3.0 PROCEDURE:

3.1 Pre Heating :

3.1.1 When parts of two different thicknesses are welded together, the preheating requirements

of the thicker shall rule



3.1.2 When parts of two different P numbers are joined together, the material requiring higher

preheat shall govern (please refer Welding Manual for P numbers).

3.1.3 It is recommended to use thermocouples with temperature recorder for recording

pre heating . Where temperature recorder is not possible to use, Preheating shall be

checked using thermal chalk (temperature indicating crayons) prior to start of

welding as well as at frequent intervals during welding

3.1.4 In case of any power interruption during welding, the joint shall be wrapped with dry

thermal insulating blankets to ensure slow and uniform cooling. Requirement of

uninterrupted power supply shall be ensured for materials like P-91, T-91 &

BS EN 10025

3.1.5 Preheating & Post Heating Methods:

3.1.5.1 Preheating & Post Heating shall be applied by any of the methods given below:

a. Electrical resistance heating

b. Induction heating

c. Oxy-acetylene or other gas torches

3.2 Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT):

3.2.1 The method shall be by locally heating a circumferential band including the entire weld

and adjacent area of base metal, by induction or electrical resistance heating.

3.2.2 Heat band for PWHT:

3.2.2.1 For Boilers:

a. When heat treating welded joints in components in the boiler proper, width of the

heated circumferential band (W) on either side of the weld, W = 3 times the width

of the widest part of the weld groove but in no case less than twice the width of

weld at reinforcement.

b. When used in post weld heat treatment in sections - W = 3 times the plate

thickness.

c. For nozzle and other welded attachments - W must be wider than the nozzle or

attachment or 3 times the wall thickness.

3.2.2.2 For Piping:

W = 3 times the wall thickness (of thickest part ) on each side from the centre of the weld. In case of nozzles and attachment welds, the width of the heat band shall extend beyond the nozzle or the attachment wall on each side by at least twice the higher thickness and shall extend completely around the header.



3.2.2.3 Other Pressure Vessels:

Heat bandwidth, placement of thermocouple, preheat and PWHT information shall be

obtained from the supplier.

3.3 Condition of Welded Joints:

3.3.1 The weldment shall be free of grease, oil etc. prior to Pre-Heat / PWHT.

3.4 Temperature Measurement for PWHT:

3.4.1 Post weld heat treatment temperature cycle shall be measured and monitored by use

of thermocouples with calibrated recorders.

3.4.2 The periodicity of calibration of the equipment shall be as per calibration procedure.

3.4.3 Where the soaking temperature is found to be lesser than specified, the PWHT cycle

shall be repeated.

3.4.4 In case of interruption during PWHT, the following actions are to be taken, depending

on the stage during which interruption occurred.

a. Interruption during heating cycle:

- The whole operation to be repeated from the beginning.

b. Interruption during soaking:

- The joint can be treated subsequently for the balance left over soaking

period.

c. Interruption during cooling:

- Ensure slow cooling by covering with insulation to a minimum width of 1.5 times

the outer diameter applied equally about the centre line of weld, till the

temperature reaches around 300°C.

3.5 Thermocouple (t/c) Fixing:

3.5.1 Thermocouples shall be used for recording Post Weld Heat Treatment temperatures.

3.5.1.1 Following are guidelines regarding number and placement of thermocouples:

3.5.1.2 Minimum of two thermocouples per weld joint.

3.5.1.3 Thermocouples located 180° apart.

3.5.1.4 Thermocouples located at top and bottom of weld joint.

3.5.1.5 Thermocouples located at a distance of approximately 1.5 times of the wall thickness

about the centre line of weld.

3.5.1.6 One point of the 6/12 points recorder shall be used for recording ambient temperature.



3.5.2 The following guidelines may be used for attaching thermocouples to job:

a. For capacitor discharge method: Thermocouple elements should be attached

within 6 mm of each other.

b. For other type of t/c: Insert the elements in a SS tube of internal diameter

approximately 6 mm. Apply force on tube and crimp it. Place this t/c and weld the

crimped button to the pipe in area of interest. Do not weld the elements.

c. Insulate the t/c leads suitably and protect t/c ends from direct radiation from

heating elements.

3.5.3 For Bunched Tubes:

3.5.3.1 Where a bunch of closely placed tube welds (e.g. Super Heater / Reheater Coils)

require to be Post Weld Heat Treated, the same shall be grouped together as if they

form a single component.

