【 摘 要 】

The phenomenological analysis of recrystallization data is described. The concept of microstructural path is briefly introduced as well as some of its relevant equations. The correct equation for the impingement compensated chord length is introduced and used here for the first time. The theory is then applied to data from the recrystallization of a commercial Al-Mn-Fe-Si (AA3003) alloy. It is concluded that nucleation is site saturated and that the grain boundary velocity decreases with time. The analysis also shows that the shape of the recrystallized regions significantly deviates from spherical as the reaction progresses, probably because of the boundary/precipitates interaction.
