Re: [MW:23917] Bulge P-91 Pipe after PWHT

Dear Dennis,

Pls find the PWHT chart & in 10" we used two nos of thermocouple with equal distance i.e 180 degree. We checked the hardness in the weldment as well as HAZ zone & found 210 to 238 HB but in bulge zone ( Parent Material ) which is 140 mm away from weldment is coming 155 to 175 HB.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Pradip

Hi Pradap,

 

Please email us a drawing of the heater and thermocouple arrangement that was employed for your PWHT, along with a copy of your temperature-time chart.  Both are needed to help diagnose your failure.

It is not possible to do PWHT horizontally because spool piece is welded at location

Mr shanmugan,

Job is kept in vertical condition where and when the job is heated locally the material softens  at that particular area where all the weight of the job is acted on that softened area which leads to bulging locally

Preferred to do PWHT HORIZONTALLY

Both end closed or not during PWHT?

Dear Expert,

In P91 Material ( HRSG header Joint ) after pwht one joint is bulge.We did  Preheating ,Welding , Post Heating,& PWHT in proper way.

Can anybody explain why this bulge occurs & remedy.

During fit-up inspection & weld visual inspection all round the joint is perfect but after PWHT pipe is bulge 140 mm away from the   weld ment
