26、terial toughness, Kmat(t), as a function of thickness is based on the reference flaw and applied stress. When Kmat(t) was evaluated for ASME Section VIII, Division 2, the fracture toughness parameter and reference stress parameter given were evaluated at R = 100. To derive the required CVN for a mat
27、erial as a function of thickness and yield strength, the CVN transition curve is divided into three regions. 5.2 Lower Shelf Vicinity CVN In the vicinity of the lower shelf (near lower shelf, nls), the CVN requirement for the early part of the transition region is a function of thickness and is give

The fracture toughness for the near lower shel
29、f region is then simply given by (also see API 579-1/ASME FFS-1, Annex F, paragraph F.4.5.2) () 15 ()nls nlsKt CVNt= (23) 5.3 Upper Shelf Region CVN The dynamic fracture toughness for an ASME exemption curve material (A, B, C or D) with a group temperature, T0, for a specified yield strength, ys, at
30、 a temperature, T, may be estimated as shown below, see API 579-1/ASME FFS-1, Annex F, paragraph F.4.5.3. This equation provides more reasonable values for the dynamic fracture toughness than the simple equation of Corten in the important region approaching the lower shelf where Cortens equation giv

36、test exemption curves in Figure 9 from ASME Section VIII, Division 2 gives exemption temperature based on a nominal component thickness for components not subject to PWHT. It is obtained by solving Kmat(t) equation above for the temperature directly, again noting that the exemption temperature is a
37、function of the thickness, or: 0() 3() Arctanh273mat ysysKtTt C T=+ (29) For all materials covered by the four exemption curves labeled A, B, C and D, the yield stress in the above equation was conservatively assumed to be 80 ksi, i.e., ys= 80 ksi. In addition, the cut-off limit for the lower bound
38、of the curve is taken as the temperature at which the thickness is equal to 0.4 inch as shown in Figure 9. This approach was modified for thin piping as described below. For piping components of interest in this study the equations for a thickness range of 0.001 inch t 4 inches cited above were used
39、 and evaluated at R=10 inches. A series of calculations showed that the effect of R on temperature was not strong. Exemption curves for various yield strengths are presented for piping in Figure 10 to Figure 13. The effect of yield strength is strong in thick sections. These plots allow the governin
40、g committees to make decisions regarding conservatism they wish to apply for piping applications based on relevant experience and operating practices with the materials in use. 11 STP-PT-028 Impact Testing Exemption Curves The effect on PWHT, of course, is to lower the exemption temperature as shown
41、 by comparing Figure 12 and Figure 14 for Type C materials at thicknesses greater than that at which the lower shelf cut off (truncation) is reached for the heat treated material. For materials that are not post weld heat treated, for a given yield strength the cut off temperature for the heat treat
42、ed material is acceptable but at a thinner wall and the corresponding assumed flaw size is proportionately smaller. The assumption of very small flaws permits achieving in principle the very low exemption temperatures indicated for material that is not post weld heat treated. For each yield strength
43、, the truncation of the exemption curve occurs just above the lower shelf energy. 5.7 Derivation of Curves for Reduction in the MDMT Without Impact Testing The permissible reduction in the MDMT without impact testing due to stress reduction is shown in Figure 15 for components not subject to PWHT. I
44、t is derived using the fracture mechanics concepts above with the important consideration regarding residual stresses. Residual stresses that comprise an important part of the crack driving force are not reduced when applied stresses are reduced. This was not properly accounted for in the calculatio
45、ns for stress reduction when done in the past for the ASME Code. The temperature reduction, TR(Rts), based on the stress reduction ratio, Rts, is: 0() 3()Arctanh273mat ts ysRtsysKRTR CT=+ (30) The reduced temperature, TR(Rts), is only a function of the stress reduction ratio, Rts, yield strength but
46、 not the wall thickness. The final equation for the temperature reduction, T(Rts), is simply given by: (31) () (1) ()ts R R tsTR T T R=In ASME Section VIII, Division 2, if the computed value of the Rtsratio is less than or equal to 0.24, then the MDMT may be set to 155F and impact testing is not req
47、uired unless a lower MDMT is desired. This requirement roughly stipulates that if the operating stresses are equal to, or less than, 10% of the specified ultimate tensile strength, operation for ferritic materials is permitted on the lower shelf. This rule is consistent with old ASME Section VIII, D
48、ivision 2 where the limit for the Rtsratio is 0.3. The purported justification for low-stress, lower shelf operation is that the stress is low enough that brittle fracture is not possible. The curves given in Figure 10 through Figure 14 are all truncated just above the lower shelf due to the tempera
49、ture sensitivity of the calculations. As the lower shelf is approached, the curves become nearly vertical and extremely low temperatures would be permitted. 12 Impact Testing Exemption Curves STP-PT-028 6 CONCLUSION Extension of exemption curves has been accomplished by consistent application of old and new ASME concepts intended for pressure vessel applications.
