Abstract
- Repair welding is a popular method to repair the cracked zones of pipes in power plants. However, residual stresses induced by repair welding are inevitably generated and have a significant effect on the performance of repair-welded components during service. The purpose of this research is to investigate the effects of solid-state phase transformation (SSPT) on the repair welding residual stress distribution of multi-layer and multi-pass welding in P91 steel. Based on thermal elastic-plastic theory, a three-dimensional thermal–metallurgical–mechanical finite element model considering the SSPT is established, and shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) heat input is modelled as one double elliptical heat source. The effect of phase transformation on residual stress is investigated by considering effects with and without phase transformation in the database of materials. The results show that transverse compressive stress and a low longitudinal stress area are generated in the final pass due to martensite transformation. Compared with different zones along the thickness direction, the effect of SSPT is greater around the outer surface than around the internal fusion zone. The rationality of the developed finite element model is verified by the experimental method, and good agreement is obtained between those results from the numerical analysis and experimental methods.
