High Temperature Corrosion and Oxidation

Mehr zum Buch

Focusing on the challenges faced in thermal power plants, the book examines the premature failure of coal-fired boiler components due to high-temperature oxidation, corrosion, and erosion-corrosion, which can cause significant economic losses. It highlights that these issues contribute to a substantial amount of downtime in power generation. The text offers a comprehensive review of high-temperature materials and their degradation, along with protective strategies such as material selection, environmental adjustments, and various coatings to mitigate these failures.
