Thermal Power Generation

In response to the pipe wall thinning damage experienced in power plants in 2004, the Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers (JSME) has started activities to develop technical standards on the pipe wall thinning management. The first edition of the JSME rules on pipe wall thinning management for thermal power generation facilities (JSME S TB1-2006 [1]) was issued in March 2006, and its latest edition will be issued in 2007, which describes the technical requirements to meet the JSME performance-based rules for pipe wall thinning management (JSME S CA-1 2005 [2]). Based on 24,774 inspection data obtained at the thermal power plants in Japan, the latest JSME rules will show the specific attention to the need for inspection of piping systems that are susceptible to the wall thinning damage. The JSME rules describe the selection of thickness measurement locations such as downstream of piping configurations that produce turbulence, downstream of orifices, downstream of control valves, and they describe the periodic inspections including the first inspection to be scheduled taking the wall thinning rate data at the equivalent locations into consideration. The JSME rules stipulate some available inspection methods such as ultrasonic scanning, radiographic profile, eddy current and potential drop technique. This paper presents outline of the JSME rules including basic philosophy, technical requirements on the inspection and testing practices and the relation with the regulations in Japan.

Recently, prospective direction of the combustion theory development is the preparation of fuel compositions and study of the composite fuels ignition characteristics, for example, in the form of emulsions and suspensions. Such fuels and their combustion processes are characterized by higher environmental, energy, economic, and operational properties. Of great interest is the use of gel fuels prepared by thickening emulsions and suspensions to the state of elastically deformable materials for the aerospace industry and thermal power engineering. Gel fuels have advantages over widespread liquid fuels in environmental and fire safety aspects of storage processes, transportation, and combustion.
