Hello all,
As Per ASME Sec VIII, appendix R preheat criteria are determined for different PNumbers. 
But in case of welding of one BM from PNumber A to PNumber B, how can we determine the preheat criteria (temperature and thickness)?

Thanks,

Vishwas Keskar

Apply the rules applicable for Higher P.No. of the two materials  being welded.
P no 4 to P No 5A _ Apply criteria for P NO 5A materilas.  Also consider pre heating addresed in WPS

Dear friend,

when ever joining of two different P nos ( 5A+4) welding, following points to be  taken care :
1, Pre heating temp shall be maintained as higher Pno ( 5A)
2, PWHT  temp shall be maintained as per higher Pno(5A)
3, Consumable shall be maintained as per lower Pno( 4)

PWHT depends on condition and the selection of suitable welding consumable may be higher or lower P.No. It also depends on the P.No lower critical temperature and Tempering temperature and select buttering with Nickel consumable.

Thanks & Regards
