    Abstract

    There are currently no techniques available to monitor the microstructural condition of power station steel components in-service (at elevated temperatures). Electromagnetic (EM) inspection methods have the potential to provide a solution to this problem. Tests have been carried out on power generation steel (P9 and T22) samples with different microstructural states using major and minor B-H loop measurements and correlations established between EM properties and material properties such as Vickers hardness. These correlations will be used to develop a field deployable tool for the quantification of degradation in power station steels. © 2013 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