3.5.3.2 In such cases attachment of a minimum of three thermocouples, two at the end tubes

and one at the middle is recommended.

3.6 Soaking Time:

3.6.1 Wherever not specified the soaking time shall be as per Tables I, II and III.

3.6.2 The following guidelines shall be used to determine the thickness and subsequent

selection of the soaking time of PWHT:

a. For butt welds, the thickness shall be the thickness of the material at the weld.

For bar stock, the thickness shall be the diameter.

b. For fillet welds, the thickness shall be the throat thickness.

c. For partial penetration branch welds, the thickness shall be the depth of the

groove prior to welding.

d. For repairs, the thickness shall be the depth of the groove as prepared for repair

welding.

e. For combination of different welds in a component, the maximum thickness in the definitions given above shall govern.

3.6.3 Soaking time is to be reckoned from the time temperature of the joint crosses the

recommended lower temperature of the cycle, to the time it comes down below the

same recommended lower temperature of the cycle.

3.7 Heating and Cooling Rates:

3.7.1 Wherever not specified, the heating rate above 300°C and cooling rate after soaking

upto 300°C shall be as follows: This is applicable for all materials.

3. GENERAL

1. TESTING OF TEMPERATURE INDICATING CRAYONS

1.0 SCOPE :

1.1 This procedure details the method of batch testing of Temperature indicating Crayons

(Thermal chalks).

2.0 PROCEDURE :

2.1 Setup:

2.1.1 Rig a test heating arrangement including a test pipe/plate heating arrangements with

controls and a calibrated temperature recorder/thermometer.

2.2 Heat the test pipe / plate (specimen) to a temperature 10 lower than the rated

temperature of the thermal chalk in study, monitoring the temperature through

thermometer/recorder.

2.3 Stroke the thermal chalk as close to the sensing point on the specimen.

2.4 Raise the temperature of the specimen gradually up to 10% higher than the rated

temperature of the thermal chalk in study, stroking the thermal chalk on the specimen

during this period.

2.4.1 When the thermal chalk changes to the specified colour or melts (depending on the

type), within ±5 of the rated temperature, the thermal chalk is acceptable.

2.5 Consistent results for 2% of any brand and temperature will qualify the brand for the

rated temperature.

2.6 Where thermal chalks are accepted brand wise, they shall undergo this test at least

once a year.

3.0 RETESTS :

3.1 Any failure in the 2% sample chosen, will call for additional 4% for qualification of the

brand for the rated temperature.

3.2 Where retest results in further non-acceptance, the brand shall stand rejected for the

particular temperature.

4.0 RECORDS :

4.1 Records of testing and brands accepted/rejected including details of calibrated

devices used in the setup shall be maintained.



2. COMPATIBILITY TEST FOR HEAT TREATMENT SYSTEM

1.0 SCOPE :

1.1 This procedure provides for checking the compatibility and accuracy of

thermocouples, compensating cables, temperature recorder, connected in Heat

Treatment (HT) operations at sites.

2.0 HT TEST SYSTEM :

2.1 The thermocouple (type k-chromal-Alumel is generally used at sites) attached to a test

specimen with heating arrangements and controls, compensating cables, a calibrated

temperature recorder rigged together for the test HT system.

2.2 A calibrated (accuracy ±0.5%) direct-reading thermometer (like a digital thermometer

with sensor) is used for verification.

2.0 PROCEDURE :

3.1 Attach the thermocouple as detailed in Chapter I of this manual.

3.2 Raise the temperature of the test specimen to around 200° C and maintain the same.

3.3 Place the sensor of the direct reading thermometer as close to the thermocouple

junction as possible.

3.4 Wait till the temperature is stabilized.

3.5 Note reading of the thermometer and that of the temperature recorder.

3.6 Repeat steps 3.2 to 3.5 for test specimen temperatures of 400° C and 600° C

3.7 Where the temperature read by the temperature recorder is within ±10° C with

respect to the thermometer, the HT system is compatible.

3.7.1 Where the results are not within the tolerance specified above, further tests are to be

repeated to identify the fault either in thermocouple or compensating cable or both.

3.8 Adequate insulation of thermocouple, sensor from direct radiation of heat elements

shall be ensured as a precaution throughout the test.

3.9 This compatibility is recommended for each of the thermocouple available for use; this

procedure validates the thermocouple also.
