Re: [MW:23161] CTOD AND CHARPY TEST

By Materials & Welding
Dear Alan,

I think there is a misunderstanding about my reply. I didn't say that the test is based on cyclically loading of the specimen. 

Also this is true that the mechanism of inducing the crack is by fatigue loading type and this will continued by the three point bending for studying the behavior of the material under loading. 

But after the test we use the results to calculate the critical defect/crack size and in most cases this parameter uses in cyclically loading conditions (this was my viewpoint). 

Also the results may use in FFS evaluations or it may use just for characterization of a material (whether metallic or non-metallic).

Regards

The reply below is incorrect: CTOD is not related to cyclic stresses. Both Charpy and CTOD measure fracture toughness. However Charpy is empirical whereas CTOD is a method of measuring material toughness such that the results can be used in fracture mechanics calculations to determine the criticality of material flaws of a known size in that material and corresponding microstructure. CTOD has its notch sharpened by fatigue cracking, but that is to give a very start initiator for the test only. The specimen should be the full thickness of the component to which the test relates, and the test temperature should be the minimum design temperature.

 

CTOD testing is inherently more complex and is much more expensive that Charpy testing and requires laboratories which are rather more specialised than those which can perform Charpy.

Charpy test is type of test to measure the resistance of a material to shock type stresses whether in room or minus temperatures. 

 

CTOD (Crack Tip Opening Displacement) is for measuring the resistance of material to cyclic type of stresses whether in room or minus temperatures.

 

So the main difference is the type of load which used during the test. So the specimens preparation and test procedures are different.

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, ...
