Corrosion Testing of Metals- Is it Needed?

This paper identifies the manufacturing and chemistry changes for copper alloys and stainless steels over the last 30 years and the impact on resistance. It also suggests some tests that can be specified to ensure that you get what you expect for that alloy.

Selecting Tubing Materials for Power Generation Heat Exchangers

A power plant engineer has many choices when selecting tubing materials for condensers, feedwater heaters, or balance-of-plant (BOP) applications. This article discusses forms and causes of corrosion that can lead to tubing failures and identifies factors that must be considered when selecting a tube material.

Stainless Steel Feedwater and Condenser Tubing- Expectations, Results, and Choices

This paper summarizes the basic ASTM/ASME requirements with many of the additional property and testing options available to ensure reliable service for today’s power plant environment. It identifies the advantages and disadvantages of each and provides suggestions on what could be specified to ensure the best value tubing for your application.
