API 5L X65 배관의 모재 기리 및 원주방향, 심용착금속, 원주용착금속에 대한 고주기피로시험 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 모재 길이방향이 원주방향보다 항복강도 및 항복비가 높게 나타난 압연 방향에 따라 피로특성이 다르게 나타났고, 항복비가 작아질수록 피로강도가 작아졌다. (2) 모재의 피로강도는 항복강도보다 높게 나타났지만 용착금속의 피로강도는 낮게 나타났다. (3) 용착금속은 모재보다 항복강도 및 인장강도가 상당히 높았지만 피로강도는 오히려 작게 나타났다.

This study is on the constant-current stress corrosion test, related to the load stress, in both the welded and non-welded zones of high tensile strength steel that is used for natural gas transmission. The surface corrosion pattern of the welded zone of API 5L-X65 specimens for natural gas transmission showed general corrosion and narrow pitting, and the pitting was increased with load stress. Initially, the average relative electrode potential and the average relative current of the high tensile strength steel, used for natural gas transmission specimens, were decreased rapidly, and the average relative electrode potential was higher and the average relative current was lower in welded zone, compared to base metal. The average relative electrode potential was decreased with load stress, and the average relative current was somewhat increased by increasing the load stress. The corrosion rate was less in welded zone, compared to base metal, and the corrosion rate was decreased by increasing the load stress.

The inhibition ability of N,N-bis(2,4-dihydroxyhydroxybenzaldehyde)-1,3-Propandiimine (DHBP) as a schiff base against the corrosion of API-5L-X65 steel in 1 M HCl solution was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, potentiodynamic polarization and scanning electron microscopy. Electrochemical impedance studies indicated that DHBP inhibited corrosion by blocking the active corrosion sites. The inhibition efficiency increased with increasing inhibitor concentrations. EIS data was analysed to equivalent circuit model and showed that the charge transfer resistance of steel increased with increasing inhibitor concentration whilst the double layer capacitance decreased. The adsorption of this compound obeyed the Langmuir adsorption isotherm. Gibbs free energy of adsorption was calculated and indicated that adsorption occurred through physical and spontaneous process. The corrosion inhibition mechanism was studied by potential of zero charge. Polarization studies indicated that DHBP retards both the cathodic and anodic reactions through adsorption on steel surface. Scanning electron microscopy was used to study the steel surface with and without inhibitor.

Apparent mechanical properties in structural components can be different from the initially designed values due to the formation of the residual stress in metal forming and welding. Therefore, the evaluation of residual stress has great importance in the reliability diagnosis of structural components. A nondestructive continuous indentation technique has been proposed to evaluate various strength concerning mechanical properties from the analysis of load-depth curve. In this study, quantitative residual stress estimation on API X65 welded joints for natural gas pipeline was performed by analyzing the variation of indentation loading curve by residual stress through a new proposed theoretical model. The residual stress from the indentation method was compared with that from the saw-cutting method.

세계적으로 천연가스의 사용은 높은 효율을 가진 청정에너지로서의 장점으로 인하여 꾸준히 증가하는 추세이며, 국내에서도 급격한 경제규모의 증대와 함께 사용량이 증가하고 있다. 천연가스 배관 용접부는 금속학적 및 역학적으로 파괴에 영향을 미치는 인자들을 다양하게 가지고 있는데, 이들 인자들에 의하여 파괴역학적 인성의 열화가 발생함과 동시에 파괴시험 결과의 해석에 많은 어려움이 유발된다. 본 연구에서는 우선 국내 천연가스의 주 배관으로 사용되고 있는 API 5L X65 등급의 고장력강 용접부의 파괴역학적 안전성을 평가하기 위한 목적으로, 실제 원주 용접부와 심 용접부의 파괴인성 시험을 수행하여 미세조직의 변화를 중심으로 미시적 혹은 거시적인 관점에서의 금속학적 인자가 파괴인성에 미치는 영향에 대해 평가하였다.

The infrastructures such as offshore, bridges, power plant, oil and gas piping and aircraft operate in a harsh environment during their service life. Structural integrity of engineering components used in these industries is paramount for the reliability and economics of operation. Two regression models based on the concept of Gaussian process regression (GPR) and Minimax probability machine regression (MPMR) were developed to predict stress intensity factor range (𝚫K). Both GPR and MPMR are in the frame work of probability distribution. Models were developed by using the fatigue crack growth data in MATLAB by appropriately modifying the tools. Fatigue crack growth experiments were carried out on Eccentrically-loaded Single Edge notch Tension (ESE(T)) specimens made of API 5L X65 Grade steel in inert and corrosive environments (2.0% and 3.5% NaCl). The experiments were carried out under constant amplitude cyclic loading with a stress ratio of 0.1 and 5.0 Hz frequency (inert environment), 0.5 Hz frequency (corrosive environment). Crack growth rate (da/dN) and stress intensity factor range (𝚫K) values were evaluated at incremental values of loading cycle and crack length. About 70 to 75% of the data has been used for training and the remaining for validation of the models. It is observed that the predicted SIF range is in good agreement with the corresponding experimental observations. Further, the performance of the models was assessed with several statistical parameters, namely, Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Coefficient of Efficiency (E), Root Mean Square Error to Observation's Standard Deviation Ratio (RSR), Normalized Mean Bias Error (NMBE), Performance Index (ρ) and Variance Account Factor (VAF).

