Abstract NIROSTA 4305 is an austenitic alloy with a high sulfur content. The alloy is typically used for machined parts. As with other austenitic steels, it is necessary to machine with good-quality high-speed steel or tungsten carbide tools. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, elasticity, and tensile properties. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as forming, heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SS-854. Producer or source: ThyssenKrupp Nirosta GmbH.

Abstract Allegheny Stainless Type 205 is a chromium-manganese nitrogen austenitic high strength stainless steel that maintains its low magnetic permeability even after large amounts of cold working. Annealed Type 205 has higher mechanical properties than any of the conventional austenitic steels-and for any given strength level, the ductility of Type 205 is comparable to that of Type 301. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, hardness, elasticity, and tensile properties as well as fatigue. It also includes information on corrosion resistance as well as heat treating, machining, and joining. Filing Code: SS-640. Producer or source: Allegheny Ludlum Corporation. Originally published March 1996, revised October 1997.

The CALPHAD method has been employed to compose thermodynamic description of the Fe–Cr–Mn–Ni–Si–C–N system. Using an algorithm based on finding a global minimum of Gibbs energy, the calculations of system phase composition were performed in the temperature range from 1750°C to hardening and in the range of compositions corresponding to 04Kh20N6G11M2AFB steel. Calculations showed that at temperatures above liquidus line, Cr and Mn increase nitrogen solubility in the melt, while Ni and Si reduce it. With an increase in the content of Cr, Mn, Ni, and Si in steel in the studied composition range, both liquidus and solidus temperature decrease. The degree of influence on these temperatures of Cr, Mn, Ni and Si within the steel grade is different and ranges from ~3 to ~14°C. Calculations taking into account the possibility of nitrogen transfer between steel and the atmosphere of air showed that the amount of fixed nitrogen in the alloy under study varies, depending on the composition of the steel and temperature, from ~0.3 to ~0.6 wt%. As the temperature decreases from liquidus to solidus, the amount of fixed nitrogen increases, with the exception of those steel compositions when ferrite and not austenite is released from the liquid phase.

A substantial amount of research effort has been applied to the field of environmentally assisted fatigue (EAF) due to the requirement to account for the EAF behaviour of metals for existing and new build nuclear power plants. We present the results of the European project INcreasing Safety in NPPs by Covering Gaps in Environmental Fatigue Assessment (INCEFA-PLUS), during which the sensitivities of strain range, environment, surface roughness, mean strain and hold times, as well as their interactions on the fatigue life of austenitic steels has been characterized. The project included a test campaign, during which more than 250 fatigue tests were performed. The tests did not reveal a significant effect of mean strain or hold time on fatigue life. An empirical model describing the fatigue life as a function of strain rate, environment and surface roughness is developed. There is evidence for statistically significant interaction effects between surface roughness and the environment, as well as between surface roughness and strain range. However, their impact on fatigue life is so small that they are not practically relevant and can in most cases be neglected. Reducing the environmental impact on fatigue life by modifying the temperature or strain rate leads to an increase of the fatigue life in agreement with predictions based on NUREG/CR-6909. A limited sub-programme on the sensitivity of hold times at elevated temperature at zero force conditions and at elevated temperature did not show the beneficial effect on fatigue life found in another study.

AbstractThe Larson–Miller parameter (LMP) offers an efficient and fast scheme to estimate the creep rupture life of alloy materials for high-temperature applications; however, poor generalizability and dependence on the constant C often result in sub-optimal performance. In this work, we show that the direct rupture life parameterization without intermediate LMP parameterization, using a gradient boosting algorithm, can be used to train ML models for very accurate prediction of rupture life in a variety of alloys (Pearson correlation coefficient >0.9 for 9–12% Cr and >0.8 for austenitic stainless steels). In addition, the Shapley value was used to quantify feature importance, making the model interpretable by identifying the effect of various features on the model performance. Finally, a variational autoencoder-based generative model was built by conditioning on the experimental dataset to sample hypothetical synthetic candidate alloys from the learnt joint distribution not existing in both 9–12% Cr ferritic–martensitic alloys and austenitic stainless steel datasets.
