摘要

Rotary friction welding (RFW) was employed to join dissimilar compressor alloys TC17 and TA19. To quantify how axial pressure governs the interfacial microstructure, Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) was combined with a parent-β reconstruction algorithm grounded in the Burgers orientation relationship. Tubular joints were produced at ~ 80, 120, and 160 MPa under fixed linear speed and burn-off. Increasing pressure refined dynamically recrystallized prior-β grains on both sides of the interface (TC17: ~ 3.40 → 3.27 → 3.01 µm; TA19: ~ 2.86 → 2.80 → 2.33 µm). In contrast, the TA19 α′-lamella thickness after cooling displayed a non-monotonic trend, peaking at ~ 0.73 µm at 120 MPa (vs ~ 0.54 µm at 80 MPa and ~ 0.49 µm at 160 MPa), due to the interplay between prior-β grain size and high-temperature dwell/cooling history. The intermediate pressure resulted in the best interfacial microstructural matching. Uniform equiaxed β grains were formed across the interface, while the α′ colonies on the TA19 side were moderately coarsened. This improved matching led to better tensile behavior, with a UTS of about 750–765 MPa and an elongation approximately 50% higher than that at 160 MPa. These results show that welding pressure can be used as an effective single-parameter approach to regulate interfacial microstructural matching in dissimilar titanium welds. In addition, β reconstruction provides a useful method for quantitative process–structure–property optimization in integrated TC17/TA19 rotors.
