Re: [MW:10725] WPS Qualification / Pressure Vessel / ASME Sec VIII, Div 1

By Materials & Welding
Dear Vino,

Please have a look at Qw-420.2 which allows you to use ASTM material for qualification.

In 2009, changes were made and S no. was removed from ASME Sec ix, "Base materials previously assigned S no were reassigned the corresponding P no or P no plus Gr no"

ASTM material shall have same P no as assigned to ASME material (SA333 Gr6 - P1 Gr1 & A350 LF2 - P1 Gr2)

Dear All,
 
Design Code: ASME Sec VIII, Div 1
U-Stamp Pressure Vessel
 
Reference Code : ASME Sec IX, Edition 2007, Add 09
Material of Construction: SA 516 Gr 70N(30mm thk)
PQR Material : 1. Pipe - ASME SA 333 and 2. Flange : ASTM A350 LF2
 
Query:
Is it mandatory that Qualification has to be done only with a ASME Material?
If ASTM Material is used for qualification, then WPS will be qualified only for that particualr Material and cannot be Qualified as P1 Material. Please provide all reference from Code for justification.
 
Hope to see that i was able to communicate properly with regard to raised query.
 
Expecting as usual response from all sides.
 
Thanks & Regards
Vino-Doha

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

By Materials & Welding
Hi,  You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this.  Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime.  Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC.  The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case).  One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example.  In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Wit...

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
Introduction The colour formed when stainless steel is heated, either in a furnace application or in the heat affected zone of welds, is dependent on several factors that are related to the oxidation resistance of the steel. The heat tint or temper colour formed is caused by the progressive thickening of the surface oxide layer and so, as temperature is increased, the colours change.   Oxidation resistance of stainless steels However, there are several factors that affect the degree of colour change and so there is no a single table of colour and temperature that represents all cases. The colours formed can only be used as an indication of the temperature to which the steel has been heated. Factors affecting the heat tint colours formed Steel composition The chromium content is the most important single factor affecting oxidation resistance. The higher the chromium, the more heat resistant the steel and so the development of the heat tint colou...
