Quenching is a process used to preserve at room temperature a phase which exists in
equilibrium at high temperature but which would decompose during equilibrium
cooling. Explain the basis of this process in the precipitation process and martensitic
transformation. Use phase diagrams when necessary.
Consider the phase diagram below. The three points A, B, and C are at concentrations of 27, 31.9, and 33.8 wt% Ni respectively. The
ends of the tie line are at C1 = 25% wt% Ni and C2 = 35 wt% Ni. What are the weight fractions of the alpha phase at A and the L phase at
B, as well as the alpha phase/L phase ratio at C?
