Abstract

Direct supercritical CO 2 (sCO 2) power cycles require structural materials compatible with hot sCO 2 containing high levels of water and oxygen impurities. Chromia-forming Ni-based superalloys, which are leading candidates at temperatures > 600 °C, have shown good compatibility in pure sCO 2, however potential impurity effects are not well understood. Herein we exposed several commercial Ni-based alloys to 95%CO 2-4%H 2O-(1−3)%O 2 at 750 °C and 0.1 or 20 MPa for 2500 h. Protective chromia scales formed in all cases. Nevertheless, water vapor-assisted oxide volatilization clearly occurred at high pressure. The volatilization rates decreased with time, but still represent a potentially serious compatibility issue in real, high-velocity, sCO 2 systems.
