Practical, up-to-date techniques for identifying and eliminating common causes of boiler failure
Filled with more than 200 color images, The Nalco Guide to Boiler Failure Analysis , Second Edition categorizes distinct failure modes that typify nearly all boiler problems and walks you, step by step, through their solutions. Each type of failure is classified according to its location, general description, critical factors, identification, elimination, cautions, and related problems. Real-world case histories are included throughout. This authoritative resource contains new chapters on:
Phosphate corrosion
Stress-assisted corrosion
Steam and condensate damage
Flow-accelerated corrosion
Comprehensive coverage includes:
Water- and steam-formed deposits Short- and long-term overheating Caustic corrosion Low-pH corrosion Hydrogen damage Chelant complexing Oxygen corrosion Corrosion during cleaning Corrosion fatigue cracking Stress corrosion cracking Graphitic corrosion Dealloying Cavitation Erosion Waterwall fireside corrosion High-temperature furnace corrosion Cold-end corrosion Dew point corrosion Fireside corrosion Welding defects
