Abstract

A severe thermal stress occurs during start up/shutdown transients in thick walled components of high temperature power plants. Thus, a precise consideration of this issue is very important. Many researchers have studied low-cycle fatigue at high temperatures and small box-type electrical resistance furnaces have been developed for small-sized fatigue specimens. However, these small-scale electrical resistance furnaces need precise temperature calibrations because temperature control is difficult in a small space. Thus, a method for the temperature calibration of a box-type electrical resistance furnace is investigated and calibration procedures are proposed in this study.
