 The product is hardwares,forged shafts, ( at raw material & after machined ). 
 
Can I put ASME SEC V at above stages ???
 
CCH 70-3 - Standard Specification for Inspection of steel casting for Hydrulic Machine.
Normaly this std applicable for hydulic turbines cast components such as runner balde,crown,band,guidevanes etc. That include inspection procedure & acceptance class.

[MW:815] Re: Arc Generation

Dear S.Mahuri,
For arc generation in arc welding two electrodes are necessary. Now take example of SMAW welding. Normally electrode is  +ve electrode and the work piece is -ve electode.
When high ampere current is applied through electrode and when welder brings welding electrode very near to work piece the current try to flow from negative to positve. But there is gap of air. When the electorde is in close proximity of the work piece the air gap is minimised. Currnet try to flow  & air making resistance to current flow and great amount of heat is generated at welding spot by making the air ionisation and ionised air gases now become conductive and passes the current from / to work piece to electorde. With generation of high temparature the electrode starts melting and welding progresses.

Hi,

ASME V does refer to these methods as acceptable to it. So when you put one the others are taken care of.

And what is CCH70?

[MW:811] [MW:810]] Bolt coating.


In addition to Raghu's email, sorry that I forgot to mention that the multilayer polymer coated bolts are being recommended for service temperatures of less than 200 deg.c and for all material bolting assemblies in highly corrosive atmospheric seashore site locations.

Just to pointout, additionally the zinc reacting with SS being refered as the LME-Liquid Metal Embrittlement effect. Which is true for metal coated SS bolting and painting material having zinc as an ingredient which can possible spill over during site painting acitivity and during fabrication or erection welds crossing the melting temp. of zinc which will lead to LME. Accidents of failure of massive pressure equipments have occured due to this minor mistake of paint spray on SS vessels before going for heat treatment in shops. Moreover this embrittlement move across the thickness.

With regards,
Kannan.

Normally code references are not required for these types of welds, however for fillets size, you can specify thickness of thinner member to be joined or 6mm which ever is less, which is a GEP.

And intermittent fillets can be specified as 50-100 or 50-150 (50mm weld length and 100/150mm gap between two welds)

 

If you need you may use AWS D1.1 (refer table 2.4 under description 3.4)

[MW:805] UT as NDT for Welded Joints

It is designer's choice (what is end use, is it for skirt base or any part of the item which is subjected to stress due to pressure?); AD has a choice of choosing between D or US for butt welds under stress (LN)

In ASME Design “E” is selected based on RT; other wise it is quite normal to use UT for skirt base flange made of segments from plate, otherwise I have not come across any body flange made from plate in segment, instead of forging.

 

However TOFD can be and is used as a substitution of RT.  It is superior in that it can fully characterize and size defects that are found.  It is permitted as a substitute for RT in the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code via Code Case 2235.However, the use of TOFD requires substantial skill and experience.

Note: RT is superior for what it does.  TOFD is a new toy to play!

As I understand ASME does not allow UT

But AD- Merckblatt recommeds UT.

[MW:804] Re: [piping_valves] Selection of Gasket/Stud for SS#CS Flanges


Gasket selection which is quit a big subject is in addition to what Raghu has pointed out, also linked eitherway with flange selection and the type of facing etc. which does not have any fool proof solution and near perfect guidelines. Based on practical experience from the plants in operation the plant owners have defined thier own practice after experimenting with different rational options and in addition by the closing reports of various pilot plants. Which has been adapted by major engineering companies and is being passed on to other companies. Also everyone may be knowing that the weakest connection is a flange connection in a pipeline.

Coming to the situation of Zameer, is a default situation in any process plant. The BEP (Best engg. practice) would be to follow the worst case / stringent side of the piping class. In this case the SS flange side piping class definitions shall be applied. Also the contract docs. never define these common scenarios. The same applies to a piping of 300# is connected with a 150# rating piping. The 150# rating piping shall be welded with a 300# flange and bolted with the 300# rating piping on the other side.

I cannot envisage a situation where a equipment nozzle is SS and the connected piping is of CS material. If so pl. review with your process dept.

