Abstract

This invention provides a ferritic heat transfer member and a heat resistant ferritic steel which are excellent in heat transfer characteristics and steam oxidation resistance properties. The heat resistant ferritic steel includes a base material, and an oxidized layer A on the surface of the base material. The base material has a chemical composition containing, in mass %: C: 0.01 to 0.3%, Si: 0.01 to 2.0%, Mn: 0.01 to 2.0%, Cr: 7.0 to 14.0%, N: 0.005 to 0.15%, and sol. Al: 0.001 to 0.3%, and one or more types of element selected from the specific oxidized layer forming elements of 0.5 to 7.0%, with the balance being Fe and impurities. An oxidized layer A includes a chemical composition containing, in mass %: Cr and Mn in a total amount of 20 to 45%, and one or more types of element selected from the specific oxidized layer forming elements of 0.5 to 10%.
