Failure analysis of bolt fracture in GGH guide bearing end cover pressure plate in a thermal power plant
Abstract Gas gas reheater is an important device for waste heat recovery and flue gas purification in thermal power plant. In this paper, the fracture failure reason of pressing plate bolt of guide bearing end cover of flue gas reheater in thermal power plant is analyzed. The results of optical microscope analysis show that there is no obvious abnormality in the metallographic structure of the two guide bearing bolts. The mechanical analysis results show that the hardness value, tensile strength and yield strength meet the requirements of relevant standards. SEM analysis showed that the fracture began at the root of the thread. The research results can provide reference for the operation and maintenance of flue gas reheater in relevant enterprises.
