不同退火温度对镍基合金焊接接头的疲劳性能影响

Effect of different annealing temperatures on fatigue properties of welded joints of nickel-based alloys

  • 摘要: 焊接过程中产生的残余拉应力会显著降低接头的疲劳寿命,随着退火温度升高,残余应力逐渐松弛,位错重组和晶界滑移加剧,残余应力大幅降低,从而减少疲劳裂纹萌生倾向。但过高的退火温度会导致晶粒异常长大,反而降低疲劳强度。因此,研究不同退火温度对镍基合金焊接接头疲劳性能的影响。针对厚度为6mm的N06200镍基合金板材,设定650℃(低温)、800℃(中温)、950℃(高温)三个梯度退火温度,制备焊接接头试样,分别对不同退火温度试样的基础性能与疲劳性能进行测试。试验结果表明,在基础性能层面,低温退火的N06200-650试样显微硬度较低,而中温退火的N06200-800试样与高温退火N06200-950试样则均达到较高硬度。疲劳测试发现,950℃高温退火试样的疲劳寿命较其他两组明显更长,在疲劳裂纹扩展特性上,当应力强度因子范围在24MPa·m1/2至32MPa·m1/2变动时,N06200-650试样、N06200-800试样疲劳裂纹扩展速率相对较高,而N06200-950试样裂纹扩展速率最慢,仅从5×10-6mm/cycle增长至1×10-4mm/cycle。同时,950℃高温退火可有效优化镍基合金焊接接头内部组织结构,提升其疲劳性能。为此,可选用950℃作为镍基合金焊接接头退火温度,以增强焊接结构在服役过程中的可靠性与安全性,降低镍基合金焊接接头的疲劳失效风险。

     

    Abstract: The residual tensile stress generated during the welding process can significantly reduce the fatigue life of the joint. As the annealing temperature increases, the residual stress gradually relaxes, dislocation recombination and grain boundary slip intensify, and the residual stress decreases significantly, thereby reducing the tendency for fatigue crack initiation. However, excessively high annealing temperatures can lead to abnormal grain growth, which in turn reduces fatigue strength. Therefore, the influence of different annealing temperatures on the fatigue performance of nickel based alloy welded joints is studied. For N06200 nickel based alloy sheet with a thickness of 6mm, three gradient annealing temperatures of 650℃ (low temperature), 800℃ (medium temperature), and 950℃ (high temperature) were set to prepare welded joint specimens, and the basic and fatigue properties of the specimens at different annealing temperatures were tested. The experimental results show that at the basic performance level, the microhardness of the N06200-650 sample annealed at low temperature is lower, while the N06200-800 sample annealed at medium temperature and the N06200-950 sample annealed at high temperature both achieve higher hardness. Fatigue testing found that the fatigue life of the 950℃ high-temperature annealed samples was significantly longer than the other two groups. In terms of fatigue crack propagation characteristics, when the stress intensity factor ranged from 24MPa·m1/2 to 32MPa·m1/2, the N06200-650 and N06200-800 samples had relatively high fatigue crack propagation rates, while the N06200-950 sample had the slowest crack propagation rate, only increasing from 5×10-6mm/cycle to 1×10-4mm/cycle. Meanwhile, annealing at 950℃ can effectively optimize the internal microstructure of nickel based alloy welded joints and enhance their fatigue performance. For this purpose, 950℃ can be selected as the annealing temperature for nickel based alloy welded joints to enhance the reliability and safety of the welded structure during service, and reduce the risk of fatigue failure of nickel based alloy welded joints.
