Residual Stress • Sach’s test • Destructive • expensive • For ID measurement gages are mounted on OD and sample is incrementally bored • For OD measurement strain gages are mounted on ID and sample is incrementally turned
Sach’s Residual Stress Calculations Equations for longitudinal and circumferential stresses: turning • nL = - E/1-2 [(n-N/2)(n+1 - n-1+n] • nC = - E/1-2 [(n-N/2)( n+1 - n-1+ (n+N/2n) n] boring • nL = - E/1-2 [(n-N/2)( n+1 - n-1+(n+N/2n) n] • nC = - E/1-2 [(n-N/2)( n+1 - n-1+ n}

Threshold Fatigue Crack Growth DEFINITIONS • DK = The driving force or stress intensity factor • DK is a scale factor which defines the magnitude of the stress field at the crack tip • Crack growth rate, da/dn = The amount of crack growth per load cycle
Threshold Fatigue Crack Growth • Driving force for crack (or flaw) growth • Instantaneous length of crack at any time, t • Geometry of cracked material • The magnitude of cyclic loading • Dkthreshold = Ds(acritical *)1/2 Where: Ds = range of cyclic stress acritical = 1/2 the critical flaw size required for fatigue crack growth
P a W P B Threshold Fatigue Crack Growth K = [P/B(W1/2)] [(2+)/(1-)3/2 ] (0.866+4.64-13.322 + 14.723 - 5.64) where: P is the range of load is the crack length B is the specimen thickness W is the specimen width

Threshold Fatigue Crack Growth NOTE: The stress intensity factor, K, allows one to Correlate between the behavior of a cracking lab Specimen and a cracked component because it Characterizes the stress field at the crack tip
Conclusions • Microstructure • A fine and homogeneous microstructure, give improved strength and corrosion fatigue strength. • Chemical composition • Duplex stainless steels have similar alloying elements Adding molybdenum provides improved corrosion resistance, including crevice and chloride pitting attack. • Corrosion fatigue strength • Higher strength and higher corrosion resistance leads to higher corrosion fatigue strength.
Conclusions • Threshold fatigue crack growth • High threshold fatigue crack growth rate values contribute to long lived suction roll shells. • Thermal fatigue strength • Smaller grain size gives better resistance to thermal fatigue. • Experience • Design and application of suction rolls requires experience and machine operating tim eto prove an alloy
Conclusions • Material A has the suction roll shell properties and the experience to handle all paper making suction roll applications.
