Research on the Dependence between the Fatigue Life of X20CrMoV12.1 and P91 Steels under the Conditions of the Interactions of Thermo-Mechanical and Isothermal Low-Cycle Fatigue

Abstract

The paper presents the correlation between fatigue life determined under the conditions of low-cycle fatigue (LCF) and thermo-mechanical fatigue (TMF). Fatigue life values computed using own parameter P and results obtained based on the author’s own research and literature from the publications have been shown. The tests LCF and TMF have been performed for steels used for devices operated in the power engineering industry under the conditions of variable mechanical and thermal interactions X20CrMoV12.1 and P91.
