Re: [MW:24023] Re: PQR - WPS - PWHT P91 to CS

Lower critical temp for CS is 723 degree Celsius, how u can allow it to 740

THANKS & BEST REGARDS,

Greetings.
In my view the CS temp.attachments can be welded with Gr 91 mtrl.but not job mtrl.as rightly stated by Pradip & Zakeria.

Dear experts,

  Need your support.

We performed one PQR P91 grade ( P number 15E) to Carbon steel (P number 1) welded GTAW/SMAW ER90S-B9 / E9015-B9, 11mm thickness, PWHT @ 740°C - 40 minutes.

PQR and related WPS already approved by our client. but the Owner consulting agency sent to us some comments :

1- No possible to weld P91 directly to CS shall add transition material P11 grade : We answer that it's design issue and i requested some explain / calculation from design.

2- Should use filler metal compatible with lower grade material : i answer that can make choice of  filler metal between to material grades (included) so we can weld with lower, heigher or iontermediate filler metal when mechanical properties is ok and don't have ebjection from project spec.

3- this is the main issue : PWHT @ 740 °c is heigher than lower critical temperature for CS so we must perform PWHT in intermediate Temperature : in this case if will do like this WPS will not supported by Prepared PQR;

PQR approved by Client and weld already done, i propose to perform hardness test, PMI and metallographic replic in production ( just one weld) to confirm.


Need your support .



Regards.

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...
