Failures or forced shutdowns in power plants are often due to boilers, and particularly failure of boiler tubes. This comprehensive resource deals with the subject of failure investigation of boiler tubes from basic fundamentals to practical applications. Coverage...
This procedure has been developed by a TAPPI Task Group to offer a basis for evaluating the skills of technicians who measure the thickness of boiler tubes from the external surface using manual instruments. Use of this procedure is prudent when surveying the thickness of recovery...
This specification covers boiler tube expanders of the self-feeding parallel rolling type for use in expanding carbon steel and alloy steel tubes in all types of boilers. Tube expanders shall be of the following types and classes, as specified (see 6.2): Type I -...
1.1 This specification2 covers several grades of minimum-wall-thickne
1.1 This specification2 covers seamless ferritic and austenitic steel boiler, superheater, and heat-exchanger tubes, designated Grades T5, TP304, etc. These steels are listed in Tables 1 and 2. 1.2 Grades containing the letter, H, in their designation, have requirements different from...
This guide covers standard specifications for minimum-wall-thickne
This specification2 covers minimum-wall-thickne
1.1 This specification2 covers nominal-wall-thickne
1.1 This specification2 covers seamless ferritic and austenitic steel boiler, superheater, and heat-exchanger tubes, designated Grades T5, TP304, etc. These steels are listed in Tables 1 and 2. 1.2 Grades containing the letter, H, in their designation, have requirements different from...
4.1 The weight per unit area measurement is an indication of the relative cleanliness or dirtiness of the boiler. It is used to determine the effectiveness of the boiler chemical treatment program and to determine the need for chemically cleaning the boiler systems. Allowing...
FOREWORD This report provides a development of design rules for advanced power plant boilers that pertain to fireside corrosion, erosion and steam oxidation of boiler tubes. These boilers will operate at advanced steam conditions, include discussion of CO2 capture and...
This Technical Information Paper (TIP) covers guidelines to assure that boiler tubes for new construction and replacement, both in recovery and other boilers, are metallurgically sound and free from potentially harmful defects. Special emphasis is placed on obtaining tubing of...
Introduction Deposits or scale on the water/steam sides of boiler tubes result from in situ oxidation of the tube material, transport and precipitation of corrosion products from other locations within the system, and precipitation of mineral impurities from the boiler...
1.1 This specification2 covers seamless ferritic and austenitic steel boiler, superheater, and heat-exchanger tubes, designated Grades T5, TP304, etc. These steels are listed in Tables 1 and 2. 1.2 Grades containing the letter, H, in their designation, have requirements different from...
This Standard specifies requirements for the stainless steel tubes (hereafter referred to as tubes) used for exchanging heat between the inside and outside of the tube, such as superheater tubes of boilers, and heat exchanger tubes, condenser tubes...
This Standard specifies requirements for the carbon steel tubes (hereafter referred to as tubes) used for exchanging heat between the inside and outside of the tube, such as water tubes, smoke tubes, superheater tubes and air preheater tubes, etc. of...
This Standard specifies requirements for the alloy steel tubes (hereafter referred to as tubes) used for exchanging heat between the inside and outside of the tube, such as water tubes, smoke tubes, superheater tubes and air preheater tubes, etc. of...
