UCS-23 Maximum Allowable Stress values:

- When

design metal temp. is below -29C, allowable stress value shall not
exceed those given for 40 C

POST WELD HEAT TREATMENT

UCS-56 POST WELD HEAT TREATMENT (PWHT):

OBJETCIVE:
- TO REDUCE THE RESIDUAL STRESSES AT WELD & HAZ

- TO MODIFY THE MICRO-STRUCTURE (HAZ)

EFFECT:
- SUSCETIBLITIES TO BRITTLE FAILURE
DECREASES.
- RESISTANCE TO STRESS CORROSION
CRACKING INCREASES.

- DIMENSIONAL STABILITIES INCREASES.

PWHT PARAMETER
- HEATING RATE

- SOAKING TEMPERATURE
- COOLING RATE

Part UCS (Continued)

UCS-56 PWHT
-Procedure
- Temp. of furnace shall not exceed 800F(425) at the time of vessel placed
in it.
- Above 425C, rate of heating shall not be more than 400F (222C)/hr,
divided by max. metal thickness of shell or head in inches, but in no
case
more than 222C/hr
- Variation in temp. shall not be more than 250F (139C) within any 4.6m
interval, during heating.
- Variation in temp. shall not be more than 150F(83C) between
highest
and lowest temp. throughout the vessel during holding time.
- No direct impingement of flame on the vessel (to control excessive
oxidation).
-Above 425C, rate of cooling shall not be more than 500F(278C)/hr
divided by max. metal thickness of shell or head in inches, in
furnace, but
in no case more than 278C/hr.
-From 800F(425C) vessel may be cooled in still air.

Part UCS (Continued)

UCS-56 PWHT
-General
- Rate of heating and cooling need not be less than
100F(38C)/hr
- Holding temp./holding time in excess of min. value
may be used.
- Intermediate PWHT need not confirm to table UCS-56
- Holding time need not be continuous. It may be
addition of time of
multiple PWHT cycles.
- When P numbers are different, higher PWHT
temperature shall be
used.
- When non pressure part is welded to pressure part,
PWHT of pressure
part shall control.
-Exemptions given are not permitted when PWHT is a
service
requirement.
