Abstract
- An analysis of combined effect of temperature and load frequency on the fatigue crack growth rate and cracking velocity for Chlorinated Polyvinyl Chloride (CPVC) is presented in this paper. CPVC is a thermoplastic material used for piping systems where higher temperature and chemical resistance are important, becoming a good alternative to metals. The Dual Boundary Element Method (DBEM) is used to determine three dimensional states of stresses and strains at each increment of crack. Stress intensity factors at the crack tip are determined using the J-integral, and the crack growth direction is defined by the maximum principal stress criteria. A mathematical model proposed by Kim & Wang in 1994 based on experimental results is applied to predict cracking velocity. In this work, a specimen with lateral crack using temperature values between 23 and 70 °C and frequencies between 0.1 and 10 Hz is evaluated. The results show that cracking velocity increases with temperature increase and with frequency decrease. These results are compared to Paris & Erdogan model showing good agreement which reveals that DBEM could be an accurate tool to investigate the prediction of crack growth in polymers.
