EXPERI ENCE COUNTS Foster Wheeler has Engineered and Designed 25.5 GWe of steam generation equipment over the past 100 years WHY CONDI TI ON ASSESSMENT? Units are being cycled daily due to legislation amd environmental regulations High cost of accelerated damage due to cycle fatigue Decreased maintenance budgets and reduced outage schedules Average age of steam generating assets is over 30 years Foster Wheeler has the experience and resources to implement comprehensive Boiler Condition Assessment Programs Each steam generator is inherently different and requires a customized approach to determine those methods that will be most cost-effective. Double Reheat PC Boiler HRSG CFB Package Boiler Waterwalls Downcomers Steam Drums SH, RH, ECONTubes Headers Critical Piping Boiler Structure and Supports Flues and Ducts Burners A plan is prepared after a thorough review of the plants operations (both current and historical). As time permits, both a hot and cold walkdown should be performed. Level I Condition Assessment involves detailed visual inspection techniques, simple NDE methods (MT, PT, UTT) and measurement tools to determine if more detailed analysis is required. The components generally inspected are: Level II Conditon Assessment Based on the fndings observed during a Level I inspection, more advanced NDE techniques and sampling are utilized, which include: Remote Visual Inspection Surface Replications Advanced UT UTOxide Thickness WFMT High Temperature Strain Gages Hardness/PMI Metallurgical and Oxide analysis of Tube Samples Typical Steam Generators Level I Conditon Assessment Performance Enhancements/ Engineering Studies Detailed Visual Inspection of Pressure Parts with Standard NDE Advanced NDE Services Metallurgical Examinations Remaining Life Assessment Advanced Engineering Analysis Review Current/ Historical Operational & Performance Data Review All Changes/Updates to Boiler Perform Hot and Cold Walkdowns Goals Reliability Availability Reduced EFOR* Managed Risks Level 1 Level II Level III Repeat Process Level III Conditon Assessment When it is imperative to have a comprehensive timeframe for the remaining life of a component, or when Engineered Solutions are needed, Advanced Engineering Analysis should be employed. These services include: EPRI Remaining Life Software Tools: TULIP, BLESS, Creep-Fatigue Pro Finite Element Analysis Stress Analysis Fracture Mechanics Performance Based Engineering Studies CONDITION ASSESSMENT Program Cycle Whether your needs are simple or complex, short-term or long-term, Foster Wheeler has the experience and time-tested technical experts to provide your company with Value Added information and lasting solutions to your problems.
