Re: Re: [MW:5784] hydro test

DEAR SURESH,

Thanks for your reply,this is manifold for pumping station,AWS D1.1
the client just tell 100bar and 6hours holding time with recorder. no
given any specification.so when during the test increase the pressure
the supervisor reduce and maintain the 100bar.maximum how much bar
increase .or any calculation of temperature and pressure bar,please
tell me.

regards,
a.s.selvan

>Dear Selvan,
 
I understand what is your intention .See........ you are not mention
what code and what process you are followed..
 
In Generally as per you have mentioned TP is 100 Bar so PSV should set
for 110 BAR .you are telling that duration is 6 hours (I do not know
whether it is Hydro or service test ? ) however

 
However if there is Hydro test , you need to maintain the pressure
between Test Pressure and Set pressure during the holding time .
 
As long as there is no leak found visually during the holding time test
would be acceptable.
 
Your supervisor what stated you that maintain 100 Bar all the time
during period.It is wrong .
 
Pressure should be concistencly increases according to temp increases
,Even there is Air inside the pipe or leak occurred pressure will not
be stable unless it less test pressure.

 
I hope you cleared now .better you should use pressure recorder .them
you can able to justify easily based on the pressure and temperature
graphs from the recorder.

 
Thanks
 
Suresh

dear,


please any body explain me. my test pressure is 100bar and holding
time is 6hours.when he do the test, the pressure and temperature is

increase,our supervisor reduce the pressure and maintain the same
100bar
it is correct or what.please tell me.this is station manifold.

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

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

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, ...
