Sumario:During the forging process GH901 superalloys easily produce cracks and defects, such as coarse crystals in tissues, which affect the performance of the alloy. Using GH901 nickel-based alloy, high-temperature compression tests at deformation temperatures of 990, 1040, 1090 and 1140 °C were carried out in a Thermecmastor-Z thermal simulator, with strain rates 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 and 1 s<sup>−1</sup>. Next, the isothermal forging process of a GH901 disc was simulated using DEFORM finite element simulation software. The results showed that with the increase in deformation temperatures and the decrease in strain rates, the flow stress clearly decreased. The flow stress constitutive model of GH901 superalloy under <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msub><mi>ε</mi><mrow><mn>0.3</mn></mrow></msub></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> and the flow stress constitutive model for strain compensation were obtained. The processing map was built, and a reasonable range of thermal processing was obtained. Meanwhile, the isothermal forging simulation verified the reliability of the thermal processing range of the alloy.
