Transformation to retained austenite is possible, but is a relatively rare case.

--Sandeep,The issue is back to very basics of welding metallurgy. Please see the attached documents. The types of PWHT are many, however stress relieving is by far the most common PWHT adopted in BPV, Piping fabrication or any weld repair .What is stress relief and its' effects are nicely described in these documents.Stress relief does cause any metallurgical transformation. Metallurgical transformation during PWHT will add to stresses.If the metallurgical transformations are occurring during so called stress relief then PWHT is totally out of control.Thanks.Pradip Goswami, P.Eng,IWEWelding & Metallurgical SpecialistOntario, Canada

Subject: Re: [MW:18054] RE: 18041] metallurgy of weld joint PWHT--Dear Sandeep:
Cooling after welding is quite fast and when temp drops below Martensite Finish (Mf), it retards the transformation of austenite to some extent. SR is very similar to tempering and will help transformation of Retained Austenite (RA) and improves dimensional stability and soft spot issues.Of course this RA comes out in Alloys with more than 0.3% Carbon content but it may happen in low carbon grades too. Read the following article, you will get the idea.Regards

Dear Ramon Kondori Sir.
Earlier I was believing the same what you wrote in the reply.
Regarding the 3rd point u mentioned needs more clarification.,because no microstructure changes during pwht as pwht temperature is below the lower critical temperature of the metal but brittleness/hardness changes.
Please clarify your 3rd point
Sandeep.M.V
