The microstructure and mechanical properties of alloy 617 are influenced significantly by the thermal heat treatment and the following thermal exposure in service. Hence, a solution annealed and a long-time service exposed material condition is studied. The crack growth measurement is carried out by using an alternate current potential drop system, which is integrated into a thermomechanical fatigue (TMF) test facility. The measured fatigue crack growth rates results in a function of material condition, temperature and load waveform. Furthermore, the results of the non-isothermal tests depend on the phase between thermal and mechanical load (in-phase, out-of-phase). A fracture mechanic based, time dependent model is upgraded by an approach to consider environmental effects, where almost all model parameters represent directly measureable values. A consistent description of all results and a good correlation with the experimental data can be achieved.}, language = {en} }
