Abstract
In this paper, the fatigue crack growth rate of 15CrMo steel, a typical gas cylinder material, is studied under the condition of simulating the actual working condition of gas cylinder. The low-frequency corrosion fatigue tests with stress ratio of 0.1 and 0.5 are carried out in air and different concentrations of wet hydrogen sulfide environment. The relationships between da/dN and ΔK are expressed by Paris equation. The results show that the crack growth rate in hydrogen sulfide environment with concentration of 200 ppm is 27 times higher that in air. The addition of corrosion environment greatly fasts the crack growth rate of 15CrMo steel. With the increase of H2S concentration, the crack growth rate increases exponentially. With the increase of stress ratio, the average stress increases, the crack closure effect decreases, the crack tip is fully opened, and the contact area with corrosion medium increases, which results in the increase of crack growth rate.
