Abstract

The present invention discloses a method and system for predicting a creep-fatigue life of a structural part of a thermal power unit. The method includes: constructing a life prediction model; acquiring a stress relaxation curve in a strain control creep-fatigue test through pure creep data to calculate an initial creep damage; acquiring a cyclic hardening coefficient, an elasticity modulus and other related material constants through the pure fatigue data to calculate an initial fatigue damage; and acquiring a difference between strain energy densities in upper and lower parts of creep-fatigue mean stress, making the difference between strain energy densities less than a set threshold through dichotomy iteration to acquire a final creep damage, a final fatigue damage and an oxidative damage under such a circumstance, and predicting the creep-fatigue life of the high-temperature structural part based on the life prediction model.
