Abstract

Using a round bar circular notched specimen for Cr-Mo-V steel and the proposed equation predicting crack length on the basis of electric potential drop method, the creep crack growth tests were previously conducted to investigate the effect of multi-axial stress on creep crack growth rate(CCGR). In this paper, more detailed experiments and analyses on the creep crack growth were conducted and the Q* parameter which characterizes CCGR for this circular notched specimen was derived. Furthermore, using the Q* parameter, the prediction law of creep crack growth life was also derived.
