Jarvio C. 3, J. A. Villalobos G. 1 1 Tuxtepec Institute of Technology ITT 2 National Polytechnic Institute IPN 3 Nuclear Research National Institute ININ Abstract The mechanical behavior of metal loss, localized in the heat affected zone of welded joints in low carbon steel pipes, was analyzed by mean of the finite element method, considering the non linear material behavior (plasticity). The numerical experimentation was done for metal losses of different length and depth, considering the kinematic hardening rule and pressurizing internally the pipe monotonically until the ultimate tensile strength was reached, to determine the limit load than it can support before the failure. Furthermore, hydrostatic testing with measuring of the deformation using strain gages placed in different locations of interest was realized, to verify the results obtained by mean of numerical experimentation, founding that is possible to operate a pipe with metal loss than generate stress near to yield stress, without to affect its global operation. 1. Introduction. The metal loss located in the heat affected zone of pipes subject to internal pressure is a form of damage that causes a decrease in its mechanical strength. This defect may occur as a simple metal loss, metal loss multiple or generalized loss of thickness, and its effect on the mechanical strength depends primarily on its size, diameter and thickness of the pipe, as well as material properties. Analytical methods for evaluation of metal loss in pipes with internal pressure are based on the stress determination in the area of damage, through established procedures such as ANSI B31G or the recommended practice API RP 579, comparing the solution with the strength of the material to determine if the component is fit to continue operating safely. These methodologies, based on codes or recommended practices limit the assessment of metal loss located near welds, considering imminent rejection. However, it has been in hydrostatic test of pipes containing metal losses, have endured greater pressure loads to the established limit, located both in the shell and in the heat affected zone (HAZ). This led to detailed analysis by FEM considering the kinematic hardening of the material to obtain a comparable response to hydrostatic test results, determining the remaining strength of the pipe.
2 2. Development 2.1 Non linear behavior of material A cylindrical vessel subjected to internal pressure regulation operates stress levels below the yield point of material. However, at present a metal loss, the level of stress may eventually exceed the material yield stress, bringing the affected section to operate in the elastic plastic regime, where it is necessary to use the theory of plasticity to explain the nonlinear behavior of material. The incremental plasticity theory provides a mathematical relationship that characterizes the stress and strain increments to represent the behavior of a material in the plastic range. There are 3 basic components of incremental plasticity theory [1] called yield criterion, flow rule and hardening rule. The elastic plastic laws are path-dependent and dissipative. Much of the work consumed in plastically deforming the material is irreversibly converted into other forms of energy, particularly heat. The stress depends on the complete history of deformation and can not be written as a simple function of the strain tested, can be specified as a relationship between estimated values of stress and strain Yield criterion. When a material reaches its yield stress in uniaxial tension, it begins to deform plastically. In practical situations, it is common that the material is under a combined stress state and plastic deformation can occur at different stress than yield stress in uniaxial tension. The determination of yield criteria under a combined statement of stress must be an invariant, and that does not depend on the orientation, eliminating the hydrostatic stress because not to cause deformation. [2] The evaluation criterion was the von Mises expressed by: y The yielding occurs when the equivalent stress exceeds the yield stress of material: e y Flow rule. It prescribes the direction of plastic deformation when the yield point occurs. Defined as the individual components of plastic deformation (ε x pl, ε y pl, ε z pl ) developed in yielding. Flow equations, which are derived from the yield criterion, which typically involve plastic deformations develop in a direction normal to the yield surface Hardening rule. It describes as the initial yield point criterion change with the progressive plastic deformation. The hardening rule describes how the yield surface is changed during plastic flow. Determined when the material will yield again if the load is maintained or if the load is reversed. The yield surface varies at each stage of plastic deformation, adopting an alternative model for strain hardening.
