ASME SA508 Class 3 원자로압력용기강을 대상으로, 용접열영향부(heat affected zone, HAZ)의 최고온도(peak temperature) 등온분포도(isothermal diagram)를 작성 및 해석하였고, 재현(simulated) 열영향부 시험편을 제작하여 미세조직검사 및 기계적특성 시험을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 최고온도 등온분포도를 이용하여, 미소열영향부(subzone of HAZ)의 미세조직(microstructure)에 미치는 예열(preheat)온도와 용접입열량(weld heat input)의 크기 효과를 예측할 수 있었다. 또한, 재현 HAZ 의 기계적특성 시험결과, 용접용융선(fusion line) + 1 mm 이내의 위치로 대표되는 열 cycle 조건에서는 모재보다 양호한 강도와 인성을 보였고, 용접용융선 + 2~3mm부근에서 가장 미세한 조직(fine tempered lower bainite)과 우수한 충격인성을 나타냈다. 한편, 용접용융선 + 약 5mm 위치에서의 열 cycle 을 재현한 시험편에서는 미세조직의 변화(spheroidization of carbides)와 함께 인성 및 기계적 특성이 저하하여 모재보다 낮은 값을 보이는 것을 발견할 수 있었다.

일정진폭하중과 과대하중비 2.5의 단일 인장과대하중에 의한 4140강 용접부 의 피로균열성장거동을 실온과 -45.deg.C의 저온에서 피로시험과 파면관찰을 통하여 고찰하였다. 이때, 용접부 미시조직의 영향을 평가하기 위해 모재(parent metal), 열영향부(as-welded HAZ), 열처리된 열영향부(PWHT HAZ)로 나누어 응력비 0과 0.5로 CT시험편을 이용하여 피로시험을 실시하였다. 피로균열성장거동은 재료의 미시조직과 온도변화보다는 응력비에 크게 영향을 받았으며, 단일 과대하중에 의한 피로균열성장 지연효과가 모든 재료에서 상당히 크게 나타났다. 전자현미경에 의한 피로파면 관찰 결과, 실온에서는 연성의 스트라이에이숀과 -45.deg.C에서는 의벽개파면과 같은 피로 균열성장거동을 나타내고 있다.

In this study, Charpy impact test and numerical studies were performed to examine the effects of failure behavior and energy absorption on the notch position. For this purpose, carbon steel plate(SA-516 Gr. 70) with thickness of 25mm usually used for pressure vessel was welded by SMAW(Shielded Metal-Arc Welding)method and specimens were fabricated from the welded plate. The Charpy impact tests were then performed with specimens having different notch positions varying within HAZ. A series of three-dimensional FE analysis which simulates the Charpy test and crack propagation are carried out as well. We divided HAZ into two, three and four regions to apply mechanical properties of HAZ to FE-analys. Results reveal that the absorbed energies during impact test depend significantly on the notch position. To obtain the results of reliability, HAZ should be divided into at least three regions.

조사전 및 감시시험시 용접열영향부(heat affected zone, HAZ)의 인성평가를 위해 제작되는 샤피(Charpy) 충격시험편의 노치(notch) 위치에 대하여 현재의 규정에 대한 타당성을 검토하였다. 적용규정은 HAZ 시험편의 노치위치를 용접용융선(fusion line, FL) ＋ 모재측 0.8 mm 로 제한하고 있다. 그러나, 본 연구결과, 이 부위는 다층(multipass) 용접시 후속열이력에 의해 결정립이 미세화되어, 인장강도와 경도 및 충격인성이 모재나 용접부에 비하여 양호하게 나타났다. 한편, FL ＋ 4 mm 이상의 다른 위치에서는 강도와 경도 및 충격인성이 모두 모재와 용접부에 비하여 낮은 값을 보였다. 이는 다층용접에 의한 후속열이력 및 용접후열처리(post weld heat treatment, PWHT)에 의해 금속조직학적 영향을 받은 것으로 판단되었다. 일련의 시험결과로부터, 조 사전 및 감시시험용 샤피충격시험편의 HAZ 에 있어서의 노치위치에 대한 현재의 규정을 재검토할 필요가 있음을 제안하였다.

In order to study on the corrosion characteristics of STS 304 pipeline steel weldment for gas cooling & heating system. the electrochemical polarization test and corrosion test by impressed potential in 0.5M $H_2SO_4+0.01M$ KSCN solution was carried out. Also, SEM and hardness of welding zone was measured. And then passive behavior, corrosion behavior by the impressed potential and SEM aspect and hardness behavior of base metal(BM) and heat affected zone(HAZ) for STS 304 pipe were investigated. The main results are as follows: 1) The critical anodic current density of heat affected zone(HAZ) is drained more highly than that of base metal(BM), and primary passive potential of HAZ become higher than that of BM. 2) The passive current density of TUE is drained more highly than that of BM, and passive region of BM become bigger than that of HAZ. 3) By the impressed potential, the current density of HAZ is drained more than that of BM.

