Abstract

Inconel 690 alloy is used in nuclear power plant steam generator tubes. Fretting fatigue experiments were performed on Inconel 690 specimens at room temperature and at the nuclear power plant operating temperature of 320 °C. By comparing the fretting fatigue test data at room temperature and 320 °C, this study analyzed the change in characteristics related to the fatigue limit at 10 7 cycles. In addition, this study attempted to measure changes in the friction force for repetitive cycles in fretting fatigue tests, and analyzed the mechanism of fretting fatigue by observing the fracture surfaces and performing spectrum analysis.
