2、 of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This specification2covers seamless austenitic steel pipeintended for high-temperature service.Am
3、ong the gradescovered are H grades and nitrogen grades that are specificallyintended for high-temperature service.NOTE1This specification was originally developed for use for pipingin the central stations of electric-power generating thermal plants.However,its use is not restricted to such applicati
4、ons and it may be usedin other applications for which the attributes of the materials,as defined bythis specification,are appropriate.1.2 Optional supplementary requirements(S1 through S10)are provided.These supplementary requirements specify addi-tional tests that will be made only when stated in t
5、he order,together with the number of such tests required.1.3 Grades TP321 and TP321H have lower strength require-ments for nominal wall thicknesses greater than38in.9.5mm.1.4 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard.Within the text,theSI units
