Re: [MW:31028] PQR shall be tested in Min & Max PWHT (3 Cycle minimum simulation) condition.

Dear Vijay,

The above query is related to me also, can you please explain in detail.

And I have qualified PQR, please refer to I have included the two different PQR range.

Material Both PQR ASTM A106 Gr B

Thickness Range - 5 mm to 25 mm

First PQR Range -

POST WELD HEAT TREATMENT( QW-407)

TEMPERATURE RANGE	630 ±10° C
SOAKING PERIOD	190Min
HEATING RATE	190°C/Hours Max
COOLING RATE	190°C/Hours Max

Second PQR Range -

TEMPERATURE RANGE TP1 - 638 ±10° C TP2 - 635 ±10° C

SOAKING PERIOD: TP1 - 72 min TP2 - 189 min

HEATING RATE: TP1 -170°C/Hours and TP2-171°C

COOLING RATE: TP1- 163°C/Hours and TP2-106°C/h

But it is not clear to me how to confirm if mechanical properties are ok after just one PWHT ( for sure Tensile St. and Y. S. will be ok, since values are greater, but hardness test?

Please explain to me about the mechanical test and 3 cycles PWHT. Where I require test coupons for first PQR.

Thanks and Regards

Kiran

Hi Kunal,

3 simulation cycle is required with considering future service repair.

You need to prove that after considering 3 simulation PWHT cycle the minimum tensile requirement can be achievable . But you need to check the base metal also,

Is the base metal tested/qualified with 3 simulation cycle?

Thank you

Vijay Katkar

Dear Sir's

Client has specified the requirement for testing the PQR in Min & Max PWHT (3 Cycle simulation) condition. As we had pre-qualified PQR with one cycle of 2 Hours soaking. So please suggest how to comply with the requirement & what does this "3 cycle simulation" exactly means?

Regards
Kunal Srivastava

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, ...
