Abstract

The Ni-base super-heat-resistant alloy, GTD-111, is employed in gas turbines because of its high temperature strength and oxidation resistance. It is important to predict the fatigue life of this superalloy in order to improve the efficiency of gas turbines. In this study, low-cycle fatigue tests are performed as variables of total strain range and temperature. The relationship between the strain energy density and number of cycles to failure is examined in order to predict the low-cycle fatigue life of the GTD-111 superalloy. The fatigue life predicted by using the strain-energy methods is found to coincide with that obtained from the experimental data and from the Coffin-Manson method.

초내열합금인 GTD-111은 고온강도와 내산화성이 우수하여 가스터빈에서 사용되는 소재이다. 초내열합금의 피로 수명 예측은 가스터빈의 효율을 개선하기 위하여 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서의 저주기 피로시험은 실제 운전 환경과 유사하게 변형률 범위, 온도를 다양하게 설정하여 시험을 수행하였다. GTD-111의 저주기 피로수명을 예측하기 위하여 변형률 에너지 밀도와 파단 사이클과의 관계를 이용하였다. 시험결과를 토대로 변형률 에너지법과 Coffin-Manson법에 의하여 피로수명을 예측하였다.
