Key words: furnace tube, welding process, temper embrittlement
【Abstract】The welding process test and joint performance test of Cr-1Mo furnace tube were carried out. The proper welding specifications and heat treatment tempering parameters were selected. The joint was subjected to temper embrittlement sensitivity test, and the embrittlement temperature increment was much lower than that. Control indicators.
The Convection section of the 60,000 t/a ethylene cracking furnace of Beijing Yanshan Petrochemical Co., Ltd., which is manufactured by our factory, is all imported from Japan. One of the furnace tubes is Cr-1Mo has a specification of 168 mm×27 mm, a design pressure of 21.9 MPa, and a design temperature of 516 °C, which is a condition of high temperature and high pressure. Although our factory has many years of experience in manufacturing the Convection Section of the cracking furnace, the materials are generally carbon steel, and the wall thickness is within 12 mm. For the welding of high temperature and high pressure furnace tube materials, more researches at home and abroad are Cr5Mo and 12CrMoV, but for thick walls. Welding of Cr-1Mo furnace tubes is less studied. In order to reasonably determine its welding line energy, preheating temperature and post-weld heat treatment system, it was discussed.
1 Welding method and selection of welding materials
The chemical composition of the convection section of the cracking furnace is shown in Table 1. The mechanical properties are σb=625 MPa, σs=498 MPa, ψ=44.1%, HV=193, ak=257 J. The welding position on the frame is horizontally fixed and obstacles, and the appearance of the weld is very demanding. The residual height of the weld is not more than 1 mm, the height difference of the welding wave is not more than 0.5 mm, the residual height of the back is 0.5 mm, and the weld is 100% X-ray flawed. The manual TIG welding is more suitable. The ASME SA355 is used. The TIG-2GM grade low alloy steel wire produced by the -92 standard has the chemical composition shown in Table 1.
Table 1 Chemical composition%
element | C | Si | Mn | Cr | Mo | S | P |
Furnace tube | 0.130 | 0.250 | 0.600 | 2.270 | 1.030 | 0.003 | 0.007 |
Welding wire | 0.085 | 0.302 | 0.780 | 2.240 | 1.060 | 0.008 | 0.005 |
2 Welding process test and analysis 2.1 Preheating temperature test Cr-1Mo steel tube with a wall thickness of 27 mm, subjected to oblique Y-type restraint crack resistance test at normal temperature and different preheating temperatures. Test welding specification E = 10.2 kJ/cm (I=110 A, U=14 V, v =9 cm/min), after the test weld was placed for 48 h, the surface of the weld was examined by staining and the section was observed with a low power optical microscope. The surface and section crack rates are shown in Table 2. Table 2 Crack resistance test results |
Preheating temperature / °C | Surface breakage rate /% | Section crack rate /% |
Normal temperature | 100.0 | 100.0 |
100 | 70.5 | 83.7 |
150 | 0.0 | 43.5 |
200 | 0.0 | 0.0 |
250 | 0.0 | 0.0 |
Figure 1 Effect of line energy on toughness 2.3 Post-weld heat treatment specification [1] pointed out that for Cr-Mo steel, the tempering parameter [P] varies from 20.0 to 20.6, but for a specific weldment, there is an optimum [P] value. . For wall thickness 27 mm After the post-weld heat treatment of Cr-1Mo furnace tube, the [P] value is taken as the lower limit of 20.0 and the heat preservation is for 2 h. According to the tempering parameter calculation formula, there are: [P]=T(20+lgt)×10-3 (1) Where T is the tempering temperature, K; t is the holding time, h. From the formula (1), T = 710 °C. In order to further understand the influence of the tempering specification on the joint performance, the welding samples of the above scheme 1 were tempered at 650 ° C, 710 ° C and 760 ° C for 2 h, and then the performance test was carried out.
