Abstract
- Stainless steels are well known by their corrosion resistance. The austenitic types, in particular, are also applied as structural components in engineering systems operating at high temperatures such as nuclear reactors, petrochemical furnaces and turbines. For these applications operational temperatures may go up to 800ºC. Under constant load applications the main mechanism of failure, which would limit the material's life, is creep. In the present work creep parameters were evaluated in the high temperature interval of 600 to 800ºC for an AISI 316 austenitic stainless steel. Dislocation substructures were observed by transmission electron microscopy in creep ruptured specimens. Two distinct mechanisms of dynamic strain aging and dynamic recovery associated with different values for the power law exponent n and the Arrhenius activation energy Q for creep were verified below and above 700ºC, respectively.
