Re: [MW:34096] Forming marks on Dish End of pressure vessel

I think 3rd Party Who released this Vessel must be contacted to confirmed their out put. It end surface area shall be smooth.

In 22 years of experience, Myself alone inspected more than 1k U stamped pressure vessels but never encountered as such enclosed. Strange ! Better to consult some reputed third party agencies.

Hi,

One of our pressure vessel manufacturer recently supplied Oil and Gas separator having distinct forming marks on dish ends. Supplier claims that those marks are aesthetic and do not hamper vessel performance. Photo is attached herewith.

Being the end user we are not in position to make final decision whether to accept the pressure vessel with distinct marks on dish ends and put under operation or not. The pressure vessel is designed as per ASME sec VIII Div I and vessel is U Stamped. The vessel is hydro tested and holds good. ASME inspector has not commented anything on forming marks or pressing marks in their release note.

Please guide should we accept it or to ask supplier to rectify the same or any section of ASME code confirms non acceptance of same in pressure vessel.

Regards,
Ameer Basha

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...
