The results show that the creep property of FGHAZ is much inferior to that of the base metal, which exhibits the much higher steady creep rate and shorter time to creep fracture. The power law equation can describe the steady creep rate dependence on applied stress, indicating that the stress exponent n of FGHAZ is distinguished between two regions with n=15.1 at high stresses (more than 100 MPa) and n=8.64 at lower stresses. Based on Monkman-Grant equation, the relationship between the secondary creep rate and time to rupture is obtained to evaluate the creep life of FGHAZ with the applied stress above 100 MPa.展开更多

The experimental results show when the heat input changed from 1.65 kJ/cm to 5.93 kJ/cm, the width of its HAZ ranged from 0.6 mm to 2.1 mm.The average grain size grew up from 2~5 μm of base metal to 20~70 μm and found no obvious soften phenomenon in overheated zone. The width of normalized zone was generally wide as 2/3 as that of the whole HAZ, and the grain size in this zone is smaller than that in base metal. Under the circumstance of equal heat input, the HAZ width of UNGW is narrower than that of the laser welding.展开更多

The principle of grain growth kinetics was used to predict the grain size in the heat-affected zone under different welding parameters. The simulation results show that the growing tendency of HAZ grain could be controlled by adjusting the welding parameters, but the growth of HAZ grain could not be eliminated at all. The HAZ grain size became small with increasing of the cooling rate and added with increasing of welding current, arc voltage and welding speed.展开更多
