were investigated. The results show that the fatigue life of the specimens with double annealing treatment is 1.89 times that of the specimens without heat treatment， and the fatigue life of the specimens with one annealing treatment is 1.43 times that of the specimens without heat treatment. The fatigue fracture analysis shows that， compared with the specimens without heat treatment， the fatigue stripe spacing in the stable fatigue crack growth zone of the specimens after heat treatment decreases， indicating that the fatigue crack growth rate decreases， so the fatigue life increases. After heat treatment， acicular α' martensite precipitates in the microstructure of the net basket， which increases the resistance to crack initiation and propagation and promotes the fatigue life of the specimen.

Key words: TC4 titanium alloy, fatigue fracture, heat treatment, laser double beam welding, fracture mechanism
