The effect of elevated temperatures on the wear of medium-chromium steel in carbon dioxide
type: CreativeWork
description: Unidirectional and reciprocating sliding experiments were carried out at elevated temperatures on a 9% chromium steel in atmospheres of air and carbon dioxide with the aim of assessing running-in wear. It was hoped that results obtained might aid the prediction of lifetimes of components subject to vibration in nuclear power stations. High speed unidirectional sliding experiments were carried out at room temperature in order to characterise the general wear behaviour of the steel. Slow speed unidirectional sliding tests were run in both atmospheres so that the effect of reduced oxygen partial pressures could be studied...
