A low alloy-steel(2.25Cr-1.0Mo) has been widely used for boiler piping, header and tubes in high temperature and pressure conditions of the thermal power plant. It is common knowledge that the repair welding is permitted two or three times by customary practice rule, but there is no regulation to limit the number of repair welding base on the study heat-affected zone(HAZ), which is the weakest zone when repair welding is under taken, by experiments about the metallographic degradation and mechanical properties. Therefore, this study aims to verify the reliability of 5 times repair welding through conducting the experimental observation in the mechanical and the metallographic change on HAZ varying repair welding times. In results of the experiments, it is concluded that the reliability was kept in HAZ even up to the fifth repairs.

Fracture behavior of ex-serviced 1Cr-0.5Mo steel was measured at room($24^{\circ}C$) and elevated($538^{\circ}C$) temperature and compared with that measured with virgin 1Cr-0.5Mo steel. Compact C(T) specimens were machined from the base and welded test materials. In case of the C(T) specimens of the weld, fatigue precrack was introduced along the fusion line so that following crack growth should occurs along the region of heat affected zone. It was observed that the J-R curve of the serviced material was significantly lower than that of the virgin material at room temperature. Brittle fracture was observed in the serviced material. On the other hand, at elevated temperature no noticeable difference was found between the J-R curves of the virgin and the serviced material. The measured J-R curves were also compared with those of the 1.25Cr-0.5Mo steel obtained from the other literatures. Optical microscopy and SEM examination of the serviced material reveal the carbide in/along the grain boundary which shows material degradation due to long-term usage. An example of application of the measured J-R curves is shown.

High pressure turbine blades are one of the key components in fossil power plants operated at high temperature. The blade is usually made of 12Cr steel and its operating temperature is above $500^{\circ}C$. Long term service at this temperature causes material degradation accompanied by changes in microstructures and mechanical properties such as strength and toughness. Quantitative assessment of reduction of strength and toughness due to high temperature material degradation is required for residual life assessment of the blade components. Nondestructive technique is preferred. So far most of the research of this kind was conducted with low alloy steels such as carbon steel, 1.25Cr0.5Mo steel or 2.25Cr1Mo steel. High alloy steel was not investigated. In this study one of the high Cr steel, 12Cr steel, was selected for high temperature material degradation. Electrochemical polarization method was employed to measure degradation. Strength reduction of the 12Cr steel was represented by hardness and toughness reduction was represented by change of transition temperature, FATT. Empirical relationships between the electrochemical polarization parameter and significance of material degradation were established. These relationship can be used for assessing the strength and toughness on the aged high pressure blade components indirectly by using the electrochemical method.

누출시험 장치를 이용하여 미량 물 누출 실험을 수행하였다. 2.25Cr-1Mo 시편의 누출경로는 나트륨-물 반응 생성물에 의해 plugging되는 경우가 발생하였으나, 대부분 re-open상태를 나타내었다. 또한 누출 경로가 완전 re-open된 후 나트륨 부위에서 시편의 self-wastage pattern은 온도에 영향을 받지 않음을 알 수 있었으며, 누출경로가 re-open 되면서 나타나는 defected 크기는 대략 5 mm 이내임을 알 수 있었다. 누출 경로가 완전 re-open 되는데 걸리는 시간은나트륨 온도가 높을수록 짧게 나타났으며, 평균적으로 $450^{\circ}C$에서 143분, $475^{\circ}C$의 경우 40.7분, $510^{\circ}C$의 경우 34.7분을 나타내었다.

최근 기술 발달에 따른 레이저 용접장비의 고출력화로 후판 용접이 가능해짐에 따라 레이저 용접의 산업적용이 확대되어지고 있다. 레이저 용접은 또 다른 고밀도 고에너지 용접법인 전자빔 용접과는 달리 대기 중 작업이 가능하며, 정밀한 용접과 더불어 재질열화를 최소화 할수 있는 등의 장점을 가지고 있다. (중략)

In this report, the creep properties and creep life estimation by Larson-Miller Parameter(LMP) Method for 2.25Cr1Mo steel to be used as power plant tubes or other components were presented at the high temperatures of 500, 550, and $600^{\circ}C$. It was confirmed experimentally and quantitatively that a creep life estimation equation at such various high temperatures was well derived by LMP and could be used very effectively within the creep life of 10$^3$ hours, but very unreliable and even dangerous for design in a long term of creep life such as 10$^4$ or $10^5$ hours.

