A phase-field model for the precipitation of Fe-Cr-Al alloy is established incorporating grain boundary (GB) effects and irradiation-accelerated diffusion. The radiation source and grain boundary effect are incorporated to broaden the applicability of the Fe-Cr-Al precipitated phase-field model. The model is firstly employed to simulate the precipitation of the Cr-rich α' phase in a single-crystal alloy. The precipitation rate and the size distribution of the precipitated phase were analyzed. Subsequently, the model is utilized to simulate segregation at GBs in a double-crystal system, analyzing the enrichment of Cr and depletion of Al near these boundaries. The simulation results are consistent with experimental observations reported in the references. Finally, the model is applied to simulate the precipitation in a polycrystalline Fe-Cr-Al system. The simulated results revealed that the presence of GBs induces the formation of localized regions with enhanced Cr and Al content as well as depleted zones adjacent to these boundaries. GBs also diminish both the quantity and precipitation rate of the formed phase within the grains.
