11
NORMALIZING • The steel is heated to 40° C above the upper
critical temperature followed by cooling in the still air.
To achieve
• Uniform structure
• Change in Mechanical properties,– UTS, YS & Elongation– Hardness – Impact properties
• Refined grains
![Page 12: Pwht1](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061503/555b0edad8b42ae0418b5245/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
12
ANNEALING
• Steel is heated 10 to 50°C above the upper critical temperature and held for the desired length of time followed by very slow cooling within the furnace
To achieve:
• Softness & better ductility• Stresses free material – Stress generated due to
mechanical working / previous HT
• Uniform property through out the material
![Page 13: Pwht1](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061503/555b0edad8b42ae0418b5245/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
13
SOLUTION ANNEALING
• Austenitic Stainless steels is heated to above 1050°C and held for the desired time followed by fast cooling to room temperature within few minutes by quenching / blowing the air.
Solution annealing is done on stainless steel and non ferrous alloys
• To soften the material
• To remove carbide precipitation formed at grain boundaries during manufacturing process ( SS )
• To improve Corrosion Resistance
![Page 14: Pwht1](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061503/555b0edad8b42ae0418b5245/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

23
PRINCIPLE OF THERMOCOUPLE
The basic principle of thermoelectric thermometry is that a thermocouple develops an emf which is a function of the difference in temperature of its measuring junction & reference junction. If the temperature of reference junction is known, the temperature of the measuring junction can be determined by measuring the emf generated in the circuit.
![Page 24: Pwht1](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061503/555b0edad8b42ae0418b5245/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
THERMOCOUPLE MATERIAL REQUIREMENT
1. High coefficient of thermal emf.
2. Continuously increasing relation of emf to temperature over a long range.
3. Freedom from phase changes or other phenomenon giving rise to discontinuity in temperature emf relationships.
4. Resistance to oxidation, corrosion and contamination.
5. Homogeneity and reproducibility to fit an establish temperature & emf relationship.
SPEED OF RESPONSE MAY BE IMPROVED AND RADIATION & CONDUCTION ERRORS MAY BE REDUCED BY THE USE OF SMALL DIAMETER THERMOCOUPLES.

CODE EXTRACT FOR HEAT TREATMENT( 1 ) The soak band shall contain the weld, heat affected zone and a portion of base metal adjacent to the weld being heat treated. The minimum width of this volume is the widest width of weld plus 1T or 2 inches, whichever is less, on each side or end of the weld. The term ‘T’ is the nominal thickness.( 2 ) The operation of postweld heat treatment shall be performed either by heating the vessel as a whole in an enclosed furnace or heating the vessel in more than one heat in a furnace, provided the overlap of the heated sections of the vessel is at least 5 feet ( 1.5m). When this procedure is used, the portion outside of the furnace shall be shielded so that the temperature gradient is not harmful. The cross section where the vessel projects from the furnace shall not intersect a nozzle or other structural discontinuity.
![Page 62: Pwht1](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061503/555b0edad8b42ae0418b5245/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
62
CODE EXTRACT FOR HEAT TREATMENT( 3 ) When the vessel is required to be postweld heat treated, and it is not practicable to postweld heat treat the completed vessel as a whole or in two or more heats; any circumferential joints not provisionally heat treated may be thereafter locally postweld heat treated by heating such joints by any appropriate means that will assure the required uniformity.( 4 ) While carrying out local postweld heat treatment, the soak band shall extend around the full circumference. The portion outside the soak band shall be protected so that the temperature gradient is not harmful.( 5 ) Heating a circumferential band containing nozzles or other welded attachments in such a manner that the entire band shall be brought up uniformly to the required temperature and held for the specified time.

CODE EXTRACT FOR HEAT TREATMENT( 6 ) Where more than one pressure vessel or more pressure vessel part are postweld heat treated in one furnace charge, thermocouples shall be placed on vessels at the bottom, center, and top of the charge or in other zones of possible temperature variation so that the temperature indicated shall be true temperature for all vessels or parts in those zones. ( 7 ) Postweld heat treatment, When required, shall be done before the hydrostatic test and after any welded repairs. A preliminary hydrostatic test to reveal leaks prior to PWHT is permissible.( 8 ) For pressure vessels or parts of pressure vessels being post weld heat treated in a furnace charge, it is the greatest weld thickness in any vessel or vessel part which has not previously been postweld heat treated.

( 8 contd...) The nominal thickness is the total depth of the weld exclusive of any permitted weld
reinforcement. For groove weld, the nominal thickness is the depth of the groove. For fillet welds, the nominal thickness is the throat dimension. If a fillet weld is used in conjunction of groove weld, the nominal thickness is the depth of the groove or the throat dimension, Whichever is greater. For stud welds, the nominal thickness shall be the diameter of the stud.( 9 ) For P–1 material ( carbon steel), minimum holding temperature during postweld heat treatment shall be 1100 Deg. F ( 593 Deg.c).
