17、 Significance and Use5.1 This test method evaluates the effect of a chemicalenvironment on pipe when in a deflected condition. It has beenfound that effects of chemical environments can be acceleratedby strain induced by deflection. This information is useful andnecessary for the design and applicat

18、ion of buried fiberglasspipe.NOTE 4Pipe of the same diameter but of different wall thicknesseswill develop different strains with the same deflection. Also, pipes havingthe same wall thickness but different constructions making up the wallmay develop different strains with the same deflection.6. App

19、aratus6.1 Use parallel plate apparatus suitable to maintain aconstant deflection on the pipe. In order to achieve uniformstrain along the pipe, use 0.25-in. (6-mm) thick elastomericpads between the parallel plate (channel) surfaces and the pipering (see Note 5). Foil type, single element strain gage

20、s suitablefor strain levels to 1.50 % strain and a length appropriate to thediameter of the pipe are required when initial strain is to bedetermined by Procedure B (see Note 6). An example of theapparatus required is shown in Fig. 1.NOTE 5Elastomeric pads with a hardness of Shore A15 to 70 havebeen

21、used successfully.NOTE 6Strain gages of14 and12-in. (6 and 13-mm) length have beenfound to be effective for pipe diameters 12 through 24 in. (305 through610 mm). Consult the strain gage manufacturer for gage length recom-mendations for other pipe diameters.7. Test Specimens7.1 The test specimens sha

22、ll be ring sections taken from asample of pipe selected at random from a normal productionrun. The test specimens shall have a minimum length of onenominal pipe diameter or 12 in. (300 mm) 6 5 %, whicheveris less.8. Test Conditions8.1 The standard temperature shall be 73.4 6 3.6F (23 62C).9. Procedu

24、ages.9.2 Determination of Test Level:9.2.1 Test Procedure A:9.2.1.1 In accordance with Practice D3567 measure the wallthickness to the nearest 0.001 in. (0.025 mm) in at least fiveequally spaced places along the bottom of the pipe specimen ona line parallel with the pipe axis, and average the measur

25、e-ments.9.2.1.2 In accordance with Practice D3567 measure thevertical inside diameter to the nearest 0.01 in. (0.25 mm) atboth ends prior to deflection and average the measurements.NOTE 7It is recommended that the vertical inside diameter bemeasured with the axis vertical.9.2.1.3 Place the pipe spec

26、imen in the test apparatus (Fig. 1)with the measured wall thicknesses at the bottom and applyforce to the apparatus to deflect the specimen while keeping thetop and bottom plates (channels) of the apparatus as nearparallel as possible. When the desired deflection is obtained,lock the apparatus to ma

27、intain the specimen in the deflectedcondition.NOTE 8Alignment of the specimen within the channels is critical. Thechannels must not only be parallel with the load points 180 opposite, butthe pipe must be centered between the rods.9.2.1.4 Measure the vertical inside diameter of the deflectedpipe spec

28、imen at both ends to the nearest 0.01 in. (0.25 mm).Average the measurements and determine the deflection bysubtracting the average vertical inside diameter after deflectionfrom the measurement determined in 9.2.1.2.9.2.1.5 Calculate the initial strain level using the followingequation which include

29、s compensation for increased horizontaldiameter with increasing deflection.FIG. 1 Strain-Corrosion Test ApparatusD3681 122T5428t!D!SDm1D2D2where:T= initial strain, %,t = average wall thickness at bottom, in. (mm),D = average deflection, in. (mm),Dm= mean diameter, in. (mm) D+t,andD= average inside p

30、ipe diameeter, free state, in. (mm).NOTE 9The calculation assumes that the neutral axis is at the pipewall midpoint. For pipe wall constructions that produce an altered neutralaxis position, it may be necessary to evaluate results substituting 2 y fort.(y is the distance from the inside pipe surface

31、 to the neutral axis.)Neutral axis position must be determined with strain gage couples. Seealso Note 11.9.2.2 Procedure B:9.2.2.1 Carefully align and attach three strain gages on theinside bottom surface of the pipe specimen in the circumfer-ential direction to measure initial circumferential strai

32、ns. Placethe gages perpendicular to the pipe axis as follows: one in themiddle and the other two at the quarter points along the invertof the specimen.The adhesive used to attach the gages shall notcover more than 37 % of the pipe specimen length along theinvert. Zero-in the gages while the pipe is

33、circular in shape.NOTE 10It is recommended that the pipe specimen be placed with itsaxis vertical to maintain roundness when the bridge is balanced to “zero”the instrument.9.2.2.2 After installing the strain gages, place the specimenin the test apparatus (see Fig. 1) with the strain gages at thebott

