Research on Hot Deformation Behavior of F92 Steel Based on Stress Correction

In order to systematically study the stress correction method and hot deformation behavior of F92 stainless steel, the hot compression test was performed using a Gleeble-3500 (DSI USA, Connecticut, CT, USA) at strain rates of 0.01–10 s−1 and deformation temperatures of 750–1150 °C. First, to obtain the truest stress values from the original data, we adopted two stress correction models that did not affect each other, and the order of the two correction models was also different. Second, the adiabatic-friction-corrected stress was used as the input value of the AR model to predict the high-temperature flow behavior of F92 steel. Third, the optimal hot working parameters of F92 steel were determined via modeling and microstructure characterization. The results were as follows: The final correction values for both models were smaller than those from the original data. The stress deviation corrected by model 1 reached a maximum value of 59 MPa at 750 °C and 10 s−1. After establishing the Arrhenius (AR) model, it was determined that the accuracy of stress correction model 2 was stronger than that of model 1. Additionally, the corrected stress improved the predictive power of the AR model. The hot working range of F92 steel falls within a deformation temperature of 850 °C to 1050 °C and strain rate of 0.1 s−1 to 1 s−1. Finally, the AR model was used to describe the high-temperature flow behavior of F92 steel.
