Abstract

Abstract The growth and exfoliation of thermally grown oxides, or scales, in steam power plants is a complex phenomenon that depends on alloy composition, microstructure (including surface condition), temperature, pressure, and plant operation. This article discusses the factors that contribute to oxide scale buildup in ultrasupercritical boiler tubes and ongoing efforts to mitigate problems due to steam-side oxidation and exfoliation in high-efficiency power plants.
