The Effects of Induction Heating Conditions on Controlling Residual Stresses in Welded Pipes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Induction heating for stress improvement (IHSI) is a method for reducing the tensile weld induced stresses on the inner surfaces of the girth welded pipes. The process entails inductively heating ...
A Computational Model for Improving Weld Residual Stresses in Small Diameter Pipes by Induction Heating
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Girth welding can produce tensile residual stresses on the pipe inner surface. Because tensile stresses enhance the possibility of stress corrosion cracking, methods for altering the weld-induced ...
The Effect of Pipe Thickness on Residual Stresses due to Girth Welds
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper addresses the question of what effect the pipe thickness has on weld residual stresses in 304 stainless steel piping. Two diameters are considered. These are nominal 4-in. and 10-in. ...
