摘要: Abstract The effect of hydrogen on short crack propagation under cyclic loading in SA508 Grade 3 Class I low alloy steel is investigated. This used manufacturing pressure vessel installed Indian nuclear power plants. During operation these vessels are subjected to continuous supply pressurized hot water at 600 K and hence susceptible embrittlement. In past, research has been conducted the embrittlement long fatigue this material but, mechanistic understanding correlation with microstructural features can be understood well by studying propagation. Short cracks order 10 µm 1 mm unlike strongly interact such as grain/phase boundaries. studied artificial charging through electrochemical process. single edge notch tension (SENT) specimens an initial 85 90 study charged samples initiated from lower number cycles compared uncharged notched for same value applied stress range (Δσ). After initiation, propagated higher rate samples. dissimilarity behavior due difference interaction a
