AbstractThe failure of the boiler tubes occur due to various reasons like creep, fatigue, corrosion and erosion. This paper highlights a case study of typical premature failure of a final superheater tube of 210 MW thermal power plant boiler. Visual examination, dimensional measurement, chemical analysis, oxide scale thickness measurement, microstructural examination are conducted as part of the investigations. Apart from these investigations, sulfur print, Energy Dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X ray diffraction analysis (XRD) are also conducted to ascertain the probable cause of failure of final super heater tube. Finally it has been concluded that the premature failure of the super heater tube can be attributed to the combination of localized high tube metal temperature and loss of metal from the outer surface due to high temperature corrosion. The corrective actions have also been suggested to avoid this type of failure in near future.

Abstract Alloy 890 provides improved properties over those of Incoloy alloys 800HT and 803 via the addition of silicon and molybdenum to optimize the performance of the alloy. Alloy 890 is typically 43% Ni, 25% Cr, 1.85 Si, 1.5% Mo, and 0.45% Nb, with the balance being principally iron. The alloy offers a significant improvement in resistance to high-temperature corrosion. This datasheet provides information on composition, physical properties, and tensile properties as well as creep. It also includes information on high temperature performance as well as forming, heat treating, and joining. Filing Code: Ni-611. Producer or source: Special Metals Corporation.
