Abstract

The impact of a temperature excursion on the subsequent stress corrosion cracking at the normal operating temperature has been investigated for 321 stainless steel (UNS32100). Crack growth at the elevated temperature of 130 °C was contingent upon a parallel increase in chloride ion concentration but once cracking had started the crack growth was sustained at the lower temperature (40 °C) and chloride concentration (35 ppm) associated with normal plant operation.
