Effects of Addition of V and Nb on Ω in High Cr Ferritic Steels

Article Preview

Abstract:

Creep tests and microstructural observations in several high Cr ferritic steels bearing V and Nb were carried out in order to investigate effects of addition of V and Nb on , which is a coefficient of  method. Creep strength was improved with increasing the V content and was slightly lowered by increasing the Nb content.  in all the steels bearing V or Nb was lager than that in fundamental steel. The dependence of  on the amount of additions was different between V and Nb. In steels bearing V,  became larger with increasing V content. In steels bearing Nb,  became smaller. These results revealed that  corresponds to the creep strength, indicating that the value of  can be estimated using the strengthening effects of the additive element.
