Re: [MW:34105] SA266 GR4N 4 Cycle SPWHT

Hi, 
You are correct, Minimum refers to the one cycle for which this part will expose until final work shop PWHT. hence mill test certificate shall include this. 
Max. SPWHT, refers to additional cycles of heat treatment that are reserved for future repairs during equipment lifetime. 
Again, these simulated no. Of cycles shall be specified in MTC. 

The idea is we need to make sure that steel mechanical properties are not compromised upon exposure to multiple repairs (i e 4 cycles in your case). 

One could say, if steel is subjected to 4 cycles and is ok, then it should by defacto be good for one cycle, yet, this is wrong assumption cause mechanical problems and microstructure of materials varies accordingly based on no. Of cycles for which material will expose. This is apparent in alloy steel and especially for impact test values as an example. 

In your case, this forged CS with properties before PWHT can be understood to be " as forged" condition (i.e. Without any mill PWHT) which is not address your simulated min condition. 

I assume that you have to speak with your forging mill so that they expose one item to your minimum PWHT that defined by you as MFR and then they should include both. Min and Max.

Hi 

Client has required 4 cycle for SA266 GR4N, They requested the certificate shall included all required test at both conditions, min and max simulated PWHT Cycles,
Our forging mill has issued MTC with mechanical property, before PWHT and after PWHT But they commented " test after SPWHT performed after 4 cycles(max condition-i think after 4 times we mentioned the result as after SPWHT) and missing test after min condition"(I think there is missing test result of min SPWHT condition)

Could anyone give us idea how to solve this issue and what test result shall be added 

Can we say min and max SPWHT? We performed 4 times of SPWHT as client's request.. 

what you guys think min SPWHT condition?

Regards,
ham

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, ...
