Aging Phenomena

Conventional tensile test methods are used for service exposed high temperature boiler tubes to evaluate the deterioration in mechanical properties such as tensile strength, yield strength and percentage elongation. The mechanical properties are required to be evaluated periodically as the boiler components undergo material degradation due to aging phenomena. The aging phenomena occurs due to continuous exposure of tubes to high temperature & pressure steam prevailing inside the tubes and high temperature exposure to corrosive combustible gases from the external surfaces within the boiler.A recent developed new technique called small punch testing has been used to evaluate the tensile properties of SA 213T22 grade steel predominantly exists in super-heater and re-heater sections of boiler. The small punch tests have been carried out on the miniature disk shaped specimens of diameter of 8.0 mm and 0.5 mm thickness extracted from both the new and service exposed tubes. Conventional uniaxial tensile tests on standard specimens from the same tube material have also been performed for comparison. The service exposed tubes showed considerable loss in mechanical properties in both the conventional and small punch test results. Correlations of tensile properties have been obtained based on the comparative analysis of both small punch and uniaxial tensile test results. Further, the study showed that an appropriate empirical relation could be generated for new and service exposed materials between both the techniques. Conventional test methods require large quantity of material removal for test samples from in-service components whereas small punch test method needs only a miniature sample extraction. This small punch test technique could also be extended to evaluate the thicker section boiler components such as pipelines and headers in the boiler as a part of remaining life assessment study. Also this technique could be a useful tool to any metallic component where large quantity of sample removal may be difficult or may not be feasible.

Shear Punch

A shear punch test is a very useful small specimen test method for evaluating the mechanical properties of in-service components, in view of the requirements of small size sample material. Typically disks of nominal size 10 mm diameter, having a thickness of 0.5 mm or less is used to extract the tensile properties through measurement of load-displacement responses. This paper presents the results of shear punch tests on pressure vessel steels and its correlation with yield stress and ultimate tensile stress obtained using ASTM standard specimens. Small punch test is similar to shear punch test, except that the indenter is spherical in shape, and as a consequence the material under the punch will be subjected to biaxial state of stress. The tensile response of materials derived by small punch test is correlated with standard tensile tests.
