For dissimilar metal welds (DMWs) involving nickel-based weld metal (WM) and ferritic heat resistant steel base metal (BM) in power plants, there must be an interface between WM and BM, and this interface suffers mechanical and microstructure mismatches and is often the rupture location of premature failure. In this study, a new form of WM/BM interface form, namely double Y-type interface was designed for the DMWs. Creep behaviors and life of DMWs containing double Y-type interface and conventional I-type interface were compared by finite element analysis and creep tests, and creep failure mechanisms were investigated by stress-strain analysis and microstructure characterization. By applying double Y-type interface instead of conventional I-type interface, failure location of DMW could be shifted from the WM/ferritic heat-affected zone (HAZ) interface into the ferritic HAZ or even the ferritic BM, and the failure mode change improved the creep life of DMW. The interface premature failure of I-type interface DMW was related to the coupling effect of microstructure degradation, stress and strain concentrations, and oxide notch on the WM/HAZ interface. The creep failure of double Y-type interface DMW was the result of Type IV fracture due to the creep voids and micro-cracks on fine-grain boundaries in HAZ, which was a result of the matrix softening of HAZ and lack of precipitate pinning at fine-grain boundaries. The double Y-type interface form separated the stress and strain concentrations in DMW from the WM/HAZ interface, preventing the trigger effect of oxide notch on interface failure and inhibiting the interfacial microstructure cracking. It is a novel scheme to prolong creep life and enhance reliability of DMW, by means of optimizing the interface form, decoupling the damage factors from WM/HAZ interface, and then changing the failure mechanism and shifting the failure location.
