A kind of welding repair method of the nuclear power generating equipment being made up of low-alloy high-strength steel
Technical field
The invention belongs to Welding Repair Technology field, and in particular to a kind of in-service nuclear power generating equipment without post weld heat treatment
Welding repair method.
Background technology
During nuclear power generating equipment is on active service under the various complex working condition environment such as HTHP, neutron irradiation, additional load,
Because the effect of the agine mechaisms such as mechanical fatigue, stress corrosion cracking causes that the local of part of appliance produces defect, sternly
Ghost image rings the safe operation of equipment.To cause the device to normally perform military service function, frequently with REPAIR WELDING or replacing portion
The method of part recovers the function of failure site.
Primary Ioops main equipment (reactor pressure vessel, evaporator, voltage-stablizer etc.) generally uses low-alloy high-strength
Steel material, due to the effect of Thermal Cycle during conventional REPAIR WELDING, repairs position welding heat affected zone and deposits
Hardness is high, poor toughness coarse grain zone (referring to Fig. 1), welding conditions require using post weld heat treatment thick to improve
Crystalline region performance.During multi-layer multi-pass welding, IRCGHAZ is there is also.Referring to Fig. 2, IRCGHAZ is
The critical zone of latter welding bead is superimposed formed region with the coarse grain zone that previous welding bead is formed in same layer.Result of study
Show, IRCGHAZ is the worst region of performance in whole welding point, easily triggers local embrittlement problem, because
This is necessary to take the mode of post weld heat treatment to eliminate coarse grain zone, especially IRCGHAZ.
However, some objective condition limit the application of post weld heat treatment:
1) weldering is made the problems such as the size of equipment, structural complexity, the REPAIR WELDING condition at scene, the deformation of heat treatment
Heat treatment enforcement difficulty increases afterwards, and the REPAIR WELDING particularly with in-service equipment cannot implement postwelding heat in many cases
Treatment;
2) the primary Ioops medium of nuclear power generating equipment has radioactivity, and realizes that post weld heat treatment is often needed as thick-walled vessel
To be heated from inside and outside both sides, personnel's dosage severe overweight often limits the feasibility of post weld heat treatment.
Therefore, in the urgent need to a kind of nuclear power generating equipment for being made of REPAIR WELDING low-alloy high-strength steel for exempting post weld heat treatment
Method.
The content of the invention
The purpose of the present invention is the hot shadow to solve to be caused during the nuclear power generating equipment REPAIR WELDING being made up of low-alloy steel
Hardness present in sound area is high, poor toughness weakness zone, due to objective condition limitation, it is difficult to cannot even implement
Post weld heat treatment improves the technical problem of performance, proposes a kind of to recover the welding of its performance without post weld heat treatment
Restorative procedure.
The welding repair method for exempting post weld heat treatment proposed by the present invention, is welded by effectively control ground floor/second layer
The Thermal Cycle in road, reaches the purpose for improving mother metal thermal stress strength performance, so as to exempt post weld heat treatment.
The welding repair method that the present invention is provided makes ground floor welding bead shape using the Thermal Cycle that second layer welding bead is formed
Into the coarse grain zone of mother metal heat affected area realize drawing process.
Preferably, described ground floor welding bead covers the mother metal of welding position, the second layer welding bead and the second layer with
On welding bead cover the weld seam of preceding layer welding bead accordingly.According to the condition of current welding, third layer and above welding bead
Heat affected area do not further relate to brittle low-alloy steel mother metal, and the mainly weld metal of excellent performance, therefore,
The requirement of the equal solderless wiring energy of welding bead of third layer and the above.
Preferably, the weld heat input of ground floor welding bead and second layer welding bead is 8.25kJ/cm~16.2kJ/cm.According to
Welding conditions, those skilled in the art can select suitable wire feed rate, such as 16.5cm/min~80cm/min
To complete corresponding REPAIR WELDING.
Preferably, the Thermal Cycle that second layer welding bead is formed makes the thick of the mother metal heat affected area of ground floor welding bead formation
Temper is realized between 600 DEG C~700 DEG C in crystalline region.
In actual welding manufacturing process, inevitably there is coarse grain zone, first in the ground floor welding bead adjacent with mother metal
IRCGHAZ can be also produced between the adjacent welding bead of layer;Referring to Fig. 3, the impact flexibility of coarse grain zone and IRCGHAZ is poor,
Microhardness is higher, is the weakest region in welding point.Using the method for the present invention, by using suitable
Weld heat input so that the coarse grain zone of ground floor welding bead and the peak temperature of IRCGHAZ are 600 DEG C~700 DEG C,
The coarse grain zone and IRCGHAZ of ground floor welding bead is realized temper at such a temperature, can preferably improve thick
Crystalline region and the performance of IRCGHAZ.
Preferably, the welding uses GTAW welding methods, and the packing material that welding is used is for female with reparation position
The low-alloy steel TIG welding wires of material matching.
The present invention makes second by the effectively weld heat input of control ground floor/second layer welding bead, welding wire feed rate
The coarse grain zone scope that effective tempered area covering ground floor welding bead below layer welding bead critical zone is formed, can effectively eliminate
Coarse grain zone, particularly IRCGHAZ, so as to reach the tempering to coarse grain zone.To ensure tempering effect, sealing wire
Energy should be in 8.25kJ/cm~16.2kJ/cm.The present invention by controlling weld heat input, the heat of the welding point for obtaining
The impact absorbing energy and manufacturing processes customary of zone of influence coarse grain zone quite, can meet the demand of workmanship completely,
Post weld heat treatment need not be carried out.
