Abstract
A forge-welded medium pressure rotor for 325 MW steam turbine is described, which is made from 20Kh3MVFA steel (high-temperature operation conditions) and 25Kh2NMFA steel (low-temperature conditions). Welding consumables were selected, and technology of mechanized submerged-arc welding of joints of 25Kh2NMFA + EI 415 steels was developed and certified. Physico-mechanical properties of welded joint metal in the condition after high-temperature tempering in the case of application of both local and imported welding consumables were assessed.
