- Title
Early Failure of Waste Heat Boiler and Redesign to Overcome Premature Failure.
- Authors
Fouad, M.
- Abstract
Analyzing the premature failures that occur during boiler operation is an essential engineering process to keep power plant working smoothly. This article describes the general procedures, techniques and precautions employed in the investigation of boilers that fail in service. It also discusses redesign of the boiler to overcome premature failure. Increasing the maximum allowable load of boiler can be effective to overcome that problem. The paper suggests solutions that, if implemented, can reduce the incidence of boiler unscheduled outages.
