Comparative evaluation of creep response of X20 and P91 steam piping networks in operation

Salifu, Smith; Desai, Dawood A.; Kok, Schalk (Springer, 2020-08)

The geometrical increase in the demand for electrical energy has posed serious pressure on the power generation components such as the steam pipes due to the consequential increase in the operating parameters such as ...
Creep-fatigue interaction of P91 steam piping subjected to typical start-up and shutdown cycles

Salifu, Smith; Desai, Dawood A.; Kok, Schalk (Springer, 2020-06)

The possibility of creep–fatigue interaction occurring in steam pipes of power generation plants during operation has been on the front burner for years. Often, failure of the pipes during operation is attributed to either ...
Prediction and comparison of creep behavior of X20 steam plant piping network with different phenomenological creep models

Salifu, Smith; Desai, Dawood A.; Kok, Schalk (Springer, 2020-11)

In service, steam pipes are subjected to high temperature close to 0.4 Tm (melting temperature) or higher and pressure; thus, making them prone to failure due to creep. Often, the design methods for these steam pipes usually ...
