The influence of heat input on fracture toughness was investigated in SAW weldments, which were prepared at two different welding conditions in API 2W Gr.50 and EN10225 5420. By examining the fracture initiation point, refined areas(ICHAZ and SCHAZ) in weld metal was identified as local brittle zone, in which M-A constituents and coarsed grain size were observed. Impact values showed the most significant difference at root portion, and CTOD transition temperature was related with impact values obtained at root portion. Hardness values in refined area were less than columnar microstructure about 20 HV5.

In order to evaluate the proper fracture strength of microstructures in a steel weldment, smaller size loading ball than used for a conventional small punch(CSP) testing is required due to regional limitation on constitutive structures. In this study, the minimized loading ball(φ 1.5mm) and bore diameter of lower die(φ 3mm) were designed for an advanced small punch(ASP) test. The results obtained from the ASP test were compared with those from a CSP testing for a X20CrMoV121 steel weldment. It was found that the ASP test clearly showed the microstructural dependance on fracture strength and ductile-brittle transition behavior of the weldment. In the ASP test, especially, the cracks tend to initiate for various directions within hemispherical indentation region of an objective structure in SP test. This indicates that the evaluation of more proper fracture strength for F.L+CGHAZ, FGHAZ and ICHAZ can be performed by means of the ASP test in a steel weldment.

In order to evaluate the proper fracture strength of microstructures in a steel weldment, smaller size loading ball than used for a conventional small punch(CSP) testing is required due to regional limitation on constitutive structures. In this study, the minimized loading ball(${\varphi}1.5mm$) and bore diameter of lower die(${\varphi}3mm$) were designed for an advanced small punch(ASP) test. The results obtained from the ASP test were compared with those from a CSP testing for a X20CrMoV121 steel weldment. It was found that the ASP test clearly showed the microstructural dependance on fracture strength and ductile-brittle transition behavior of the weldment.

고온 고압 산업용 설비의 경우, 대부분 균열이 용접부위에서 가장 먼저 발생하여 성장한다(1). 그러나 용접부라고 하지만 장기간 사용에 의한 사용재 균열성장은 엄밀히 말하면 용접부와 모재부 사이의 열영향부이며 열영향부 중에서도 ICHAZ(Intercritical heat affected zone)에서 발생하는 TYPE IV균열/sup (1)/이라 하겠다 따라서 용접부 균열에 대한 파괴거동을 연구하는 것은 고온고압 산업용 설비의 잔여 수명을 평가하는데 매우 중요하다.(중략)

손상된 터어빈 로터강의 보수 용접에 있어서 용접부의 크립 파단 수명과 탄화물간의 관계가 연구되었다. 탄화물은 탄화물 추출 복제법을 이용하여 확인되었으며 로터강에는 Molybdenum 주성분의$M_2C$, Vanadium 주성분의 $M_4C_3$, 및 Chromium 주성분의 $M_{23}C_6$와 $M_7C_3$ 탄화물이 존재하였다. 한편 ICHAZ에서 파단된 시험편의 파단면에서는 구상의 조대한 Molybdenum 주성분의 $M_6C$ 탄화물이 발견되었다. 조대한 Molybdenum 주성분의 $M_6C$ 탄화물의 석출은 탄화물 주위에 고용경화 원소인 Molybdenum 농도를 떨어뜨려 기공 발생 원인을 제공하였다. CGHAZ에서 파단된 용접부의 파단면에서는 조대한 $M_6C$ 와 $M_{23}C_6$가 발견되었다.

The sulfide stress corrosion cracking (SSCC) resistance of API X70 grade steel weldment has been studied using SSCC test in NACE TM-O177 method A. Also, microstructures and hardness distribution of weldment was investigated. The microstructure of SAW joint composed ferrite, pearlite and some MA constituent. Instead of hardening in CGHAZ, softening on the HAZ near base metal occurred. The low carbon TMCP type steel used for SAW showed softening behaviour in the HAZ adjacent to base metal, which was known to be closely related with the SOHIC (stress oriented hydrogen induced cracking). The SSC testing revealed that the API X70 SAW weld was suitable for sour service, satisfying the NACE requirements. By suppressing softening in the ICHAZ region, the SSCC resistance of low carbon TMCP steel welded joints could be more improved.

This study includes the efface of shielding gas types on $CO_2$ laser weldability of low carbon automotive galvanized steel. The types of shielding gas evaluated are He, $CO_2$, Ar, $N_2$, 50%Ar＋50%$N_2$. The weld penetration, strength, formability(Erichsen test) of Laser weld are found to be strongly dependent upon the types of shielding gas used. Further, the maximum travel speed and flow rate to form a keyhole weld is also dependent upon types of shielding gas. The ability of shielding gas in removing plasma plume and thus increasing weld penetration is believed to be closely related with ionization/dissociation potential, which determine the period of plasma formation and disappearance. Further, thermal conductivity and reactivity of gas with molten pool also give strong effect on penetration and porosity formation which in turn affect on the formability and strength.

손상된 ASTM A-470 class 8 고압 증기 터어빈 로터강의 수명 연장을 위해 보수 용접이 행하여졌다. SAW 용접부의 미세경도 측정결과 모재의 경도는 VHN 253이었으나 모재에 근접한 열영향부의 경도는 VHN 227로 떨어졌다. 이와 같이 경도가 떨어진 영역을 "연화층"이라 정의하였으며 약 0.5-0.6mm의 크기를 나타내었다. 한편 크립 파단 시험시 파괴는 연화층 부근에서 일어났으며 593.deg. C와 19Ksi(132 Mpa)에서 파단시간은 772.4hr이었다. 연화층의 크기를 줄이기 위해서 MIG 및 TIG 용접이 행하여졌는데 연화층 크기는 MIG의 경우 0.3-0.4mm이고, TIG의 경우에는 입열량의 크기에 따라 0부터 0.4mm의 크기를 나타내었다. 그러나 크립 파단시간은 연화층 크기가 작아질수록 감소하였다. 특히 TIG 용접부의 경우 크립 파단시간은 입열량과 밀접한 관계를 나타내었는데 입열량이 클수록 파단시간은 길어졌다. 대부분의 파괴는 ICHAZ에서 발생되었으나 입열량이 감소함에 따라 파단부는 CGHAZ으로 이동하였다. 파단면은 tearing과 dimple을 갖는 입내파괴를 나타내었다.파괴를 나타내었다.

This paper presents an effective and reliable evaluation method for fracture strength and material degradation of the micro-structure of high temperature service steel weldment using advanced small punch (ASP) test developed from conventional small punch (CSP) test. For the purpose of the ASP test, a lower die with a minimized ${\Phi}$1.5 mm diameter loading ball and an optimized deformation guide hole of ${\Phi}$3 mm diameter were designed. The behaviors of fracture energy (E$\_$sp/), ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) and material degradation from the ASP test showed a definite dependency on the micro-structure of weldment. Results obtained from ASP test were compared and reviewed with results from CSP test, Charpy impact test, and hardness test. The utility and reliability of the proposed ASP test were verified by investigating fracture strength, behavior of DBTT, and fracture location of each micro-structure of steel weldment for test specimen in ASP test. It was observed that the fracture toughness in the micro-structure of FL＋CGHAZ and ICHAZ decreased remarkably with increasing aging time. From studies of all micro-structures, it was observed that FGHAZ microstructure has the most excellent fracture toughness, and it showed absence of material degradation.
