    Abstract

    Much hydrogen penetrates from a container wall surface when a petroleum-refining reactor operates under high temperature and pressurized hydrogen environmental condition. Major part of the hydrogen remains in the wall for a long time during cooling process when the reactor is out of operation, which results in the inducement of peculiar delayed fracture. In this paper, the proposed analytical method on hydrogen diffusion and concentration around a crack tip was applied to this phenomenon and the mechanism of this behavior was clarified.
