Reliability & Engineering Risk Analysis

Failure Mode & Root Cause
Thermal fatigue cracking
Cause: Cyclic heating and cooling causing expansion/contraction stresses, often due to rapid temperature changes, poor temperature control, or inadequate thermal expansion accommodation in design.
Corrosion and scaling
Cause: Chemical attack from process fluids or combustion byproducts, combined with mineral deposition from water/steam, accelerated by high temperatures, improper material selection, or inadequate water treatment.
Maintenance Indicators
  • Visible hot spots or discoloration on heater surfaces indicating uneven heating or insulation failure
  • Unusual combustion noises (pulsing, rumbling) or visible flame instability in fired heaters
Engineering Tips
  • Implement gradual startup/shutdown procedures with controlled ramp rates to minimize thermal shock and stress accumulation
  • Establish regular water/fluid quality monitoring and treatment program to control scaling and corrosion, combined with periodic infrared thermography surveys
