Re: [MW:24993] P8 material WPS to comply QW 407.2_PWHT temperature_time

By Materials & Welding
why u want 7hrs, as per code it is only 20minutes/inch
I think, u can use ur old pqr , pl ref qw 407.2

Dear Praveen,

Thanks for the input. My specific doubt is still pending. Why should i need to do a new PQR, even  QW 407.1 [b] may be valid,may allow to have WPS revised for PWHT time and temperature?

Another one is what deteriorating effect of long PWHT hold time, since this time is fixed based on the job thickness -  is greater of 7 inch, and its mid section needs to have an acceptable micro structure.

Please clarify.

Thanks,
MANIVANNAN.P

Dear Mani

If you have impact requirements the clause 407,2 also applies , in that case  the requirement of new pqr is needed. 
Secondly the long soaking time of 7 hours , will have some deteriorating effect on ASS, Kindly check that also.

In this case , you need to qualify new PQR. 

Read ASME Section IX QW 407..clauses.

Dear All,


I have a Query.


We have a SMAW-WPS [ASME SEC IX] for material P8/G1 – PQR with CHARPY tested. In this PQR it was post weld heat treated to re solution anneal at 1090 DEG C for 2 Hrs.


Now we have new production weld requirement  on a part of 8 inch thick with PWHT [solution anneal] at temperature 1130 DEG C and soak time of 7 hrs.


Please clarify me, is it acceptable to revise the WPS [with the same PQR] to address PWHT temperature as 1130 DEG C, and time as 7 hrs to utilize for the new production weld.


In doing this I considered QW407.1(b) (2) 'PWHT within specified temperature range' – in this case specified temperature range for solution anneal as 1040 DEG C minimum by ASTM A351, and NO maximum is specified.


I appreciate your response with the intent requirement of QW 407.2


Regards, MANIVANNAN.P

Heat tint (temper) colours on stainless steel surfaces heated in air // Heat tint

By Materials & Welding
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...

Re: [MW:10788] ON PLOT PIPING & OFF PLOT PIPING

By Materials & Welding
Piping systems involved for the flow lines and gathering lines from the well head isolation valve to the production facility or processing plant isolation valve are determined as OFF PLOT. ON PLOT defines piping system in the processing plant and production platform. ANSI/ASME B31.4 applies for off plot piping system. B31.4 allows the use of either API 1104 or ASME section IX (as appropriate). However, occasionally, a very small system such as piping within 500 feet of a processing plant (some client also said 400 feet) may be declared B31.3 rather than B31.4. When B31.3 is invoked, only ASME Section IX is used. before you decide which code to use for welding procedure and/or welder qualification for pipe welding, you have to know the design and construction code applicable to the system. Please read far enough into scope and diagram illustrating the application of either B31.3 and B31.4 hope this helps rgds 2011/4/21 pradip kumar sil < pradipsil@gmail.com > Dear all, ...
