Additional information

There is a huge drive worldwide to operate power generation plant at higher temperatures to improve efficiency and reduce carbon emissions. Power plant manufacturers (e.g. Alstom Gordon McColvin) need to be confident that alloys will operate reliably over many years of operation. IN617 alloy is a strong candidate for high temperature operation. This work, as part of a major industrial consortium TSB project, shows that the deleterious mu-phase does occur in creep-exposed IN617. The work has led to an invited book chapter on Modelling Creep Degradation in Power Generation Alloys (to be published by Elsevier Francis Dodds).
