[MW:21963] Re: Allowable Thinning as Per IBR in Bends of Superheater U-Bends(1D) of Alloysteel Tubes(SA335T11/T22) after Forming

By Materials & Welding


In your case the same will be < 16.6%


(ii) Thinning on tube bends.  Thinning on tube bends shall comply with the following.

(a) At any location around the bend extrados, the reduction in thickness (in percent) below the calculated minimum permissible design thickness of the straight tube, except where permitted by (b), shall not exceed:

          __100___

             4R + 2                                    

              D

where

R is the mean radius of the bend to the centre line of the tube (in mm).

D is the ordered outside diameter of the tube (in mm).

               (b) Bend thickness below the minimum value required under (a) shall be permitted in cases where the manufacturer can demonstrate by bursting tests carried out on at least three bends that the strength of the bend is not less than that of the straight tube.

               (c) Where the amount of thinning at any location around the bend extrados on cold formed bends exceeds 25% of the actual thickness of the tube on the straight the bends shall be suitably heat treated.  The actual thickness of the same plans as the line of the extrados at each and of the bend.

Dear all
Can anybody put some light on the Allowable thining in the Wall thickness of "U" Bend of  44.5 OD X 4.5 mm WT of SA335 T11 or T22 Alloy Super Heater Tubes after Cold Bending of Size 1.0 D. as per IBR (Indian Boiler Regulation)

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, ...
