Flow-accelerated corrosion (FAC) is a phenomenon that results in metal loss from piping, vessels and equipment made of carbon steel. This metal loss can lead to stress to occur at the steam inlet nozzle side, where it is located at the side of the deaerator. This paper presents a method to find the thickness critical of the steam inlet nozzle. A Finite Element (FE) model of the pressure vessel head was created to perform a stress analysis using NX Nastran 5.0. By applying materials properties, loads and constraints to the model, the results obtained are required to satisfy the following criterion: vonMises≥SySy=YieldStrength The results obtained from the stress analysis were analyzed to obtain a corrosion allowance and it was compared to the recommended value from a normal deaerator design, which is roughly 0.25 inches. From the FE model, and by continuously reducing the thickness of the nozzle, it was determined that the corrosion allowance is 0.229 inches, and that the percentage error was 8.4%.

A new prediction model for the oxidation layer thickness of carbon steel is developed, that is based on the parabolic time law of corrosion and the mass transport balance theory. The relationship between the oxidation layer thickness and temperature, pH, and flow velocity is discussed. The predicted results show that the oxidation layer thickness increases exponentially with increasing temperature and decreases exponentially with increasing flow velocity. The oxidation layer thickness increases with increasing pH until pH=10.5 and then decreases. The predicted results agree with experimental results.
