In this study, the tensile and creep rupture behaviors of dissimilar (SA-387 Grade 91/309S or 310S/SUS-304) joint by friction welding at high temperatures were examined. The effects of temperature and applied stress on the failure locations of the dissimilar welded joints were also investigated. Creep rupture testing was conducted at 600°C and 650°C under stresses ranging from 40 to 160 MPa and 30 to 80 MPa, respectively. For all the temperatures at which the tests were conducted, the creep rupture strengths of the friction welded dissimilar metal joints were found to be lower than those of the 9Cr-1Mo-V-Nb steel base metal and dissimilar joints welded using Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). A new type of fracture was observed for the friction welded dissimilar joints.

An experimental work of dissimilar friction welding was conducted using 15 mm diameter solid bar in copper alloy (Cu-1Cr-0.5Zr) to stainless steel (STS316L) for being used as fusion reactor component materials, not only to optimize the friction welding parameters, but also to investigate the elevated temperature tensile strength and creep rupture properties for the friction welded joints under the optimal welding conditions. The main friction welding parameters were selected to endure good quality welds on the basis of visual examination, tensile tests, Vickers hardness survey of the bond area and HAZ. For friction weld joining of copper alloy to stainless steel bars, the total upset increases lineally as increasing heating time. Optimal welding conditions were selected as follows: Rotational speed 2000rpm, friction pressure 80MPa, upsetting pressure 140MPa, heating time 2 second, upsetting time 5 second and total upset 13mm. The weld interface of dissimilar friction welded steel bars was mixed strongly. And also the creep properties and creep life prediction by Larson-Miller parameter method were presented at the elevated temperatures of 300, 400 and 500oC.

In the present study, a friction welding process was adopted to join dissimilar alloys of Ti-Al-4V to Nitinol. The effect of friction welding on the evolution of welded macro and microstructures and their hardnesses and tensile properties were studied and discussed in detail. The macrostructure of Ti-6Al-4V and Nitinol dissimilar joints revealed flash formation on the Ti-6Al-4V side due to a reduction in flow stress at high temperatures during friction welding. The optical microstructures revealed fine grains near the Ti-6Al-4V interface due to dynamic recrystallization and strain hardening effects. In contrast, the area nearer to the nitinol interface did not show any grain refinement. This study reveals that the formation of an intermetallic compound (Ti2Ni) at the weld interface resulted in poor ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and elongation values. All tensile specimens failed at the weld interface due to the formation of intermetallic compounds.

A temperature rising control system and temperature maintaining control system were designed in according to time-variable and hysteretic nature of temperature change and limitation when traditional PID control deals with nonlinear systems. A new type of intelligent fuzzy controller combination of traditional PID control and fuzzy control was designed and applied in temperature maintaining control system. The simulation results show that the holding phase at elevated temperatures and temperature, the temperature curve has a high steady-state accuracy and dynamic performance in the period of temperature rising and maintaining, and the system and controller cause a better result.

Predictions as to 105 h creep rupture strength of grade 91 steel have been made recently. The predicted values are examined with long-term creep rupture data of the steel. Three creep rupture databases were used in the predictions: data of tube products of grade 91 steel reported in National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS) Creep Data Sheet (NIMS T91 database), data of T91 steel collected in Japan, and data of grade 91 steel collected by an American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) code committee. Short-term creep rupture data points were discarded by the following criteria for minimizing overestimation of the strength: selecting long-term data points with low activation energy (multiregion analysis), selecting data points crept at stresses lower than a half of proof stress (σ0.2/2 criterion), and selecting data points longer than 1000 h (cutoff time of 1000 h). In the case of NIMS T91 database, a time–temperature parameter (TTP) analysis of a dataset selected by multiregion analysis can properly describe the long-term data points and gives the creep rupture strength of 68 MPa at 600 °C. However, TTP analyses of datasets selected by σ0.2/2 criterion and cutoff time of 1000 h from the same database overestimate the data points and predict the strength over 80 MPa. Datasets selected by the same criterion from the three databases provide similar values of the strength. The different criteria for data selection have more substantial effects on predicted values of the strength of the steel than difference of the databases.

Creep deformation is one of the life time limiting reasons for gas turbine parts that are subjected to stresses at elevated temperatures. In this study, creep rupture behavior of uncoated and platinum-aluminide coated Rene?80 has been determined at 760?C/657 MPa, 871?C/343 MPa and 982?C/190 Mpa in air. For this purpose, an initial layer of platinum with a thickness of 6?m was applied on the creep specimens. Subsequently, the aluminizing were formed in the conventional pack cementation method via the Low Temperature-High Activity (LTHA) and High Temperature-Low Activity (HTLA) processes. Results of creep-rupture tests showed a decrease in resistance to creep rupture of coated specimen, compared to the uncoated ones. The reductions in rupture lives in LTHA and HTLA methods at 760?C/657 MPa, 871?C/343 MPa and 982?C/190 MPa were almost (26% and 41.8%), (27.6% and 38.5%) and (22.4% and 40.3%), respectively as compared to the uncoated ones. However, the HTLA aluminizing method showed an intense reduction in creep life. Results of fractographic studies on coated and uncoated specimens indicated a combination of ductile and brittle failure mechanisms for all samples. Although, the base failure mode in substrate was grain boundary voids, cracks initiated from coating at 760?C/657MPa and 871?C/343. No cracking in the coating was observed at 982?C/190MPa.
