This paper reviews the differences between two nickel based alloys, Alloy 740 and Alloy 740H. Microstructural evolution models are used to forecast the changes in volume fraction and interparticle spacing of both grain boundary and intra-granular precipitates in the alloys. These data are then employed in continuum damage mechanics models to forecast creep curves, and in fracture mechanics models to forecast Charpy impact energies/energy. The results reveal the key microstructural features that control secondary and tertiary creep rate as well as the time dependence of Charpy impact energy after high temperature exposure.
