Abstract

Three test methods have been developed to evaluate the properties of contacting surfaces at high temperature under static and dynamic loading conditions. The performance of these new tests has been evaluated using a range of industrially relevant materials and conditions. The results of these tests have shown that it is possible to have two oxide fronts grow into each other to form one monolithic oxide scale. Dynamic tests have shown that the addition of steam in a tribological environment clearly influences the friction between materials. Pre-ageing also influences the friction, with the majority of materials experiencing an increase in friction coefficient.
