For determining this parameter experimental works, FE methods, and engineering approaches can be utilized. In this paper, in order to facilitate FE methods in C* determination for a CT specimen, creep behavior models of Norton and Liu-Murakami were developed and related subroutines were created. Each of the aforementioned models has its own temperature dependent material coefficients which were determined and validated based on creep rupture tests on crack free uniaxial specimens of P9 steel and IN78 super alloy, respectively, at temperatures of 65C and 62C. In this study creep fracture mechanic parameter value of a CT specimen made of P9 steel was derived by application of Norton and Liu- Murakami creep behavior models and results were compared with results of the experimental tests and reference stress engineering approach results. The results indicate that Liu-Murakami creep behavior model better estimates creep fracture mechanics parameter with greater accuracy, yet reference stress engineering approach is the most economical way to determine this parameter.
