Flow Accelerated Corrosion (FAC): |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Monitoring piping systems for FAC continues to be an important issue for utility companies. Pipe wall thinning due to FAC has resulted in leaks and ruptures in primary and secondary piping systems when not identified at an early stage. Ultrasonic examinations are typically used to detect and monitor FAC in electric power generating plants. The examination process includes removal of insulation, the layout of an inspection grid, acquisition of thickness measurements, and input of the data into an evaluation program. |
