Fatigue crack propagation behavior and the corrosion inhibition effect of sodium nitrite inhibitior were investigated from the observation of fracture surface of Cr-Mo cast steel under superposed stress both in air and in fresh water containing NaNO
2 at 80°C.
Under zero-tention loading of single wave, the change of crack front profile,
a/c (aspect ratio) and the relation between the crack growth rate,
da/dN and stress intensity factor, Δ
K were represented by the following equations.
a/c=0.90-3.98×10
-1(
a/D),
D: Diameter of specimen.
da/dN=1.04×10
-10(Δ
K)
4.06Beach mark spacings coincided well with the block of superposed waves,
Zp, and they were affected by the stress ratio,
m. The beach marks were observed clearly at
m=0.3, but not
m=0.4 nor 0.5. The change of crack front profile was classified into two types. One was that where the crack propagated with
a≅
c in a semi-circular or semi-elliptical form. The other was that where the crack propagated with
a<
c, and afterwards propagated in a semi-elliptical form. The initial cracks always propagated with
a<
c in fresh water containing NaNO
2 at 80°C. The fracture patterns influenced by corrosion were observed at the initial crack propagation region.
