Review of common failures in heat exchangers – Part I: Mechanical and elevated temperature failures
Abstract
This study provides an overview of the common modes and causes of failure of heat exchanger tubes. Failure investigations of heat exchangers reported in the literature are compiled in this review based on the mechanisms of failure. A large majority of heat exchanger components fail by way of fatigue, creep, corrosion, oxidation, and hydrogen attack. Most common causes of failure include fouling, scaling, salt deposition, weld defects, and...
