Re: [MW:30594] Filler Wire Selection For SA240 TYP 304/404L Plate For pressure Vessel Welding requirement Ferrite No.- 3-5 FN

By Materials & Welding

# Just asking

Why the LNG fuel tank (Cryogenic service) design considered as per ASME instead of API 620 !


Ferrite in weld deposits is not essential as per code. when required by client, Only the manufacturer can give compliance letter to suit your requirements.

as example, screen shot from SFA 5.9

it will be very difficult to achieve your required ferrite in this material and std filler. Ask manufacturer for your requirement.

1. Check with the Welding consumable  manufacturer whether they produce ER308L with your Ferrite requirement.
2. Check for ER308 consumable, as your service condition being low temperature application, by proper welding condition sensitization could be avoided and higher carbon produces a more austenitic structure.

If the above 2 conditions do not work then you can try other alternative.

Thanks & Regards

Dear Experts

 To obtain  Ferrite No. 3-5 FN After Welding of SA 240 TYP 304/304L Plate material which filler wire shall be used keeping below requirement under consideration :-

Mechanical Requirement :- As per ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code.

Additional mechanical requirement Impact @ -196 degree celsius :-  minimum Lateral Expansion 0.38 mm. 

Welding Process : GTAW/SAW.

Service Type :- Cryogenic Service ( LNG Fuel Tank).

Approximate Job Dimension ;- THK 12 mm DIA. 5 meter Length - 30 meter.

Home Work Done :- I wish to do PQR With ER 310  Wire  ( Cost Approx INR  550 Rs/Kg ).
                  OR With ER 320 ( BUT here I have doubt that may Be ferrite obtained after welding Varies from 0-3 FN. Cost is also a constraint Approx INR 3000 Rs/Kg).

Kindly Guide if any other filler wire is available  & work done in past to obtain fulfill above requirement.

Regards
Atul Jha.

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...
