Investigation of in-service embrittlement in 12% CrMoVNbN turbine studs and techniques for its assessment

The present study investigates the toughness degradation mechanism(s) present in a series of 12% CrMoVNbN steel turbine studs using both virgin and ex-service material. It is demonstrated that the embrittlement mechanism is reversible using various re-heat treatments and also that following re-heat...
