Mod.9Cr-1Mo 강 구조의 크리프-피로 균열 거동 평가법 개발

Abstract

In this study, an assessment method on creep-fatigue crack initiation and crack growth for a Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel (ASME Grade 91) structure has been developed with an extension of the French RCC-MR A16 procedure. The current A16 guide provides defect assessment procedure for a creep-fatigue crack initiation and crack growth for an austenitic stainless steel, but no guideline is available yet for a Mod.9Cr-1Mo steel which is now widely being adopted for structural materials of future nuclear reactor system as well as ultra super critical (USC) thermal plant. In the present study an assessment method on creep-fatigue crack initiation and crack growth is provided for the FMS (Ferritic-Martensitic Steel) and assessment on the creep-fatigue crack behavior for a structure has been carried out. The assessment results were compared with the observed images from a structural test.

본 연구에서는 프랑스의 RCC-MR A16 절차에 기초하여 Mod.9Cr-1Mo 강(ASME Grade 91) 구조의 크리프-피로 균열 개시 및 성장 평가법을 확장 개발하였다. 현재의 A16 지침은 오스테나이트 스테인리스강에 대해서만 크리프-피로 균열 개시 및 성장 평가법을 제시하고 있지만, 현재 초초임계(USC) 화력발전소는 물론 미래형 원자로 시스템의 구조재료로서 폭넓게 채택되고 있는 Mod.9Cr-1Mo 강에 대한 지침은 제시하지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 FMS(페리틱-마르텐사이트강)에 대한 크리프-피로 균열 개시 및 성장 평가법을 제시하고 있고, 구조물에 대한 크리프-피로 균열 거동 평가를 수행하였다. 평가결과는 구조시험을 수행한 결과 얻은 관찰 이미지와 비교하였다.
