Re: [MW:24540] PWHT of branch connections.//B31.3

Dear Hareesh

Yes, it is. guidance for placement of thermocouples can be reffered to para 6.6.4 of AWS D10.10

control thermocouples  on larger pipe and monitoring thermocouples  on smaller branch connection

Dear Sir,

As per ASME B31.3, for branch connections, PWHT is to be done for the entire circumference of main pipe. Is there any exceptions/code interpretations for that, in Carbon steel material or Alloy steel material (SA335 Gr P9,95)?

For example: A 3/4" branch is done on the main pipe of 60" dia. As per the code requirement, the entire 60" dia is to be wrapped with coil and PWHT is to be done.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
