Target Plate Impacts

Consulting About Steam Blowing A few days ago, we were consulted about a very interesting case that I would like to share my opinion as it would be useful for engineers involved with commissioning: Can carryovers and/or water droplets affect the target plate during steam blowing? Yes indeed. Carryovers can affect final results, specifically magnetite

Flow Accelerated Corrosion

FAC Corrosion

FAC Corrosion When a steel surface is in contact with water under specific chemical and thermodynamic conditions, an oxide protective layer of magnetite (Fe3O4) is developed. Controlling the growth mechanism, the morphology and the solubility of such corrosion product it is possible to minimize the risk of failure and extend the life-time of the plant.
