Abstract

The danger of flakes initiated by hydrogen dissolved in steel may arise in the production of forgings from alloyed steels. Hydrogen penetrates steel in melting, heat treatment, welding, galvanizing, and pickling and during operation in aggressive media, which reduces the ductility and increases the probability of brittle failure. It is of interest from the standpoint of practice and theory to investigate the possibility of evaluating the amount of hydrogen dissolved in steel and capable of diffusion and to analyze the redistribution mid penetration of hydrogen into pores and collectors. In this case atomic hydrogen recombines and transforms into molecular hydrogen, which does not cause flakes or hydrogen embrittlement. This problem is considered in the present work.
