Faster Methods of Studying Quenching Aluminum through Jominy End Quench

Abstract

The Jominy end quench test is well known as a method of measuring Hardenability in steels. In non-ferrous alloys, there is a desire to determine the effect of quenching on final properties after heat treating. The Jominy End Quench test offers a method for studying many quenching conditions with a minimum of samples. The potential for developing new understanding of the complex response of non-ferrous alloys to processing conditions, especially quenching, will be presented. Examples of the properties measured on Jominy samples of aluminum will be included.
