The Oxygen Pressure Surge Test (OPST) is considered to be best practice for evaluating the burn out safety of plant components and testing the compatibility of nonmetallic materials for oxygen service. Nevertheless, there are only a few laboratories worldwide performing the OPST. The Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing (BAM) already operates oxygen pressure surge test facilities with maximum OPST pressures of 450 bar.
However, to ensure technical innovation and to enhance research and development, the decision was made to develop a new and large-scale oxygen pressure surge test facility. Due to the size and the high potential impact energies, the test facility is located outside of Berlin at BAM Test Site for Technical Safety (TTS), where large scale testing is carried out. In addition to an intended maximum OPST pressure of 750 bar, there is the possibility of testing industrial equipment with large inner volumes and diameters. The new quick opening valve constitutes the core of the system and was developed by BAM. It allows to perform tests with the standardized pressure rise times of 15 ms to 20 ms or with adjustable pressure rise times at higher or lower values. As a result, it is possible to provide customized test parameters for specific practical applications as well as research projects.
This presentation shows the status quo of this unique test facility, its performance, its technical specifications, and its new possibilities for research and development for a long term enhancement of burn out safety in oxygen application.
Eisenaluminide eignen sich als Werkstoff für sicherheitsrelevante Komponenten welche hohen thermischen, mechanischen und korrosiven Belastungen ausgesetzt sind. Mit ihrer geringen Dichte und der kostengünstigen Verfügbarkeit der Legierungsbestandteile bieten sie ein hohes Marktpotenzial und eignen sich als Substitutionswerkstoff konventioneller Hochtemperaturwerkstoffe. Durch die Verwendung von Dauerformen im Kokillenguss lassen sich FeAl-Bauteile bereits äußerst wirtschaftlich herstellen. Das dabei entstehende komplexe, mehrphasige, sehr feinkörnige Gefüge mit harten Ausscheidungen und hohen Festigkeiten erschwert jedoch eine nachfolgende spanende Bearbeitung mit hohen Belastungen auf Werkzeug und Bauteiloberfläche. Um eine gesamtheitlich wirtschaftliche Herstellungsroute zu ermöglichen, sollen im Hinblick auf die erschwerte Zerspanbarkeit geeignete Werkzeuge und Fräsprozesse entwickelt werden. Durch die Verwendung des hybriden Bearbeitungsverfahrens des ultraschallunterstützten Fräsens können diese Ziele unter Einhaltung der hohen Anforderung an die Oberflächenintegrität sicherheitsrelevanter Bauteile erreicht werden.
WAAM process influences on local microstructure and residual stresses in high-strength steels
(2021)
High-strength fine-grain structural steels have great potential for weight optimization of many modern engineering structures. Efficient manufacturing can be achieved here above all by Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM). First commercial high-strength welding consumables for WAAM are already available. Due to a lack of knowledge and guidelines for the industry regarding welding residual stresses and component safety in manufacturing and operation, their application is still severely limited. Residual stresses play a crucial role here, as the special microstructure of high-strength steels is sensitive to cold cracking.
For this reason, process- and material-related influences, as well as the design effects on residual stress formation, are being investigated in a project funded by the AiF (FOSTA P1380/IGF 21162 BG). This study focuses on determining the interactions between heat control during WAAM process, resulting hardness, microstructure, and residual stresses, analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Welding experiments using geometrically similar AM specimens show that, with regard to the heat input, the energy per unit length in particular leads to significantly affected cooling times and microstructures and causes pronounced localized effects in terms of residual stresses in the upper weld beads.

Nickel-iron-alloy modification to enhance additively welded microstructure for subsequent milling
(2021)
The aerospace industry uses nickel-iron-alloys to create moulding tools for composite materials because of the low coefficient of thermal expansion. These tools have a large-sized and complex structure, making them cost-intensive and difficult to manufacture. Therefore, the focus is set on additive manufacturing, which can additionally enable the repair of components in order to eliminate local defects. However, the process usually results in a heterogeneous microstructure and anisotropic mechanical properties. As there is a high demand for a precise and exact fit of the precision moulds and thus the surface quality, the welded components must be subsequently machined. Nickel-iron alloys are difficult to machine and an inhomogeneous microstructure also leads to unstable cutting forces.
