The super 304HCu austenitic stainless steel tubes containing 2.3 to 3 (% wt) of Cu is mainly used in superheaters and reheater of ultra super critical boilers. The addition of Cu to super 304HCu has caused improvement in its corrosion and creep resistance. Austenitic stainless steels welded by constant current gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) produce coarse columnar grains, increase alloy segregation and may result in low mechanical properties of the weld joint. Hence, autogenous pulsed current GTAW (PC-GTAW) was used to weld super 304HCu tubes of 57.1 mm outer diameter and 3.5 mm thick to control the solidification structure by altering the prevailing thermal gradients in the weld pool. The microstructure, hot tensile properties (550 °C, 600 °C and 650 °C), and fracture surface of the autogenous PC-GTAW welded joint was evaluated. Current pulsing in PC-GTAW joint cannot eliminate segregation in weld metal and exhibited lower tensile strength than the parent metal at all test temperature.Keywords

The thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) route was used to synthesize multi walled carbon nano tubes (MWCNTs) and metal NiO powders was used as catalyst and it supported on crystalline alumina nano particles. Acetylene was used as the carbon source gas and Argon was used as the carrier gas. An empirical relationship was developed to predict the diameter of MWNTs incorporating important CVD process parameters. Three factors, five levels central composite design was used to minimize number of experimental conditions. The CVD parameters such as reaction temperature, gas flow rate and process time were chosen as the important parameters. The diameter of MWNTs was measured using field emission scanning electron microcopy (FESEM). Analysis of variance (ANOVA) method was used to identify significant main and interaction factors. Final empirical relationship was developed using these significant factors. The developed empirical relationship can be effectively used to predict the diameter of MWNTs synthesized through CVD process at 95% confidence level.Keywords