3 The kinematic hardening was the rule assumed (figure 1-c), due to the yield surface to remain constant in size when it experienced displacements by translation. Most metals exhibit a kinematic hardening behavior for small strain cyclic loading. Figure 1. Hardening rules for structural materials. 2.2 General formulation for small strain plasticity Considering the axial stress and strain σ-ε, and idealizing the stress-strain relationship as bilinear, when the stress σ increases from zero, yielding initiates in a σ Y stress in the corresponding strain ε Y. In general, yielding is defined by F = 0, where F is the yield function such that: [3] F Y The uniaxial yield criterion, as modified by the action of the hardening rules is provided in the forms: F 0 F Y Isotropic hardening kinematic hardening, where: 0 Y is the largest magnitude of uniaxial stress reached in the previous plastic deformation. The coefficient α called kinematic change, used in the kinematic hardening rule assumes a zero value before the start of yielding. Strain values greater than ε Y assume an increase dε decomposed into its elastic dε e and plastic dε p contributions in the form: e p d d d Stress increases are associated with only the elastic component, e p d E d E d d E d H d p where [E]: matrix elastic properties, [H P ]: strain hardening parameter and [E t ]: stiffness tangent modulus. Considering the yielding function:, F F, W p t p
4 , Where values of Wp count for the hardening, describing how a yield surface is altered in the multidimensional stress space, for changes in the size or location in response to plastic deformation. The flow rule is defined in terms of a function Q, called the plastic potential. With a scalar dλ called plastic multiplier, increments in plastic deformation are given by: Q d p d. Modeling considering a kinematic hardening, it is represented by the vector, which considers displacement of the yield surface in the vector space, represented as: C d p, expression obtained from the integration of: p 2 d C d, C H P 1 1 1, being H P the plastic modulus of the material. For an increase in plastic deformation, df = 0, is obtained from the yield function: T T F F d d 0. Replacing the plastic deformation increases in the equation for the increase of stress associated with the elastic component, so as the kinematic hardening vector is obtained: Q Q d Ed d, d C d. d, d Replacing the expressions for in the penultimate equation and solving the resulting equation for the plastic multiplier dλ is obtained: d P d, where P F T E P is the row matrix: T F E Q F d T C Finally, from the equations for d, and.

9 The elastic plastic behavior of the material required the implementation of a nonlinear analysis, to solve the FEM models to define the mechanical behavior when considering the action of internal pressure load. In a nonlinear analysis solution can not be predicted directly with a group of linear equations. A non-linear structure can be analyzed through a series of iterative linear approximations with corrections. The ANSYS finite element program uses an iterative process called the method of Newton-Raphson, where each iteration is known as an iteration of equilibrium. [4] Each iteration is a separate step through the solution of the equation, and a full iterative analysis is for an increase in load. The Newton-Raphson method iterates until a solution (figure 7) by the equation T nr K u F F where: T K : tangent stiffness matrix u: increase of displacement F : external loads vector nr F : internal loads vector Figure 7. Iterative process of solution by the Newton-Raphson method. F K T F nr u u 1 The solution of nonlinear finite element models for each of the case studies was carried out considering a sequence of increases in internal pressure load. Initiated load increases from zero, reaching the internal pressure than generated yield stress σ y, through the flow stress to reach the ultimate tensile strength. This allowed to know the pressure loads that can lead eventually to a failure condition in a pipe with a metal loss in the region of the HAZ.
10 2.4.2 Hydrostatic test in a pipe containing metal loss. The hydrostatic test is performed to evaluate the real behavior of the pipe, considering the presence of metal loss in the HAZ, and also allows verification of the results obtained by numerical simulation. The pipe was tested as a pressure vessel, to be kept sealed with end caps and subjected to pressure load through the entry of water pumping equipment (water was used neutral and free of suspended solids). The test was conducted at a temperature of 20ºC, using a calibrated pressure gauge connected to the pipe, with water as incompressible fluid whose behavior did not generate pressure increase risk. [5] The hydrostatic test pressure for the pipe was determined by a standard as sealed hydrostatic test, depending on the system operating pressure and maximum pressure emergency. Although hydrostatic pressure is usually 1.5 times the normal operating pressure, which in no case exceed 90% of the yield stress limit for the material [6], our experimental pressure values considered to lead to pipe until failure, with a number of defects oriented in the HAZ. The deformation produced in the pipe during the hydrostatic test was evaluated by electrical strain gages, capable of measuring in the elastic plastic range. The surface preparation for bonding of the strain gages (figure 8) was developed according to guidelines set by the manufacturer. [7,8] A conditioned trench was prepared for the hydrotest, where the pipe instrumented with strain gages was hosted, which were connected to a strain indicator (figure 9). Figure 8. Surface preparation and bonding of strain gages. Figure 9. Instrumented pipe and strain indicator.
