In order to check the effect of dislocation behavior on creep rate in 12% Chromium steel, 14 samples of different compositions were examined by creep rupture test, and subgrain sizes, distribution of dislocations and precipitates were checked. And, authors reviewed the behaviors of dislocations, the formation and growth of subgrains and precipitates during creep. The results are as the following: 1) Creep rates calculated by .epsilon. over dot = .rho.bv show 10-15% higher values than actual data measured. However, authors conclude that the density and velocity of dislocations together with subgrain size are important factors governing deformation during creep in 12% chromium steel. 2) The values of the strength of obstacles in the mobility of dislocations are more clearly depended on the effective stress in the range of $10{\pm}5kgf/mm^{2}$ and increase with the increase of temperature. 3) Creep rates decrease with the smaller sizes of subgrains formed and can result in the longer creep rupture lives(hours). The smaller subgrains can be made by forming shorter free gliding distances of dislocations with very fine precipitates formed in the matrix during creep by applying proper alloy design. 4) Dislocation mobility gets hindered by precipitates occurring, which are coarsened by the softening process governed by diffusion during long time creep.

In this study, the degree of creep damages on the weldment accelerated creep degradation was nondestructively evaluated by replica method. The frequency of creep cavities occurrence has been observed highly at the intercritical HAZ. The life fraction of weldment damaged by creep has shown from 0.25(damage grade: 2) to 0.75(damage grade: 4) when it reptured. The degree of creep damages is considered to be evaluated by the metallographic replica method which is one of nondestructive evaluation methods.

The objective of research is to clarify the interaction between dislocations and precipitates during high temperature creep deformation behaviors of high n austenitic steels. After measuring the internal stress in minimum creep rate state under applied stress of 236MPa at 873K, a transmission electron microscope (TEM) observation was performed to investigate the interaction between dislocations and precipitates during high temperature creep deformation. The band widths and values of internal stress increased when the nitride precipitates distribute more densely. Fine nitrides disturbed the dislocation movement with pinning the dislocations and perfect dislocations were separated into Shockley partial dislocations by fine nitrides. Coarse nitrides disturbed the dislocation movement with climb mechanism.

고크롬강은 산업용 발전설비의 효율적인 열교환을 위해 수천개의 튜브로 구성된 보일러에 적용되고 있다. 이러한 보일러 튜브는 고온에 노출되어 있으며, 튜브 내면에는 고온의 증기가 고압으로 존재하고 있다. 따라서 보일러 튜브는 장기간 고온의 환경에서 사용되기 때문에 고온강도와 고온내산화 및 내부식 특성이 요구된다. 보일러 튜브의 열화는 이세조직 변화에 따른 고온강도의 저하를 재료내부의 열화와 고온산화 및 부식 등 외부환경에 의 한 열화로 크게 두 가지로 대별된다. 이러한 보일러 튜브의 수명평가는 튜브의 수명을 미리 예측하여 적절한 시점에 교체함으로서 운전 중 손상에 따른 발전정지 등을 방지하여 막대한 비용을 절감할 수 있기 때문에 현장에서는 중요한 의미를 갖는다. 본 연구에서는 보일러 튜브의 여러 가지 수명평가 방법 중 현재 산업용 발전설비의 보일러에 적용되고 있는 X-20 고크롬강의 고온산화 거동을 조사하여 향후 보일러 튜브의 수명평가 방법 중 산화스케일을 이용한 방법에 활용하는데 있어 기초 자료로 이용하고자 한다.

Laser beam hardenling of 12%-Cr steel has been evaluated by using a continuous wave 3 kW CO$\_$2/ laser with a hardening mirror set. Experiment was performed on the optimum hardening condition with a laser power of 2.85kW and travel speed of 10 and 5 m/min. Multi passes have been alsotried to find the hardening characteristics of partly overlapped zone. The black paint to use at high temperature was adopted to increases the absorptivity of laser beam energy with the wavelength of 10.6 .mu. m at the surface of bese metal. The microstructure of the hardened layers was observed by using a light microscopy. SEM and TEM. A fine lamellar martensite formed in the hardened zones exhibits very high Vickers microhardness of 600 Hv, whereas the tempered martesite distributes in the base metal with Vickers microhardness of 240 Hv. It has been found that laser hardening with multi pass showed no significant drop of the hardness between adjacent passes.

This paper proposed the method of fracture integrity evaluation for semi-elliptical crack. Plane strain fracture toughnesses are used to compare with the thermal shock stress intensity factors for semi-elliptical crack obtained by Vainshtok weight function method. The method is applied to the finite Cr Mo V and 2.25Cr Mo steel plates with semi-elliptical crack under the thermal shock. For the purpose, tensile property and fracture toughness with respect to the temperature are measured. To verify the method, thermal shock experiments are carried. The theoretical predictions are in good agreement with the experiments.

Double-layered Al-Mg films have been deposited by using an e-beam deposition method on a cold-rolled steel sheet(CR), which the structure of the film was Al/Mg/CR. The micro-structure, alloy phase, and corrosion resistance of the Al-Mg coated CR were investigated before and after heat treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2, 3, and 10 min in a nitrogen atmosphere. Total thickness of Al-Mg films was fixed at $3{\mu}m$ and the thickness ratio of Al and Mg layers(Al:Mg) has been changed from 5:1 to 1:5. The cross-sectional morphology of the films, which had the thickness ratio of 2:1(Al:Mg), 1:1, and 1:2, was changed after heat treatment from columnar to featureless structure. The x-ray diffraction data for as-deposited films showed only pure Al and Mg peaks. Al-Mg alloy peaks such as $Al_3Mg_2$ and $Al_{12}Mg_{17}$ phase appeared after the heat treatment. The Al-Mg coating with the thickness ratio of 1:1(Al:Mg) showed the best corrosion resistance of up to 500 hours by salt spray test.

The graphitization is affected by the addition of small amount of the elements(such as Si, Al, Ni, B, Cr and Mn etc.) and the pre-treatment(such as cold rolling). Boron is well known element to accelerate the graphitization of cementite in high carbon steels. Also, cold rolling is known to accelerate the graphitization. But the graphitization nucleation mechanism by cold rolling is few reported. Therefore the effect of cold rolling in Fe-0.5%C-1.0%Si-0.47%Mn-0.005%B steel on the graphitization is investigated quantitatively using hardness test, optical microscope and scanning electron microscope, neutron induced microscopic radiography. The nucleation of graphite in cold-rolled Fe-0.5%C-1.0%Si-0.47%Mn-0.005%B steel is formed at void which is formed at pearlite/pearlite boundary by cold rolling. But the effect of cold rolling on graphitization in boron addition steel is more effective than that of no boron addition steel due to segregation of BN at void in boron addition steel.
