    Simple discussion on standards about post-weld heat treatment of 347H pressure pipe for hydrogen production unit
    Zhang Yucheng, Jia Haomei
    Heat Treatment of Metals    2023, 48 (1): 270-276.   doi:10.13251/j.issn.0254-6051.2023.01.048
    Abstract54)      PDF (607KB)(36)      
    Classification of post-weld heat treatment of the 347H stainless steel was introduced, and the status quo of domestic and foreign standards of post-weld heat treatment for austenitic stainless steels was analyzed. At present, domestic and foreign standards have different provisions on the post-welding heat treatment of the 347H stainless steel pipes. The NB/T 10068—2018 standard proposes that the operating temperature and thickness range should be used as the implementation conditions of post-weld heat treatment of the 347H stainless steel, which provides guidance for the post-welding heat treatment of the 347H pressurized pipe used in hydrogen production plant and has certain reference significance. But some of the provisions of the standard are not perfect, including some problems in ferrite measurement sequence, ferrite content qualified value and ferrite measurement method. So it is suggested to adjust the measurement of ferritic content of weld to before post-weld heat treatment, remove the lower limit of ferrite number of 3 FN after solution and stabilization heat treatment, add the qualified value requirement of ferrite content of E(R)16.8.2 cladding metal, and define the detection method of ferrite content. At the same time, the NB/T 10068—2018 standard is not perfect on the implementation conditions of post-welding stabilization heat treatment, so it is suggested that the exemption conditions for post-welding heat treatment should be set in combination with engineering practice experience and foreign advanced standards. For thin-walled workpieces with operating temperature ≥500 ℃ and welded joints with small constraint degree, the post-welding heat treatment should be exempted, so as to maintain the scientific and advanced nature of the standard. The NB/T 10068—2018 standard does not fully disclose the related patent information, thus the patent information disclosure should be done well subsequently to prevent intellectual property hijacking of standards.

    Reasonableness discussion on hardness upper limit of normalized and tempered T22 steel tubes specified in ASME SA-213M
    Lai Xianhong, Zeng Hui, Yang Huachun, Zhang Wei
    Heat Treatment of Metals    2021, 46 (3): 239-242.   doi:10.13251/j.issn.0254-6051.2021.03.046
    Abstract73)      PDF (541KB)(20)      
    Simulated normalized and tempered tests with different parameters for T22 steel tubes were performed. The results show that it is very easy for hardness of normalized and tempered T22 steel tubes to exceed the hardness upper limit (163 HBW/170 HV/85 HRB) specified in ASME SA-213M standard, and it is difficult to avoid the spheroidizing microstructure even if the hardness constrainedly reduced to below the hardness upper limit according to special heat treatment parameters, and it is believed that the raising of hardness upper limit for normalized and tempered T22 steel tubes shall be considered. Meanwhile, the suitable raising extent of hardness upper limit is discussed, and further suggestions are that the hardness upper limit for normalized and tempered T22 steel tube specified in SA-213M should be raised from 163 HBW/170 HV/85 HRB to 179 HBW/190 HV/89 HRB.
