Abstract: Phase transformation and precipitation behavior of Fe-(15-25)Cr-(15-25)Mn-(0-5)Ni-(0-1)Mo-(0-1)N-(0-0.8)C multicomponent high nitrogen steel for non-magnetic drilling collar during equilibrium solidification were investigated by using Thermo-Calc software. The vertical sections of the phase diagram for this steel were calculated by using the TCFE9 database. Effects of Cr, Mn, Ni, Mo, N and C on phase transformation of the steel during solidification and cooling were analyzed, and the equilibrium solidification phase transformation path diagram was obtained. The results show that increasing Cr and Mn contents can significantly improve the solubility of nitrogen, Mo can slightly improve it, while Ni and C can significantly reduce it. With the increase of Ni, C and N contents, the single-phase austenite phase zone can be enlarged and the austenite can be stabilized. With the increase of Cr, Mo and Mn contents, the single-phase austenite phase zone can be reduced and the ferrite can be stabilized. The nitrogen can promote the precipitation of M2(C,N) phase and inhibit the precipitation of M23C6 phase. The Cr and Mn can promote the precipitation of sigma phase, while C and N can inhibit the precipitation of sigma phase. The precipitation of M23C6 phase is mainly affected by the content of C, and with the increase of C content, the precipitation temperature of M23C6 phase increases significantly.
