[MW:1216] Re: How to reduce the exposure time for RT

By Materials & Welding
Dear CKP,
you can use combination of two sources together ( unsharpness is not an issue since the thickness is 100mm and SFD 2m) this will increase the Curie strength of the source.
Also while developing you may increase the Temperature of the developer to 2 deg.C sothat an imporvement of 0.2 H&D of optical density can be had, proportionately you can reduce the exposure time. When you use Combination of films ( double film with minimum optical density of 1.3H&D per film), you are in tern effectively reducing the exposure time by 40% when compared to that of a single film with 2.0H&D optical density.
 
you can even try to use high speed films such as AGFA D8 provided you are achieving the required sensitivity. This will reduce further 30% of exposure time.
Try the above remedies, all the best !
 
regards,
 
RPE

Dear Group,

 

I need help to find out how to reduce the exposure time for heavy wall thickness RT (above 4" thickness and ID of vessels 4 meter) .

 

Composite film is one of the option. Any other idea ?

 

I heard from my client that there are accelerators available which can be used for developing the film to compensate the reduce time of exposure.

 

We are using Co-60.

 

Regards.

CK

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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

By Materials & Welding
Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
