An assessment of a creep-fatigue crack initiation and growth for a Mod. 9Cr-1Mo steel structure with weldments has been carried out based on an extended French RCC-MR A16 procedure. The A16 defect assessment guide provides assessment procedures for a creep-fatigue crack initiation and growth for an austenitic stainless steel, but no guidelines are available yet for a Mod. 9Cr-1Mo steel. A creep-fatigue structural test was carried out for a Mod. 9Cr-1Mo specimen with two hours of a hold time at 873 K and various primary nominal stresses. σ d approach was employed to evaluate a creep-fatigue crack initiation, and an assessment of a creep-fatigue crack growth at a defect has also been carried out. The evaluation results were compared with the observed images from the structural test. 相似文献

Elevated-temperature fracture toughness properties were developed on ex-service 2-l/4Cr-1Mo steel weldments. Fracture toughness
was measured on both base and heat-affected zone (HAZ) metals. A composite specimen consisting of base, HAZ, and weld metals
was used to develop fracture toughness properties in the HAZ area. It was observed that the J-R curve of the HAZ was significantly
lower than that of the base metal. Increasing crack extension increased the difference between theJ-R curves of the base metal and the HAZ. Dimpled fracture was the prime fracture mode in the base metal specimen, and a mixed-mode
(ductile and “granular”) fracture was found in the HAZ specimens. Scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) examination
revealed significant intergranular carbide precipitation and agglomeration within the HAZ. The lower fracture toughness of
the HAZ, as compared to the base metal, was attributed to the large accumulation of carbides in the grain boundaries of the
HAZ, which weakened the grain boundaries and caused “granular” fracture. 相似文献

Detailed investigations have been performed to examine the creep-rupture behavior of a 1000-mm diameter and 300-mm-thick tube
plate forging of 9Cr-1Mo ferritic steel in quenched and tempered (Q + T), simulated postweld heat treatment (SPWHT), and thermally
aged (TA) conditions. Creep tests were conducted over a wide stress range (50 to 275 MPa) at 793 and 873 K. The alloy exhibited
well-defined primary, steady-state, and extended tertiary creep stages at all test conditions. At 793 K, no significant difference
in the creep-rupture properties was noted between Q + T, SPWHT, and TA conditions. On the other hand, SPWHT specimens exhibited
lower creep-rupture strength than that of Q + T specimens at 873 K. Applied stress (σ
a
) dependence of rupture life (t
r
) exhibited two-slope behavior. Both the Monkman-Grant (ε
s
.t
r
= C
MG) and modified Monkman-Grant (ε
s
.t
r
/ε
f
= C
MMG) relationships were found to be valid for 9Cr-1Mo steel, where ε
s
is the steady-state creep rate and ε
f
is the strain to failure. The two-slope behavior was also reflected as two constants in the Monkman-Grant relationship (MGR)
and modified Monkman-Grant relationship (MMGR) in the two stress regimes. Further, two creep damage tolerance factors (λ = 1/C
MMG) of 5 and 10 were also observed in the high and low stress regimes, respectively. The alloy exhibited high creep ductility,
which was retained for longer rupture lives at low stresses, and the creep ductility increased with increase in test temperature.
The failure mode remained trangranular under all test conditions. The extensive tertiary creep in the alloy has been attributed
to microstructural degradation associated with precipitates and dislocation substructure. The creep-rupture strength of the
forging was found to be lower than that of thin section bars and tubes. 相似文献

The tempering and subsequent annealing of modified 9Cr-lMo steel have been investigated to determine the influence of trace
amounts of V and Nb on the sequence of precipitation processes and to identify the basis for the enhanced high-temperature
strength compared to the standard 9Cr-lMo composition. Air cooling (normalizing) from 1045 °C results in the precipitation
of fine (Fe, Cr)3C particles within the martensite laths. Additional carbide precipitation and changes in the dislocation structure occur during
the tempering of martensite at 700 °C and 760 °C after normalizing. The precipitation of M23C6 carbides occurs preferentially at lath interfaces and dislocations. The formation of Cr2C was detected during the first hour of tempering over the range of 650 °C to 760 °C but was replaced by V4C3 within 1 hour at 760 °C. During prolonged annealing at 550 °C to 650 °C, following tempering, the lath morphology remains
relatively stable; partitioning of the laths into subgrains and some carbide coarsening are evident after 400 hours of annealing
at 650 °C, but the lath morphology persists. The enhanced martensite lath stability is attributed primarily to the V4C3 precipitates distributed along the lath interfaces and is suggested as the basis for the improved performance of the modified
9Cr-lMo alloy under elevated temperature tensile and creep conditions. 相似文献

