Untersuchungen der Strukturstabilität von Ni-(Fe)-Basislegierungen für Rotorwellen in Dampfturbinen mit Arbeitstemperaturen über 700 C
Abstract
dc:descriptionThere is a continuous trend to improve the efficiency of modern power plants with steam turbine require operating steam temperature from 700 to 720°C. For substantial parts like turbine rotors and discs this means increased requirements on the high temperature resistance, which can not longer be fulfilled by the presently used steel. As new materials for the components, which are thermo-mechanically loaded, only Ni-based superalloys are suitable for their fabrication, structure stability and thermo-mechanical characteristics. With view on creep and creep crack growth resistance as suitable candidates in the context a DFG research project wrought Ni-based superalloy Waspaloy and Ni-Fe-based alloy Inconel 706 were selected, which exhibited different hardening mechanisms. Waspaloy is a Gamma’-hardened material with small portion of carbides on the grain boundaries. Inconel 706 is a particle hardened alloy with a very complex microstructure, it consists of Gamma’, Gamma’’-particle, -phase und carbides. Concerning to their castability, forgeability, creep and creep crack growth and microstructural stability these candidate materials have been investigated and modelled. The knowledge about their long time stability of the microstructure, castability, forgeability and mechanical properties leads to the two new modification (WaspaloyDT750 and Inconel 706DT706). The modification of the Waspaloy to DT 750 served better castability (elimination of the Freckle formation). An improvement of the long-term stability of the microstructure was not necessary, by a changed heat treatment was reached a homogeneous, monomodale Gamma’-particle distribution. The modification of Inconel 706 to DT 706 served to stabilize the Gamma’-phase and to reduce of the Gamma’’ phase without suppressing the cellular -phase colonies on the grain boundaries. This work presents the test results for the structural long-term stability of the mentioned materials and their modifications. In this paper influences of heat treatments and thermal exposure on the microstructure and consequences for the mechanical behaviour will be discussed.
