Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The Ni based forged alloy has a composition containing, on the basis of mass percent, Al: 0.5 to 1.0%, Cr: 17 to 21%, Fe: 17 to 19%, Nb: 4.5 to 5.5%, Ti: 0.8 to 1.3%, W: 3.0 to 6.0%, B: 0.001 to 0.03%, C: 0.001 to 0.015%, and Mo: 1.0% or less, the balance being Ni and inevitable impurities. The alloy includes carbide grains of the contained elements. The carbide grains have an average grain diameter of 20 μm or less. Thus, a Ni based forged alloy is provided which is excellent in high-temperature fatigue property and has a moderate macrosegregation property.

First claim

What is claimed is: 1. A turbine disc including the Ni based forged alloy having a composition containing, on the basis of mass percent: Al: 0.5 to 1.0%, Cr: 17 to 21%, Fe: 17 to 19%, Nb: 4.5 to 5.5%, Ti: 0.8 to 1.3%, W: 3.0 to 6.0%, B: 0.001 to 0.03%, C: 0.001 to 0.015%, and Mo: 1.0% or less, the balance being Ni and inevitable impurities, the alloy including carbide grains of the contained elements, wherein the carbide grains have an average grain diameter of 20 μm or less; and the turbine disc having a mass of 0.6 ton or more. 2. A turbine spacer including the Ni based forged alloy having a composition containing, on the basis of mass percent: Al: 0.5 to 1.0%, Cr: 17 to 21%, Fe: 17 to 19%, Nb: 4.5 to 5.5%, Ti: 0.8 to 1.3%, W: 3.0 to 6.0%, B: 0.001 to 0.03%, C: 0.001 to 0.015%, and Mo: 1.0% or less, the balance being Ni and inevitable impurities, the alloy including carbide grains of the contained elements, wherein the carbide grains have an average grain diameter of 20 μm or less; and the turbine spacer having a mass of 0.25 ton or more. 3. A gas turbine including a turbine disc and/or turbine spacer including the Ni based forged alloy having a composition containing, on the basis of mass percent: Al: 0.5 to 1.0%, Cr: 17 to 21%, Fe: 17 to 19%, Nb: 4.5 to 5.5%, Ti: 0.8 to 1.3%, W: 3.0 to 6.0%, B: 0.001 to 0.03%, C: 0.001 to 0.015%, and Mo: 1.0% or less, the balance being Ni and inevitable impurities, the alloy including carbide grains of the contained elements, wherein the carbide grains have an average grain diameter of 20 μm or less; and the gas turbine giving a power of 50 MW or more. 4. The gas turbine according to claim 3 , wherein the turbine disc has a mass of 0.6 ton or more and/or the turbine spacer has a mass of 0.25 ton or more.
