Re: [MW:25738] Why x-ray are use for lower thickness

Hi,
BS EN 1435 specified about the selection of source (permit). Please find the extracted pages for your reference. Since I dont have BS EN ISO 17636 , I refer from BS EN 1435.

Hello Everyone,
 
I think some back to basics/fundamentals are required to understand which way to proceed, X-Ray or Gamma Ray for radiography. Source intensity vs. required contrast/density is always a challenge to any radiographer. Skilled radiographer could easily manipulate those with experience.
 
For a thickness of 4 mm, X-Ray would be the way to go, not the Gamma Ray, due to its high intensity and failure to get the right contrast. If isotopes are to be chosen, certainly it WILL NOT be  not Ir-192
 
This paper highlights all the merits/demerits of both the techniques and is worth reading.
 
Thanks.

Dear Sir's,
I agree that , we get better quality of radiograph in xray.
I only want to discussed that,
1) If we want to talk about radiography quality, then if required IQI is visible, then we can say that minimum defects is visible as required IQI is visible.
Code also says that radiographs quality or acceptance, depends on visibility of require IQI.
2) my another point is that, in which section or code, it is mention, that below particular thickness of material, xray to be use and above that thickness, gamma is allowed. So that we can insist contractor to do the same.
Thanks for response.
Expecting the same.
Regards
Prasad

Dear prem and George sir,

Thanks for reply.
I want to ask that if I use the high sourse ir192 and increase the exposure time i.e. time as required by calculation, can I get the good radiographs and using iqi of din standard.
Our thickness of pipe is below 4mm.
We required genuine and technical reason to insist to contractor.
Requesting for response.

Regards
Prasad

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...
