β¦ Synopsis
The motion of grain boundary located pores by an evaporation/condensation mechanism has been analyzed, and compared with surface diffusion dominated pore motion. It has been demonstrated that evaporation/condensation becomes important at high temperatures and large pore sizes. A lower bound condition for the separation of pores from two grain interlaces, independent of the pore or grain size, has been identified. Subsequent calculations of the motion of pores attached to three grain edges have permitted the prediction of pore/grain size trajectories. The trajectories indicate that the initial pore/grain size ratio must be smaller than a critical value to ensure that pore shrinkage continues and hence, that a fully dense material ensues. R&m&-Nous avons analysk le dtplacement de pores integranu~aires par un m&canisme d'&vaporation et de condensation et nous l'avons compari au mouvement des pores domink par la diffusion superficieile. Nous avons montre que l%vaporation et la condensation deviennent importantes aux terneratures tlevts et aux fortes tailles de pores. Nous avons identifit une condition de Simite inftrieure pour que les pores se &parent des interfaces entre deux grains, condition indtpendante de la taille des pores et des grains. Des calculs du dCplacement des pores attaches a I'arEte commune ;i trois grains ont permis de privoir les trajectoires des pores et de la taille des grains. Les trajectoires montrent que le rapport initial des tailles des pores et des grains doit itre infbrieur i une valeur critique pour qu'on soit sCr que la diminution des pores continue et done que I'on tvolue vers un mattriau tout d fait dense. Zusammenfassung-Die Bewegung von Poren, die an Korngrenzen sitzen, wurde mit einem Ver-dampfun~Kondensationsm~hanismus analysiert und mit der durch Oberflachendiffusion gesteuerten Porenbewegung verglichen. Dieser Verdampfungs-Kondensationsmechanismus wird bei hoher Temperatur und bei groBen Poren wichtig. FUr die untere Grenze des Abstandes von Poren wurde eine Bedingung; diese h%ngt nicht von der Poren-oder KorngrGBe ab. Nachfolgcnde Ber~hnungen der Bewegung von Poren. die an drei Komkanten ha&en, erm&glichten die Voraussage der Trajektorien Poren-KomgrdBe. Diese Trajektorien deuten an, daB das VerhPltnis PorengrijBe zu Beginn zu der Korngi%Ie lcleiner sein muR als ein kritischer Wert, damit die Poren kontinuierlich schrumpfen und somit ein vollstlndig verdichtetes Material ensteht.
