Study on Susceptibility and Mechanism of Reheat Cracking in Welded Joint of Type 347 Austenitic Stainless Steel
The reheat cracking susceptibility of welded joints has been evaluated by 900°C high-temperature constant load test and 750°C–900°C high-temperature slow strain rate tensile (SSRT) test on welded joints of TP347 steel, and the influencing factors and mechanism of reheat cracking in welded joints hav...

| description | The reheat cracking susceptibility of welded joints has been evaluated by 900°C high-temperature constant load test and 750°C–900°C high-temperature slow strain rate tensile (SSRT) test on welded joints of TP347 steel, and the influencing factors and mechanism of reheat cracking in welded joints have been further investigated by microcosmic characterization techniques of SEM and EDS, etc. The result shows the critical fracture stress of TP347 steel welded joints at 900°C is 24 MPa, which is much lower than 80% of the high-temperature yield strength of base material, indicating that the reheat crack of the welded joint is highly sensitive at this temperature; the average reduction of area (RoA) of welded joints obtained by 750°C–900°C SSRT test at each temperature is below 20%, which means all welded joints have a reheat cracking susceptibility in this temperature range, and the reheat cracking susceptibility increases with the rising of temperature. Based on study and analysis using microcosmic methods of optical microscope, scanning electron microscope, and energy spectrum analysis, it is found that welded joints of TP347 steel have a high reheat cracking susceptibility because the high temperature accelerates the diffusion of Cr, Nb, and impurity elements to the grain boundary, and a large quantity of carbides and low-melting-point eutectics are collected and precipitated at the grain boundary to reduce the plasticity of the grain boundary. Since there is a high welding residual stress in welded joints, cavities are formed under the action of the stress at a high temperature, and the merging of cavities causes the formation of cracks which extend along the grain boundary. |
