Cm - Aspect by NDTDf - Thermal Fatigue Cracks
Aspect of the cracking after Dye Check Test (Liquid Penetrant) in the external side of the line that operates at 800°C, insulated, and presented the leakage associated to the longitudinal seam weld of the fitting. The circumferential butt weld of the fitting to a pipe did not fail. See the schematic drawing in the next figure
