The document discusses various issues that can arise from overheating a component, including short and long term effects like oxide scale formation, bulging, and cracking. It also mentions problems that can be caused by using incorrect materials, like creep; deposits on waterside surfaces; hydrogen embrittlement leading to grain boundary cracks; and various types of corrosion from coal ash, oil ash, and low temperatures. Fatigue cracks and thermal fatigue due to inadequate flexibility are additional issues covered.
