Description
Summary:Failures of boiler pressure parts, which working in high temperature and pressure conditions are often caused by overheating or corrosion. These two parameters are decisive, but not the only ones. Local stress concentration also depends on the type of headers support and external loads from pipelines. Boiler pressure parts subjected to all loads mentioned before are steam superheaters. Thermal expansion, high pressure and temperature lead to shortening superheaters lifetime. In the places with significant stress caused by all load combinations it is difficult to predict creep strains and material structure changes. This paper shows superheater in which considering external loads from pipeline and their influence on the stress concentration in the superheater tubes. This article also shows steel S304H creep analysis for 100k [h] results and creep equation with experimental developed constants.
