Abstract: Fully ferritic stainless steels, strengthened by Laves phase precipitates, were developed for high-temperature application in the next generation of ultra-super-critical thermal power plants. Based on the rapid occurrence of thermomechanically induced precipitation in strengthening Laves phase particles, a novel thermomechanical process route for this class of steels was developed. A controlled precipitation of particles, in a desired morphology and quantity, and an optimization of the corresponding forging parameters was achieved on a laboratory scale. This article outlines the very first up-scaling experiment with these optimized forging parameters from the laboratory scale to the industrial scale. The precipitation behavior was analyzed, utilizing digital particle analysis of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, to estimate and compare the phase fraction of the precipitated Laves phase, as well as the particle size and distribution. Due to the up-scaling in the forging process, the behavior of the precipitation changed and the precipitation strengthening effect was decreased, in comparison with the laboratory scale.
