Introduction
Residual stresses, unavoidable during welding, can significantly impact the structural integrity and safe operation of pressure equipment. Post-weld...
Heat treatment is an effective means of eliminating residual stress from welding and improving the microstructure and properties of welded joints. Its quality directly affects the overall performance of pressure equipment.
Performance and service life. As pressure equipment develops towards larger sizes and higher parameters, and operates in extreme environments such as high temperature, high pressure, and corrosion, performance and service life become increasingly important.
Post-weld heat treatment has placed higher demands on the industry. Improper heat treatment can easily induce stress corrosion cracking and significantly increase the risk of equipment failure during service.
The risk of failure such as creep and fatigue. To improve the standardization and scientific nature of post-weld heat treatment processes for pressure equipment and ensure its long-term service life.
To ensure the reliability and service life of welding equipment, GB/T 30583 has been revised. This document further adjusts and refines the welding procedures based on the.2014 version.
Post-heat treatment parameters were specified; the requirements for the width of the heating band and the gradient control band width in the post-weld heat treatment of single-heat local welding were clarified; and the main and auxiliary heating areas were proposed.
The post-weld heat treatment method solves the problem of difficulties in on-site implementation caused by the excessively large heating bandwidth of large equipment. This document also specifies the post-weld heat treatment method.
The testing and evaluation methods for heat treatment effects provide a technical solution for the quality control of post-weld heat treatment.
This document is one of the general technical standards for the construction of pressure equipment, and includes the technical requirements to be followed during the post-weld heat treatment of pressure equipment.
This document does not cover all the technical details of heat treatment for pressure equipment within its scope. This document does not restrict the actual heat treatment process from using pre-treatment methods.
Advanced technical methods are permitted, but engineers must assess their reliability before adopting them to ensure they meet the requirements of this document.

3.1 Terms and Definitions
The terms and definitions defined in GB/T 3375 and GB/T 9452, as well as the following terms and definitions, apply to this document.
3.1.1
weldment
Welded pressure equipment or its components.
3.1.2
To eliminate residual welding stress and improve the microstructure and properties of the welded joint, the workpiece is uniformly heated to a sufficiently high temperature and maintained at a certain temperature.
The process involves time, followed by uniform cooling.
3.1.3
Due to limitations in size or special structure, or reasons such as needing to repair or modify the equipment, overall heat treatment cannot be performed, and instead, localized heating is used.
Post-weld heat treatment.
3.1.4
Soakband;SB
During localized post-weld heat treatment, the weld seam and the strip-shaped area on both sides of the weldment reach the specified temperature range.
Note. The isothermal zone generally covers at least the weld zone, the heat-affected zone, and the adjacent base material.
