Re: [MW:25924] PWHT T-T Cycle Range for WPS with Impact Requirement

Dear Experts

for e.g, PWHT of 30mm thk is heat treated at 610 degC for 150min then maximum soaking temp would be 150*(100/80) =  187.5min, if supplementary variables are considered
Please correct if I misinterpreted QW-407.2

Dear sir,
if supplementary essential not required,then can we use existing 3 times PWHT cycle PQR for production weld thickness 25mm with SR cycle 1 hour.

1) What will be the effect of soaking time range higher on production weld if same existing 40mm thk PQR used on 25mm production weld with same soaking time as per PQR..

As per QW-407.2 .Soaking time and temp equivalent or at least 80% aggregate of encounter production weld.Soaking time not restricted for exceeding higher side.
please correct me if my interpretation is wrong.

your range in case impact test is a requirement starts from 16 mm and not from 5mm (since your test coupon is 40 mm)
Assuming the test coupon was Pno1 then the mandatory holding time was 1,6 hours and not 3 hours. Since you have used much more time than required you have to requalify your WPS

Dear Sir,

If we have PQR with PWHT for T-T 610°C & 3 Hrs. for Thickness 40mm as per ASME Sec. IX. for SMAW. Consequently we have WPS for Range of 5 to 200mm Thickness (PQR is tested for Impact at -27°C).

Now the Confusion is can we use same PQR to Prepare WPS for 25mm thick Production weld with T-T 610°C & 1Hrs if supplementary essentials are applicable? Now as per Table QW253 & QW 407.2 the production weld PWHT T-T cycle essentially Equivalent or at least 80%.

QW-407.2 A change in the postweld heat treatment
(see QW-407.1) temperature and time range
The procedure qualification test shall be subjected to
PWHT essentially equivalent to that encountered in the
fabrication of production welds, including at least 80%
of the aggregate times at temperature(s). The PWHT total
time(s) at temperature(s) may be applied in one heating
cycle.




Thanks & Regards,

Bhavesh

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...

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

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, ...
