Due to a dramatic increase in the interest and understanding of boiler-tube failure analysis, this edition has been updated and expanded. New features include material on fluid dynamics, heat transfer and stress calculations; remaining life assessment of boilers being used beyond their original design expectations; mechanical engineering aspects of boiler design; more information on fatigue, creep, thermal stress for carbon as well as stainless steels; suggestions to prevent future failures.

Booknews Second edition of a handbook describing the types of metallurgical failures common to boilers. Using case histories of boiler shutdowns, presents a variety of causes for boiler tube failure, including corrosion, oxidation, and exfoliation, and discusses these problems in the context of fluid dynamics, heat transfer, and stress calculations. Also reviews the fundamentals of metallurgy, and includes an end-of-life assessment protocol for plant equipment used beyond original design specifications. Annotation c.