With regards,
Kannan

Gasket selection mainly depend on Temperature and Pressure of the media, Corrosive nature and Criticality of the application

Since you are using 316 in place of A105, u may use the similar combination of gasket, studs used for a CS#CS joint in the same process stream (since design conditions are same), unless you have contractual requirements if any.

The B148 is covered by MSS SP 80 and PT under B16.24 which covers copper alloy and for the ductile iron casting A 536 refer B16.42 and may be replaced with A 395 or can apply the PT method defined in that standard. As I do not have the latest version of the standard in my hand, you may verfiy the same.

With regards,

Dear Group memebers,

We are using the following material for valves/flanges in our project:

1) DI: ASTM A536 Gr. 65-45-12

2) Al-bronze: ASTM B148-C95800

The above materials are not covered in ASME B16.1 and B16.24. Can any
one
from the group guide me which standard will gude us for the exact
rating?

Best regards,

[MW:803] Re: Dissimilar Group number/Thickness combination PQR as per QW403.5/QW403.6

 
QW 202.4 allows you weld dissimilar thickness material in Production with a qualified PQR(s). Not for the qualification of dissimilar thickness. The thickness Qualification range is to be taken from QW 451or QW 403.6 (if impact test is required) from the thickness used for qualification.
For qualification you need similar thickness (for full penetration groove welds). You can use dissimilar thickness but you will not get the benefit from thicker material (thickness) as the thickness T considered is based upon the tensile specimen thickness used.
Please refer Section IX Interpretation No. IX 86-43 which is nearly similar to this query.
Thanks & Regards,
Sanjeevan

Min qualified thickness can't be 1.5mm, when impact testing required.
Qualified thk range for P1G1 will be 6-12mm and P1G2 would be 12-24mm,

Dissimilar thickness combinations are quite common to qualify (in

The qualified thickness range is 1.5mm to 12mm (2T) for P1G1to them
selves,
P1G2 to themselves & P1G1 to P1G2 combinations.

The maximum qualified weld deposit is 2t (to is deposited weld thickness

during the qualification).

If you qualify a procedure with different parent material thickness
(groove
weld), the thickness T can be considered based upon the tensile specimen

thickness (T) used for the destructive testing of the groove weld PQR.
In
short, qualification of different thickness of relatively less use in
ASME
Sec IX.

Normally none of the construction/ fabrication codes does not allow
difference in thickness more than 1.5T (of the thinnest). Any Thickness
welded above 1.5 will not be accounted in design.

[MW:799] Selection of Gasket/Stud for SS#CS Flanges

Gasket selection mainly depend on Temperature and Pressure of the media, Corrosive nature and Criticality of the application

Since you are using 316 in place of A105, u may use the similar combination of gasket, studs used for a CS#CS joint in the same process stream (since design conditions are same), unless you have contractual requirements if any.

Dear Friends,

We have 2 mating flanges, one is SS316 and another is A105. Can I connect SS Flange with CS Flange? In this case, what type of Gaskets, Stud Bolts & Nuts we can use?

For all other CS flanges we are using spiral wound gaskets.

Thank you,

[MW:797] Re: Dissimilar Group number/Thickness combination PQR as per QW403.5/QW403.6

From where u got 18.34mm? sounds interesting

for the time being we just concentrate on ASME IX for this problem,
not on any construction codes like B31.3, or ASME SecVIII, which in
addition have own variables to follow.

When Impact testing of HAZ is required by design, welding as per ASME SecIX

 

One of PQR qualified with a combination of group number and thickness welded together as 516 Gr60- 6mm thk and 516 Gr 70- 12mm thk

WPS prepared for the range of 6-24mm for both group numbers. (QW403.6)

 

In my opinion it virtually qualifies for nothing (except for 12mm thick) for a combination of group numbers

 

For E.g. I have nozzle SA333 Gr6 and WNRF flange SA350LF2 with thickness of 7.11mm

 

Where as in the above PQR, P#1, Gr#1 qualification range is 6-12mm and P#1, Gr#2 qualification range is 12-24mm and (QW403.5 and 403.6)

 

Please share your views, do my views justified by the correct interpretation of QW403.5 and 403.6?
