The welded joint of P91 and P92 steel plate were subjected to the varying post weld heat-treatment (PWHT) including the post weld heat treatment (PWHT) and re-austenitizing based tempering (PWNT). A comparative study was performed related to the microstructure evolution in fusion zone (FZ) of both the welded joint using the scanning electron microscope and optical microscope in a different condition of heat treatment. The hardness test of the FZ for both joints was also conducted in a different condition of heat treatment. P92 steel welded joint have observed the higher tendency of the δ ferrite formation that led to the great variation in hardness of the P92 FZ. The homogeneous microstructure (absence of δ ferrite) and acceptable hardness was observed after the PWNT treatment for both the welded joint.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Characterization of weld fusion zone for TIG welded P91 and P92 steels}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/109143/PDF/AMM-2018-4-24-Pandey.pdf}, doi={10.24425/amm.2018.125102}, keywords={P91, P92, fusion zone, microstructure, TIG}, }
