Methodology to evaluate stress corrosion cracking in ethanol environments, applied to circumferential welds on API 5 L steel pipelines
This work presents an experimental methodology developed to perform fatigue crack growth (FCG) and slow strain rate (SSR) tests in ethanol environments aiming to evaluate stress corrosion cracking (SCC) susceptibility of circumferential welds on steel pipelines. FCG and SSR specimens were machined f...

description | This work presents an experimental methodology developed to perform fatigue crack growth (FCG) and slow strain rate (SSR) tests in ethanol environments aiming to evaluate stress corrosion cracking (SCC) susceptibility of circumferential welds on steel pipelines. FCG and SSR specimens were machined from a welded pipe and the notches were properly designed to promote crack propagation in the different regions of the weld. Tests were carried out keeping the crack-tip region fully immersed in an ethanol solution, which was fueled by a circulation system to ensure replenishment and aeration throughout the test. When applied to a welded API X70 steel pipe, this experimental methodology proved to be an efficient and simple method to achieve relevant and important informations on environmentally assisted crack growth and SCC susceptibility. The method developed here is inserted in the aspects as follows: • Perform tests in slow strain rate and cyclic bend loading in circulating ethanol, to promote the fracture in the different regions of a circumferential weld joint of a steel pipe. • Investigate sensitivity to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of these different weld regions in ethanolic environment. • This method presents constructive details of a suitable apparatus which the experiments can be easily replicated. |
