To reduce harmful gas emission and improve the operational efficiency, advanced ultra-supercritical power plants put forward higher requirements on the high temperature mechanical properties of applied materials. In this paper, the tensile behavior and deformation mechanisms of MarBN steel are discussed at different strain rates (5 × 10−3 s−1, 5 × 10−4 s−1, and 5 × 10−5 s−1) under room temperature and 630 °C. The results show that the tensile behavior of the alloy is dependent on temperature and strain rate, which derived from the balance between the average dislocation velocity and dislocation density. Furthermore, observed dynamic recrystallized grains under severe deformation reveal the existence of dynamic recovery at 630 °C, which increases the elongation compared to room temperature. Finally, three typical constitutive equations are used to quantitatively describe the tensile deformation behavior of MarBN steel under different strain rates and temperatures. Meanwhile, the constitutive model of flow stress for MarBN steel is developed based on the hyperbolic sine law.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