The aim of the present paper is to study the low cycle fatigue and creep-fatigue interaction behavior of modified 9Cr-1Mo ferritic steel weld joint. Total axial strain controlled continuous cycling tests were conducted between 773 K and 873 K and at strain amplitudes ±0.25%, ±0.4%, ±0.6% and ±1%. Hold tests were also conducted at +0.6% and 823 K and 873 K temperatures to study the creep-fatigue interaction behavior of the weld joint. The alloy exhibited cyclic softening from first cycle onwards irrespective of the loading conditions. Failure location in the weld joint was correlated to the test parameters. Detailed replica study conducted on all the failed specimens revealed that most of the failures occurred in one side of the heat affected zone (HAZ) of the weld joint. Strain localization in the soft zone of the HAZ and subsurface creep cavity formation in this region and their linkage had caused enhanced crack propagation that translated into lower fatigue life of the weld joint at high temperatures. Type IV mode of failure was identified to be operative under tensile hold and high temperatures. The alloy was also found to be compressive dwell sensitive and it was ascertained that the lower life under compression hold compared to tension hold was due to the deleterious effect of oxidation. 相似文献

Low cycle fatigue tests of 9Cr-1Mo steel aged at 600°C for 5000 h and 10000 h were conducted at RT-600°C. Fatigue life was not decreased with aging. Cyclic softening was seen with cycles in both unaged and aged specimens. Aging decreased the amount of softening at RT and 400°C but increased it at 600°C. The precipitate species were not changed with aging upto 5000 h but Laves phase was precipitated after 10000 h aging. Fatigue life of 9Cr-1Mo steel aged to 10000 h is dependent on dislocation slip behavior rather than the amount and coarsening of precipitate. 相似文献

A study has been made of the effects of ageing at 550°C on the ductility and fracture mechanisms in a 9 Cr-1 Mo steel. Although the fracture mode remains ductile, ageing at times up to 5000 h causes a progressive reduction in ductility. Voids are nucleated at both coarsely distributed inclusions and at much more finely distributed precipitates, and the principal effect of ageing is to enhance void formation at precipitates. This enhancement is due to a combination of phosphorus segregation to carbide precipitate-matrix interfaces and, after ageing for 5000 h, to the precipitation of Fe2Mo (Laves phase). An important aspect of the observations is that void nucleation at precipitates occurs continuously with increasing strain until failure occurs and the results are consistent with a failure criterion based on the achievement of a critical void spacing. 相似文献

The ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) of 9Cr-1Mo steel was characterized by an RT
NDT-based K
IR
curve approach and a reference temperature (T
0)-based master curve (MC) approach. The MC was developed at a dynamic loading condition (loading rate of 5.12 m/s), using
precracked Charpy V-notch (PCVN) specimens, and the reference temperature was termed T
0
dy
. The RT
NDT and T
0
dy
were determined to be −25 °C and −52 °C, respectively. The T
0
dy
was also estimated from instrumented CVN tests, using a modified Schindler procedure to evaluate K
Jd
; the result shows close agreement with that obtained from the PCVN tests. The ASME K
IR
-curve approach proves to be too conservative compared to the obtained trend of the fracture toughness with temperature. The
cleavage fracture stress, σ*
f
, estimated from the critical length, l*, shows good agreement with that estimated from the load-temperature diagram (2400 to 2450 MPa), which was constructed from
the CVN test results. The crack initiation mechanism has been identified as decohesion of the particle-matrix interface, rather
than as the fracture of the particles. 相似文献