11 During the course of the hydrotest, allowed the free flow of water throughout the vessel, to fill it completely. It opened the vent valve to remove air from the pipe, with the gradual closure of the same water leaving no bubbles. A hydraulic pump slowly increased the pressure in the vessel, with increments of 10 kg/cm 2 to reach the design pressure. In each increment of pressure is stopped the operation of the pump, waiting for a time of 10 minutes to stabilize, proceeding with the process of reading strain for each strain gage. Design pressure is reached, the pressure increased again in periods of 10 minutes, through values than generated yield stress, flow stress, ultimate tensile strength in tension and finally up to the failure. It was verified that at each step of loading pressure don t exist leaks. 3 Results FEM numerical simulation revealed that the magnitude of the maximum pressure to achieve the allowable yield stress decreases with increasing defect length or depth. As the defect is deeper, the estimation of internal pressure load becomes more significant with increasing the length Lm. Figure 10 shows this behavior, reaching a considerable involvement as they increase the size of Lm in metal loss with d/t= 80%. Figure 10. Internal pressure load and the geometry analyzed. 0,04 load-geometry diagram 0,03 0,03 0,02 0,02 0,01 d/t=10% d/t=20% d/t=33% d/t=50% d/t=80% 0,01 0, The stress generated according to the von Mises criterion was reached at a lower pressure load, when the metal loss was deeper, to remain constant in length Lm. Figure 11 shows this behavior, considering a length of Lm = mm, whose verification was possible because there is the same case between the two methodologies.

Internal pressure load and von Mises stress. stress-load diagram, Lm= mm %d/t 20%d/t 33%d/t 50%d/t 80%d/t internal pressure load, MPa Also, in developing the hydrostatic test, the values of the strain in defects of different sizes was evaluated, which are shown in Table 2. An stress estimate calculated from the maximum strain recorded by extensometer is shown in this table, comparing with the result obtained by the numerical experiment by FEM. Difference between the solution obtained by both methods showed a maximum value of 5.39% for Lm=177.8 mm with d/t=20%. This difference can be assumed to be negligible since the average variation between the two solutions was 0.91%. Table 2. strain and stress obtained from hydrotest data. Strain gage Lm d/t Max strain, Hydrotest Stress obtained by max. strain Stress, FEM mm % mm/mm MPa MPa It is important to say than the final failure in the pipe subjected to internal pressure load in the hydrotest occurs in a region different to the metal loss location in the HAZ (figure 12). This shown than is possible to consider a FEM solution as a reliable evaluation method, because to permit determine internal pressure load than can lead to the pipe to a stress state that reflects its real mechanical behavior.
13 The assessment should include factors to consider possible contingencies that modify the stress-strain behavior of the pipe with metal loss, to ensure safe operation of the same, without affecting people, environment and property. Figure 12. Final failure in the pipe in defect output of the HAZ. 4 Conclusions For all cases examined, the presence of an external metal loss in the HAZ longitudinally oriented, of a pipe subjected to internal pressure limits their ability to withstand pressure load. However, it is possible to work with pressure values that generate locally yield stress without affecting the operation of the pipe. Additionally, a limit value to pressurize the pipe corresponds to the load pressure generated by a local state of stress in the same magnitude as the material flow stress. To match this condition, the pipe could withstand load eventually increased pressure to finally bring it to achieve the ultimate tensile strength, although this condition is not recommended because it is close to the plastic collapse. Reduce as far as possible the pressure load to levels to produce locally yield stress as permissible condition, and pressure load to produce locally flow stress as a condition acceptable limit. It is possible than loads greater than these values may eventually compromise the integrity of the pipe. 5 References [1] T. Belytschko, W. Kam L., B.
