TL02 - Introduction to SCC Failures in Steam Turbines and Solutions
Abstract
Mechanical drive steam Turbines play an important role in petro-chemical plants and these Turbines are protected for safe operation by number of monitoring as well as protection systems. However, a Turbine can suffer severe damage due to a lot of reasons. This paper introduces one of the major Steam Turbine problems, Stress Corrosion Cracking (SCC) along with steam cycle design (Rotor life time evaluation) and effective countermeasures for SCC.
