Hi Vishwas,

 

PWHT cycle ,T& T, rate of heating /rate of cooling should be as per the piping design codes, e.g B-31.1 or 31.3 or others as  specified in the drawings or specifications.

 

AWS D-10.10 should be followed also as a guiding document for setting up equipments, e.g, heating pads, thermocouples,.....to facilitate the PWHT. In fact you need to to look at D-10.10 for detailed  guidelines, assuming these pipes would not be heat treated in in furnace.

 

Thanks

For long piping(Carbon steel, alloy steel), butt welding of large diameter(219mm OD TO 606mm OD, THK - 18.26mm to 42 mm )pipes is carried out. 

For PWHT of these butt welds, what are the parameters shall be considered for effective PWHT?
