Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of metal material performance evaluation, and in particular to a metal material performance evaluation method and system based on creep-fatigue interaction. Background Art

[0002] Energy equipment will generate creep-fatigue loads due to start-stop and power adjustment during operation. Different from single creep / fatigue loads, under creep-fatigue interaction, structural parts will fail faster, threatening the stable operation of energy unit structural parts. The calculation of creep-fatigue crack growth rate is of vital importance in the structural integrity assessment of high-temperature components of modern energy equipment.

[0003] The traditional method of calculating the creep-fatigue crack growth rate requires a large number of creep-fatigue crack growth tests to determine the corresponding material parameters. At the same time, due to the short crack effect, traditional fracture mechanics parameters cannot be used to calculate the creep-fatigue short crack growth rate. A large number of studies have shown that the short crack growth stage accounts for more than 70% of the material crack growth life. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a metal material performance evaluation technology based on creep-fatigue interaction, which can simply and efficiently evaluate the creep-fatigue performance of metal materials by calculating the short cracks of metal materials under creep-fatigue interaction.

[0070] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a method for calculating short cracks under creep-fatigue interaction of metal materials, including: a method for calculating the creep-fatigue short crack growth rate based on creep performance data of a uniaxial creep test and elastic-plastic performance data of a uniaxial tensile test.

[0071] In order to better illustrate the calculation method of short cracks under creep-fatigue interaction of metal materials in the present invention, a single-side notch specimen will be used for verification. The material used for verification is 316H heat-resistant steel, and uniaxial creep, uniaxial tension, and creep-fatigue short crack growth tests are carried out at 550°C. The load control method is used in the predicted creep-fatigue short crack growth rate test, which is maintained at the peak load and the waveform is a trapezoidal wave.

Further, the correction parameter r related to the creep stress exponent m can be obtained. m and ψ cr The values ​​of are 1.01 and 0.3673 respectively.

[0087] In order to verify the calculation method for short cracks in metal materials under creep-fatigue interaction proposed in this invention, the creep-fatigue short crack growth rate under 550°C calculated by this method is as follows: Figure 4As shown. For comparison, the traditional method based on experimental data to calculate the creep-fatigue short crack growth rate is shown in Figure 5 It can be seen that the calculation method for short cracks under creep-fatigue interaction of metal materials proposed in the present invention has good prediction results for creep-fatigue short crack growth rate under different holding times, which solves the limitations of traditional methods that cannot accurately describe short crack growth behavior and the prediction results have a correlation with the holding time.
