The Great Minds of Carbon Equivalent. Part lll: The Evolution of Carbon Equivalent Equations. Wesley Wang, Senior Engineer Materials Group, EWI. In welding, carbon equivalent (CE) calculations are used to predict heat affected zone (HAZ) hardenability in steels.
In 1958, eighteen years after Dearden and O’Neill’s initial proposal on carbon equivalent (CE), the concept was accepted by British Standard BS2642[1]. The standard was then amended to include the following modified version of their equation: C+Si/24+Mn/6+Cr/5+Ni/13+. CE = (1) V/5+Mo/4+Cu/15.
CEN is given by: Yurioka [8] illustrated a good correlation between P cm and CEN for structural steels, low-alloy steels (Ni-Cr-Mo type) and carbon steels, provided the carbon content was less than 0.17 wt%. From this comparison the following relationship was derived: CEN = 2P cm - 0.092 (C ≤ 0.17%)
By this study, the usage of carbon equivalent in low alloy steel weld metals manufactured through SMAW are proved and furthered to steel weld metals. Generally, carbon equations are sensitive to UTS (ultimate tensile strength), YS (yield strength), HRD (hardness).
Various formulas for carbon equivalents were proposed over the years. The two most common ones are the Carbon Equivalent Value (CEV) and Carbon Equivalent Thyssen (CET). The CEV was introduced by the International Institute for Welding (IIW) in 1967 and was the standard for many years.
