Strain controlled fatigue tests of a carbon steel in oxygenated high temperature water were carried out under the condition of combined and synchronized mechanical and thermal strain cycling. The effects of temperature change on environmental fatigue life were investigated, showing basic conceptual data to evaluate the fatigue damage under the condition of transient temperature change of actual plant components.