본 연구에서는 X65강의 용접부에 전기화학적 방법으로 수소를 장입한 이후에, 소형펀치시험편을 사용하여 기계적 강도를 평가하고 파면을 분석하였다. 모재부의 경우와는 다르게 용접부에서는 수소장입정도에 따라 강도저하가 민감하게 나타나는 거동을 보였다. 수소장입시 전류밀도, 온도, 장입시간의 변화에 따라 강도 및 연신율 등의 기계적 성질이 민감하게 변화하였다. 특히, 전류밀도가 높고 장입시간이 길어짐에 따라서 강도의 저하가 크게 나타났으나, 상대적으로 전해질 온도의 영향은 비교적 작게 나타났다. 또한 주사전자현미경을 통해 관찰한 시험편의 파면에서 수소침투된 표면근처의 재료에서 취성파면이 발견되었으며, 이는 강도의 저하 거동과 일치되는 경향이다. 수소취화 거동 평가 연구를 위해 본 연구에서 채택한 시험시스템은 재현성이 높게 나타나고 있으며, 이 방법을 이용한 재료의 강도평가 결과 매우 높은 신뢰성을 보이고 있다. 따라서 소형펀치시험과 전기분극법을 이용함으로써 X65강 용접부의 수소취화에 의한 강도변화를 민감하게 평가할 수 있었다. 산출된 데이터의 통계적인 처리를 통해 강도변화값을 예측할 수 있었음도 보였다.

본 논문에서는 파이프라인에서 사용되는 API 5L 철강의 중심선 편석에 대해 다루고자 한다. Mn/S와 Nb 그리고 C는 파이프 두께 방향으로의 중심선에서 편석되는 요소로 알려져 있다. Mn은 일반적으로 긴 점성상을 이루는 S를 동반한다. 중심선의 미세조직은 MnS와 산소를 포함한 Nb/Ti로 구성되어 있는데 이 중심선 지역의 편석효과를 OM, SEM/EDS 및 마이크로비커스 경도기로 분석하였다. Mn, Nb 및 C는 오스테나이트가 페라이트 또는 마르텐사이트로 변태하는 것을 억제시키는 원소이다. 이러한 원소들은 마르텐사이트의 한 종류인 베이나이트 미세조직을 만들 수 있는데 이는 용융 및 열처리에서 얻어지는 중심선과 매트릭스 간의 원소 편석과는 다르다.

Electrical Resistance Welding (ERW) on a longitudinal seam-welded pipe has been extensively used in oil and gas pipelines. It is well known that the weld zone commonly suffers from grooving corrosion in ERW pipes. In this paper, the grooving corrosion performances of API X65 grade non-sour service (steel-A) and API X70 grade sour gas resistant (steel-B) steel electrical resistance welding pipelines were evaluated. The microstructure of the bondline is composed of coarse polygonal ferrite grains and several elongated pearlites. The elongated pattern is mainly concentrated in the center of the welded area. The grooving corrosion test and electrochemical polarization test were conducted to study the corrosion behavior of the given materials. A V-shaped corrosion groove was found at the center of the fusion zone in both the steel-A and steel-B ERW pipes, as the corrosion rate of the bondlines is higher than that of the base metal. Furthermore, the higher volume fraction of pearlite at the bondline was responsible for the higher corrosion rate at the bondline of both types of steel.

This study is concerned with the correlation between microstructure and mechanical properties in heat affected zones (HAZs) of API X80 pipeline steels containing complex oxides. Three kinds of specimens were fabricated by varying alloying elements of Ti, Al, and Mg to form complex oxides, and their microstructures, Vickers hardness, Charpy impact properties were investigated. The number of complex oxides increased as the excess amount of Ti, Al, and Mg was included in the steels. The simulated HAZs containing a number of oxides showed a high volume fraction of acicular ferrite region because oxides acted as nucleation sites for acicular ferrite. According to the correlation study between thermal input, volume fraction of acicular ferrite region, and Charpy impact properties, the ductile fracture occurred predominantly when the volume fraction of acicular ferrite region was 65% or higher, and the Charpy absorbed energy was excellent over 200 J. When the volume fraction of acicular ferrite region was 35% or lower, the Charpy absorbed energy was poor below 50 J as the brittle cleavage fracture occurred. These findings suggested that the active nucleation of acicular ferrite in the oxide-containing steel HAZs was associated with the great improvement of Charpy impact properties of the HAZs.
