Production of thick steel sheet for high-pressure equipment operating at temperatures from 450°C to–50°C

详细

The industrial production of low-carbon microalloyed steel plates (thickness 150–200 mm) on the NLMK Dansteel 420 reversible rolling mill is considered. Such plates are intended for operation at temperatures between–50 and +450°C in high-pressure equipment. The technologies used for steel casting and thick-sheet production ensure stable strength over the whole sheet thickness at 20–450°C, with satisfactory impact strength between +40 and–50°C. The research results are used in certification on the basis of TUV Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) DGR 2014/68/EU and the AD2000 directive regarding the production of rolled P355N, P355NH, P355NL1, and P355NL2 steel sheet of thickness up to 200 mm.
