Subject: Impact value requirements for sub Size Specimen (Size 10x7.5mm) at -20 Deg.F against requirement 14 Deg.F (Size 10x10mm)

 

Hi,

 

I have consolidated the subject query as below,

 

1. Impact requirement at 14 Deg.F with values of 27 J Average and 20 J Minimum Individual.

 

2. PQR Tested at -20 Deg.F with Sub size 10x7.5mm with values of 11, 8 and 7 J individual and average of 9 J.

 

3. Material: API 5L X52

 

4. Thickness: 0.365’’ (9.2mm)

 

5. Design Code: ASME Sec VIII Div.1 and ASME B31.8

 

 

Whether -20 Deg.F can support 14 Deg.F requirements. According to me it is possible, but the values at -20Deg.F is less than the requirement as per 9.10.4 of API 1104 conversion which are 27 J Minimum Individual and 36 J Average.

 

Pl share your interpretation and let me have your view.

 

Regards,
Vasanth
