Abstract

This paper describes the on-going and planned activities of the U. S. Pressure Vessel Research Committee (PVRC) in support of elevated temperature design technology. On-going projects in the PVRC Subcommittee on Elevated Temperature Design are first highlighted. These include work on the “Recommended Practices in Elevated Temperature Design,” the “Biaxial Creep-Fatigue” investigation, “Damage Assessment with Application to Life Extension,” “Elevated Temperature Behavior of Bolted Flange Connections,” as well as “Dissimilar Metal Joint” projects. The long range problems in elevated temperature technology, identified by the PVRC, are then listed and briefly discussed.
