Constitutive analysis for hot working of modified 9Cr-1Mo (P91) ferritic steel was carried out employing experimental stress-strain data from isothermal hot compression tests, in a wide range of temperatures (1123-1373 K), strains (0.1-0.5) and strain rates (10(-3)-10(2) s(-1)). The effects of temperature and strain rate on deformation behaviour were represented by Zener-Hollomon parameter in an exponent-type equation. The influence of strain was incorporated in the constitutive equation by considering the effect of strain on different material constants. Activation energy was found to vary with strain in the range 369-391 kJ mol(-1). The developed constitutive equation (considering the compensation of strain) could predict flow stress of modified 9Cr-1Mo steel over the specified hot working domain with very good correlation and generalization.
