| Research Abstract |
With regard to the chemical plant typified by oil refineries in which high pressure hydrogen gas is treated a high temperature, it is very important to develop the high temperature type hydrogen sensor by which hydrogen attack is predicted. Through three years' project, the following results were obtained :
(1) The developed hydrogen sensor, which can detect hydrogen permeation current, was found to keep reliability and stability over 2000 hours through the measurement of hydrogen permeation current, when it was attached on plants in service.
(2) On the basis the results obtained in service, it was evaluated whether or not the materials under operation lies in safety for hydrogen attack, using the value of the hydrogen parameter (that is, hydrogen diffusion coefficient) and the modified Nelson chart under several assumptions.
(3) By using the hydrogen sensor, the behavior of hydrogen permeation current was confirmed to depend upon material texture and the size/distribution of carbides.
(4) It is found that hydrogen permeation current is controlled by grain size when grain grows, while it is controlled by the size/distribution of carbides when grain shows no growth.