Consequently, a refinement and homogenisation of the microstructure morphology is achieved through specific alloy modifications in order to stabilise and improve the subsequent machining process. Studies on the refinement of FeNi 36 based on vacuum arc melting furnaces are used as a starting point. Therefore, titanium and niobium are chosen as modification elements with a maximum 1 % weight percent and are added to nickel-iron base alloy. The elements are alloyed and build-up welded by using plasma-transferred-arc welding. The resulting microstructure morphology of the welded wall structure and the machining properties are then determined. Furthermore, the influence on the coefficient of thermal expansion is investigated in connection with the modification and the welding process itself. It can be shown that even small amounts of niobium have a significant influence on the structural morphology of the welded layers during plasma-transferred-arc welding.
The supply and processing of materials for highly stressed components are usually cost-intensive. Efforts to achieve cost and resource efficiency lead to more complex structures and contours. Additive manufacturing steps for component repair and production offer significant economic advantages. Machining needs to be coordinated with additive manufacturing steps in a complementary way to produce functional surfaces suitable for the demands. Regarding inhomogeneity and anisotropy of the microstructure and properties as well as production-related stresses, a great deal of knowledge is still required for efficient use by small- and medium-size enterprises, especially for the interactions of subsequent machining of these difficult-to-machine materials. Therefore, investigations on these influences and interactions were carried out using a highly innovative cost-intensive NiCrMo alloy (IN725). These alloys are applied for claddings as well as for additive component manufacturing and repair welding using gas metal arc welding processes. For the welded specimens, the adequate solidification morphology, microstructure and property profile were investigated. The machinability in terms of finishing milling of the welded surfaces and comparative analyses for ultrasonic-assisted milling processes was examined focussing on surface integrity. It was shown that appropriate cutting parameters and superimposed oscillating of the milling tool in the direction of the tool rotation significantly reduce the mechanical loads for tool and workpiece surface. This contributes to ensure a high surface integrity, especially when cutting has to be carried out without cooling lubricants.
High-strength fine-grained structural steels have great potential for weight-optimized, efficient structures in many modern steel applications. Further advances in efficiency can be achieved through additive manufacturing and bionic design. Commercial high-strength filler materials for wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) are already provided by the consumable producers. Today, application would be strictly limited due to absence of quantitative findings or any guidelines for the industry regarding welding-related stresses and component safety during manufacturing and service. Hence, process- and material-related influences and design-related restraint conditions associated with formation of residual stresses and cold cracking risk are investigated. The aim is the accessibility of special WAAM self-restraining cold cracking tests and easy applicable processing recommendations, enabling an economical, fit-for-purpose and crack-safe WAAM of high-strength steels. This first study focuses on determination of interactions between WAAM process parameters, resulting layer geometry, microstructure and residual stresses, analyzed via X-ray diffraction. Defined reference specimens are automated welded using a special WAAM solid wire (yield strength >820 MPa). Geometric properties can be specifically adjusted by wire feed and welding speed, but cannot be varied arbitrarily, since a high heat input causes local overheating, inadmissible changes of microstructure and mechanical properties, defects and comparable high tensile residual stresses.
For higher operational temperatures and pressures required in petrochemical plants, the modified 13CrMoV9-10 steel was developed providing high resistance against creep and compressed hydrogen. Extreme care during the welding procedure is necessary for this steel, attributed to low toughness, high strength in as-welded state, and increased susceptibility to stress relief cracking (SRC) during post-weld heat treatment (PWHT). Previous research of SRC in creep-resistant steels discussed mainly thermal and metallurgical factors. Few previous findings addressed the influences of welding procedure on crack formation during PWHT considering real-life manufacturing conditions. These investigations focus on effects of welding heat control on stresses during welding and subsequent PWHT operations close to realistic restraint and heat dissipation conditions using a special 3D testing facility, which was presented in parts I and II of this contribution. Part III addresses investigations on residual stress evolution affecting crack formation and discusses the transferability of results from large-scale testing to laboratory-scale. Experiments with test set-ups at different scales under diverse rigidity conditions and an assessment of the residual stresses of the weld-specimens using X-ray (surface near) and neutron diffraction analysis (bulk) were performed. This study aims to provide a way of investigating the SRC behaviour considering component-specific residual stresses via small-scale testing concepts instead of expensive weld mock-ups.
