The FEM analyses consisted of thermal and mechanical analyses.Thermal analysis was validated with experimental transient temperature measurements. In the mechanical analysis, three different weld sequences and directions were considered to understand the mechanism of out-of-plane distortion in the tube to pipe T-joints. It was learnt that the welding direction plays a major role in minimizing the out-of-plane distortion. Further, during circumferential fillet welding of the tube to pipe component, the out-of-plane distortion generated in the x direction was primarily influenced by heat input due to the start and stop points, whereas the distortion in the z direction was influenced by time lag and welding direction. The FEM predicted distortion was compared with experimental measurements and the mechanism of out-of-plane distortion was confirmed.展开更多

Thanks to the technical innovation, the Ф 140 product line has become the most efficient one in the world. With the advance of conglomeracy and the construction of the most advanced weld pipe line and the Ф460 premium quality finishing （PQF） line ,the catalogue of Baosteel tube ＆pipe products has covered the extensive range from the hot roll to cold roll, the seamless to the welded, and all of the product dimension scope from 25.4 mm to 610 ram. To meet the requirements of relevant industries such as energy ,transportation, machinery,ammunition and other relevant industries, the product variety is diverting from carbon steel to alloy steel, stainless steel and special alloys. As the Baosteel Steel Tubing Plant increased its number of production units, expanded its production capacity and developed new products ,it has grown into a pipe and tube supplier with global competitiveness.展开更多
