Crevice Corrosion in a Subsea System — Aspect Before Analysis

SortRelevanceNewestOldestTitle A-ZTitle Z-A
Aspect of the cracked valve body, after disassembling and removing the internal parts. The valve is part of a lot that was manufactured by forging a cubic 170mm from a forged bar in SDSS UNS S32760, and heat treated (solution annealed) by the forging company. The fabrication using these bodies included the machining, fillet weld two inserts in Alloy 625, machining again, assembling the internals, and pressure test at 15,000 psi. The cracking occurred during test, only for this valve body.

Cm - Transverse Section AspectDf - Cracking
Aspect of a section cut transverse to the center of the body. The structure of the valve body was not uniform and close to the BX groove body face the structure was more degradated than in the bottom of the body, as it will be presented in the next figures.
