Slide 75-Inspection of high weight parts NON Destructive test for the accompanying thing Economizer headers, loops, Piping from economizer to steam drum,. Steam drum. Heater water dividers, screen, rooftop divider, feeders, riser ,Water dividers headers. Immersion steam pipe. Essential, auxiliary super radiator. Associating channel between essential superheater and optional superheater. Reheater. Primary SH steam funnels **Inspection thing External visual examination Internal visual assessment with endoscope UT for thickness estimations by UT MT and UT on circumferential welds MT on channeling connections Metallographic investigation by plastic reproductions MT on spouts welds of the curl tubes MT on spouts welds to the shell of the gulf/outlet pipe
Slide 8the base required thickness t = least required thickness. D = outside distance across of chamber. e = thickness consider for extended tube closes. P = greatest reasonable working weight. S = greatest suitable anxiety esteem at the plan temperature of the metal.
Slide 9Design/Operating Information for computation of residual time in view of thickness Design data material sort or review Nominal outside breadth Designing weight Design life Deign temperature Original ostensible thickness Operating data Maximum tube metal temperature Normal working weight Original measured least thickness Metal diminishing rate Thickness estimations of water divider tubes heater
Slide 10Minimum required thickness for SA178-c Minimum required thickness for various working conditions for materials SA178-c
Slide 116-Sample tube - Destructive test for the Sample tube For Water Wall ,SR and RH tubes Life analyze in light of check of metal structure, thickness, inward scale, and so on Sample tube takes as per the consequence of hardness estimation Investigation Items Visual assessment Non ruinous test Chemical examination Measurement of the tube measurement Hardness estimation Cross sectional microstructure perception Steam oxidation perception Creep break test Measurement of the internal scale thickness Information Material of Sample tube measurement
Slide 12test tubes Thinning of lump zone Internal surface scale External surface scale
Slide 13Optical micrograph Optical micrograph of non-bluged zones tube divider side indicating ferrite –pearlite structure with no inside deformities
Slide 14Normal and crumbled microstructure ordinary microstructure ( great condition tube) Which demonstrates a run of the mill ferritic pearlitic structure weakened microstructure which demonstrates the disintegration of the pearlitic settlements
Slide 167-Visual review for different parts of kettle Burner Wind Box Hanger for riser pipe Outer packaging Skin packaging Buckstay
Slide 178-Water Quality Survey This investigation to affirm the reason for the scale era Inspection things Check of research center examination strategy for quality things Confirmation of water quality outcomes at past load operation Check of instrument condition on inspecting rack utilized for water quality control Confirmation of PH esteem and iron/copper adjust in the cycle
Slide 189-Visual Inspection for aux Equipment This review to affirm the reason for the scale era Condenser hot well. Condenser tube side Deaerator. LP-nourish water warmer. Bolster water tank. HP-nourish water radiator.
Slide 1910-high weight parts Inspection points of interest Economizer headers ,loops, Piping from economizer to steam drum, Steam drum Furnace water dividers, screen, rooftop divider, feeders, riser ,Water dividers headers Saturation steam pipe Primary, auxiliary superheater Connecting channel between essential super warmer and optional superheater Reheater Main SH steam funnels
