Abstract

The fatigue crack growth tests of spray formed GH738 superalloy with compact tension (CT) specimens were carried out at different temperatures, loading frequency and R-ratios. The effects of temperatures, loading frequency and R-ratios on fatigue crack growth behaviors were investigated .The results show that the crack propagation rate increases with the increase of temperature; Fatigue crack propagation increases with the decrease of loading frequency; Fatigue crack growth rate da/dN is also found to increase with the larger R-ratios. The crack initiates multi-sites, and the fatigue fracture individually exhibits a series of fatigue striations mode in the crack steady growth region.
