Abstract: | The influence of welding on creep behaviour of modern steels for thermal power generation Un‐ and low alloyed ferritic/bainitic Chromium steels as well as high alloyed ferritic/martensitic 9–12 % Chromium steels are widely used for high temperature components in thermal power generation. Welding in all its variety is the major repair and joining technology for such components. The weld thermal cycle has significant influence on the base material microstructure and its properties. The Heat Affected Zone is often regarded as the weakest link during high temperature service. While weldments of un‐ and low alloyed ferritic Chromium steels can show significant susceptibility to Reheat Cracking in the coarse grained heat affected zone, weldments of high alloyed ferritic Chromium steels generally fail by Type IV Cracking in the fine grained heat affected zone during long term service. In this paper the influence of the weld thermal cycle on the base material microstructure is described. Long‐term creep behaviour of weldments is directly related to the main failure mechanisms in creep exposed ferritic weldments and implications for industries using heat resistant ferritic steels are shown. |
