The morphology and phase compositions of the corrosion products formed on the investigated tubes were analysed using X-ray diffraction and a scanning electron microscope with an energy dispersive spectroscopy detector. The results showed that the thickness of the corrosion products on the tube fireside was larger than that on the steam-side of the investigated tubes, which was due to the sulphur in the flue gas. The thickness rank of the corrosion products on the investigated steels was T122 > Super304H > HR3C. Defects including micro-cracks and voids were found in the corrosion products on both sides of the three tubes, which led to the breakaway of corrosion products.","PeriodicalId":49877,"journal":{"name":"Materials at High Temperatures","volume":"57 1","pages":"88 - 98"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2023-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90992435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A recent model, expressly developed for particle-strengthened alloys, was successfully used to describe the minimum creep rate dependence on applied stress for AISI 316 and 316 L(N). The same set of constitutive equations, in combination with the composite model, was then used for describing creep data obtained by testing the AISI 316 L produced by additive manufacturing. The main difference with wrought materials was that the microstructure of the additively manufactured alloy was composed by cells (soft zones) and thick walls heavily decorated with ultrafine oxide particles (hard zones).","PeriodicalId":49877,"journal":{"name":"Materials at High Temperatures","volume":"35 ( Pt 2) 1","pages":"48 - 63"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86504998","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Presently the standard assumes “rule-of-thumb” values for no-creep temperatures of ferritic and austenitic steels, 375°C and 425°C correspondingly. It is thought well known that the lower ferritic grades could be creeping below the limit temperature and creep strength enhanced ferritic steels may show significant creep at temperatures well beyond it. Similarly, austenitic steels; nickel and other alloys are likely to have an even wider range of limit temperatures. This paper describes the data assessments and test methods used to determine limit temperatures for a specific set of steels and comparisons are made to other standards and nuclear design codes.

One possible fuel is biomass; a carbon neutral/low carbon fuel. However biomasses’ chemistries are both different from coal’s and vary depending on their sources, containing unique levels of the trace elements (e.g., Cl and S) capable of altering the degradation of heat-exchangers. As such, an understanding of the effects of these variations on fireside corrosion is needed. Laboratory testing exposed alloys T91 and TP347HFG in a simulated agricultural product combustion environment at 600°C (up to 1000h; 100h cycles). Three different deposits mixtures were investigated (comprised of KCl, K2SO4, Na2SO4, CaSO4 indifferent percentages) mimicking accelerated corrosion from different biomasses. Corrosion behaviour was found to be dependant on both alloy and deposit chemistries, with the two materials showing different responses.

The entire system has been modelled for creep evaluation to make it possible to compare the simulated creep stress and strain distributions in selected welds with observed amounts of creep cavitation, which can be correlated to the accumulated creep strain. Creep data for the analyses were produced by creep testing of service exposed base and weld metals from a pipe weld and a T-piece branch weld from the system. In addition, the creep tested welds were studied metallographically to map the creep damage and make it possible to compare the damage development with the resulting creep stress and strain distributions in the weld. In the previous project also a T-piece branch weld was investigated in a similar way and those results were used for verification of the re-analyses in present project with the updated system model. The following results were achieved: The model of the entire steam pipe system was created in Abaqus and the strain distributions were verified in comparison to a corresponding elastic Caepipe model. The Norton creep law was used for the simulations. In addition, also primary creep was analysed. The effects of primary creep on the long-term creep behaviour was significant and the results shows the importance of including primary creep into the model. There is no effect of starts and stops on the stress and strain distributions in the system during creep. The system analysis results showed enhanced strains up to 2.1% at one bend and 0.5–1.0% in some parts of the system. Although replica testing had not been conducted directly at the bend the high strains indirectly agreed with the observations of small creep cracks had been observed in replica testing of in a weld at one of the ends of the actual bend. Furthermore, several components in the system have been exchanged due to creep crack formation. Moderate levels creep damage was observed in the pipe weld. The analysis of this pipe weld gave somewhat lower creep strains than expected. The stress and strain distributions matched with the maximum principal stress criterion but not with the von Mises stress that Abaqus uses for creep analyses by default. The analysis of the branch weld matched well with observed creep damage distributions whereas the maximum strain level of 0.4% appears to be rather low in comparison to the quite extensive creep damage. However, local constraint and multiaxiality in welds lead to significantly lower creep ductility compared to uniaxial creep and contribute to a reasonable agreement between the strain and the damage levels.
