Postweld Heat Treatment

Postweld Heat Treatment

Definition(s)


Postweld Heat Treatment

A work process which consists of heating an entire weldment or section of fabricated piping to an elevated temperature after completion of welding in order to relieve the detrimental effects of welding heat, such as reducing residual stresses, reducing hardness, and/or slightly modifying properties (See ASME B31.3, paragraph 331).

Intermediate Stress Relief

Intermediate Stress Relief

Definition(s)


Intermediate Stress Relief

Activity carried out to reduce residual stresses and diffuse hydrogen from completed highly stressed weld joints so that the risk of cracking is minimized upon the weld joint cooling to ambient temperature.
  • NOTE: Intermediate stress relief (ISR) may be used to reduce the risk of decreasing the base material properties when multiple welding operations are performed on a component. For example, a flange may receive an ISR after the seal groove inlay, then receive the final PWHT after the flange has been circumferentially welded to its mating component.
