Re: [MW:24405] RE: 24355] Impact Test & cooling Rate-Preheating (carbon steel)

in welding, lower thickness will have slow cooling  when compared to higher thickness weld which will have fast cooling rate, that is why to slowdown , preheat is applied to avoid hard structure which inferior for toughness properties

One more addition to Alan's good comment:
In case of lower thicknesses, the cooling rate tends to increase and may lead to martensite formation. But it is not so slow and sustained a cooling rate as to promote grain growth/reduced ductility, as you are allowed to weld between preheat & interpass temperatures.

Dear all,
 
Background: 
impact testing is more critical for less(low)thickness than higher thickness.
 
Reason  : 
fine grain form during fast cooling and course grain form during slow cooling.
 
Question is:
Preheating use to lower the cooling rate for higher thickness.
So lower the cooling rate means form the course grain,course grain lower the toughness.
 
Preheating contributing to lower the toughness?

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...

The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams for predicting ferrite levels in austenitic stainless steel welds

Introduction Ferrite is important in avoiding hot cracking in during cooling from welding of austenitic stainless steels. 'Constitution diagrams' are used to predict ferrite levels from the composition by comparing the effects of austenite and ferrite stabilising elements. The Schaeffler and Delong diagrams are the original methods of predicting the phase balances in austenitic stainless steel welds. Nickel and chromium equivalents A 'nickel equivalent' is calculated for the austenite stabilising elements and a 'chromium equivalent' ferrite stabilising elements. These are used as the axes for the diagrams, which show the compositional equivalent areas where the phases austenite, ferrite, martensite (and mixtures of these) should be present. Although intended to show the phase balance of weld fillers, these diagrams can also be used to illustrate the phase balance of the 'parent' material. There are different diagrams for dif...
