Advanced Modelling and Testing - Thick Sectioned Welded Alloy HCM2S (P23)

This resource links to a document we hold in our system

Abstract:

This document is a report for the project titled 'Advanced Modelling and Testing – Thick Sectioned Welded Alloy HCM2S (P23)'.

The principal aim of the project was to use advanced modelling and testing to extend the size range for which the HCM2S (P23) steel can be fabricated both with and without PWHT. The specific objectives were:
  • To optimise the fabrication of thick section HCM2S utilising practical and efficient welding processes (MMA, FCAW).
  • To thoroughly investigate the welding of HCM2S without PWHT.
  • To model the weld and cross weld mechanical properties of HCM2S both with and without PWHT in order to define cross weld properties.
  • To demonstrate acceptable weldment mechanical properties.
  • Consequently to produce fabrication guidelines for thick section HCM2S both with and without PWHT.

This report is divided into the following sections:
  1. Background
  2. Welding & Weld procedure qualification
  3. Neural network analysis
  4. Service Aged Material
  5. Stress Rupture Testing
  6. Residual Stress Modelling
  7. General Discussion & Conclusions
