View MoreNov 13, 2013 · The Atmospheric Fluidized Bed Combustion Boilers have advantages as compared to conventional coal fired boilers in respect of heat transfer, SOx, NOx, emissions and efficiency. In the present study, the failure analysis of bed coil tube, used in atmospheric fluidized bed combustor was studied. The failure studies included physical, chemical and metallurgical analysis and the results analyzed reveal that the failure …
View MoreSolutions: To prevent reoccurrence of caustic gouging, operators should prevent accumulation of excessive deposits and control water chemistry so that boiler water does not locally form caustic in areas where chemicals concentrate. In some instances, where caustic gouging along the top of a sloped tube is associated with steam-water separation, such separation can be avoided by use of ribbed tubes.

View MoreTube failures by erosion in some cases account for about one-third of all tube failures in a boiler. Studies on erosion show that the average rate of reduction in metal thickness of eroding tubes in pulverized coal fired (PC) boilers varies from 2.0 × 10-5 µm/s to 15 × 10-5 µm/s. At the highest rate of erosion, tube failures may occur after
