Dear Raghuram Bathula,

 

The Indian Society for Non-Destructive Testing (ISNT), Kalpakkam Chapter, is organising a two day Workshop on ‘Non-Destructive Evaluation of Corrosion’ during 10 and 11 May, 2008, at Hotel Radha Park Inn, Arumbakkam, Chennai. The Workshop is intended to be an intensive orientation course for engineers, designers, executives, managers, students and faculty of engineering colleges in application of non-destructive testing techniques for detection and evaluation of corrosion. I am enclosing a brochure for your perusal.

 

Corrosion poses serious problems to the safe and economic operation of a wide variety of industrial installations. Today, corrosion management has become the order of the day in major industries to scientifically tackle corrosion. Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) through off-line and on-line techniques has become necessary for better corrosion management. NDE of corrosion would contribute significantly in planning the maintenance schedules of components besides development of risk assessment strategies and integrity management programs. Hence, it is essential for engineering professionals to update their knowledge on the corrosion behaviour of materials and its NDE.

 

The subject content of NECOR 2008 has been drawn up to address the above issues. Eminent speakers from the industries and research institutions will deliver lectures on 17 topics which include radiographic, ultrasonic, eddy current, acoustic emission, magnetic, laser, thermal and electrochemical methods for corrosion monitoring, corrosion detection and evaluation in nuclear systems, thermal power plants, chemical and petrochemical plants, cathodic and anodic protection systems, concrete structures and in buried pipelines, automation and robotics for corrosion monitoring, life prediction and extension methodologies for corroding systems.

 

I am writing this letter to request you to nominate delegates from your organisation in large numbers to NECOR 2008. I am sure the delegates would benefit immensely by attending NECOR 2008. I also invite you to advertise in the Proceedings of NECOR 2008 and/or be a sponsor of the Workshop.

 

I also request you to give wide publicity to this Workshop amongst your contacts.

 

Thanking you and with warm regards

 

Yours sincerely

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...

The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams for predicting ferrite levels in austenitic stainless steel welds

By Materials & Welding
Introduction Ferrite is important in avoiding hot cracking in during cooling from welding of austenitic stainless steels. 'Constitution diagrams' are used to predict ferrite levels from the composition by comparing the effects of austenite and ferrite stabilising elements. The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams are the original methods of predicting the phase balances in austenitic stainless steel welds. Nickel and chromium equivalents A 'nickel equivalent' is calculated for the austenite stabilising elements and a 'chromium equivalent' ferrite stabilising elements. These are used as the axes for the diagrams, which show the compositional equivalent areas where the phases austenite, ferrite, martensite (and mixtures of these) should be present. Although intended to show the phase balance of weld fillers, these diagrams can also be used to illustrate the phase balance of the 'parent' material. There are different diagrams for dif...
