BARC Newsletter Post-Weld Heat Treatment – Case Studies Khaleel Ahmed and J. Krishnan Centre for Design and Manufacture Bhabha Atomic Research Centre Introduction When combined with normal load stresses these may exceed the design stresses. The removal of EAT TREATMENT IS AN IMPORTANT residual stresses takes place due to the fact that operation in the final fabrication process the thermal energy received by the metal allows H of many engineering components. Only for grain boundary sliding and removal of by heat treatment it is possible to impart high metallurgical defects like dislocations, vacancies mechanical properties to steel parts and tools for and slip planes. A most important aspect of Post sophisticated applications. Weld Heat treatment is the prevention of Brittle Heat treatment is considered to be very Fracture. Post weld heat treatment softens the important tool of the metallurgist by which he hardened zones and makes the machining easy. can alter the properties of steel easily. The Removal of residual stresses becomes necessary same steel can have a very wide range of where dimensional stability is required. The mechanical properties if subjected to different heat treatment consists of the stress-relief, heat treatment. Today when science and annealing or solution annealing depending upon technology are advancing very rapidly in pursuit the requirements
