Ok, let's say it's not creep.
You can see looking at the attached pictures the deformed plates.
So is it only thermal distortion, caused by the repetitive thermal cycle?
To properly get to the point i should give you the characteristics of the thermal cycle:
heating: from 20°C to 1100°C...
Ok, for the purpose is more than enough, afterall the plates are only used as dead-weight.
I'll try heating and applying some force.
About the specific performances, are there better alternative than a AISI316, considering that the working temp. is about 1050°C?
Thanks a lot.
Hello guys,
we use some Aisi 316L steel plates (50mm thk) as load on some components that have to be brazed.
After many cylces the plates suffer of creep deformation.
Is it possible to undo this deformation? Maybe with a solubilization applying some load on the deformed plates?
Thanks.
