The development and design of the repair welding procedure of the thick wall duplex stainless steel piping

In this paper, the performance characteristics of ASTM A790 S31803 and ASTM A182 F51 duplex stainless steel were introduced, and the weldabilities were analyzed.The welding repair procedures of thick wall duplex stainless steel were developed by welding procedure qualification.Research shows that the repair welding has less effect on mechanical properties of welded joint, and great influence on phase proportions and pitting corrosion resistance.The test results meet the requirements of project specifications.The repair welding procedure can be used in project, and only one time repair shall be used.
