Dear sir,
As all of you knows that in high temperature application piping, we used heat tracing below insulation to maintained the heat or to avoid the heat loss.
I want to know that in low temperature application piping line, what to do ? (in place of heat tracing)below cold insulation(PUF)...
Dear sir,
As per API 650, differential settlement is 13mm per 10 metres of circumference.
Does it means that 13mm on every quadrant or increase from qudrant to quadrant.
Example: For 20 metre Dia Tank, from 0 to 180 degree, max differential settelment is 39mm.
Pls clear.
Ask if any doubt in...
Dear sir,
If we are going to weld the 6mm and 20mm thk carbon steel plates, with suitable electrode.
Then, which plate will bend more?
Whether, 6mm or 20mm plate?.
Normally, we say that 6mm will bend more.
But my question is, in 20mm plate our metal deposition is more than as compared to 6mm...
Dear experts,
As we Know that, quenching is process of rapid cooling.
Annealing is the process of heating to particular temperature and allowed to cooled in furnace.
My query is for stainless steel, normally done solution annealing, In stainless steel also we do the Rapid...
as you said it get sensitised at over 750oC, and our welding temp is more than that.
Means is it possibilities to occurs in every weld or when it will occur ?, how we come to know that is it happening or not?
What type of test we have to conduct to check the sensitisation in weld?
Thanks for the clarify about ferrite phase range.
But why they not shown 316L, however, shown 304, 304L, 304H, 304N.
Why not 316L. Any special reason?
This is most common used material.
Dear sir,
If we see the TWI- Job knoweldge 103, there is table as shown below.
Table 1 Typical compositions of some austenitic stainless steel alloys
ASTM No.
(type) Composition wt% Microstructure
C (max) Si (max) Mn (max) Cr Ni Mo Others Austenite - A
Ferrite - F

Dear sir,
As we know that sensetization problems arises in mostly 316, 316L, 304 ( 3XX) series.
And sensetization usually occurs at 450 to 850oC.
My query is that during welding, temperature goes to 1020oC approx.
Then how sensetization occurs in weld metal when every weld goes through the...
