Abstract
Low fatigue samples were obtained from the outer edges of rotor steel (30CrlMolV) which had operated under different temperatures conditions. Based on this data, the effects of temperature on fatigue crack growth rates were investigated. This paper presents a derivation of the superposition expression of two natural logarithms governing crack growth rates and also discusses the relationship between a material’s constants and temperature. These results can provide experimental and theoretical references for fatigue life design of rotor steel in steam turbines.
