Steam Cooled & WW tubes
may experience Short Term
Over Heating failures at
locations that:
1. Have become plugged with
debris, scale or condensate
from incomplete boilout.*
2. Have exposure to high heat
flux from improper firing of fuel
burners.
3. Have experienced low coolant
flow due to poor circulation or
upstream tube leak.
*If the plugged tube is primarily
made of austenitic steel the
failure may occur in the ferritic
portion at the outlet stub.
