High Entropy Alloys for Targeted Additive Manufacturing Aerospace applications (HEAT-AM)

HEAT-AM旨在为航空航天应用的增材制造（AM）开发新的计算机辅助（基于CALPHAD）合金设计方法。与传统的试错法相比，这种方法将大大降低新合金开发的成本和交付周期。新型靶向高熵合金（HEA）将被设计出来，并为AM生产球形粉末。这些材料是高性能材料的前沿。它们的高组态熵混合在高温下更稳定。这一特性使得合适的合金元素能够提高材料的性能，从而提供了巨大的可能性，例如在喷气发动机应用中的潜在结构材料。新材料将与现有合金进行评估，并制定工业规模扩大的路线图。HEAT-AM的成功将推动AM航空航天应用新材料的技术进步。

HEAT-AM aims to develop novel computer-assisted (CALPHAD-based) alloy design approaches for Additive Manufacturing (AM) for aerospace applications. This approach will significantly reduce costs and lead-times for new alloy development compared to conventional trial and error methods.Novel targeted high entropy alloys (HEA) will be designed and spherical powders produced for AM. These materials characterise the cutting edge of high-performance materials. Their high configuration entropy mixing is more stable at elevated temperatures. This attribute allows suitable alloying elements to increase the properties of the materials, which gives tremendous possibilities, such as potential structural materials in jet engine applications.Novel materials will be evaluated against established alloys and a roadmap developed for their industrial scale up. The success of HEAT-AM will initiate technological advancement of new materials for AM aerospace applications.
