Re: [MW:22545] Re: Titanium tube welding and cooling time required

Slow cooling under argon cover will reduce chances of Oxidation and cracking.

Dear Sekhar

What is important for Ti welding is the Cleanliness.  A dust free atmosphere, clean surface and consumables and the right parameters shall produce a good quality welding. A change of 5deg C temperature due to AC is not going to make any difference to weld quality but may add to welding machine operator's productivity.

Good luck

Dear Sirs,

What might be the temperature at the time of fusing the 0.7 mm thk tube by tungsten rod against the titanium tube sheet.

Subject: Titanium tube welding and cooling time required

Dear Sir,

We have Titanium tube of Dia. 25*0.7 thk tubes for condenser. A titanium layer of 5mm upon the carbon steel plate on which these tubes were cut to surface size of 0.5 mm protruding, later expansion 5-6% of the 0.7 mm thk tube there by seal welding with orbital welding machine.

What i want to know is there any cooling time required for the tube to be welded and the heat dissipated on the main tube sheet requires any cooling by Air Conditioning or natural cooling. In the earlier projects of 9 units we have never used the AC but, in this project the QC asked to use AC.  I am worried of cracks and concern about using AC which immediately cools down the weld bead or titanium sheet resulting a cracks or repair.

kindly suggest me.

Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

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

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...
