Advanced UltraSupercritical (A-USC) Steam fossil power plants will operate at steam temperatures up to 760°C, which will require the use of Ni-based superalloys for steam boiler/superheater and turbine systems. In 2008, the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and the National Engineering Technology Laboratory/Albany (NETL/Albany) collaborated to make and test castings of Ni-based superalloys, which were previously only commercially available in wrought form. These cast Ni-based based alloys are envisioned for the steam turbine casing, but they may also be applicable to other large components that connect the steam supply to the steam turbine. ORNL and NETL/Albany have produced small vacuum castings of HR 282, Nimonic 105, Inconel 740, and alloy 263, which are precipitation-hardened Ni-based superalloys, as well as solid-solution superalloys such as alloys 625, 617 and 230. The initial alloy screening included tensile and creep-testing at 800°C to determine which alloys are best suited for the steam turbine casing application at 760°C. HR 282 has the best combination of high-temperature strength and ductility, making it a good candidate for the cast-casing application. Cast and wrought versions of HR 282 have similar creep-rupture strength, based on the limited data available to-date. Detailed comparisons to the other alloys and microstructures are included in this paper.
