The object of the project will be the technology of plastic shaping of thick-walled elbows made of martensitic , high-alloy and low-alloy steel, for construction of boilers for supercritical parameters.
The effect of the project will be the calculation method of parameters of process of manufacturing of thick-walled smooth elbows and determining of useful properties of elbows made of martensitic steel, i.e. their geometrical and criterial mechanical features.
