Proceedings: Third international conference on boiler tube failures in fossil plants
The objectives of the conference were to review, document and transfer technology on all aspects of BTF. To meet these objectives, papers and presentations were provided on the following topics: general overview of BTF around the world; waterwall fireside corrosion; corrosion fatigue; root cause analysis; non-destructive evaluation for BTF; superheater failures; condition assessment and data acquisition; and boiler tube failure reduction programs. Each topic was discussed in a separate conference session. Discussions followed each paper and are included in the proceedings. A questionnaire was completed by the attendees on BTF and the remaining needs for research and development. The results are provided in Appendix A.
