Abstract

The material of some parts of energetic machines may be exposed to increased temperatures. Creep and its combination with fatigue is one aspect of material degradation. This aspect is included in diagnostic system DIALIFE. The system is designed for two levels of evaluation of a residual lifetime. The first OFF-LINE level is determined for use by experts from authorised companies. The second ON-LINE level is determined for the continuous evaluation of the material damage. Results of this diagnostic system can be utilised for the controlled ageing and lifetime extension of power plant components.