34、om. Extreme care should be taken to ensure that the gagesare located at the point of maximum strain (6 oclock position).NOTE 11Alignment of the specimen within the channels is critical.The channels must not only be parallel with the load points 180 opposite,but the pipe must be centered between the

35、rods.9.2.2.3 Apply force to the apparatus to deflect the specimenwhile keeping the top and bottom plates (channels) of theapparatus as parallel as possible. When the desired strain levelis reached, lock the apparatus to maintain the specimen in thedeflected condition. Read the gages as soon as the a

36、pparatus islocked. Initial strain should be recorded within 2 min afterlocking the apparatus.At least two gages shall read within 5 %of each other for a valid experiment. If any gage reads morethan 5 % from the average of the other two gages, disregard theindication unless thickness verification imp

37、lies the strain gagereading was accurate. Average the valid gage indications, andrecord as initial (indicated) strain. In addition, measure andrecord the deflection.9.3 When using ProcedureA, verify the strain level by usingstrain gages as described in Procedure B for at least onespecimen in every n

38、ine. Conversely, when using Procedure B,verify the strain level by measurement and calculation asdescribed in Procedure A for at least one specimen in everynine. If the calculated strain and the indicated strain do not varymore than 10 %, consider the strain levels accurate withinnormal experimental

39、 error.NOTE 12Deflections in excess of 28 % of diameter may cause localflattening of the pipe and lead to erratic strain distribution. For deflectionsapproaching 28 % improved accuracy is obtained by use of strain gages orby establishing, for a typical pipe, a calibration of deflection versusmeasure

40、d strain. This calibration technique is also useful at all deflectionlevels as a check of the calculations by 9.2.1.5, which assumes neutral axisat pipe wall midpoint.9.4 After the initial strain is obtained using Procedure A orB, install chemically inert dams using a flexible sealant so thatonly th

41、e interior surface of the pipe will be exposed to the testenvironment. The dams shall not add support to the pipespecimen.9.5 Place the apparatus containing the specimen in a chemi-cally resistant trough or pan and introduce the test solution.Thesolution should be added within 30 min of locking thea

42、pparatus and the time should be recorded from the addition ofthe solution. (WarningSince the failure mode could becatastrophic, precautions should be taken to contain anysudden leakage that may occur. The use of spacers (such as,wooden blocks) under the apparatus is suggested to reduceattack of the

43、apparatus after failure of the sample.)9.6 Periodically check and maintain the test solution within65 % of the specified strength or concentration for theduration of the test. Maintain the level at a depth of not lessthan 1 in. (25.4 mm) during the period of the test.NOTE 13As some solutions become

44、more concentrated with theevaporation of water, care must be exercised in replenishment to preventa build-up in strength. It may be necessary, with some reagents, toperiodically clean the deflected specimen and replace the test solution witha fresh mixture. The use of plastic film, cut carefully to

45、fit between thedams and floated on the top of the test solution, has been found helpful inreducing evaporation.9.7 Record the following data:9.7.1 Average pipe wall thickness,9.7.2 Average inside pipe diameter before deflection,9.7.3 Average inside pipe diameter after deflection,9.7.4 Percent deflec

46、tion,9.7.5 Initial strain and method of determination,9.7.6 Type, location, and time of any distress of the pipewall, and9.7.7 Time to end point. Times are measured from theaddition of solution.9.8 To determine the regression line and the lower confi-dence level for the report, a minimum of 18 sampl

47、es isrequired. Distribution of data points should be as follows:Hours Failure Points10 to 1000 at least 41000 to 6000 at least 3After 6000 at least 3After 10 000 at least 1D3681 1239.9 Perform inspection of the test samples as follows:Hours Inspect at Least10 to 20 every 1 h20 to 40 every 2 h40 to 6

48、0 every 4 h60 to 100 every 8 h100 to 600 every 24 h600 to 6000 every 48 hAfter 6000 every weekRecord the time to end point for each specimen.NOTE 14The use of electronic timers is considered highly desirable inmonitoring failure time particularly on short term tests.9.10 Analyze the test results by

49、using for each specimen, thelogarithm of the strain in percent and the logarithm of thetime-to-failure in hours as described in Annex A1. Calculatethe strain at 50 years (YL).9.11 Those specimens that have not failed after more than10 000 h may be included as failures to establish the regres-sion line. Use of these data points may result in a lower orhigher extrapolated strain. In either case the requirements of9.14 must be satisfied.NOTE 15Non-failed specimens may be left under test and the regres-sion line recalculated as failures a
