Explain the other types of tube failure that may occur during long term operation of the boilers.

During long-term operation of boilers, tube failures become more complex and can arise from prolonged exposure to thermal, mechanical, and chemical stresses. These failures often develop gradually and can be due to issues like material degradation, operational inefficiencies, or water chemistry problems. Below are the common types of tube failuresRead More

Explain the types of tube failure that may occur innthe initial stage of boiler operation till stabilization?

During the initial stage of boiler operation, until the system reaches a stable operational phase, several types of tube failures can occur. These failures are often related to start-up conditions, improper handling, design flaws, or material weaknesses. The initial period of boiler operation is critical, as it involves high thermalRead More
