Abstract:

Taking into account the history of problems concerning high-strength low-alloyed (HSLA) steel used for manufacturing of penstocks (partly presented by authors in previous studies), this paper is oriented toward specifics on structural integrity assessment of construction in question. Experimental testing of parent material, i.e. HSLA steel, such as microstructure analysis, impact toughness testing and hardness measuring provide insight into characteristics of parent material properties. Considering geometry of penstock and specific requirements, finite element method (FEM), i.e. ABAQUS, was used to assess the structural integrity of penstock as a whole, specific the longitudinal welded joint under the different internal (working) pressure. It should be emphasized that a slight undermatching effect was investigated by FEM approach in this case. Focus is being put on plastic deformation investigation on aforementioned welded joint under maximum internal pressure of 120 bar.
