Accurate Time–Temperature Transformation Modeling

TTT Gen generates both time-temperature-transformation (TTT) and continuous-cooling-transformation (CCT) diagrams using the DANTE material database. Engineers gain clear insight into phase evolution during heating and cooling, helping support process design, alloy evaluation, and simulation setup. This tool allows users to enhance their DANTE material database.

Robust Material Definition

TTT Gen uses the DANTE material database and transformation kinetics to generate TTT and CCT diagrams. It supports:

  • Carbon in solution
  • Carbon in carbide form
  • Alloy variation from nominal composition
  • Both TTT and CCT diagrams use the same material definition.

 

Configurable TTT and CCT Process Inputs

Users can flexibly define transformation conditions:

  • TTT: Upper/lower temperature boundaries and isothermal hold time
  • CCT: Starting/ending temperatures plus fastest and slowest cooling times

Advanced Transformation Controls

Shared controls for TTT and CCT include:

  • Activation/deactivation of the DANTE Tempering model
  • Activation/deactivation of the Carbon Separation model
  • Limits on maximum changes for phases, temperature, and carbon
  • Unit selection (°C/°F, seconds/minutes)

Generation of TTT and CCT Diagrams

TTT Gen outputs complete transformation curves used for:

  • Understanding diffusive transformation behavior
  • Designing or validating heat treatment processes
  • Providing input for downstream simulations 

Consistent Framework Across Heating and Cooling Paths

A unified material and controls system ensures consistent diagram generation for both isothermal and continuous-cooling transformations.