This study has evaluated the liquation cracking behavior in the heat affected zone of several Ni base superalloys (Incoloy 825, Inconel 718 and Inconel 600). 304 and 310S austenitic stainless steels were also included for comparison. In addition, the mechanism of liquation cracking in the HAZ was postulated based on the extensive microstructural examinations with SEM, EDAX and TEM. The liquation cracking resistance of Ni base alloys was found to be far inferior to that of austenitic stainless steels. The liquation cracking of Incoloy 825 and Inconel 718 was believed to be closely related with the Laves-austenite(Ti rich in 825 and Nb rich in 718) and MC-austenitic eutectic phases formed along the grain boundaries by constitutional liquation and incipient melting under rapid welding thermal contraction. Further, liquation cracking resistance of the HAZ was dependent not only upon the type and amount of low melting phases but also on the grain size.

The use of high-strength aluminum alloys for ship and offshore structure generally has many benefits compared to the structural steels. These materials are used widely in a variety of fields, especially in the hull and deck of high speed craft, box-girder of bridges, deck and side plates of offshore structure. The structural weight can be reduced using these aluminum structure, which can enable high speed The characteristics of stress-strain relationship of aluminum structure are fairly different from the steel one, because of the influence of Heat Affected Zone(HAZ) by the welding processing. The HAZ of aluminum is much wider than that of steel with its high heat conductivity. In this paper, the ultimate strength characteristics of aluminum stiffened panel subjected to axial loading, such as the relationship between extent of HAZ and the behavior of buckling/ultimate strength, are investigated through the Finite Element Analysis with varying its range.

The use of high-strength aluminum alloys for ships and of shore structures has many benefits compared to carbon steels. Recently, high-strength aluminum alloys have been widely used in onshore and of shore industries, and they are widely used for the side shell structures of special-purpose ships. Their use in box girders of bridge structures and in the topside of fixed platforms is also becoming more widespread. Use of aluminum material can reduce fuel consumption by reducing the weight of the composite material through a weight composition ratio of 1/3 compared to carbon steel. The characteristics of the stress strain relationship of an aluminum structure are quite different from those of a steel structure, because of the influence of the welding[process heat affected zone (HAZ). The HAZ of aluminum is much wider than that of steel owing to its higher heat conductivity. In this study, by considering the HAZ generated by metal insert gas (MIG) welding, the buckling and final strength characteristics of an aluminum reinforcing plate against longitudinal compression loads were analyzed. MIG welding reduces both the buckling and ultimate strength, and the energy dissipation rate after initial yielding is high in the range of the HAZ being 15 mm, and then the difference is small when HAZ being 25 mm or more. Therefore, it is important to review and analyze the influence of the HAZ to estimate the structural behavior of the stiffened plate to which the aluminum alloy material is applied.

In this paper, ultimate compressive strength of TMCP 50HT steel plates (yield stress .sigma.$_{o}$=36kg/mm$^{2}$) with HAZ softening is studied. Finite element method formulated by the author is applied to analyze the elasto-plastic large deflection behaviour of the plates. The influence of HAZ softening breadth, welding direction and slenderness ratio on the ultimate compressive strength is investigated. The results obtained are summarized as 1) With the increasing of the HAZ softening breadth, early plasticity on the plates is formed and then the ultimate compressive strength is decreased, in which about 8% of the ultimate strength for the plate with h/t=4(h: HAZ softening breadth, t: plate thickness) was reduced comparing with no HAZ softening. 2) The large decrease of the ultimate strength for the case that the welding direction is normal to the loading direction is occurred than the case that the welding direction is parallel to the loading direction. 3) The influence of HAZ softening on the ultimate compressive strength is serious for thick plates, while it may be negligible for thin plates.s.

용접열영향부는 최고 도달온도로부터의 거리에 따른 온도구배 변화와 급격한 열 사이 클 때문에 조직 및 물성치의 변화가 예상되는 영역이므로 인성저하등 취성이 잠재적으로 내포된 지역임을 쉽게 예상할 수 있다. 따라서 송전 철탑용 STKT 590 용접열영향부에서의 상변태 거동과 미세조직의 변화에 따른 기계적 특성을 파악하여 용접부의 안전성 확보를 위해 용접열영향부(HAZ)의 상변태거동과 미시파괴기구를 연구하고 개선안을 도출할 필요가 있다.
