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.

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.

In this research, the fatigue behaviors of carbonitrided Cr-Mo(SCM415) steel are examined. From fatigue test results, we propose a modified fatigue strength evaluation model and modified formulae. That is, we develop improved models fur evaluating and predicting the fatigue strength of carbonitrided SCM415 by modifying specific terms in the Murakami and Endo's model which is the representative fatigue strength evaluation formulae fur high strength steel.

Recently, a lot of work and interest have been devoted to the development of multiaxial fatigue parameters for fretting fatigue life prediction. In this study, the fretting fatigue lift and critical location ware estimated and evaluated through the multiaxial fatigue theories in a cylinder-on-flat contact configuration far Cr-Mo steel, SCM420, the material commonly is used in gears of the automobile and rollers of the conveyor. The strain-life curve was obtained from fatigue test for SCM420. The Fretting fatigue life and critical location were estimated through stress distributions, SWT-parameters and FS-parameters obtained from FEA. This paper showed possibility of applying multiaxial fatigue theories to fretting fatigue lift prediction comparing predicted life with experimental results.

고온에서 장시간 사용된 재료는 재질의 열화현상으로 인하여 재료의 인성이나 물성이 저하되고 재료의 수명이 한계를 가지게 된다. 이러한 열화 되는 물리적, 기계적 특성 변화는 파괴적 또는 비파괴적 방법에 의해 측정이 가능하다. 비파괴적 방법은 대상기기의 평가부위가 한정된다는 단점이 있으나 실제 사용기기를 훼손하지 않고 재료의 상태를 파악할 수 있는 장점이 있기 때문에 파괴적 방법에 비하여 효율적이다. 재료의 인성이나 물성의 저하를 평가하는 여러 가지 비파괴적 방법들이 있지만 장시간 사용에 따른 열화정도를 판별할 수 있는 정량적인 비파괴적 방법은 아직까지 큰 성과를 얻지 못하고 있다.

Time-resolved laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (TRELIBS) has been developed and applied to the qualitative analysis of the component materials of nuclear power plant. The alloy samples used in this work were carbon steels (A106 Gr. B; A336 P11; A335 P22), stainless steels (type 304; type 316) and inconel alloys (Inconel 600; Inconel 690; Inconel 800). Carbon steels can be individually distinguished by the intensity ratio of chromium to iron and molybdenum to iron emission lines observed at the wavelength raging from 485 to 575 nm. Type 316 stainless steel can be easily differentiated from type 304 by identification of the molybdenum emission lines at an emission wavelength ranging from 485 to 575 nm: type 304 does not give any molybdenum emission lines, but type 316 does. The inconel alloys can be individually distinguished by the intensity ratio of Cr/Fe and Ni/Fe emission lines at the wavelength raging from 420 to 510 nm. TRELIBS has been proved to be a powerful analytical technique for direct analysis of alloys due to its non-destructivity and simplicity.

Artificial aging was performed to simulate the microstructural degradation in 2.25Cr-1Mo steel arising from long time exposure at $540^{\circ}C$. Microstructural analysis (mean equivalent size, number of carbides per unit area) and measurement of mechanical properties(UTS, Vickers hardness) and magnetic properties(coercivity, remanence) were performed. By comparing these results, the relationship between magnetic properties and microstructural changes with artificial aging was clarified. The carbides were classified as rod, globular and acicular type in terms of morphology. The fine acicular carbides were found to diminish drastically in the initial stage of aging. The magnetic coercivity and remanence were observed to decrease rapidly in the initial about 920 hours of aging time and then decrease slowly afterwards. Linear correlations between the mechanical properties and magnetic properties such as correlations remanence were found.

The wear corrosion behaviour of a nitrogen ion implanted super stainless steel (S.S.S, 22Cr - 20Ni - 6Mo - 0.25N) was compared with those of S.S.S, 316L SS and TiN coated 316L SS. The Cr and Ni amounts won out from the materials were investigated using an electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. We observed that the Cr dissolution rate of the S.S.S was similar to that of 316L SS, however, the Ni release of the S.S.S was feater than 316L SS. The metal ions released from the nitrogen ion implanted S.S.S surface were significantly reduced. The wear corrosion behaviour of the stainless steels was not correlated with the results shown by a static metal ion release test.

This present study was investigated effect of Ni contents on the high temperature strength characteristic in 9Cr ferritic heat-resistant steel added 1.7%W in place of Mo in order to restraint laves phase formation. Precipitation amount of carbide, number of particle per unit area and particle size of carbide were decreased with increase of Ni content. In the steels, carbides of $M_{23}C_6$ type was mainly precipitated, but laves phases could not precipitated. Tensile and yield strength, creep strength and creep rupture time was decreased, but elongation were increased due to decreasing of particle number per unite area and carbide amount precipitated with increase of Ni content.

The steel for automotive exhaust system needs a good corrosion resistance at the atmosphere of high temperature NaCl. Effect of the alloying elements Me, Ti, Nb on the NaCl induced hot corrosion behavior was investigated at the temperatures between 55$0^{\circ}C$ and 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 18Cr ferritic stainless steels. The weight loss by corrosion has increased linearly with corrosion cycle time, and the corrosion rate has accelerated at higher temperature. The alloying of Mo significantly improved corrosion resistance of the steel and the effect was more pronounced at higher temperature. The addition of alloying elements Ti, Nb have also shown improved corrosion resistance by formation of Ti(C,N) or Nb(C, N) precipitates.
