Abstract
Statistical examinations were made on the distribution of metallographical particles dispersed at random.
As the results, a convenient method for the estimation of the particle density was proposed on the basis of Poisson's distribution function.
The relative frequency distribution of the particle separation was approximately derived from the function, as the following formula :
PU=√2α(U2•e1-u2)α/U2D2/U2D2
where PU: relative frequency of U
α: constant, depending on experimental conditions
D: Average particle separation
Di: Individual particle separation
U: Relative particle separation ( = Di/D)
The above formula shows the broadening tendency of the distribution of particle separation with decreasing of the particle density. Therefore, the tendency of frequency distribution would promote the abnormal grain growth.
All the discussions mentioned above were confirmed by the experiments on 5056 alloy plates.
