摘要

The use of X-ray residual stress determination as a technique for evaluating the damage incurred by nickel-based, Cr2O3-forming superalloy materials under various service conditions (isothermal heating, thermal cycling, applied stress, stressed and cycled) was investigated. Large and small compressive residual stresses were observed for the oxides and the near surface substrates, respectively. It was expected that the applied stresses and thermal cycling would cause an enhanced degree of oxidation damage that would translate into appreciable differences in residual stress values. Differences in the magnitude of residual stress values were not appreciable condition-to-condition, however. An increase in the severity of the oxidizing conditions in the form of longer oxidation times, higher oxidizing temperatures, and a much greater frequency of thermal cycling is suggested for future studies.
