Effect of dissolved oxygen and temperature on fatigue crack growth rate behaviour of SA312 Type 304L(N) material in water environment
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract The present study aims at quantification of Fatigue Crack Growth Rate (FCGR) parameters under different dissolved oxygen levels in water at room temperature (RT) and 300 °C for SA312 Type 304L(N). The tests were conducted under 0.005 Hz loading frequency. With a presumption that strain rate (or frequency) does not affect FCGR in air at RT, a reference test was carried out in air under 10 Hz frequency for comparison purpose. The FCGR in water (0.005 Hz) is significantly higher than air reference test (10 Hz). The microscopic investigations revealed corrosion-fatigue synergy to be leading factor for higher FCGR in water at 300 °C. However, strain rate dependent Deformation-Induced-Martensite (DIM) transformation was predominant in water at RT. Recent studies on this material also brought out higher DIM formation under 0.01 Hz compared to 10 Hz at RT in air environment. The FCGR results in air environment are consistent with that in water at RT under lower frequency regime.
