Localized Corrosion in Alloy Steel of Steam Turbines

Article Preview

Abstract:

The development of effective localized corrosion damage prediction methods is essential for the successful avoidance of unscheduled downtime in steam turbines. It is reported that damage in steam turbines initiates in highly localized areas, most commonly at corrosion pits that act as stress raisers. Therefore, the evaluation of pits distribution and depth is necessary.
