Abstract: The Ni-based superalloy GTD-111DS has been widely used as the material of the first stage blade of gas turbine. But there are little data available on the microstructure and mechanical property. The strength and ductility of GTD-111DS decrease more rapidly due to the acceleration of its microstructure degradation under high temperature. The results of study showed that the shape of γ' did not change with increased aging time but the amount and volume fraction of the deposition of secondary γ' increased and secondary γ' grew among primary γ'. Also there was difference of yield strength and tensile strength in room temperature according to heat treatment and collecting region.

Abstract: A burst rupture test has been mainly used for evaluating the burst properties of internal pressurized tubes. Although the burst creep test provides accurate results, its complicated and material-wasting process makes it difficult to perform this test. In the burst test, it is known that the hoop stress is a main reason of burst, so it can be expected that the burst rupture properties are strongly related with the hoop creep rupture properties. A ring test is occasionally used for obtaining the hoop directional properties of tube-shaped structures. In this study, the creep rupture properties of Zirlo tubing are investigated at temperature ranging from 365 to 570  using the ring specimens. An analysis of the fractography was performed and the estimation of service life with Larson-Miller parameter was conducted. Finally, In view of the Dorn equation of power-law, the creep mechanism was determined and discussed.

Abstract: When huge energy transfer systems like nuclear power plants and steam power plants are operated for long times at high temperatures, mechanical properties change and ductile-brittle transition temperature increases by degradation. So we must estimate the degradation in order to assess safety, life expectancy, and other operation parameters. The sub-sized specimen test method using the surveillance specimen, and BI (Ball Indentation) method were developed for evaluating the integrity of metallic components. In this study, we will present the evaluation of the ductile-brittle transition temperature using the BI test and the sub-sized specimen test. The four classes of the thermally aged 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V specimens were prepared using an artificially accelerated aging method. The tensile test, the fracture toughness test, and the BI test were performed. The results of the fracture toughness tests using the sub-sized specimens were compared with those of the BI test. The evaluation technique of the ductile-brittle transition temperature using the BI test was also discussed. Our results show that the ductile-brittle transition temperatures rose as the aging time increased. We suggested that the fracture toughness results of the sub-sized specimen test and the IEF results of the BI test could be used in the estimation of the ductile-brittle transition temperature as material degrades.

Abstract: In the case of inner pressurized pipe, the hoop stress mainly causes the failure of pipe. For evaluating the hoop tensile properties of pipes, a ring test is used although it has an inevitable shortcoming of disturbance by the bending. Arsene suggested a central piece-inserted ring test for reducing the bending. At high temperatures, the friction between the specimen and the central piece exerts a serious influence on the results, so an effect on friction should be considered in the analysis. In this study, for the evaluation of the hoop properties using the central piece-inserted ring model of Arsene, we performed the ring tensile tests at several temperatures. From the ring tensile tests and numerical analysis the load-displacement conversion relationship of ring specimen (LCRR) was determined. We could obtain the hoop tensile properties by means of applying the LCRR to the results of the ring tensile test. From the result, it was observed that the strength decreased as the temperature increased, and the elongation dropped a little around 400°C.

Abstract: It's required that mechanical properties of in-service facilities maintain the safety of operation in power plants as well as chemical plants. In this study the four classes of thermally aged 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V specimens were prepared using an artificially accelerated aging method at 630°C. Ultrasonic tests, tensile tests, KIC tests and hardness tests were performed in order to evaluate the degree of the material degradation. The mechanical properties deteriorated as the specimen degraded, but the attenuation coefficient and the harmonic generation level of the ultrasonic signal increased. The non-linear parameter derived from the harmonic generation level is especially sensitive and will be a good parameter to evaluate the material degradation.
