ASME STP-PT-087 – Yield Strength Values Up To Maximum Temperature Design

The publication provides yield strength data for different materials (steels, copper, and nickel-base) fortemperatures greater than the ones provided in current ASME BPVC IID/Y-1 tables. For this purpose, datafrom different sources were obtained. The current Y-1 Tables values were not to be affected; therefore, thedata had to be fit to those values (customary and metric). This led to bumps in the curves, which werenormalized by shifting the data of the current report (in the percent range). Providing smooth curves via apolynomial fit through all data is certainly an alternative, however, this would also affect values in ASMEBPVC IID/Y-1 tables. The data provided in this report would allow for such a treatment.
