Investigating creep behavior of Ni–Cr–W alloy pressurized tube at 950 °C by using in-situ creep testing system

The creep behavior of Ni–Cr–W alloy at 950 °C has been investigated by a novel creep testing system which is capable of in-situ measurement of strain. Tubular specimens were pressurized with argon gas for effective stresses up to 32 MPa. Experimental results show that the thermal fatigue reduces the...
