Re: [MW:25137] PWHT

By Materials & Welding

Hi ,
Well ,all your residual stresses would have been removed but check for the hardness value and  impact toughness if it  is an criteria . Basically your mechanical properties of the weld are affected .

Hi!
Selecting the Time and temp for PWHT is important  as it affetcts the mechanical properties
For which LM (Larsen Miller parameters ) helps
Increase in soaking time beyond certain limit deteriorates the mechanical properties
e.g. As per LM parameters  PWHt soaking temp of 650C with  2hrs soaking time is equivalent of 9hrs soaking time at 620C (even though code says for P1 soaking temp min 593c to below AC 1 )
Therefore you can imagine the importance of PWHT temp and time

Dear experts

My query is what happens if the soaking time during PWHT is increased beyond the specified minimum time. I know section 8 days minimum soaking time only.

Suppose if required soaking time is 2.5 hours and actual soaking time is 5 hours

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...

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

By Materials & Welding
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...