The ductile fracture characteristics of a commercial 9 Cr-1 Mo steel have been studied using tensile specimens of the material, both in the “as heat treated” (normalised and tempered) condition and after ageing. Transmission electron microscopy on foils cut from deformed samples has enabled the nucleation of voids at precipitate (carbide) particles to be monitored as a function of strain and an assessment of the growth characteristics of these voids has been made using this technique. An attempt has been made to account for the progressive nucleation of voids with strain in terms of a carbide size effect and the nucleation and growth data have been combined to allow the effect of ageing on the damage accumulation process associated with ductile fracture to be treated quantitatively. 相似文献

The effect of normalization temperature from 850 °C to 1050 °C on the structure and creep-rupture properties of modified 9Cr-1Mo
steel was studied. Normalization at temperatures below 925 °C resulted in structures containing significant polygonized, recovered
ferrite. The ferrite structures had poor creep-rupture strength: roughly two orders of magnitude increase in minimum creep
rate or decrease in rupture life for 850 °C compared to 1050 °C normalization at test conditions of 600 °C and 145 MPa. Room-temperature
strength and hardness were also reduced. The microstructure after normalization at the standard 1050 °C temperature consisted
of tempered martensite with fine M23C6 carbide along prior austenite and lath boundaries and fine MX carbonitride precipitates within the laths. Normalization at
temperatures between 925 °C and 1000 °C also resulted in reduced creep strength in comparison with 1050 °C normalization,
even though tempered martensite microstructures were formed and little change in room-temperature strength was observed; the
reduction was attributed to subtle differences in the MX precipitates. The effect of reduced normalization temperature was
more pronounced for higher-temperature, lower-stress creep-rupture conditions. 相似文献

The present article describes the microstructural heterogeneity in the weldments of 9Cr-1Mo steel, in the as-welded condition.
The thermal cycle, which each microscopic region undergoes, depends on its distance from the source of heat. The consequent
differences in the type of phase transformations experienced by the various zones are established using detailed analytical
transmission electron microscopy studies. Based on these studies, distinct microstructural zones are identified and the temperature
profiles of the same are deduced. 相似文献

Generation IV reactors are being developed to produce a reliable energy safely and with an economic benefit, because nuclear energy is being seriously considered to meet the increasing demand for a world-wide energy supply without environmental effects. Ferritic/martensitic steels are attracting attention as candidate materials for the Gen-IV reactors due to their high strength and thermal conductivity, low thermal expansion, and good resistance to corrosion. In recent years, new ferritic/martensitic steels have been developed for ultra supercritical fossil power plants through advanced technologies for steel fabrication. The microstructural stability of these materials for the pressure vessel, cladding and core structure of the VHTR and SFR is very important. Nitrogen is a precipitation hardening element, and the thermal stability of nitrides is superior to that of carbides. So the formation of nitrides may improve the thermal stability of the microstructure and eventually increase the creep rupture strength of high Cr steels. The effect of nitrogen on the creep rupture strength and microstructure evolution of nitrogen-added Mod.9Cr-1Mo steels has been studied. Creep testing was carried out at 873 and 923 K under constant load conditions. The optimum controlled Cr2X precipitates were developed by special heat treatment, and they were not dissolved after a creep deformation. These fine and stable Cr2X precipitates contributed to the increase of the creep rupture strength. The prior austenite grain size and martensite lath width were decreased by the resultant stable nitrides. 相似文献

The grain boundary character distribution (GBCD) and microstructure in 9Cr-1Mo ferritic/martensitic steel subjected to different heat treatments and thermomechanical treatments (TMTs) have been evaluated using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) technique. Microstructures obtained through displacive transformation of high-temperature austenite yielded higher amounts of Σ1-29 coincidence site lattice (CSL) boundaries (from 29 to 38 pct) compared with the ferrite grains obtained by diffusional transformation (~16 pct) or by recrystallization process (~14 pct). Specifically, the low-angle (Σ1), Σ3, Σ11, and Σ25b boundaries were enhanced in the tempered martensite substructure, whereas the prior austenite grain boundaries were largely of random type. Misorientation between the product ferrite variants for ideal orientation relationships during austenite transformation was calculated and compared with CSL misorientation to find its proximity based on Brandon’s criteria. The observed enhancements in Σ1, Σ3, and Σ11 could be interpreted based on Kurdjumov–Sachs (K–S) relation, but Nishiyama–Wassermann (N–W) relation was needed to understand Σ25b formation. The amounts of CSL boundaries in the tempered martensite structure were not significantly influenced by austenite grain size or the kinetics of martensitic transformation. In mixed microstructures of “polygonal ferrite + tempered martensite”, the frequencies of CSL boundaries were found to systematically decrease with increasing amounts of diffusional/recrystallized ferrite. 相似文献

