Overview

The papers presented in High Temperature Structural Design, ESIS Publication 12, are the reviewed and revised versions of the lectures presented at the eponymous Venice Conference. This conference was deliberately tailored to include all industrial areas where high temperature structural integrity problems are encountered, and an effort was made to cover several different aspects of structural design, including material modelling and experience feedback, and to achieve a cross-fertilization of ideas between different application areas. The twenty two papers are grouped together under four headings, namely Design Practice, Stress and Strain Analysis Methods, damage Evaluation, and, finally, In-Service Experience. Representing the current state-of-the-art in high temperature structural design, this volume can be wholeheartedly recommended, not only to engineering designers, but also to physicists and to materials scientists concerned with the integrity of structures at high temperatures in all areas of industry.

Table of Contents

Part 1 Design practice: current design practice for high temperature components in fossil power plants and chemical plants in Germany; designing steam turbines for transient thermal loading; design of gas turbine components; on-going developments in design methods and criteria for the LMFBR; design and construction rules for components of helium cooled high temperature reactors (HTR); design and evaluation of materials for space reactors; the R5 procedures - assessment of structural integrity at high temperatures. Part 2 Stress and strain analysis methods: structural analysis and available knowledge; rigorous inelastic analysis methods; simplified methods for the assessment of creep and plasticity effects in cyclic loading at high temperature; modelling of viscoplasticity and structural analysis of diesel cylinder heads; structural design of advanced aeroengine turbine blades. Part 3 Damage evaluation: creep-fatigue-oxidation interactions in materials for high temperature components; damage assessment of components experiencing thermal transients; creep continuum damage mechanics - a unifying theme in high temperature design; materials data requirements, creep damage mechanisms, and protective models; assessment procedure for defects in the creep range. Part 4 In-service experience: life of welds at high temperatures; the behaviour of welds in EDF fossil-fired power plants through typical examples in boilers; experience feedback on damage evaluation and residual life prediction on chemical and petrochemical plants; in service reliability assessment of high-temperature headers in fossil power plants; expert systems for creep damage assessment and header management.
