GET A QUOTEFailures result when the tube metal temperature is extremely elevated from a lack of cooling steam or water flow. A typical example is when superheater tubes have not cleared of condensation during boiler start-up, obstructing steam flow. Tube metal temperatures reach combustion gas temperatures of 1600F (870C) or greater which lead to tube
GET A QUOTEfailures of superheater tubes occur most frequently. To prevent tube failures, which causes temporary shutdown of the power plant, assessment of the tubes are always conducted according to power plant preventive maintenance practices 7-8. Boiler tube failures are leading cause of forced outages in fossil-fired boilers.
