Research on a New Secondary Creep Model and Creep Damage Evolution for P92 Steel

Abstract:

In the traditional Norton-Bailey model, the stress exponent is a constant value when the temperature keeps constant, But for some materials, this situation can’t be suitable. Based on the analysis of the experimental data, a secondary creep constitutive model which can be used in the stress exponent changing situation has been proposed. By introducing Kachanov-Rabotnov damage equation, the modified creep model has been established for P92 steel at 610°C and 670°C, which can describe the second and tertiary stage. And the method to determine creep parameters of tertiary stage has been derived. The new model was embedded into ANSYS interface program, and used for calculating the creep life of P92 steel. The results show that the model is in agreement with the experimental data.
