RE: [MW:31153] CS with Duplex SS (S31803) clad vessel PWHT?

Hello Sourav,

 

I'm not sure what you're trying to convey. However what you're writing does not make any sense at all.

Pressure vessels are not cookie cutters, they're serious and dangerous equipment.  You can't just weld, put inside the furnace and attach a few thermocouples…….. and be done…

I'm attached to this forum for last 10 years and have initiated and contributed many in-depth  technical issues.

If you're interested to know something, let me know. I'll gladly  help you.

Thanks.

i am not getting why you are sooo afraid of cladding with cs .you have to do nothing especial for this simply put your job in  close furnance and attached weld but remember if u are attaching thermocouple inside of vessel also than dont weld it at ss plate ,attach it at weld.i i did firing in furnace not inside the remember if its not clad than i have a option of inside firing of vessel

A few questions on this interesting  topic  as well as  on the suggestions imparted as below.

 

  • How  do you perform local PWHT on a fully fabricated pressure vessel? If that's the case , every weld joint (L-Seam, C-Seam, Nozzle Welds ) has to be individually wrapped by heating coils. Is that possible  after fabrication of entire vessel?
  • Restoration of Duplex clad is usually done after barrier layer by 309L.  2209 electrode/filler  may be used  also right from the first layer for restoration of clad.  
  • PWHT of 51 mm thick Duplex clad vessel would encompass the following PWHT cycle easily:-
  1. Ambient to 300 Deg C-Unlimited heating, 300 Deg C /Hr. Hold at 300 Deg c for uniform equalization of  temperature
  2. From 300 Deg C to 600 Deg C – ROH 40-50 Deg C /Hr- would involve- easily 4 hrs of heating cycle
  3. Soak 2 600-620 Deg C- for 2 hrs easily

Hence depending on the size of the vessel, a heating cycle of 7-8 hrs easily would be required between 300- Deg C  to 600 Deg C. Same would be case for cooling . Hence a PWHT .stress relief temperature @ 600 Deg C  could be quite harmful. Typically 300-700 Deg C is the formation range of various intermetallic phases for Duplex S.S.

 

It would be nice to know the decision taken by the originator of this query , for education of all concerned.

 

Thanks.

Hi,

You can realize the dissimilar welding (CS 516 Gr.70) + Cladding (S31803) with PWHT following these steps:

-As the base metal of CS have 51 mm of thickness, apply preheating about 175 °C and maintain it during the welding.   Use filler for CS type E/7018 (depending welding process).

 

-Buttering the CS with austenitic filler metal (e.g., E/309L) and remove clad S31803 with grinding, 2" side and side of the weld joint. Realize localized PWHT over the weld metal and HAZ only, about 625 °C during one and half hours.

             - Weld the S31803 clad using duplex filler like E/2209.

any experience on duplex clad vessel PWHT?

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...

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

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...
