Abstract

A heat resistant cast steel containing, in mass %, C: 0.05-0.15, Si: 0.03-0.2, Mn: 0.1-1.5, Ni: 0.1-1, Cr: 8-10.5, Mo: 0.2-1.5, V: 0.1-0.3, Co: 0.1-5, W: 0.1-5, N: 0.005-0.03, Nb: 0.01-0.2, B: 0.002-0.015, Ti: 0.01-0.1, Fe and unavoidable impurities. A method for manufacturing a heat resistant cast steel, the method including melting raw materials to obtain a molten metal, refining and degassing the molten metal, pouring the molten metal into a predetermined mold to form a shape, performing an annealing treatment at a temperature of 1000 to 1150° C., performing a normalizing treatment at a temperature of 1000 to 1200° C., performing a first stage tempering treatment at a temperature of 500 to 700° C., and performing a second stage tempering treatment at a temperature of 700 to 780° C.

Claims (27)

1. A method of manufacturing a heat resistant cast steel comprising, in percent by mass, C: 0.05-0.15, Si: 0.03-0.2, Mn: 0.1-1.5, Ni: 0.1-1, Cr: 8-8.7, Mo: 0.2-1.5, V: 0.1-0.3, Co: 2.7-5, W: 0.1-5, N: 0.005-0.03, Nb: 0.01-0.2, B: 0.004-0.015, Ti: 0.01-0.1, and Fe, the method comprising:

melting raw materials,

refining and degassing the melted raw materials,

pouring the melted raw materials into a predetermined mold to form a shape,

performing an annealing treatment at a temperature of 1000 to 1150° C.,

cooling the annealed raw materials at a cooling rate of 20 to 60° C./hour,

performing a normalizing treatment at a temperature of 1000 to 1200° C.,

cooling the normalized raw materials at a cooling rate of 100 to 600° C./hour in a center part of the heat resistant cast steel,

performing a first stage tempering treatment at a temperature of 500 to 700° C.,

cooling the first-stage tempered raw materials at a cooling rate of 40 to 100° C./hour in the center part of the heat resistant cast steel,

performing a second stage tempering treatment at a temperature of 700 to 780° C., and

cooling the second-stage tempered raw materials at a cooling rate of 20 to 60° C./hour.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the heat resistant cast steel further comprises, in percent by mass, at least one selected from the group consisting of Ta: 0.01-0.2, Zr: 0.01-0.1 and Re: 0.01-1.5.

3. A method of manufacturing a cast part of a steam turbine, the method comprising:

melting raw materials,

refining and degassing the melted raw materials,

pouring the melted raw materials into a predetermined mold to form a shape,

performing an annealing treatment at a temperature of 1000 to 1150° C.,

cooling the annealed raw materials at a cooling rate of 20 to 60° C./hour,

performing a normalizing treatment at a temperature of 1000 to 1200° C.,

cooling the normalized raw materials at a cooling rate of 100 to 600° C./hour in a center part of the heat resistant cast steel,

performing a first stage tempering treatment at a temperature of 500 to 700° C.,

cooling the first-stage tempered raw materials at a cooling rate of 40 to 100° C./hour in the center part of the heat resistant cast steel,

performing a second stage tempering treatment at a temperature of 700 to 780° C., and

cooling the second-stage tempered raw materials at a cooling rate of 20 to 60° C./hour,

to obtain a cast part comprising, in percent by mass, C: 0.05-0.15, Si: 0.03-0.2, Mn: 0.1-1.5, Ni: 0.1-1, Cr: 8-8.7, Mo: 0.2-1.5, V: 0.1-0.3, Co: 2.7-5, W: 0.1-5, N: 0.005-0.03, Nb: 0.01-0.2, B: 0.004-0.015, Ti: 0.01-0.1, and Fe.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the obtained cast part further comprises, in percent by mass, at least one selected from the group consisting of Ta: 0.01-0.2, Zr: 0.01-0.1 and Re: 0.01-1.5.
