Fabrication of Metallic Pressure Vessels. Maan H. Jawad

      1 All materials must be provided with documentation showing Certified Material Mill Test Reports. The location of the test specimens taken from the mill plate must be identified for traceability. When a piece of the mill plate is cut out for use as a vessel part, its location in the mill plate is recorded and identified. Depending on the material, the method of removing the plate, such as machining or burning then grinding, may need to be recorded. The type and identification number of the grinding wheel may also need to be recorded. These requirements must be met for each piece of material in the pressure vessel.

      2 Hot forming during fabrication must be qualified and documented. The effect of hot forming on material properties and final thickness for some materials may have to be recorded.

      3 All weld electrodes and wires must be identified, including recording of heat numbers, location where used, and properties, with full documentation and traceability.

      4 Each weld in the vessel must be identified with regard to the location as well as WPS and PQR.

      5 All weld repairs on materials and welds during fabrication must be identified and documented. Such documentation must include weld procedures and their effect on properties such as strength and impact values.

      6 Examination of welds and components must be documented.

      7 Records of operators, equipment used, calibration of equipment, and results of tests must be maintained.

      This limited sample of Class 1 requirements illustrates the extent to which quality control and documentation required for nuclear components exceed those for nonnuclear components.

1.5 Units and Abbreviations

      This section describes the unit conventions used in this book. Consistency of units is important in communicating technical data. While throughout the engineering field there is generally good comprehension of units, conversions, and their use, various industries and companies have their own conventions. This can result in confusion, mistakes, and accidents. An example is when NASA lost a 125‐million‐dollar Mars Climate Orbiter when the navigation team at JPL used the customary NASA metric units in its calculations of acceleration readings while Lockheed Martin that built the spacecraft provided the vital acceleration data in the English units. And as the Los Angeles Times put it, “In a sense, the spacecraft was lost in translation.”

      Rates will use abbreviations, not followed by a period, and a slash rather than “per.” Example: “inches per minute” will be written as “in./min”, and in metric “mm/min.”

While in machining the cutting speed is generally referred to as “surface feet per minute,” for consistency with other sections this will be written as “ft/min” with no periods at the ends of the abbreviations.

      “Micro” will be represented by the lowercase Greek letter mu, written as μ.

      English units will be used, followed by the metric equivalent. Dimensions will generally be rounded when converted, and will show no more than three significant figures. For example, “6 in.” becomes “150 mm.” This convention will be followed unless something is clearly intended as an exact dimension or for nominal sizes that are clearly not rounded measurements of the specified dimension. Thus, 6 in. plate is written as 150 mm, and 6 in. pipe is written as DN 150. 3/4 in. plate is written as 19 mm plate.

      Appendix A provides a list of abbreviations and conversions commonly used in the pressure vessel industry.

1.6 Summary

      The description in this chapter represents a brief summary of the many tasks that must be accomplished in the fabrication and preparation of a pressure vessel, as well as some discussion of aspects of cost reduction. This description and associated cost control techniques can be applied both to less and more complex vessels. The same issues occur and the same processes are applied. The following chapters provide a more detailed look at each aspect of this process, and the appendices provide a compendium of information that is often needed during the design or production of pressure vessels.
