Study on the Long-Term Performance of Super 304H Pipe in Superheater of Ultra Supercritical 1000 MW Power Unit Free

The long-term performance of superheater super 304h tube during the normal service of an ultra-supercritical 1000mw thermal power unit was tracked and analyzed, and the metallographic structure and performance of the original tube sample and tubes after 23,400h, 56,000h, 64,000 h, 70,000 h and 80,000 h service were tested. The results show that the tensile strength, yield strength and post-break elongation meet the requirements of ASME SA213 S30432 after long-term service, but the impact toughness decreases significantly. The metallographic organization is composed of the original complete austenite structure and gradually changes to the austenite + twin + second phase precipitates. With the extension of time, the number of second phases of coarseness in the crystal and the crystal boundary increases, and the degree of chain distribution increases. The precipitation phase on the grain boundary is dominated by M₂₃C₆, and there are several mx phases dominated by NbC and densely distributed copper phases in the crystal. The service environment produces a high magnetic equivalent and magnetic induction of the material, the reason is that there are strips of martensite on both sides of the grain boundary, and the number of martensite increases with the length of service.
