Abstract

Abstract The multi-pass fillet welds of casing pipe were welded onto the in-service pipeline, which is widely used in pipeline repairs. However, the influence of welding heat input of B-type sleeve circumferential fillet weld on the temperature and stress field at the pipe circumferential weld is still unclear. In this paper, a double ellipsoid heat source model is developed to investigate the weld temperature field, residual stress field, and deformation field of the repair welding in service. The results show that the increase of weld heat input can effectively increase the size of the weld pool and the size of the high-temperature zone of the B-type sleeve circumferential fillet weld. And the peak temperature of the inner wall of the pipe girth weld increases with the increase of welding heat input of the sleeve circumferential fillet weld. The axial stress peak of the inner wall of the pipe girth weld reduces with the increase of welding heat input of sleeve circumferential fillet weld, and the axial deformation peak of the inner wall of the pipe girth weld increases first and then decreases with the increase of welding heat input of sleeve circumferential fillet weld.
