Re: [MW:14489] Support Joint PWHT is requied or Not (If support thickness morethen 13 mm in P11 material

By Materials & Welding
Dear Lalit,
In all P11 materials, it is always advisable to go for a PWHT for all welds.
Thanks and Bets Regards,

Dear Expert,
 
In case of P11 alloy steel material, if trunnion support thickness is morethen 13mm, in that case PWHT is required or not?

Dear lalit. WE have done PWHT in P4+P4 group material if thickness 16 mm in case of stub and attachment weld . But in case of piping P4 group to P4 group material thickness of groove/ butt for all thickness PWHT is necessary. Here PWHT is necessary in your case only if attachment thickness is 16 mm and material having carbon % less than 0.15%. If you know the detail please see the ASME SECOND VIII DIV -2 or PWHT -38. P4+P4. Thickness =13mm pre heat - 125 For case of fillet (range 1.6 to12 mm) P4+P4 Thickness =13mm preheat. 150 (range 9mm to 200mm). P4+P4 in case of pipe for all thickness PWHT must. Preheating =150. During Heat treatment HOLDING temp. Is (640 to 670 ) And post heat is NIL. Please note that. Also thease two things as discuss. 1- irrespective of the stub or attachment materials, the PWHT cycle shall be governed by the pipe material.2- throat shall be specified in the drawing wherever flanges are welded to pipes combined throat shall be taken into consideration.

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...
