Abstract
Low-pressure industrial boiler tubes are subject to a variety of corrosion and degradation problems. Cases and examples are described that include tube failures by pitting, corrosion fatigue and metal overheating. Careful testing and evaluation can lead to identification of the root cause(s) of these problems, and permit long-term reliable operation.
