Troubleshooting, Inspection, and Root Cause Analysis of Air Preheater Problems
This service provides design analysis and troubleshooting of the following air preheater problems:
Corrosion
Vibration/Sawing
Fly Ash Deposits
Basket Overpressure
Leaking and Damaged Seals
Performance of Soot Blowing
The above troubleshooting and analytical services are provided for the tubular recuperative type and regenerative (Lungstrom) type air preheaters with any type of fill material (carbon steel, ceramic coated, other). Damage has been experienced due to excessively high or low flue gas temperatures, high soot blower steam flows, generating shock wave, inducing vibration, and overpressurizing the baskets, and wear and other damage of seals.
