Abstract

Eutectic high entropy alloy with seven components is designed based on the integrated computational materials engineering (ICME) framework. The framework includes thermodynamic prediction using calculation of phase diagrams (CALPHAD), microstructure simulation using phase-field method, and experimental validation. The designed alloy shows the eutectic structure consisting of FCC and laves phase in the composition range from 8.25 to 10 at. pct Ta. The simulation and experimental results are co-related and a framework is proposed that can be used for high entropy alloy design subjected to various manufacturing processes.
