The Ni-Fe alloy consumable that applies to the welding of 9% nickel steel for LNG storage tanks is highly susceptible to solidification cracks. To evaluate susceptibilities such as the brittleness temperature range (BTR), a Trans-Varestraint test is generally conducted. However, it is difficult to evaluate the minimum strain value for the BTR and the real temperature at both ends of a solidification crack in a conventional Trans-Varestraint test because these values are measured indirectly. In this study, we propose determining the temperature range by conducting in-situ observations during a Trans-Varestraint test using a high-speed camera and two-color pyrometry so that the temperature range can be measured directly from the temperatures at both ends of the crack. Furthermore, we measured the augmented strain from the time elapsed since the initiation of bending. This method allowed us to successfully measure the augmented strain and the temperature range in the Trans-Varestraint test and to determine the BTR more accurately.
