Abstract:
High-temperature plastic flow of heat-resistant 2.25Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel was investigated by hot tension (at 500-650 °C) on a Gleeble 3800 machine. The strain rate of hot tension was set as 0.001-1 s-1. The constitutive relation of the steel was modeled by the introduction of the parameters termed "true activation energy" and "threshold stress". Then, the kinetics of high-temperature plastic flow was analyzed based on an Arrhenius equation modified by a "threshold stress". The stress exponent of the modified equation was equal to 5. True activation energy was estimated to be 132 kJ·mol-1. According to the slip band model, the basic mechanism behind the hot deformation of the steel was considered to be dislocation climbing, which was governed by grain boundary diffusion. This model proved to be successful in its analysis of the experimental results of hot tension tests.