The strength of 2 1/4 Cr-1 Mo steel depends on the microstructure, which, in turn, de-pends on the heat treatment. In the
fully annealed and isothermally annealed conditions, the microstructure is primarily proeutectoid ferrite with varying amounts
of bainite and pearlite. The relative amounts of the latter constituents depend on the cooling rates during the anneal. The
creep and rupture properties were determined for steel plates (from a single heat) given three different annealing treatments:
two were fully annealed, but cooled at different rates from the austenitizing temperature, and the third was iso-thermally
annealed. Properties were determined at 454, 510, and 566°C. At 454 and 510°C, the cooling rate had a significant effect on
the creep and rupture properties, with the ma-terial cooled fastest being the strongest. Although at 510°C strengths at short
rupture times differed widely, the properties approached a common value at longer rupture times. The properties differed very
little at 566°C, even for short rupture times. The effect of heat treatment was concluded to be the result of interaction
solid solution hardening, a dislocation-drag process. This process gave rise to nonclassical creep curves (as op-posed to
classical curves with single primary, secondary, and tertiary stages). By examining the creep-curve shape, it was possible
to interpret the heat treatment effects on the creep-rupture properties. 相似文献

This paper presents results from a multi-frequency electromagnetic sensor used to evaluate the microstructural changes in 9Cr-1Mo and 2.25Cr-1Mo power generation steels after tempering and elevated temperature service exposure. Electromagnetic sensors detect microstructural changes in steels due to changes in the relative permeability and resistivity. It was found that the low frequency inductance value is particularly sensitive to the different relative permeability values of both steels in the different microstructural conditions. The changes in relative permeability have been quantitatively correlated with the microstructural changes due to tempering and long-term thermal exposure, in particular to changes in martensitic/bainitic lath size and number density of carbide precipitates that determine the mean free path to reversible domain wall motion. The role of these microstructural features on pinning of magnetic domain wall motion is discussed. 相似文献

The kinetics of hydrogen attack (HA) has been studied in the heat affected zone (HAZ) in a 2.25Cr-1Mo steel weld to determine
the relative rates of attack and bubble nucleation in the HAZ, base metal, and weld metal. The HAZ was found to suffer hydrogen
attack at nearly twice the rate of the base metal, but not as rapidly as the weld metal. Nucleation of bubbles does not occur
during HA of the HAZ of a 2.25Cr-1Mo steel, on exposure to hydrogen pressure of 20.5 MPa or less, but does occur at higher
pressures up to 31.5 MPa (4500 psi) at 550 °C, or up to 27.5 MPa (4000 psi) at 580 °C. Such nucleation results in enhancement
of the HA rate by a factor of six. The weak dependence of nucleation effects on hydrogen pressure and the saturation of the
nucleation effects in a short time suggest some thermally activated nucleation of fresh bubbles.

The Ball-Indentation (BI) testing based on multiple cycles of loading-unloading using a spherical indenter is a useful technique for evaluating tensile properties from a very small volume of material. In this study, the BI technique has been used in a novel way to evaluate the changes in mechanical properties of Modified (Mod) 9Cr-1Mo caused by creep exposures. Microstructural degradation of varying degrees in Mod 9Cr-1Mo steel is simulated by conventional creep test terminated at various strains. By carrying out BI tests on unstressed head and stressed gage portions of the creep specimens, the changes in the strength and ductility are evaluated. Microstructural evolution in the creep exposed conditions studied using transmission electron microscopy is related to the strength changes caused by the stressed exposures. 相似文献