Both creep deformation and creep crack growth experiments have been conducted on 2.25Cr-1Mo steel weldment in order to provided an information on residual life prediction of structural component weldment containing a crack. The stress exponent of creep deformation equation for the base metal and weldment at 823k were found to be 10.2 and 7.3, respectively. These two values could be assumed that dislocation climb processes are controlling the creep deformation of both materials. The creep rate of the weldment was very low, compared with that of base metal under the same applied stress. Whereas the creep crack growth rate of the weldment was almost twice higher than that of base metal under the fixed value of $C^*$. This may indicate that the weldment is stronger than the base metal in view of creep deformation and is brittle during creep crack growth due to the intrinsic microstructure of banite and relatively higher and Mn contents.

1.0Cr-1.0Mo-0.25V강 용접부의 크립 파단 시험시 파단 발생 원인에 관한 연구가 시행되었다. 파괴는 Intercritical Heat Affected Zone에서 발생하였으며 파단면에서 구상의조대한 M6C탄화물이 발견되었다. 모재는 molybdenum 주성분의 M2C, vanadium 주성분의 M4C3 및 chromium 주성분의 M23C6와 M7C3 탄화물이 존재하였다. 모의 실험 결과 준안정 상태인 M2C 탄화물은 85$0^{\circ}C$, 10oh에서 안정한 M6C탄화물로 변태하였다. M6C 탄화물은 주변의 molybdenum 농도를 떨어뜨려 강도의 저하를 가져오며 크립 기공의 발생 원인을 제공하였다.

The size of hydrogen molecule is not so small as to invade into the lattice of material, and therefore, hydrogen invades into the material as atom. Hydrogen movement is done by diffusion or dislocation movement in the near crack tip or plastic deformation. Hydrogen appeared to have many effects on the mechanical properties of the Cr-Mo steel alloys. The materials for this study are 1.25Cr-0.5Mo and 2.25Cr-1Mo steels used at high temperature and pressure. The hydrogen amount obtained by theoretical calculation was almost same with the result solved by finite element analysis. The distribution of hydrogen concentration and average concentration was calculated for a flat specimen. Also, finite element analysis was employed to simulate the redistribution of hydrogen due to stress gradient. The calculation of hydrogen concentration diffused into the material by finite element method will provide the basis for the prediction of delayed fracture of notched specimen. The distribution of hydrogen concentration invaded into the smooth and notched specimen was obtained by finite element analysis. The hydrogen amount is much in smooth specimen and tends to concentrate in the vicinity of surface. Hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility of notched specimen after hydrogen charging is more remarkable than that of smooth specimen.

Power plant boiler is one of the most important utilities providing steam to turbine in thermal power plant. It is composed of thousands of boiler tubes for high efficient heat transfer. Boiler tube material is used in such high temperature and pressure as $540^{\circ}C$, $170kg/mm^2$. The boiler tube material is needed to resist corrosion damage, creep damage and fatigue damage. 2.25%Cr-1Mo steel is used for conventional boiler tubes. In these days steam temperature and pressure of the power plant became higher for high plant efficiency. So, the material property of boiler tube must be upgraded to meet the plant property. Several boiler tube material was developed to meet such condition. X20CrMoV12.1 steel is also developed in early 1980's and used for superheater and reheater tubes in supercritical boilers. The material has martensitic structure, which is difficult to evaluate the material degradation. Boiler tube material at severe condition was tested to evaluate long term and short term degradation and creep. Through long term and high temperature degradation test, lath structure was decreased and recrystallization has been proceeded by sub-crystal. And in this research the effect of temperature and stress on boiler tube characteristic,for example, deformation by creep was changed rapidly at relatively high temperature and stress because creep was affected easily by temperature and stress.
